I've been curious about this topic ever since I finished Kamen Rider Kuuga awhile back and, among other ideas for video discussions on the franchise, was curious about what moments across the now 50 year old franchise might've had an effect on other people in the fandom.
These can range from mildly startling to "well, I'm not sleeping tonight", so I'm interested to hear what you guys might have and where those moments might fall in that spectrum.
For me personally, the moment that comes to mind/inspired this discussion was the home invasion scene from Episode 35 of Kamen Rider Kuuga titled "Emotion". Again, not anything ground breakingly terrifying but going in, much like the drastic difference with Kuuga itself compared to many of it's successors, I was impressed by how effective and atmospheric the scene was when Go-Jaraji-Da was hunting the last of his victims in his own home. Something about the relatively quiet moment with faint glimpses of Jaraji skulking around in his human form, circling his prey while the family tries to keep their son calm, leaving us waiting for Godai to make it to their house and hopefully arrive in time to save them.
Granted, the scene itself didn't cost me any sleep or anything but the fact that "intentionally" scary moments in the franchise up until this point failed to have any effect when in this scene, seeing Go-Jaraji pop up in his human form in their home made me jump said something to me personally about how effective it was.
That and it lead to one of the more brutal "fights" in the series and what, to me personally, is still the most effective bit of foreshadowing for the hero's final form. All around, a fantastic scene that led to an ever greater moment in a season that I had already adored to that point and one with a surprising lingering effect.
