I don't like how it's the usual engagement bait that the KR_EN twitter always posts, but I feel sitting next to Shouma would be a good flight. So much snacks to eat and he's a puppy of a guy to friendly people.

You know, I never really noticed it before, but there's something mildly Showa-ish about how Decade used to fight in his show. It was mostly evident when he was outnumbered. I feel like this element to him kinda disappeared in later crossovers.

They're making puns using the Japanese pronunciation of English words. Blades (Bureizu) and Blazer (Bureza) are both words that sound similar the way they pronunce them. You know, it's kinda like how Type Tridoron (Toraidoron) has a Rider Kick called Tridrop (Toraidoroppu). Toei and Bandai love making puns like that.
And Blades is indeed the correct name, nearly every Rider in Saber is named after something related to swords. The only two exceptions are Riders who don't use swords to transform.

He's talking about Doraemon, Shin-Chan and Detective Conan, which are long ongoing shows that have been going on for 50 years with the same cast of characters. Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and PreCure meanwhile reinvent themselves every year, so they're less comfy to the average household

>>23819784
Shin-chan is probably the most difficult to write for, since the other two shows can be boiled down to "Wacky gadget hijinks" or "Murder mystery". Meanwhile, how do you even make a Shin-chan movie that's high stakes enough to make it worthy of being in cinemas, but also not too high stakes that you can justifiably believe a 5 year old can solve it

The Shin-chan TV show actually goes between different substories to get away from simple SoL Japanese family life all the time, like having Shin-chan and his friends be rappers in a graffiti covered apocalyptic city or them as samurais and such. The movies these days are usually world travel movies, like the last I remember is them going to India and IIRC Australia.

Gavv is nothing like Tekkaman Blade outside of the MC being the main villain's brother. With that logic, you might as well claim that Gaim is the Rider version of Muteking because the protags are dancers.

Both Shin-chan and Conan have adapted to the times. You can see characters in both shows using fax machines in early episodes, then smartphones in more recent ones, I guess that's helped them maintain their popularity somehow. Doraemon is a different case as they refuse to adapt to that extent. You never see anyone in the show use a smartphone, or even the internet. Because of this, Doraemon is likely the most difficult to write, as it gets harder and harder to attract a new generation when the series itself is stuck in the 20th century. I heard they've also stopped printing new manga recently.

Outside of being forced to be a NEET for perfectly valid reasons, he doesn't really come across as introverted. He's generally cheerful when he isn't going through something harsh, was pretty eager to get a job, he doesn't think twice when it comes to helping random people, he immediately hit it off with Fujimi and he doesn't seem to have trouble talking to the strangers he has to investigate for his missions. He's definitely not on the same level as Ryotaro and Wataru, I'd even say Shouma is more meek and Hongo is more of a loner than him thanks to their complexes about their nature.

Yeah it's 23 episodes long, my guess is that they want to establish as much of the universe as possible due to the whole "shared worldview" deal so the first 4 seasons have a half year length, then the fifth season will actually be a year long and if the sales were bad for these 5 seasons overall the franchise gets canceled
According to leaks Toei managed to secure at least 3 years for Project R.E.D but the franchise isn't guaranteed to continue after that unless it's successful

They hired his son to play Ichigo in Beyond Generations and famously hired Inoue's daughter for Donbrothers. Hell, Inoue himself is the son of Masaru Igami who wrote for the original Kamen Rider. They clearly don't mind nepotism
>>
>>23820405
>Inoue's daughter for Donbrothers
Inoue's daughter was for Gotchard and Gozyuger and to be fair the producer didn't originally want to hire here for Gozyuger, he ended up hiring her because he couldn't get the writer he wanted
Another thing is that he hired her because he befriended her in a wrap up party for 555 where she was invited rather than just because she was Inoue's daughter
In comparison Fujioka's son and daughter were only hired specifically because they're Fujioka and have only been hired for stuff related to Ichigo
>>
>>
>>23820405

Oh yeah another act of nepotism (although bot blood related like the Fujioka) is the promotion of Shinya Maruyama after Ryusoulger who then became president of Toei

>>23820427
It was for 555 20th where Matsuura served as a vice producer, I forgot to write 20th like a retard
He then hired her for Gotchard despite being a vice producer to get her used to writing for TV in case he wasn't able to get the writer he wanted for Gozyuger, which he didn't, so he ended up hiring her for that

