>>23816342
The evil Keiwa plot was actually the original endgame. It was designed with the idea of a reverse of Geats IX colors because originally it was thought to be the final boss.

But the evil Keiwa plot ended up delayed several times by Takebe and then by the time it was done they didn't think it'd work as the end game anymore since it didn't get enough time.

>>23816369
See, if they I actually like the evil Keiwa plot because he actually becomes interesting. Him being the endgame fight after killing a bunch of people would have actually given it kind of a Gaim feel for the end

Instead he's cucked the hardest he's ever been by the DGP, and they keep telling him over and over again that they're just fucking him over but he just keeps insisting that they won't as if they're not openly doing so already.

She's a rebel that usually doesn't listen the advice of bandai or executives unless they outright reject her motifs like how it happened with Gaim and Gavv, I don't think anyone can keep her from being irresponsible ssdly
She's close to her pension though, and at least Matsuura sort of inherited her creativity which is her biggest strength

>>23816420
Yeah I could care less if Takebe forced Takahashi to hold off the dark Keiwa arc, it doesn't change the fact that Takahashi still wrote Keiwa horribly and there's no indication it would've been better if it was done earlier. We literally saw how he treated Michinaga's evil arc and Keiwa was a joke after Q1 regardless.

>Go-Busters had to get a retool immediately after they got their upgrade form due to poor sales
>Gaim had Mitzusane surviving instead of dying like in the original plan of which he only got to survive because the show ended up being one episode longer than originally planned, Kaito's backstory got cut
>Ninninger had to lean hard on anniversary stuff on the second half due to lukewarm sales and reception
>Geats had the story arcs of Neon and Keiwa delayed and the main antagonist changed
>What the second quarter of Gavv would be about got completely changed, the Stomachs ended up surviving past episode 24 unlike original plans, what Bocca and Liselle would be about got changed

Well, he was originally meant to be the final boss instead of Suel, so he might've overtaken the DGP instead of the other way around.

>>23816435

Nearly every Toku show does.

>>23816425
Speaking of Michinaga, I wonder what happened to his final form. Plosion Rage was definitely meant to be his reward for winning the DGP. The buckle got leaked alongside the other three and the design has those Jamato markings, but for some reason they just kept letting him use the Fever Buckle instead and only introduced it in a V-Cinema

>>23816424

>>23816441
>Plosion Rage was definitely meant to be his reward for winning the DGP
Buffa was planned to be powered up twice in the show, getting Jyamashin first and then Plosion Rage. So Jyamashin was most likely his intended upgrade for winning the JGP, and he would've probably gotten Plosion Rage during his final fight against Beroba, in the same arc in which everyone else was getting their final forms.

>>23816450
Gaim was originally meant to have a warriors + winged creature motif but it got rejected, the warrior part was kept but Bandai suggested fruits as a side motif instead
Gavv was originally going to have a sea creature motif but got rejected and Bandai suggested sweets instead
Not a Takebe show but for Fourze the staff had come up with every toy except for the helper robots that were mandatory at the time, so Bandai suggested the Food Droids and they went along with it since they couldn't come up with something better

Reminds me of this "leaked concept art for the next season"

>>23816442
Best primary by a mile is Baku. Best secondary by a mile is Fuwa.

Most successful primary by far is Shachou. Secondary is obviously Nox.

>>23816463
I have wondered why they never did a aquatic theme sentai series, especially with sharks being one of the more common animals when they do an animal themed group. But I do see how it'd be harder to do a rider series based around aquatic animals even if the belt forms would easily adapt to the concept.

>>23816463
Which is why a mouse is the main motif of My-Th because there's so much free cheese

>>23816473
If we take Nox out of the equation on account of him already being famous, who would be the most successful secondary?

>>23816476
I assume it's because you're sort of required to film a lot of underwater scenes or near the ocean, and that's gonna be expensive as fuck

>>23816481
Fuwa because bro is now a lawyer

>>23816480
Or the myth that mice like cheese when really it's one of the last things they'd ever choose to eat.

>Having lost his battle against the Humagears, Fuwa now decides to battle them in the court of law

>>23815978
That just means he's like a bio rider, a akumu ningen

>>23816498
If they ever decide to do a 10YA film with a focus on Fuwa (retconning his "death") and they manage to convince him back, it would be a huge waste not to do an Ace Attorney gag or a Lobotomy kaisen Higuruma reference.

>>23816463
>Gaim was originally meant to have a warriors + winged creature motif but it got rejected, the warrior part was kept but Bandai suggested fruits as a side motif instead
That's not really how it went down. Originally, every Rider was going to be based on a Sengoku Warlord, but in order to differentiate the Riders, Bandai proposed the fruit elements which went alongside the bird motif with the idea being "fruit-eating birds", and then they adopted motifs of warriors from other cultures to further differentiate the Riders. The bird motif was dropped later on and that's how the Gaim Riders as we know them came to be.
>Gavv was originally going to have a sea creature
A merman, specifically based on the Little Mermaid.

"Kenichi Suzumura to Postpone Live Tour, Citing "Illness" and "Aiming to Return in Perfect Condition"

>>23816523
Ouja Survive-san...

