This whole episode felt like how Revice is going to be going forward, going back to MOTWs and civilians, but also having it be Saber-focused since it's Saber's. It's great! So good to see Touma and co. finally interact with the outside world.
I feel really bad for Rintarou here, I feel like he's been on a terrible streak of trying to tell Mei something for the past year but some ungodly force is keeping him until this very moment. He's hilarious, like he lost a few IQ in here. Touma and Kento still showing why they're childhood and it's great to see their brotherly bond. Saber starts how it ends, with these two (three technically). Of course we're going to see more of them, what with the beginning scene having Sophia say there are still some missing WRBs. ReVice come to make an appearance! Aside from the, uh, awkward fart jokes, they're already winning me over with their hilarity. Tho, I do hope it gets toned down in the show proper, since it's not gonna be great if this keeps up endlessly. And then Rintarou gets to confess, finally! Well, not properly, but he's got the spirit! And Yuri can see Vice, that's very interesting. I'm really gonna miss Saber. The cast really won me over. |

There goes Saber’s beautiful sword play. We’ll back to random punch punch smack smack with Revice. Oh well.
Felt off wit Vice’s fart jokes, simply not my cup of tea. Maybe The kids will find it funny, tho. Thanks god its counted as special episode, not Saber’s final (not like what happen with W’s final. The feeling when Philip take off the extreme memory before disapearing is too good to be ruined by their reunion in the next episode, imo) idk if i’ll excited every week for this next year. But well, this is the same tough that i havw when Saber’s start.

Guess that's why Vice wears a facemask

I saw the thumbnail of mad Reika and sighed. But that's not why I'm here. No, I'm here to see the introduction of our new protagonists, Ikki and Vice, the collective Kamen Rider Revice. I'm also here for the Rintarou/Mei of course.
Ikki's high energy is pretty good and more or less what I expected from a Rider with such a big teeth grin. He's also the more heroic of the two, as stated in his bio, which means he'll be easier to sympathize with. Vice is more vulgar than I expected though, a devil should at least have basic manners right? Good thing Revice Rex is Vice in Revi's a** and not the other way around. The pink and black dino duo are totally overshadowed by George though! That guy's awesome and charismatic with how excited he is to see the Riders in action and I hope he also becomes a Rider in the future, preferably a Tertiary Rider. I think he could reach Woz levels of popularity. IWAE! I appreciate how Ryouga has developed in to more levelheaded person who is willing to acknowledge Rintarou's merits as a potential successor to Master Logos. He's still a wasted character but otherwise a generally likable guy. It's nice how Mei gets the last laugh on Reika this way, since Ryouga smiled at her. There's the karma I've been waiting for. The Rintarou/Mei was great, especially with them wearing matching blue colors at the end. Maybe they'll be married in the recently announced Trio of Deep Sin, since Fukuda really likes developing those relationships in sequels. Touma and Kento both seem happier now as well. The promise those four made finally came true.

Overall a nice bookend to Saber as a whole. But I'm dreading the inevitble who the real secondary Rider Blades or Espada lol.
Also it nice that George specifies that Ikki needs to collect these specefic 10 Vistamps. Since I get the feeling much like ZI-O were not going to see all of them used so to limit the Vistamps that going to be important enough tp be specfic means these are the one were getting forms for.

I'm curious how reflective of Revice this crossover is, I remember in the last episode of Ghost with the ex-aid crossover it felt like Fukuda was only given very vague bullet points about Ex-Aid and didn't really have a sense of what the show was going to be
I'm sort of assuming it's the same here, (tho this ep was written by Hiroki Uchida not Fukuda, like the ghost one). I feel like it's hard to get a sense of what a show will be until we see something actually written by the head writer of that show, though I liked the energy from Ikki's actor, he seems fun, I also liked how lively Vice's suit actor was, very energetic and silly I hope Vice doesn't fart (or at least not this much) in the actual show... Hopefully that was just smth Hiroki Uchida thought would be funny and it'll stay just in this episode, because I'd really rather not have that be a recurring joke.... On the whole I thought this episode was cute, but a bit of a passive experience. Maybe it's because last week's episode (the actual finale) was so strong that this just felt a bit lacking to me? It was fun though, and I'm excited to see the v-cinema in May Overall Saber was fun, and I'll miss it, it's hard to quantify but I had a lot of affection for it! It's also been such a hectic year that having Saber every week felt like it added a sense of consistency that I appreciated. In a year that sort of feels like it's lasted an eternity for me it also just feels extra strange that the show is over! Like other's have said the sword based choreography was really cool too, hopefully Revice manages to make it's choreography stand out, I sort of hope we get another series with a specific weapon/battle-type focus again sometime, I think it worked out well for Saber P.S. Did we know before this that Buster was taking classes to become a teacher? That felt sort of out of nowhere to me, but maybe I just forgot? Last edited by TheJaz; 08-29-2021 at 08:19 PM.. |

Okay, I think this is the most I've enjoyed Kamen Rider since, like, Zi-O. Everything about Revice so far is so high-energy and wild and, fart jokes aside I really hope that translates into the series proper! I think I might just have a great time with this

Oh yeah, did anyone else notice that the Bata Vistamp in this episode was missing Ichigo's face? It was also totally opaque rather than somewhat transparent like the ones Ikki uses
I wonder if in Revice all of Ikki's Vistamps all come from deadmans orginally, and George just repurposed them and added the rider references after they were/are collected from a deadmans? (For example, maybe the Megalodon Vistamp came from a shark themed Deadmans originally, and then George repurposed it to work with the Revice Driver, and added the Decade aesthetic at the same time?) George also seemed to be hoping that one of the 10 Vistamps we already know about would come out of this deadmans, so it seems to add up. Maybe we know how George develops the Vistamps already? I honestly can't remember Like, maybe it's nothing, but the rest of the Vistamps we see in the episode all have the rider faces and the transparent plastic, so it seems like it's intentional that the Bata one was both from a deadmans and was lacking the Ichigo face and transparent colour, while the toy (and i think the one in the trailer too?) have the Ichigo face and transparent colour (and that all the one's from Fenix have the faces too) Last edited by TheJaz; 08-29-2021 at 05:58 PM.. |
