That was producer Ohmori's decision and he's not touching Geats. Please don't blame Takahashi for that!

Okay, so I kinda love Yuya Takahashi, there's writers I would have liked to see more buuuuuuuuuuut.... I was big into Ex-Aid when it was airing, and while I feel like it doesn't hold up to a rewatch the best, it still has a special place in my heart (it's also probably the series where I bought the most toys, I have every DX non-prototype gashat that appeared in the show EXCEPT for Mighty Doctors which I still might impulse buy on ebay someday lol... plus a couple Protype ones [including the original Proto Mighty Action X], and also Pac Adventure for fun) And Zero-One I thought was mostly great, I feel like it had some mixed metaphors that landed sort of weird, but I think a lot of Zero-One's biggest problems came from Covid-19 totally messing up the pace of the show's ending (and also possibly the producer meddling). Still Zero-One is a show where (for the most part) I love the start of the show and the final arc, but feel sort of meh on the middle I think Takahashi's writing was generally improved in Zero-One, and I feel like if he takes all of his experience, and (hopefully) doesn't get screwed over by the pandemic again... This show could be really great. At the very least I expect it to be full of big spectacle moments and an interesting tone I do know Ex-Aid and Zero-One are very much shows that aren't to everyone's tastes though, so I'd be curious to know how other people are feeling about Takahashi? Also, the first Director listed did more EPs for Wizard than anything else, which excites my bc Wizard has a great visual style tbh A different producer from Ex-Aid and Zero-One also has me VERY excited, OOO and Gaim (her two most recently head produced shows) are some pretty fun shows imo, so call me hyped all around Last edited by TheJaz; 07-21-2022 at 03:53 PM.. |

I'm really getting a kind of...dark vibe from this show? Like focusing on "desires" again kind of like the demons in Revice, and Riders competing with each other to the point where their heroism is for points and not for the sake of altruism. The Rider isn't a happy-go-lucky everyman but someone unsatisfied with their life.
Even the visual is different with Geats standing ominously with his gun. I wasn't expecting Takahashi to come back. The premise actually reminds me a lot of the early episodes of Ex-Aid so that kind of tracks? It'll be interesting to see how different this is from Ex-Aid and Zero-One, especially with Takebe at the helm of a Rider show again. |

Okay, I'm willing to give Takahashi another spin at the Rider wheel. Also having Takebe with him will probably help things feel different in some ways. So here's hoping we get some good stuff.

Takebe hasn't been a main producer since Gaim, so it's kind of nice to see her back.

Assuming the half-and-half motif is returning, it looks like the top half is based on a fox while the bottom is motorcycle? Either way, loving the suit design and weapon and can't wait for an SHF

I'm almost mad that I'm excited by the staff and the suit now, it increases the odds this show is going to hurt my wallet.... I'm a sucker for toys from shows I like
Really wanna see the trailer now, the mix of the writer, producer, and head director really make me want to see the visual vibe of the show |

Other things I've noticed: The gun looks amazing, complete with a little fox tail! The engine feet are something I'm now just noticing, and I too feel like he might be like Accel, as his own bike or something, and I can somewhat see how the suit splits into two, or how the armor gimmick works. (Looks like OOO hit something to make desires a recurring thing, unless that's just the Driver's name and not actually indicative of the theme) I'm definitely excited for Geats! |