Does anyone even accept Raia and Gai being gay lovers? That's complete OOC for both characters, especially since Raia was supposed to be one of the good Riders in Ryuki, and is even one of the people who helped fight Gai. Just feels like it was written for shock value
>>
>>
>>23820595
It was written by shock value but Raia always felt like a massive faggot for his friend that was originally chosen to be a Rider
The whole being gay for Gai was that he misremembered his friend and thought Gai was him but that's besides the point, people joked that he was gay back in the day but I don't know if this was actually Kobayashi's original intention, it's just that Inoue decided to make that meme a reality for seemingly shits and giggles

Oh, I thought the plot twist that the crazy manhole girl actually was a crazy murderer was hilarious. But a lot of people hated it back when it was airing live. There was also the whole Ginga plotline they shoved into it awkwardly and Woz randomly getting his final form because Inoue hates shilling toys.
>>
>>23820595
Raia was always gay, but a big issue that I found with his characterization was that he way too easily settled into the role of sociopathic murderer. Like the second he loses his memories, he's able to easily remove himself of all conscience. This is weird to me since he never displayed such sociopathic/hedonistic tendencies in the show.
>>
>>23820662
Except one time in Hibiki, where he put a weird amount of focus on justifying the Armed Saber, perhaps excessively so, up to even introducing a brand new character that was never hinted at prior to then. The Armed Saber arc was really fucking weird because it's completely out of character for Inoue to put that kind of effort into a new toy.
Remember Kaixa's upgrade? Dude just walked into an upgrade building for no reason and it fell out of the roof. THAT'S the kind of thing I expect out of Inoue when it comes to toys, not an entirely new goddamn character.

It's due to the cultural differences. In the west, spending Christmas with just your bro is a little unusual but not that weird. In Japan, Christmas is pretty much exclusively a romantic holiday. It's the equivalent of spending Valentine's Day with just your "best friend" who isn't your lover.

Inoue just hates heroics now. He had a whole interview where he stated that in his older age he finds justice and heroics bullshit now and that's why he wrote the Donbrothers to be a bunch of self centered jerks who only are heroes when they absolutely need to be. Being forced to feature a "I wanna save everyone" hero that he had to play straight probably pissed him off.

The thing is as mentioned Inoue hates shilling stuff and finds heroes and all that bullshit, where as Masahiro actually finds all that stuff cool and takes pride in being one of the most powerful Kamen Riders. Being in something written by a guy who wasn't remotely interested in making Tsukasa look cool was probably torture to him.

I can't imagine Complete 21 was his decision, was it? Like he doesn't have much input in regards to suit designs, does he? That was probably someone else's decision. So there's at least two people at Toei who hate Decade.

Not lately. For some reason they started not having the Secondary get their final form until very late in the show. It used to be the secondary got theirs about midshow and the lead rider getting their final form was typically the last major upgrade of the show but not so much anymore.

So I'm not sure how legit it is and it's mainly all speculation from the jap side. But Zeztz/Gavan movie twitter has been posting "Filming Report" pictures as clues for stuff in the movie and people are speculating that it has something to do with W or at least Shotaro.
The pic in this post has fedoras, one of which looks similar to Shotaro's. Another picture has a typewriter and a book shown in it while another has a bike that looks similar to the model the HardBoilder is based off. It seems like it's all purely coincidence but a lot of people in the comments do point out the W similarities.

It does feel like weird that they seemingly haven't gotten Renn Kiriyama to return for anything W related. If these are hints to anything and Kiriyama did return, it could be that instead of Shotaro he ends up playing the movie Rider like how Garren's actor returned to be Dawn. W is Baku's actors favorite Rider and show after all.

Speaking of secondary final forms. I'm curious to see what people think about secondary final forms that are introduced in V-Cinemas. Like Booster, Sin, Majesty, Parfait, should they be considered as actual final forms compared to Trial, Deep, Revive, and Frappe? I feel like at least Valen's definitely is considering it ends with Mode like Over/Master and A La Mode.