Rough translation of the Oricon article about Kenichi Suzumura
"Voice actor and artist Kenichi Suzumura announced on the 13th that he has canceled his acoustic live tour, which was scheduled for May and June. This was reported by Intention's official X account and the Bandai Namco Music official website.
"Regarding the acoustic live tour that we announced at the end of last year,
we had planned to hold it in May-June 2026 and had been working towards making it happen. However, due to the artist's poor health, it has become difficult to hold the event under optimal conditions, and we have reluctantly decided to postpone it," they reported.
He continued, "I deeply apologize to everyone who was looking forward to this performance. I will aim to return in perfect condition so that I can provide another opportunity to meet you all again in the future," and appealed, "I ask for your understanding and forgiveness." In February of this year, Suzumura was diagnosed with adjustment disorder by a doctor and will be taking a break to rest for a while, as announced by his management agency, Intention, where he serves as representative."

>>23816522
Gavv being beloved is a massive fluke mainly because they got a pretty good action director plus none of the actors were bad at their jobs, and the main 3 were obviously having fun which resonated in their performance

Yes, it's making me actually preorder a SHF Nox even though I usually wait and get it later in the aftermarket, just to pose it getting BTFO by Catastrom.

>>23816549
The head writer for Gavv is great at drama and comedy (although Gavv barely has any comedy surprisingly) and she's known for being really good at picking actors
Yeah yeah really sucks at handling big casts which was why she wanted the Stomachs to be simple characters that died quickly but her style generally lends itself to Rider

>>23816550
I like Orderm's design, Henshin sequence and jingle better, but I like seeing Catastrom in action way more.

>>23816508
>Sengoku Warlord
>Birds
>Fruits
>Warriors from different cultures
They sure had a lot of ideas for Gaim's design

>>23816550
I like Orderm but Catastrom hits different. Shit's metal and technically has a 0 loss record. I think the showrunners agree because we're supposed to be getting the final form a little earlier, right? If anything it feels like Orderm feels incomplete, being a skeleton and all, but it's like the natural step into Zeztz' next evolution.

>>23816550
I feel like Catastrom was really well done for a two part upgrade where usually the first part gets shafted. Not only was it really integral to the shifting dynamics of the story, but it just gave off such a powerful presence and honestly made every fight satisfying watching Baku just pummel through things. It honestly wouldn't have been so odd if Catastrom ended up the final form. Orderm honestly looks great, but I feel like it doesn't have the same impact that Catastrom did on debut but hopefully more screentime will help.

>>23816550
"Big buff guy who punches hard" is a surprisingly underused concept in Rider

>>23816550
Catastrom is one of the few forms that never really dropped the "debut strength" when typically it gets nerfed after a while.

>>23816563

>>23816572
Right now I'd say either her or Kaneko who was an assistant writer for Gavv are the likeliest picks for My-Th but really it's too early to tell, Takebe is just an extremely unpredictable producer
Also that writer is a good pick as long as it's for Rider, her writing style just doesn't work with Sentai and Precure which were what she worked on before even though her only hated season was LuPat

>>23816576
I feel that if we still had net movies and super hero taisens we would have had a segment like these where other riders just clown on Nox

Catastrom only looks that strong because, after Nox and The Disaster Nightmare, it's pretty much been exclusively used against monster of the week fodder. They avoided having it fight against Lord Three during the latter's debut, and they prevented it from having a proper fight with Dawn as Baku ran out of gas right after beating the Wolf Nightmare and Sieg took advantage of that to immediately stomp him out of his transformation.

From these stats, Catastrom really was Final form worthy despite its drawback. If Zeztz were a villain rider, Catastrom would be near unstoppable.
Orderm is obviously useful for its Recovery powers on steroids. It is a utility form if anything. And the reduced stats make sense after casting off the bulk and leaving a Skeletal form.
From the leaked design of our final form, it really feels like Orderm will "evolve" into Exdream somehow. So kinda makes sense when you consider the reduced stats and relatively lesser impact compared to Catastrom.

Wizard was a really different situation where the head writer was missing deadlines constantly so she was initially writing the show on automatic without being able to progress the story, then the producer promoted her as a co-head writer, this was also her first time being the head writer for anything in her career at that point
Zyuohger was hated at release for being too safe but it's very well liked now
LuPat is really liked by fujos, fundaishi and women but otherwise the story is really hated and the characters are considered to be poorly utilized
Zenkaiger is really well liked but wasn't watched by many due to Sentai's reputation being stained at the time

Lol. Bro will say anything at this point. I dont think you understand how much attention to detail was given to make sure Catastrom doesn't feel nerfed (because it never was). Lord 3 in the dream was lucky because Baku got an existential crisis, so he took advantage of taking the cheap shot. Sieg was always a smart motherfucker and took advantage as well. These were all circumstantial and do not take away from Catastrom being fucking powerful. But we are watching a show that is in the business of toys, and Catastrom cannot be the final form having been introduced mid series. This is the best we can get without making the super form feel cheap (which is unfortunately common in KR).

God, I was watching Gotchard and it felt crazy just how many super forms he got.

>>23816612
You're just mentioning how they got around Catastrom actually confronting opponents that are potentially on its own level or above. Outside of Nox and the Disaster Nightmare, it's only been allowed to have fights with low-tier opponents that even Plasma could handle pretty easily.

The body breakdown drawback is its nerf, the one that prevents it from fighting the major threats that debuted after it. If Catastrom actually got to fight them and won, its feats would be more impressive.

>>23816499
I don't think so, I think it moreso implies that it's another drone he controls like the Zeroider.

Honestly, I feel like the Zeztz vs Zero thing would've had more impact if it was Zero physically transforming or just controlling the CODE Zeroider. The latter would've been a good excuse for Baku to keep the bike afterwards too.

>>23816632
>The body breakdown drawback is its nerf
That's not a nerf. We got that literally in a span of, what, an episode after its debut? That means we already knew what the form was capable of from the get go. Do you even know what a nerf is? It's basically closer to a retcon to make something jarringly less OP after a significant period of time.

