Seems like it might be a fun show, at least coming after Saber so I'll give it a chance! It looks like quite a varied mix of previous shows to be honest, perhaps you could say the main 2 are a bit like Den-O if Momotaros was a bit calmer and Ryotaro was more bearable!

Is there any significance to Vice's mouth being covered up? I don't know if it's for a gag or there's a deliberate reason we don't see his mouth. That evil laugh at the end kind of makes me wonder if he'll at some point turn on Ikki and get a Kaijin form or something before they become partners again.
I can totally see Vice being granted a corporeal form by Deadman (so a deal with the devil but inverted) as a way of removing Ikki's ability to henshin and making him vulnerable, which eventually motivates Vice to relinquish his form after learning the value of friendship. How does that sound?

I'm assuming this is why Vice has a facemask on? I guess being a literal devil is pretty punk lol It's also possible covid influenced the use of a face mask, I could see how having a kamen rider character wear a face mask might be a good way to encourage kids to wear there's? Tho he only seems to wear it in his devil form, not when he's a rider, so I'm not really sure (I think in photos and such it's not as obvious, but in this belt commercial it's super obviously a face mask over the helmet) I'm not sure if it'll be used in any meaningful way in the show? I guess there might be some secret to it, but as of now we don't know In my mind it seems likely to me that it may serve as a way for bandai to sell "vice's face mask" as a popular cloth facemask for kids, tho that's just a guess Last edited by TheJaz; 08-03-2021 at 10:45 AM.. |

You're aware of the unfortunate situation ongoing for the last 1.5 years, right?

I know, just like, calling a non-sentient thing like Covid an oppressor or something... not wrong I guess, but caught me off guard

Assuming you mean Covid, nobody in their right mind would consider means one would use to protect themselves from Covid as a symbol of oppression. Granted, the operative is "in their right mind", but the point remains.
