A shame but honestly I if had to axe one combo I would have axed that combo too.

Wasn't ShaUTa introduced after both TaJaDor and PuToTyra, anyway?

After TaJaDor, at least. I haven't seen PuToTyra in the show yet.

Pretty much all of Eiji's forms went underused, the gimmick of the combos and swapping parts of himself for different powers was a really great one, but the sheer number of parts that were only used once was almost as ridiculous as how the dinosaur form was used for like half the show, while other forms were only used a handful of times. TaJaDor especially surprised me, in how shafted it got, considering it was probably the most important form, storywise, and if I remember correctly it was only used like four times over the course of the whole season.

Wow, episode 47 of Black has to be one of the all-time great Kamen Rider episodes. Just brilliant all around.

The Black/Shadow Moon dynamic is why everyone remembers this series and deservedly so, its just a massive shame that it had to start so late into the show.

Just watched ep4 of Kiva, and learned more about Otuya. He was a freeloading womanizer, but he was a freeloading womanizer who had a good heart

Though how the woman he rebuked became a Fangaia I don't know yet.. Something I'm hoping they'll explain.

Kuuga 15: I think I finally figured out what bugs me about Kuuga. There's a disconnect between the actor and the suit actor. I don't know if it is because Godai is lacking any characteristic motions or what, but I just don't buy they're the same person as I do with the later series.

that is one of my many problems with kuuga. They dont match up physically anyway but Godai doesn't even try and bridge a gap. He never mentions, or reacts, to the suit stuff and thanks to super healing his injuries never cross over.

The show's whole ending arc, which starts around 46, I think, with the death of Bishuum, is fantastic. The show drops the episodic structure and it becomes this really dark and engaging serialized story. Prepare to have your heart broken at least twice.

That's not a unique problem to Kuuga. Agito, Faiz, and Kiva all have that issue, too, to an extent. I think Kiva is the worst, though, with shy, emo Wataru turning into the aggressive and often brutal Kiva.

I just finished Kuuga 16 the other day and really enjoyed the more development with Ichijou and learning that the things Yuusuke grabs transform back after he does too. I love the bug armor for his motorcycle too it just looks awesome. I don't really see the same problems with Yuusuke and the Suit actor honestly he feels like a guy that is super excited about being Kuuga that anything that comes with it wouldn't phase him. All the Kamen Riders have really different styles I love that some of the quiet ones have the most aggressive styles like Wataru and Kagami.

Watched Faiz 17 and have to say this was my favorite episode for Takumi, great lines and great play off between him and Yuuji going through similar yet different circumstances. Also defeating two Orphenochs when they are double teaming you is quite badass.

Yuusuke and Takumi are quickly becoming some of my new favorites. However my favorite Riders list is way to freaking long already and I've only watched 6 series all together and about 34 chapters of the Spirits manga.