It was the episode after its 2 episode-long debut showcase. And it was conveniently triggered for the first time right before Baku had to fight Lord Three, and once again when he was about to resume his fight against Sieg.

>That means we already knew what the form was capable of from the get go
We don't know how it measures up to Three's fighting skills nor Dawn's raw power and skill because, again, they never let it actually fight any major threat that debuted after it. We know it's great at cleaning up monsters of the week because Plasma could already handle those with ease, and we also know it's stronger than the toys that debuted right before it (KR Nox and the pair of Lords Five & Six), but what about the toys that debuted after it?

>>23816625
That doesn't mean his next show will be as good.

>>23816654
Your whole argument rests on the basic stuff that's been shown on the screen (that is, you taking everything 'literally'l instead of you reading between the lines and comprehending intent and implication. Again, you're saying anything at this point just to downplay a pretty good execution of a Super form. Being this willfully obtuse at your age just makes you look pathetic.

>>23816550
Me too but why doesn't the top heavy form have a Rider Punch as its main finisher. Or a lariat.

>>23816639
The main concern here isn't whether those works stain his reputation or not, it's whether he's been starting to lose his consistency in recent years.

>>23816442
Jesus his secondaries are always fucking useless.

>>23816656
You're straying off topic. I wanted a new writer that breathes new life into the series and makes a great show like Shogo Muto. Whether his writing skills are still good or not is unrelated to the current topic since he's no longer a new writer

Don't come at me with that bullshit, at most we can infer that Lord Three loses an hypothetical fight given how concerned Three is about the power Baku has gained (but then again Lord Three is also getting a power-up of his own in the future), but parallels have been directly drawn between Catastrom's power and Dawn's so you can't just assume Dawn is weaker until they have a proper fight.

>Again, you're saying anything at this point just to downplay a pretty good execution of a Super form.
It's easy to make a Super Form look strong if you just keep throwing low level fodder at it. It's another story entirely if it has to constantly fight against higher tier threats.

>>23816674
>we can infer that...

Revice Jack isn't a berserk form since Vice is still in control. Catastrom & Orderm are rage forms, not berserk forms since Baku is still in control. You should have said Primitive Dragon

>Zeztz Orderm's reinforced coating.
>As particulate dark matter envelops the entire body, it manifests the Nightmare power inherent in the wearer, revealing their hidden destructive impulses.
It's the exact same wording used for Catastrom. Every other form uses the Zeztz Exoskim, which instead manifests the user's inner strength

>>23816808
The coating is called the Zeztz Naked? An interesting choice.

>>23816813
Never underestimate Japan's love and complete misuse of weird English words

>>23816808
That's so weird. We'll have to see if Orderm really does have destructive impulses but that doesnt seem to be the case at all considering it's supposed to be the yang to Catastrom's yin. Otherwise this is just another intern writing whatever for the web page.

Animate interview with ShirakuraP, TsukadaP, and TakebeP
https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1773837697
--First, could you tell us about the process that led to the start of the new "Agito" project as a commemorative work for the 55th anniversary of Kamen Rider's?
>Takebe: It all started with yakiniku
>Tsukada: We reunited with Jun Kaname at the production announcement for the work "Oshi no Ko," and we decided to go out for a meal. The police team, including Jun Yamazaki from the G Unit, had yakiniku, and that's when the topic of wanting to do a new Agito project came up.
>Takebe: It was really near the end, wasn't it? Up until then, we'd been reminiscing about old times.
>Tsukada: I think that's where it started, and then we consulted with Inoue-sensei, and that was the flow of events.
>Takebe: I myself thought it was just going to be a yakiniku get-together. There are some projects where the cast brings in a proposal, but I remember being really surprised that time, thinking, "They're talking about something like that!?"
>Tsukada: Up until now, when we do anniversary projects, we usually start with "It's almost been 10 years," but it's been 25 years since Agito was made.
>Takebe: I wasn't really aware of that, so I was like, "So everyone was thinking about that?"

>>23816847
--What kind of things did you discuss when creating a new Agito story for the Reiwa era?
>Takebe: At first, was it something like, "Let's put the spotlight on Makoto Hikawa"?
>Shirakura: "Let's do a story about how the G-Unit, led by Makoto Hikawa, will confront a world where humanity is gradually awakening to Agito." We talked about this while drunk a few days later (laughs).
>Takebe: It was a "completely dark bar" where no more than three people could enter (laughs).
>Shirakura: The restaurant was designated by dai-sensei (Toshiki Inoue), and he asked us to limit the number of people to three...
>Tsukada: It looked like it would fit in terms of space, though.
>Shirakura: There were seats available, but apparently, groups of three or more are not allowed. After talking for a bit, Inoue-sensei said, "Okay, then work's done." I thought to myself, "It was done in a minute!" (laughs).
>Takebe: However, after the plot meeting, Inoue-sensej mentioned that he needed some time, which showed his determination.
>Tsukada: My approach was to commit to whatever Mr. Shirakura and Mr. Inoue were creating, but the meetings were completely unpredictable, leaving me wondering, "What's going to happen?"
>Thinking about it again, 'Agito' was a unique and innovative work born from various challenges. It sounds strange, but those who create Kamen Rider series from now on will have to create Kamen Rider in a world where 'Agito' already exists. I've done it myself, and I think that's quite difficult. After all, there was no 'Agito' before 'Agito'. In that sense, I think this film has also become quite unique.
>Takebe: It certainly feels different from "V-Cinext."
>Tsukada: It's an unusual movie (laughs). Personally, I really like it.

