As somone who hasn't seen any Revice, is Movie Wars Century edition (aka Beyond Generations) still understandable? I get the general gist of Ikki and Vice, but that's about it.

To be honest I think all you need is the general gist of Ikki and Vice.
Like Dreamsword didn't have any context for either Saber or Revice but he enjoyed it just fine. |

The way I'd put it is that Beyond Generations straight up isn't a movie about Saber or Revice. None of those characters are really at the emotional core of the plot, and the details of their respective settings don't factor in all that much either. You should be able to follow along just fine without knowing much about either show.

Cool cool, thanks for the responses! I guess I've got no excuse not to watch it then!
(I should really get back into the groove of regular Rider at some point. Maybe with whatever comes after Revice, idk)

I honestly think none of the characters aside from Ikki and Vice actually feel like they're in it?? It's definitely a Century movie, featuring a bunch of guys doing some fights

Well, it's been a while but now I'm back to watching Kamen Rider Black RX and I'm up to its 26th episode.

I'm now up to episode 33 of Kamen Rider Black RX and I got to say, the last several episodes of this series have been pretty good especially Shadow Moon's final appearance and episodes 29 and 30 which is the two-parter that deals with the Crisis Empire taking control of Japan's entire water supply.

Currently up to episode 41 of Kamen Rider Black RX with only six episodes left after this. I should be able to finish this series tomorrow if not today. After that, it would time to open your eyes with Kamen Rider Faiz.

I'm on episode 16 of Den-O. Having a lot of fun, you can really tell this is where the shift in tone and style comes in between early Heisei and late Heisei. The multiple Imagin possessing Ryotaro gimmick is really cool and something I didn't know about before starting, and Hana is one of my favorite Rider assistants/companions. Some of the mechanics of time travel/Imagin are a little unclear to me but I'm enjoying it anyway.

Just watched Beyond Generations. Wasn't a fan. The plot overall was meh, it felt like there was no passion put into this movie, aside from the really good 71 portion. What made it really bad though was partially Hongo being thankful that he was remodeled, which I really didn't feel fit with Ishinomori's idea of being a Rider being a tragic thing, and worst of all, this line:
That's such a horrible message to tell children. It's objectively untrue. There are genuinely evil parents in the world, and I'm sure that some of the kids watching this are going to be hearing this message and feeling like they're a bad child for hating their neglectful or even abusive parent
