Nope, Gunner A was in the original show. Some additional firepower Shroud created for Accel that was literally only used for one episode more than likely due to the budget needed to render it on-screen since it was exclusively CGI.

The fact that this series bothered to bring it back floored me.

This was a pretty solid way to end off the first season. Artillery A coming back was a great surprise, and Tokime really took a big step towards coming into her own.

With the reveal that she's not actually the Joker Dopant, I do now have two hunches about where her story might go, but I'll wait until season 2 comes around before saying anything, since I feel like we're for sure gonna get one.

That said, despite how the episode ended, I don't think we're gonna get an animated version of Begins Night in full, unless the episode that does so shows us some background details that happened during that night which pertain specifically to Fuuto PI's' plot.

But yeah, overall, season 1, while I felt it hit a few bumps here and there, was overall enjoyable. Gonna wait until the show overall is all said and done before giving any sort of big final thoughts/rating though.

Until next time!

Apparently it's last appearance was in Movie War Ultimatum.

I've seen some speculation that the reason she doesn't have a port is because she, as an executive in Bando's organization, probably had a Gaia Driver to transform with.

That would make sense, and if they went with that it'd be fine. I just wouldn't mind something with a bit more spice to it, so to speak.

Man, I completely forgot that Terui had that tank thing. I'm still a little disappointed we didn't get to see his yellow form, but I appreciate this deep cut.

On the whole, I enjoyed this show and I'm definitely a little bummed that it's already over. Hopefully it did well enough that we get a second season or, at the very least, that someone picks up translating the manga again.

It's funny that Accel Booster was in the OP unlike FangJoker and Xtreme but never actually showed up.

I kept expecting them to add FangJoker and Xtreme after their debuts but they never did.

This season is over but the story definitely isn't yet, as Bando's still out there. The final boss for now is Reactor Dopant.

That Tokime's mountain of questions at the end just screams "watch Kamen Rider W for the answers" as an answer, no 4th wall breaking though.

Stage Show Poster:

You can see a live version of Bando, as well as Jinno (very similar to the actor from W) and Makura, as well as new characters to stage. W's costume is also shown, although not completely. I wonder if it was made especially for the play or did Toei borrow it from their stock?

The actor doesn't just look similar to the show actor HE is the same actor from W.

Really? I did not know that. For some reason it seemed to me that his nose was wider, but, apparently, I need to take into account the past years. Well, that's all the more wonderful then.