>>23816849
--This film is part of the "Kamen Rider Movie Project," and the teaser trailer is titled "Kamen Rider Chronicle Begins."
>Shirakura: I can't quite remember how it all started, but at first I thought it would be something like bringing "Kamen Rider Agito" to life as an anniversary V-Cinema Next, following "Kamen Rider OOO 10th: The Revival of the Core Medals" and "Kamen Rider 555 20th: Paradise Regained." But before I knew it, "Agito" was being made into a movie...
>Takebe: It's different from our usual production system. We even filmed in Kyoto.
>Shirakura: To be honest, I felt that doing Agito in the form of a V-Cinext sequel was quite a heavy burden. Frankly, we were hesitant to take on the project. However, we changed our approach and decided that "if it's in the form of a feature film, we should give it our all."
>Takebe: So, the reason it became a movie is because the people around you were more enthusiastic than you expected?
>Shirakura: Tsukada accidentally let something slip during a meeting with important people.
>Tsukada: Was that right?
>Shirakurw: When I mentioned that a V-Cinext adaptation of "Agito" was in the works, someone said, "Let's make it a feature film." Since "Agito" was the first film in what we now call the "summer movie" lineup ("Kamen Rider Agito: Project G4"), many people at Toei have a positive impression of "Agito."
>Also, while it's not a grand pronouncement, some argue that "Agito" inherently has a thematic core—the idea of those who can transform and those who can't striving together to improve—already has themes that make it suitable for a film (laughs).

>>23816850
--There are definitely aspects that could only be brought to the movie because it was "Agito."

>Shirakura: That's right.

>Takebe: Another big factor is that Kaname-kun will be appearing.

>Shirakura: It's not just because "the cast asked us" or "it's an anniversary," but because if we're going to do 'Agito,' we should tackle it head-on. I've always thought that "otherwise it would be unfair to both the cast and the audience," so I think this is a great opportunity.

>>23816853
--I understand that filming for this project took place in two separate locations, Kyoto and Tokyo. I'd like to hear about the intention behind this approach.

>Tsukada: I've brought special effects productions to Kyoto before, so I have the know-how, and Kyoto allows actors who come from Tokyo to concentrate on their acting because they're disconnected from their daily lives. I think that kind of energy has a positive effect on the work. So I persuaded Shirakura, who was reluctant... (laughs)

>Takebe: The schedule was fairly close, so I was wondering, "Are we really going to do it?"

>Tsukada: Due to issues such as the stage props not being ready in time, we decided to "shoot the action scenes later in Tokyo," resulting in a unique blend of East and West. I think it turned out to be something truly unique in many ways.

>Shirakura: Not only were the cast members isolated in a "driver's license training camp"-like setting, but the staff also traveled all the way from Tokyo. Conversely, staff from Kyoto came to the Tokyo studio, creating a kind of East-West exchange that provided mutual inspiration. In the end, it was a really great experience.

>Takebe: It really felt like a "movie," didn't it?

>Tsukada: The members from Kyoto were really into it and participated enthusiastically.

>Takebe: I think the fact that it was directed by Tasaki (Ryuta) was a big factor, too. He had done a lot of filming in Kyoto for "The Woman of S.R.I," so he was able to request the cameramen and other staff as well.

>Shirakura: For better or worse, the Tokyo team is very experienced, so there's a chance they might just rely on their usual methods. Even if you tell them, "This time it's a 'film'," they might still perform as they normally would. On the other hand, the Kyoto team isn't in their usual environment. How should I put it...it's obvious, but they're serious about it. I think that's what elevated the film to a whole new level.
(1/2)

>>23816857
>Takebe: The timing was good this time too. Since it was right after "Kamen Rider Gavv" had finished, we were able to bring in people who had free time in their schedules, such as action director Satoshi Fujita, and suit actors Masashi Takada, Yuya Nawata, and Yuki Miyazawa.

>Shirakura: It might sound obvious when I say that we have leading suit actors play the leading roles in the suit acting...

>Takebe: Usually, I tend to be a little hesitant when working on other projects, but this time it was just right.

>Tsukada: As the third-in-command producer, I was constantly casting guest actors back then. Agito had a huge cast, to say the least.

>Shirakura: Because it includes things like the "Akatsuki" ship.

>Tsukada: We had to adjust the cast schedules around that time, even after their main appearances. Looking back now, I think, "I'm surprised we were able to get all the members together for the Akatsuki episode."

>Shirakura: There's bound to be an episode where everyone gets together at some point. As for Kashu (Toshiki), it seems that when Tsukada was traveling from Kyoto to Tokyo, he spoke to his manager at Kyoto Station.

>Tsukada: When we happened to meet, I told him, "We're currently holding auditions for Kamen Rider," and he said, "Please let me participate."

>Tsukada: My personal achievement is bringing Ryunosuke Kamiki along. Before the interview, I rewatched episodes 43 to 46. He did a lot of different things, but when I watch the scene where he flies away as Agito's "original form" now, I think, "What kind of treatment is that!?" (laughs).

>Shirakura: We hoisted the child actors up on the set (laughs).

>Takebe: What I remember about the casting at the time is that there was talk during the audition that Kaname-kun's "speech was a little..." but Shirakura-san said, "We'll go with Kaname-kun." Tsukada-san brought in Kashu-kun, and I and the female producer at TV Asahi said, "Tomoi (Yusuke)-kun would be good." Perhaps the fact that the three of us each recommended different cast members was a good thing. As for the rest, it was all a first-time experience, so I don't really remember much...

