It really wasn't. If you look past the poorly aged special effects, the Showa era is far more gruesome and horrifying than anything the Heisei era has to over. There are a lot of episodes, especially in the 70s, that involve people being murdered, melted, dissolved, or transformed into exploding flying squirrels. Compare that to something like Wizard, where the monsters' primary mission is to make people sad.
I've heard that Tackle was actually going to be revived if Stronger hadn't been cancelled at 39 episodes. Not sure how accurate that information is, though. It would have been cool since a revived Tackle would probably meant that the character would have shown up more in later team-ups, but it would have also removed a lot of the emotion and power from her death scene (kind of like how Riderman's original self-sacrifice was cheapened when he just showed up again with no explanation). Yeah I can agree with that. Though the Heisei Era has had gruesome stuff too. Ah that would have been awesome if she would have came back. I wish it wasn't cancelled though.

Stronger Episode 31: Well that's a great way to hide a power up, it wasn't shown in the preview for this episode so that was an awesome surprise. I liked how these CyberDemons of Delza are actually powerful that Stronger needed an upgrade to beat them. Pretty much one of the first Upgrade Forms in the Showa Era, besides the First 2 riders, and X's power up that didn't change his look. I feel so bad for the Misaki family after Yuriko died, feels like her Dad died next and that just sucks after both of them helping Stronger. The Delza army is going to be destroyed by Stronger after this episode. They have no chance now lol. General Shadow is just sending wave after wave of men to try and defeat Stronger here. The Zapp Brannigan/Bane method is an interesting way for him to fight. I still can't wait for all these pawns to get out of the way for the fight between Stronger and Shadow I've been wanting.

Kamen rider Ryuki episode 34 and 13 Riders Special. The story is really progressing in Ryuki. The characters have all changed so much and it's so fun to watch them. Learning more about Shiro Kanzaki is also interesting. I really can't wait to see how it turns out at the end. For the 13 Riders Special, I hqve to say it was probably the worst thing from Kamen Rider I have ever seen. It starte off okay, but the ending was so bad. They just kept on throwing in riders into the battle. Ryuga, Femme, Tiger, and Imperer were just thrown in there with no explanation at all. The double ending thing was kind of cool, but overall it was horrible and very confusing.

Just started my tenth Rider! (though of course i've only finished six...)
Kamen Rider Stronger, episode 1. Decent start. Black Satan's goons look like crap, so...staying on course for Showa. The...armadillo? Thing. Also looked like crap, which...eh. X and Amazon had better kaijin suits. It's nice to see a female character who can actually hold her own, if only for like...a minute. If I understand things correctly this whole damsel-in-distress thing is gonna be a customary thing for Tackle, so that's not awful at all! Well, something is something I suppose. Shigeru doesn't have a good fashion sense. Last edited by barnstenchfartface; 11-17-2015 at 06:23 PM.. |

Finished OOO Wonderful. This being my first KR movie, I had fun with it. Fourze's cameo caught me by complete surprise, but he was the immediate highlight of the movie next to the final battle. I also liked getting to see Eiji briefly becoming Birth (wonder how often that sort of thing happens in KR where a Rider takes another's form). Overall, a solid timekiller.

Most people still refrained from having a giant S on their shirts, though, from my understanding.
And Yuriko looks fine, really. Anyway, episode 2 got me excited for a minute there that Shigeru was a true jerkhole turned hero, which is not really something I've seen in a main Rider, and would have been awesome backstory. But nah, he's every bit the ally of justice the other Showa Riders are, if not more so. Bah, kind of a disappointment. |

I love Shigeru's fashion sense lol. His outfit is awesome.
