Yeah I can see why people are worried about it. Anytime they try and do a more mystical approach to a Rider it doesn't quiiiite pan out (lest we forget Wizard wasn't super...) And the gimmick items being books is fun and different, but I'm wondering if kids will go for it?
Either way, suits seem pretty cool! Blades makes so much more sense than Blaze, so already I'm happier haha. So do we have 6 riders and 5 names, or am I misreading it? |

Looks like it'll be an interesting season.

Rintaro has potential I think especially now that we know there is a chance Touma will probably use his vulnerability towards sweets to somehow make him do some goofy stuff possibly.

More than Sentai actually, this is reminding a lot of Ryukendo or Justirisers. Everything I've seen and heard so far has just given me the vibes not of Kamen Rider but just more of a general tokusatsu that's inspired by the likes of Rider. It's for that reason that I'm feeling more uncertain or neutral on all these promotions than straight-up excited, but I'd love for this show to sweep me off my feet all the same.

I can kind of see Kamen Rider Saber as Toei's first real attempt at an Isekai style Kamen Rider.
I mean, sure we had the Mirror World, Helheim Forest, and the video games of Ex-Aid, but this is an entirely separate fantastical world. As far as I know, the Isekai genre is still crazy popular.

Huh, it all sounds very interesting. Hard to predict exactly how the series will turn out. I haven't watched Ghost yet, and I know a lot of people dislike it, but I've heard it has a really strong beginning, and that there are definitely people who feel its character writing was really good. I think there's a good chance this series will turn out alright

Yeah I don't know. Maybe it's because who's writing it but I see too many similarities to Ghost. Collecting MacGuffins to grant a wish/grant power, protagonist and secondary Rider are childhood friends with issues, different world - I'm reserving proper judgment until the show is out but the trailer really didn’t help.
The only thing I generally liked was the secondary Rider on an ATV of sorts - has Rider done this before? I find this unique and cool. I'll enjoy seeing it twice and then never again. |

You know, I'm surprised that no one's really commenting on the fact that we're getting a Kamen Rider Blades when we got Kamen Rider Blade already. : P
But honestly? Yea, I'm looking forward to this a lot. Loving the aesthetic and designs of all the Riders (Calibur is especially cool, and I can't wait to see more of Espada and the Rider above Blades in the poster), and the cast seems like a good set of people. And Fukuda isn't a bad writer, considering that the parts of Ghost that he DID write are some of the strongest parts of Ghost, besides Alain's arc (which I don't think he directly wrote). And let's be fair, all writers have had their high and low points. Sanjo's high point was W, his low point (to a lot of people at least, not me) was Kyoryuger. Kobayashi's high point(s) were Den-O and OOOs, her low point (at the time it was released) was Ryuki. Even Inoue's got some good high points with Agito, Faiz, and Jetman, with his low point being Kiva and Hibiki (and Hibiki was basically thrust upon him). |