--Those must have been very difficult days.

>Tsukada: I pulled out some old notebooks and found that every time we had a meeting, we'd order a drink at a coffee shop, and I'd written it all down. It was just things like "iced coffee" and stuff like that (laughs).

Takebe: Back then, there was also a TV special (Kamen Rider Agito Special: A New Transformation), right? I was working on something else, but I thought it looked incredibly difficult. It was my first movie, and every day was a whirlwind of shocks.

>Tsukada: I think I also submitted some ideas for "impossible crimes," although they weren't often used. I did use quite a variety of methods for the killings, after all.

>Shirakura: Most of the ideas I came up with for "Kamen Rider Kuuga" weren't used either. I was told, "Yours are too logical," but what's wrong with being logical?! (laughs)

>>23816869
--(laughs). By the way, how did the casting of Yuuchami-san (Aoi Ruriko/Kamen Rider G6), who plays an important role in this work, come about?

>Tsukada: Producer Yoshikawa Fumiki did a great job. He was really working at full capacity, fueled by his passion for "Agito" from his childhood.

>Shirakura: Producer Yoshikawa had Yuchami's name on the list of candidates, and Director Tasaki said, "This is the one." Apparently, she was his top pick, but the fact that he even included her as a candidate is amazing. At least, it wouldn't have occurred to me.

>Takebe: For the G-series suits, appearance is extremely important. We were saying that we wanted someone at least 165 centimeters tall, but Yuchami is 176 centimeters, so I think it was a perfect fit. Filming was tough and hot, but she never complained about anything on set and was a really cheerful person. She apparently thought it was a prank the whole time.

>Tsukada: But that kind of thing happens with movies, doesn't it? When producer Kazuhiro Takahashi mentioned Koji Kikkawa's name for "Kamen Rider W," I thought, "No way, he won't do it," but he did.

>Takebe: We often say, "Listening is free!"

>>23816871
--I think one of the defining features of "Agito" is the contrast between Agito Gills, who awakens to supernatural powers, and the G-series, which was created through human effort.

>Shirakura: It wasn't something I intended from the start. Before the "Agito" project was finalized, during design meetings with Bandai, the theme of "Mecha Kuuga" came up. Of course, at the design stage, there was no setting regarding whether it was human or robot. The starting point was simply deciding that it would be a powered suit worn by a police officer.
>Now, surrounded by transforming Kamen Riders, I can proudly say that Makoto Hikawa is a normal human with no superpowers, simply fighting while wearing a powered suit... But that wasn't the intention; it just happened that way. I feel that it's thanks to the great scriptwriter, Inoue-sensei, who picked up on that idea so well, that we have what we have today.

>>23816873
--In the prototype stage, "Kamen Rider G3," there were many instances where he lost, right?

>Tsukada: That's right. That's why the impact was so great when he became "Kamen Rider G3-X".

>Shirakura: Up until then, he was just a punching bag... (laughs).

>Tsukada: (laughs). I think a big factor was that Inoue-san was fond of Sumiko Ozawa and Toru Hojo. When I received the script and saw the amount of dialogue, I thought, "I knew it!" I have the impression that the entire G-Unit created an important part of Agito.

I didn't want to say it until now, but Shouichi's characterization in the new movie sounds like he's being used as a proxy for Joe Odagiri...

>>23816874
--Makoto Hikawa's performance in "Kamen Rider Agito: Project G4" was also impressive.

>Takebe: That was a movie, and I don't think there was any resistance at all to making Makoto Hikawa the main character.

>Shirakura: The reason we centered the story around Hikawa was because we had the theme "Kamen Rider G4" from the beginning, so it inevitably became a "police vs. Self-Defense Forces, G3 vs. G4" scenario.

>Takebe: It was our first attempt to do a TV series and a film simultaneously, so we thought it would be difficult unless we shifted them slightly. On the other hand, the story of Ryo Ashihara (episode 28, "That Summer Day") was written by Yasuko Kobayashi for the TV series. I think we were trying to balance things like that with the film.

>Tsukada: At the time, Seiji Takaiwa (the suit actor for Kamen Rider Agito) had just finished an all-night shoot and said, "I'm off to film the TV series now!" and I was like, "What!?" (laughs).

>Takebe: I was in a Hiace van with Tsuyoshi Miyazaki (action director) (laughs).

>Tsukada: That's not possible right now, is it? Maybe I shouldn't write about this kind of thing?

>Takebe: It's probably past the statute of limitations now (laughs).

>>23816878
Always have been.

>>23816880
The power transfer leak sounds like the equivalent of Joe passing the Kuuga role to a new actor, but still taking the director's chair

>>23816879
--So everything was a trial-and-error process, right? I doubt you could have imagined the "Kamen Rider" series continuing as it is today?

>Shirakura: We never intended to continue. It was originally supposed to end with "Kamen Rider Kuuga," so it was more like, "Oh, so we're doing one more Kamen Rider series?"

>>23816884
--Looking back now, "Kamen Rider Agito" was a work that created a new format for the Kamen Rider series.

>Shirakura: In hindsight, that's one way to look at it. Kamen Rider Kuuga is a reboot of the Showa Riders, but Agito has aspects of a reboot of the Metal Hero series, such as Tokkei Winspector. Since it aired in the same time slot as the Metal Heroes, it's as if the DNA of Kamen Rider and Metal Heroes merged there, creating one format for the Heisei Riders.

