Considering Inoue hasn't been let near Kamen Rider since Core, I'd say chances are good he won't

Well what do you know, Beast might actually be what saves this show for me.

I'm still warming up to the design (although seeing it in action has made me appreciate it a lot more), but I'm already loving the character. He's an excellent foil to Haruto in both beliefs and personality, even if he has a weird mayonnaise fetish.

This is a very good start!

So I'm actually up to date for a change.. my thoughts:

I already liked beasts design, it in action is even better. The belt sucks, but the overall aesthetic I like. As for character wise he's alright. I like that he's rather care free and a bit cocky.

Wouldn't it be cool if Haruto actually took the douche baggy route? The amount of times he harps on about being the only one who can fight the phantoms and give people hope... it'd be nice if Beast actually ended up causing Haruto to fall into despair a bit. y'know stealing his lime light and what not. I know he said he wouldn't but it looks like they're going to have their compulsory heroes first meeting fight, so who knows.

The dart board of gimmicks can be a harsh mistress.

I can see Haruto getting a bit pissed at beast for not taking the Phantoms as seriously as he does/treating it like a game. This is just based of my impressions of Beast in this episode though but it wouldn't be a bad way to cause conflict.

A harsh mistress, indeed

Well, got up to this point. Didn't really like the show... but, for some reason. Intro to beast? Made it a bit watchable.
