Yeah, exactly my thoughts. I hope they won't drop the ball with the story, 3 very good kamen rider shows in a row, that would be unseen since... Kuuga/Agito/Ryuki ?

What about W/OOO/Fourze? All three of those series are fairly well received as I understand. At least on par with Drive.

I'd agree with this. Fourze had some issues, but it was fun as a barrel of space monkeys.

I loved Fourze so much, it was such a feel good show. W and OOO were also amazing

Such a pointless and forced gimmick.

I don't disagree, but I don't think it's something that is necessarily relevant to this episode? Episode 9 takes place immediately after 8, which itself is only a day or two after 7. It does feel pretty pointless when they jump greater amounts of time, especially that month between 4 and 5, but they've slowed down appropriately lately.

Anyway, watching it subbed, one thing really jumped out at me that I find kind of hilarious. Makoto is just standing around leaning on a pillar brooding and when Alan comes around he's like "no way bro i do not have time to spare with you." It's great.

i just dont like pointless fighting with makoto and takeru, i mean if he wants the eyecons from takeru then why doesnt he just say it? i mean what exactly is he trying to gain by just beating him for nothing if takeru doesnt know what's going on?

at least micchi gave a reason of why he turned on kota but with specter and ghost it's like watching dogs fight over nothing.

He has told him repeatedly that he wants to take his Eyecons. And he has taken his Eyecons before. That's what he's trying to do, all the time. Beat him up, make him drop his eyes, and take them. Both are aware of this.

Wasn't episode 8 like 31 days left? Or am I thinking about an earlier one?

Episode 7 was exactly 30 days, by 8 it was down to 27 and in 9 it was 26.

This show keeps getting better. It's so mysterious and interesting. Next week seems like it's going to be interesting when the 15 eyecons are assembled.
