Lmao, don't worry it's not a "One More Day", thing. Think more like Ghost Rider, but your bonus is a dino friend.

Again, don't plan to watch this due to toku burnout (or at the very least not gonna bother following it weekly) but I can imagine Vice, the demon, being a Faustian character that whispers sinister suggestions to Revi outside and during combat.
Although I am not a fan of 'making a deal with the devil' stories, I do acknowledge the fact that it references the original Kamen Rider show using an 'evil powers to fight evil' motif (although I would argue demons have a more evil connotation compared to biomechanical powers); a fitting theme for the 50th anniversary of Kamen Rider. At this point I'm just here for the henshin sounds lol.

You know it absolutely just hit me, but the whole drone pterodactyl thing with Vice or whatever that happens...
I think we found our way to get past like... our Kamen Rider not riding anything? Like if they need vehicle scenes then we can just have green screen of that happening. |

Oh they hired the racist guy again....
to voice a main character this time.... God dammit. _________________ A SERIOUS PSA For anyone who doesn't know Subaru Kimura has made posts mocking people's culture before, and also done full on black face I don't really wanna have a big argument about "what is considered appropriate in Japan" because I've already seen people make that argument today and it just has me in a grumpy mood. So I'll leave that topic at, even if one thinks this is somehow appropriate when done in Japan that obviously shouldn't make it morally okay to do on an individual moral level, racism can always harm others, it's bad to mock entire cultures and races... Even outside of all that, just from a business perspective this is smth toei should care about, they're trying to push rider in the west more than ever before, and this is 100% the type of decision that would get people to boycott their productions... ...Imagine if Revice is the first series they try to simul sub, the show will get a bunch of traction, then a lot of people will hear about this, and they'll be swarmed with letters and tweets about it, it just seems like a bad move from all perspectives Here's a source too, content warning: racism, blackface, self-disfigurment https://twitter.com/HoneySo4/status/...535163904?s=19 I do wanna stress I'm not judging anyone who's gonna watch the show anyways, its not like most people here watch the show in a way that would financially support this guy, you can watch the show and even enjoy it, no sweat off my back, I'm probabaly still going to watch it unless this man's presence just makes me too uncomfortable personally, but I don't have bad will against those who can separate the character from the actor I would like to politely ask everyone to please consider avoiding supporting this guy on social media or financially, if you think someone's behaviour is crappy you don't owe them your support even if you like a show they're in If you disagree with anything or even everything I've said feel free to tell me if you like, but like I said i don't feel like arguing so I might not respond, this is mostly just a PSA for anyone who cares Last edited by TheJaz; 07-22-2021 at 10:26 AM.. |

I don't really care about what actors do or don't do.
The asthetics so far doesn't seem too appealing to me, so I'll give it a few episodes to see if it's worth keep watching it.

Vice being a contracted demon who fights with Revi reminds me of Shin Megami Tensei. Might also have some OOO/Den-O vibes where the central plot is Revi and Vice growing closer together through their battles and Vice learning to appreciate humans.
And Vice is basically multiple vehicles? The bike and a paraglider? Maybe more? The Main Rider being into baths will probably offer up some nice fanservice for the ladies...unless he continually just does it in his Rider form. The villains are an institute that use demons like Vice? Quote:
Revice’s first appearance has Kougami give them a birthday cake lmao

Ikki my friend, why have you sold your soul to the devil?!
So basically Ryuki, if Dragreder was a Rider. Interesting concept. inb4 the Rider is a Sentai meme starts again, haha. The name Revice turns out to be a portmanteau of the two Primary Riders, Revi and Vice. So they're collectively known as Revice. Vice doesn't look much like a Rider, but hey, if Saikou and Lazer pass as Riders, then sure, why not! I'm glad to see a fresh new writer, the first of the Reiwa Era. Hopefully this Kinoshita guy can write an entertaining story about dinosaurs and devils. Man, these motifs are reminding me more and more of the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West which I'm very excited for. Quote:
Also, I think you should have added a self-disfigurement warning. Some people can be squeamish about that.

with how racist is thrown around nowadays I would expect something misunderstood as racist but the dude did actual blackface. kind of impossible to see the possibility of him just being interested in a race's culture and not understanding blackface is racist. at least he isn't a leader of a certain western country that did blackface in the past. of all people to be the 50th rider's secondary....

Interesting that the known cast so far is having 2 member of the main protag's family that are not "old people" like an uncle/aunt or a grandpa. Igarashi Daiji and Igarashi Sakura. So I guess brother and sister of the protag.
funny enough their last name "Igarashi" is made with the kanjis for five, ten (okay I get it) and storm. Ikki (protag) is made with "one" and "brilliance" Daiji is made with "big" and "two" and Sakura is obviously the flower. I wonder if Daiji having 2 in his name is actually a sign of him being our second rider. There is 2 other character announced. George Karizaki and someone named Olteka/Orteka that sounds like a vilain general name. Last edited by Omnikaiser; 07-22-2021 at 09:51 AM.. |