>Takebe: The show had a long-running plot twist, like "the main character's name is actually different," and it was quite a "serial drama."

>Shirakura: We would have a final screening at the studio, and after each screening, Kazunori Numao, who was in charge of production, would turn around and ask, "What happens next?" I'd say, "Well, you already know!" (laughs).

>Takebe: That's right, we were trying to make the pull as strong as possible.

>>23816885
--The first episode of the TV series was told from Makoto Hikawa's perspective, and it had a unique structure in that the identity of Agito's human form was not revealed.

>Shirakura: The light from the belt wasn't enough to show up on camera, so Takaiwa-san had a hot bare light bulb hanging from his waist, and it looked like he was having a hard time.

>Takebe: Even now, Agito is still talked about as a hero shrouded in mystery. The main character doesn't necessarily transform at the beginning and you think, "So this is what transformation is like..." I think it had a unique approach.

>>23816888
--In that sense, I felt that this work is packed with various challenges that have continued from the TV series. Finally, please tell us about the highlights and points of interest from your respective perspectives.

>Takebe: It's amazing that they were able to recreate it to this extent after 25 years. If the staff had been different...for example, if the director hadn't been Tasaki-san and the screenwriter hadn't been Inoue-san, it would have been a completely different film.
>When I spoke with Hitomi Fujita, she said, "It's not that I'm just remembering, it's like Sumiko Ozawa is inside me." The same goes for Hojo (Jun Yamazaki) and Omuro (Akira Shibata); their voices and acting are exactly the same. To remain "exactly the same" after 25 years is not something that can be achieved in any production. In that sense, I think we are witnessing something close to a miracle.

>Tsukada: One of the highlights is the prison scene, where Kyoto actor Teruo Yoshida plays a major role. I think it has the feel of a classic Toei "yakuza film."
>In the Agito TV series, the Unknown attacked people who had the potential to become psychics. If this film embodies the idea that "people awaken to psychic powers and transform into Agito," then it could be said that it shows something that wasn't seen in the TV series.
>Another point is that we created it in a "completely dark bar," which freed us from the "this is how it has to be" constraints of a superhero show (laughs).

>Takebe: (laughs). But I thought a lot of thought had gone into it. At first I wondered, "Why prison?", but when I saw the finished product, combined with Director Tasaki's interpretation and casting, I felt it was truly a story that goes beyond the TV series.
(1/2)

>>23816889
>Shirakura: The biggest challenge this time is that it's a battle between humans. With the theme of "Agito," we can take on a battle between humans, which is hard to call aliens or monsters. In a situation that could otherwise be gruesome, the exceptionally talented screenwriter Mr. Inoue skillfully wrapped it up in a veil and balanced it by adding humorous elements.
>It's very refreshing to watch, and I think it has a very satisfying ending. I hope you'll pay attention to the masterful writing of the script.

The more I fucking watch this retarded Neon plot the more it actually makes no sense. The wish was "create a world where my ideal daughter Neon, is alive ", ignoring the fact he wished for an entire different kid to be brought back which is isn'teven touched on much. Wouldn't that wish mean that she just gets reconned into existence as Akari sister? Or better yet doesn't that mean she just over takes Akari existence making it so she actually been around longer than 11 years. The wishes alter reality not just create things

Doesn't the Rolling Vistamp just swap Ikki and Vice's positions Ikki is the ghost and Vice is running around with Ikki's body?

It was positioned by the staff as Revice's "rampaging" form, just a different take on it, (or whatever is the term they used for berserker forms) but even at the time right after the official blog post, anons here never seemed to accept it as being part of the same category as the berserker forms.

Further correction on the Gaim motif part:

>Overview
This work is a street fight-oriented series. While there are precedents for works that focus on battles between Kamen Riders, such as "Kamen Rider Ryuki", "Ryuki" was a battle royale-style story where Riders killed each other for their own selfish desires. In contrast, this work incorporates elements of a power struggle on a group scale, with each Rider battling not for personal gain, but as a representative of their respective groups vying for the Golden Fruit. Furthermore, just as "Kamen Rider Kuuga" used serial killers, which were a source of fear for children at the time, this work, mindful of the Tohoku Earthquake and the subsequent social situation, which were the biggest fears for children at the time of its broadcast, depicts the supernatural disaster of the Helheim Forest encroaching as the greatest threat that demands courage to confront, and the opposing forces are positioned as beings at the mercy of this force [ Source 1 ].

>Helheim Forest
Main writer Gen Urobuchi set up the Helheim Forest as a symbol of the reproductive power of plants and natural disasters, based on the idea of depicting the power of the belt as being two sides of the same coin as the enemy, similar to the setting of the first Kamen Rider series, and also based on the idea that the most frightening thing for the child audience at the time was probably the Tohoku Earthquake. [ 284 ]

>Project Background
At the time of the production announcement, five Kamen Riders —Gaim, Baron, Ryugen, Zangetsu, and Gridon— were revealed, making it clear that the series would feature multiple Riders, similar to "Kamen Rider Ryuki" and "Kamen Rider Kabuto". According to Toei producer Naomi Takebe, she questioned the format of recent Kamen Rider series, which had mainly featured two Riders on television, and decided to create a series with multiple Riders because of the popularity of group idols like AKB48 and team sports such as professional baseball, swimming, and gymnastics [ Source 13 ].

