If I had one gripe with the show it would be Shadow Moon. For all the build up he got during the show he didnt really do all that much. He just stood around most of the time talking about how he will fight Black but never actually doing it

Anyway I liked the show but its definitely not in my all time favorites.

My biggest gripe was not that SHadow Moon did not do too much, but his pointless guards. What was the point of Luna and Mara when they didn't even do anything but stand there? It's like the writers forgot they even existed because they just disappear.

I do think not having Moon turn into Nobuhiko more than once was a major missed opportunity.

Because I wanted closure and I like watching the AU movies. Unfortunately I learned the error of my ways. It's the worst piece of Kamen Rider and maybe even tokusatsu I have ever, EVER seen.

Yeah, I'm sure you have seen how much of a Blade fan I am and even I think it is one of the worst KR movies of all time.

It was so terrible. I only did a little review of it but I could go on, and on, and on with how terrible it is. From a stupid cliched story, to plot holes, there is so much wrong with the movie.

It's plot starts off promising with them having to reseal all of the cards and a new Joker with a bit of a rider war thrown in. But then it has this stuff about Joker basically body swapping and how Amane has to be killed because her father did some seal and this apparently makes her the only one to be sacrificed. What the actual fuck? You were doing just fine with the "Reseal everything with some rider fighting" plot, you don't need this sacrificial crap. Plus if the four king cards were needed to make the sacrificial card, how the hell did Kenzaki get it back to turn into King Form? And how come some of the Category Kings can't talk in human like they could in the show? The story is a mess by the halfway point and is brought down by an actual plothole. The only thing positive I can say about the plot is that it is paced rather nicely, but not even that saves it from how shit it is.

The action was once again good and like the show is the only truly good/great thing about the film. The effects are slightly improved but they still aren't great looking, and that CGI isn't fooling anybody. The music was good again and the acting wasn't terrible and the suits were pretty cool looking, except for the new green rider, his was terrible.

So yeah, Missing Ace was an utter disappointment for me. Once again I know these movies aren't going to be as good as the show, but we have examples that they can be as good and even better such as Paradise Lost. This film however just stunk. The story gets stupid by the end and the ending itself concludes because of one big plothole, and it neglects some of the aspects of the show. Only the action makes it enjoyable (that and seeing pimp Kotarou) with everything else just being pretty bad. I'd rewatch the show but this is something I don't think I ever want to see again. Critically I give it a 2. On a personal enjoyment level, I'll give it 2, the extra half being for having one of my favorite suits in it.

And now I am finally completely 100% done with Blade. The verdict stands, not a bad ride with the show, the movie sucks, I appreciate the characters behind the suits I like, but the feeling after finishing everything is meh for the show and blehh for the movie.

Yeah it's my least favorite movie I've watched from Kamen Rider.

Yeah those two confused the hell out of me

I was waiting the whole time for them to engage in battle with Kotaro but they never did.

KyoryuGreen · 07-05-2014, 05:24 AM

Black Episode 20: That was a great plan by the Golgom Priests by trying to use Kotaro's kind heart against him, too bad they failed by getting involved. Though I think Kotaro would have called their bluff anyways because Yukari would have died if he died too. I'm so happy Battle Hopper didn't get forgotten, I love his use. I hope we get more Birugenia because he is a better villain than the Priests to me. Great to see Kotaro fight normally more too. I love good subtitles because they definitely make watching the Showa Era shows very enjoyable.
