I'll give Ryuki credit for one thing, the main hero remains good throughout. I hope Gaim does this too.

I enjoyed it. Not as much as Fourze or Wizards first eps, but the latter I lost interest in under half way through. So yeah, first impression don't count for much, although episode 1 of Fourze I watched like 5 times as i couldn't get enough of it =p
Anyway, things I liked: The riders costumes/suits are still awesome. Love those designs. Always dig it when the rider has no clue, makes them feel more human. Magic fruit lock monster battles! EDIT: oh and that epic hoo ha chant stuff before the henshin.. awesome! stuff I disliked: The really boring dancing. The main Inbess/invess/whatever design was pretty boring. Next weeks looks better though, so there's that. Mystical Mai looked like a cheap cosplayer. |

That was a good start off. It does have a Ryuki feel to it so far and I like how Kouta learned to use his powers.

Well that was certainly a lot of fun, but I don't feel I got enough from that episode to really make an opinion. It sorta felt like loads of Rider shows smashed together, which is a difficult thing to pull off well, but I think the show managed it with one of the rare times a toku budget and the creators ambitions seem to have met in the middle. Although that DJ was ridiculously annoying.
That doesn't mean though, that I am entirely convinced. The opening episode is a crucial one, it needs to hook an audience and make them come back, so riding tried and tested ideas and wrapping it up in a glossy package functioned perfectly in this context. But I just hope in twenty episodes down the line, where the show needs to provide something deeper than just surface flash and thrills, it will have found its feet and some unique ideas of its own, which aren't just toy focused.

Loved it. Bright, colourful and lots of fun but with definite hints of some underlying serious stuff. Very eager to see more.
(You won't get me saying "juicy" though. Never :P)

Den-O, but only in the very early episodes. There was a bird Imagin that would drop people from high in the sky. And that's fairly light compared to an earlier show like Agito (which had people shoved into trees).