The idea of armored warriors arose from a meeting between Takebe and the Bandai Boys Toy Division Rider Team, where they conceived of fighting with weapons to differentiate it from the previous series, Kamen Rider Wizard , which mainly featured magic with CG effects.[ 15 ] Initially, the concept was for all of them to be Sengoku warlord Riders, but it was difficult to differentiate the characters, so a fruit element was incorporated at Bandai's suggestion. [ 309 ] Variations of armor, including Western and Chinese styles, were also introduced.[ 12 ] [ 355 ]

The fruit idea was proposed because the aforementioned threat, a natural disaster, is a plant and a fruit, [ 6 ] and because it is a favorite of children and can be talked about by people of all ages. It was also incorporated as an element of "hook" because armor alone would have been simply cool.[ 15 ] The motif (basic form) of the main Rider, Gaim, is orange, chosen for its popularity and recognition, and to differentiate it from Kamen Rider Wizard , which was primarily red.[ 309 ] [ 356 ] Other fruits were also chosen for their popularity and recognition, but nuts such as acorns were also included to differentiate the Lockseeds.[ 309 ] [ 357 ] The initial concept for the project was based on the motif of a "bird that eats fruit", so the design of Gaim retains traces of feathers.[ Source 14 ]

The dance team idea was set up as a scapegoat element to distract from the fruit, as it was something more intense than the fruit. [ 6 ]

The design of the transformation belt was conceived because the orange cross section resembled the windmill part of Kamen Rider 1's belt. [ 15 ] [ 355 ] As there are multiple Kamen Riders, several Kamen Riders use the same type of belt, but to differentiate them individually, each Kamen Rider has a faceplate inspired by a cell phone cover. [ 15 ]

>Concept
The initial concept presented for the production of the 15th Kamen Rider series of the Heisei era was "multiple Riders" [ 39 ] [ 40 ]. At the time, idol groups such as AKB48 were popular, and team sports such as soccer, swimming, and gymnastics were gaining popularity, so there was a growing desire to try a multi-Rider series in the Kamen Rider series, which had been using a two-Rider system for four years since Kamen Rider W. [ 40 ]

At the same time, the motif of "warlords of the Sengoku period" was presented, and the image of warriors clad in magnificent armor competing against each other was envisioned. [ 39 ] [ 40 ]

However, the armored warrior motif alone would only result in a cool-looking character lacking appeal. [ 39 ] [ 40 ] Juice was one of the first elements considered as an addition, which eventually led to the use of fruit as a motif. [ 39 ]

Another element added was the lock, which was chosen to symbolize "opening and closing doors to other worlds", and it was decided that it would be the motif for a key item. [ 41 ]

The design team, who were considering developing a figure line, came up with a distinctive visual concept in which "fruit falls from the sky and pierces the character's head, which then transforms into armor", and the selection of the motif went smoothly. [ 42 ]

The Rider trio of the current series.

>>23817063
However, once the character design work began, production became difficult. [ 42 ] It was difficult to differentiate multiple characters because there is not much variation in the armor worn by Japanese warlords. [ 42 ] So they added bird elements and considered having "the main character be a hawk " and "the rival be a crane", but this was ultimately abandoned because there were too many motifs and it would have looked disjointed. [ 42 ]

Instead of introducing bird motifs, a new initiative was introduced to broaden the range of armor that would be produced from Japan to the world. [ 42 ] This is how the design prototypes for the Sengoku-style "Gaim", the Western-style "Baron", and the Chinese-style "Ryugen" were created. [ 42 ]

Meanwhile, there was heated debate over the design of each character's weapon. [ 43 ] Given the motif of Sengoku warlords, the toy team had assumed that swords would be the common weapon, but producer Naomi Takebe objected. [ 43 ] Takebe, who had carefully considered the significance of Kamen Rider's form changes, felt that the conventional "fire form" and "water form" presentations had reached their limits, and argued that "if each suit of armor had its own dedicated weapon, the fighting style would also change when they changed suits". [ 43 ] From the perspective of selling toys, having too many types of weapons would make it difficult to commercialize them all, so Kiyoto Nishizawa of Bandai had thought of "a weapon like a multi-tool that transforms into a sword, bow, and gun", but it was rejected. [ 44 ]

(4/5)

>>23817080
As a compromise between the two opposing viewpoints, it was decided that "only the main character (Gaim) and his rival (Zangetsu) would be equipped with swords" [ 43 ]. Furthermore, it was decided that the main character would wield two swords, and the sword "Musou Saber", which he shares with his rival, and the weapon "Daidaimaru", which is unique to the orange armor, were designed, creating the concept of "Arms Weapons", weapons tied to the armor [ 43 ]. In addition, it was decided that the commercialization of role-playing toys would be limited to the weapons of the main Riders, with other weapons being guaranteed as accessories for the figures [ 44 ].

Is Gavv at least better than Geats? The issues

>>23817118
Different beasts. Gavv feels more grounded while Geats is more fantastical.

>>23817118
Much better, but it still has some issues like peaking at the first quarter, having an extremely incompetent villain group, and some wasted characters and subplots.

>>23817133
>extremely incompetent villain group, and some wasted characters and subplots.
Literally all thr issues if Geats but as long as it's a more focused plot it should be fine

why was New Den-O pushed a lot around the late 00's to early 10's? He didn't seem to stick around even

>>23817118
Yes, you should watch something else instead. Don't you ever touch something related to rider again.
This franchise isn't for (you)

>>23817118
geats is better imo

>>23817161
t. seething Geatsfag

>>23817160
They wanted an adult Rider in the Den-O movies when they could only use Kid Ryotaro, and New Den-O was the easiest to fit. Note his appearances stop because Den-O stops getting solo movies and just makes crossover appearances or gets very short specials. They never pushed him as a guest in the bigger crossovers with other Riders (Let's Go Kamen Riders started production as a Den-O movie).

