Yes. I'd love to see more evil Riders.

Shiro Kazami was found by Ichigo and Nigo after being attacked by one of Destron's monsters, and rebuilt him into V3 after he begged them while he was on the verge of death.

I think Sentai's only seen the First/Next movies, where V3's origin was different.

I don't really know how I feel about evil Riders. I can't stand when they're just relegated to being evil like the main villains are; there's a certain aspect of it being a Rider that makes it different. I guess someone like Sasword or (what I've seen of) Chalice, who think what they're doing is right, while they're ultimately acting against themselves, is the best way to go, but I don't think it's ever been done as I exactly want it. I also prefer it when they're established and not just out of nowhere like Dark Kabuto; Shadow Moon was cool, but he was just evil because, y'know, evil.

I call it stupid because they dragged it on way too much, then Airi reveals she was aware of everything all along, then it doesn't resolve, and then it takes up the another movie just to finish up in the painfully boring Episode Red.

Yea. I never watched the original Kamen Rider or V3, just the rebooted movies. Which I loved completely.

Evil Riders? Yes.

Evil repaint riders? Maybe, provided there's actually a decent story behind it and not just "because dark".

[Starscreamer]

I'm the opposite...I love an evil Rider, especially when they are a mid season "whoa" moment...It helps define the hero after all. With Ryuki, the fact he had to face those of about the same power level made a difference.

I think Dark Riders is more of a concept that could be worked into a Rider show's lore rather then Black Repaint. The Dinosaur Greed could be considered a Dark Rider/ Counterpart to Eiji since they had opposite motives and goals but had the same thread of no desires. Or with Wizard, there could be a Haruto in Magic Land that went into Despair and created a Dragon Phantom, not necessarily an "Dark" Rider but more cleverly put in.

That's not a "Dark rider."
That's just a villain...
