As far as Toei is concerned, those basically all fall under the marketable banner of 'dinosaurs' anyway!

Guys, I’ve got a feeling that the Revice as a series will not have dinosaurus as the theme exclusively but that the theme is ancient animals in general. So besides a dinosaur-themed rider maybe there is a mammoth-themed rider, megalodon-themed rider, sabertooth tiger-themed rider, etc.

Have you not seen Ghost, or something? There is no way in hell those two relationships are even remotely comparable beyond the fact that both pairs consist of siblings.
Makoto had plenty of issues and developments beyond Kanon - accentuated by the fact he's the secondary Rider(who debuted very early on) in a series revolving around just three Riders to begin with. Makoto's character doesn't completely hinge on Kanon. I thought the show made that pretty clear, considering she's safe and sound after the first quarter of the show, but Makoto's conflicts only become more complicated afterwards. We're in the endgame of Saber and nothing about Reika nor Ryoga have significantly developed in the past 2 quarters of the show. I know the show isn't over yet, but Reika really has gone backwards, if anything. Props to her actress for making Reika seem at least somewhat threatening in the first quarter, I guess. Honestly, I feel like Reika and Ryoga would benefit from a V-Cinema (or manga like Buster), since unlike Makoto, they're pretty much strictly side Riders rather than main ones. Actually show more of their past, upbringing, stuff like that. I know we're pretty much expecting one for Rintaro and Kento, but I do think that the other Riders are in desperate need of something like what Buster got. |

Which is strange to me, because... if it's about the siscon thing (which I have to assume if the Shindai comparison is being drawn), that was a single 5-second dream sequence that was never brought up or alluded to again. It was very weird and I wish it hadn't happened, but it was very out-of-character and blink-and-you'll-miss-it; otherwise his relationship with her is as a protective big brother

But yea, definitely on me for comparing two relationships that aren't actually alike at all. And again, hoping that out of all the Saber Riders, that Reika and Ryoga will get a V-Cinema that actually details their relationship better than in the show. Honestly it would've been less weird if they had just made the two lovers instead of siblings or something. Or at least childhood friends that rib each other on their off time like how Reika jokes about how cute Ryoga's 'tsundere moments' are. |

Extra Riders were already a thing, but we've gotten 2 series in a row where extra extra Riders feel like they need their own label.
I miss looking forward to v-cinemas as bonus, extra material rather than feeling like they're necessary to flesh out certain characters more. Even with 2 post-series v-cinemas for Saber I honestly don't ever see Reika and Ryoga really reaching satisfactory levels of development. It's a massive shame since their Seiken and suits are just awesome. The whole siscon thing in general is an anime trope that they keep trying to bring to live shows, but it just doesn't work. It's really a shame that Reika basically went from Isaac's lap dog, to Ryoga's. It felt like she was being written differently in the first quarter - as if she was the one acting on Isaac's behalf, since it was too early in the show to really debut his character or have him do anything. This is the only time where I felt like she had potential as a character, but it literally all went away as soon as she and her brother debuted as Riders. I genuinely enjoyed Reika's screentime moreso in the first two quarters. Last edited by Chasing; 07-01-2021 at 03:45 PM.. |

Speaking of Agito, does it really get a bad rap. I mean I watched it 6 years ago (after Kuuga) and I really liked it, which I enjoyed more than Kuuga, where I found it slow at times.

Saber has already got a teamup with Zenkaiger planned, so it'll have to be the Sentai after that that compares the Kyoryu Power of Revice and ZenkaiZyuran

All I can say is that I hope the voice and sound effects sound exactly like how this thing looks. EDIT: 30 seconds have passed and I have decided that I love it. Last edited by FreshToku; 07-03-2021 at 06:26 AM.. |