>>23817118
Gavv has a strong first quarter, but spins its wheels really hard for the next 25-30 episodes only to trip and tumble across the finish line with its pants full of shit. Every series Komura has headlined is like this. She can't maintain momentum for 45-50 episodes and she has serious issues with pacing.

>>23817227
Geats kind of fucks around at the end too. The second we got IX the tension just died off. Nobody could deal with him and the villains just sucked balls.

>>23817234
One of Geats many problem is that shopping dates for the final forms got pushed back and they were apparently spinning their wheels because of it. Also Buffa Maou/Plosion Rage didn't even ship despite being the needed payoff for most of Q3 and the Jymato Grand Prix.

>One of Geats many problem is that shopping dates for the final forms got pushed back and they were apparently spinning their wheels because of it
At the very least Keiwa's heel arc kept being delayed by the producer's own choice.

>Also Buffa Maou/Plosion Rage didn't even ship
Takebe said that it got postponed to the V-Cinema because it "changed far too much in a way that wasn’t intended" after it was ordered, which sounds pretty vague.

We also don't know what the deal was with Neon's final form.

>>23817118
Gavv has better characters, story, cases of the week and action imo, the villain faction and final episode are way worse than Geats but the main antagonist isn't as irritating as Suel

What if we made a Kamen Rider who, despite the name, doesn't ride a motorcycle?

Michinaga and Daichi has to be one of the most forced redemption arcs I've seen in rider. Like at no point do they acknowledge all the fuck up shit Michinaga has done

>>23817290
Revice rides a hover bike and Drive rides a car

>>23817290
Already happened

>>23817290
That is most riders that aren't the main these days.

>>23815914
Same. I really want a game with modern Riders so much.

>>23816069
>Brad Chadderson from High School vs. my pathetic broke ass incel self

>>23817292
Yeah, apparently being tricked into killing Keiwa's sister is way worse than the mass murders he willingly committed 10 episodes ago and is pretty much the only thing he should atone for.

And Daichi's redemption gets even worse in the V-Cinema when we learn his unmonitored, retarded "good guy" experiments were the cause of everything that went wrong in Geats' history.

>>23816849
>mentioned that he needed some time, which showed his determination.
Is it really so unusual for Inoue to do that?

>>23817346
I only have 4 episodes left and I honestly don't want to finish it. The plot is basically a worse version of Gaim with similar issues to Wizard. The best thing out of these last few episodes has been evil Keiwa which they fucked up too. I honestly wish they would have done the orginal idea and had Keiwa become the final villain. Yeah, it's basically Gaim's end but at least Evil Keiwa has some interesting potential

So Fujita did the action for this? I'm really wondering how would he feel with a movie that has such s high budget like this, so I guess Takebe and Fujita won't be in the Den-O movie since they'll probably be working on My-th

>>23817354
Yes.

surprised they had to craft a whole new suit and such

>>23817084
>it was decided that "only the main character (Gaim) and his rival (Zangetsu) would be equipped with swords
Wait what. Zangetsu was supposed to be the secondary?

>>23817410
No, Zangetsu is the "rival" as in the main antagonistic Rider. They gave him the Musou Saber because he also has a Japanese motif, as he's supposed to be a "superior" being to Gaim, which is why his fruit motif was chosen to be a high-class melon and why a shield was chosen as his Arms Weapon (to show that he is superior in both offense and defense).

Anons, what would you call the current weaknesses of Zeztz?

I actually dislike the idea of Decade Complete Form featuring more than ten Rider cards, not so much because it looks ridiculous, but because I feel that "10" is too important a motif for Decade to abandon. Instead, he should only have ten cards, but he has multiple "settings".

Setting 1: Kuuga, Agito, Ryuki, Faiz, Blade, Hibiki, Kabuto, Den-O, Kiva
>Setting 2: W, OOO, Fourze, Wizard, Gaim, Drive, Ghost, Ex-Aid, Build, Zi-O

Also it bothers me that Legend uses chemy cards, I wish he used gemstones. I get he's meant to market chemy cards, but still.

>>23817597
Cool, I don't, Minami's way better than her.

>>23817601
He fashioned himself after Decade because he's his biggest fanboy so it makes sense that he uses some kind of cards.

>>23817601
He's literally using a modified Decadriver though. Why wouldn't he use cards

>>23817604
>>23817605
Ah, yeah, I see what you mean, had a bit of a brainfart there.

>>23816966
Barely. He skin texture is slightly rougher than in Agito. That's about it.

>>23817296
Revice has both a hoverbike and a skateboard, and a civilian bicycle.

>>23816900
The whole reality altering never sat right with me anyway. Everything just feels so convoluted in the grand scheme of things, further complicated by the very, very distant future guys who don't seem to be impacted by any butterfly effect. I dislike Geats for that very core reason.

>>23817624
There are some time travel stories where time is more deterministic. There's no such thing as "butterfly" effect. Unless you can cause a great change in the world, everything will converge to the established future.

Steins;Gate is really big in Japan and it follows this logic.

>>23817644
I prefer Den-O's time travel.
>Don't even think about it

>>23817644
The DGP didn't just kill one or two people, they massacred countless humans and wiped out countless areas across different periods in time in all sorts of places around the world.

>>23817646
Yeah. Which is why Geats all feels like really convenient bullshit.

Seems like they're not planning to do any of the weapons since they included their finisher sounds in the belt.

The butterfly effect does exists if you're looping time–in your dreams, though.