For Gozyuger's summer movie RyusoulBlack's actor is best friends with one of the guest actors and despite the actor coming to set for every scene they never actually had him cameo for the movie, so these theories that they'll get Renn Kiriyama because he's Yuki Furukawa's friend feel unfounded

Depends on the form. Most of the time, fans and the shows themselves tend to favour the in show final forms. But there are some cases where the movie forms also get some love. A lot of people are cool with Buffa Plosion Rage as the final form, and there's some stands that straight up put Plosion Rage alongside the other final forms. But then there's stuff like Lone Wolf or Valvarad GT that sort of just feel like sidegrades, and they're not cool enough to supplant the TV show final form

Yeah but the issue is that the other suit actors don't feel entirely up to par. You can always tell when a Takaiwa Rider is played by someone other than Takaiwa.

It's so weird how literally no one had any real resistance to timestop in this show. The only reason the Timejackers didn't win 100% of the time was due to sheer incompetence. Like why isn't Schwarz at least immune to it? It's like Diend was given that power just because they needed Decade to hold Another Decade off for a while in the finale but they needed a way to counter timestop. There was just no counter to it whatsoever unless you also had timestop.

I honestly don't like this form much. The Ridewatch on his head is kinda tacky and the horizontal belt over the vertical one he already has looks a bit lazy. Overall, it feels like a poor man's Oma.
I know people hate GrandZi-O, but the biggest issue with Oma Form of all is the fact that it just looks so, so much cheaper in every possible way.

Not that I'm defending it, but I don't think it's a Western thing.

I have my issues with it. The painted on circuits on his chest don't really look that good. I guess it's fine in motion, but you don't want to get a clear look at it for too long or else the fact that it's a cheap recolor really starts standing out.

CJGX is literally CJX but better, both versions of Fusion States are superior to Cosmic, Wizard literally got an upgraded version of Infinity Style in Infinity Dragon that got further upgraded into Infinity Dragon Gold, pretty sure Type Special is above Type Tridoron since Dark Drive on autopilot needed both Tridoron and Mach to be beaten, Ex-Aid got a form even more broken than Muteki in the novel, Cross-ZBuild is more powerful than Genius and was used for the Final Stage's final battle, Almighty Saber is more powerful than Xross, and both Amazingummy and Hexenheim are more powerful than Over and Master.
>>
>>23820941
That's just how these movie/special forms are. They're not actually given a whole lot of budget. Fuck, most of them just end up getting kitbashed into other forms later down the line. That's how little value they have.

Sure, but from what I glimpsed, this girl was claiming to be a super huge tokusatsu nerd who just loooooved tokusatsu more than anyone else, and then couldn't identify any of the villains or side characters from OOO despite spending literal months on an OOO cosplay. Purely performative.

Only new parts of this suit are the chest, shoulders, wrists and cheap asscape. It straight up completely reuses the standard Level 2 suit, and I'm willing to bet that even the helmet is actually just the normal helmet with some extra plastic taped to it. I'd say that it probably had a little more money put into it than Cross-ZBuild, but not by much.

I don't think Cross-ZBuild really fits since it explicitly requires Bando to be there. From a practical standpoint, it's better for Bando and Sento to use their own respective strongest forms separately than for them to fuse.

I personally wouldn't count any of them. But if I had to make an exception it would be something like where a Rider that should have gotten an equivalent final form but didn't or just not getting any real upgrade at all. Garren and Leangle King Form, Hyper Gattack, Diend Complete Form, Kuuga Super Rising Ultimate, Necrom Yujou Burst Damashii, Valkyrie Justice Serval, and Espada Arabiana Night.

>Somewhere in the universe lies Planet H12 (pronounced “H-One-Two”). This planet, which closely resembles Earth, is suddenly attacked by space kaiju from another planet.
>As the planet collapses and faces extinction, one lone alien escapes to Earth. Named “Teo”, the lonely alien who will eventually grow to become Ultraman.
>On Earth, he lives as Ibuki Mitsuishi, a third-year veterinary student at Meishin University. Although he struggles with the common sense of Earthlings, he leads a peaceful life communicating with the animals he loves. However, the peace is disrupted by a crisis where the same space kaiju who destroyed his home planet suddenly appears on Earth.

He's a pacifist just like Cosmos was, you can see him hesitating to fight in the trailer. He also has an extremely crazy hip ratio.

Zeztz's producer originally wanted the show to be gimmickless and apparently Bandai was OK with it but he then changed his plans when he realized that the show would probably sell poorly if he did that, it's why the gimmick are just gashapon balls despite not being thematic to agents nor dreams, only being thematic to the luck concept which is a really loose concept in the show compared to the other two

So how do you handle Evil Marvelous? He doesn't have an in-show final form so that should count, but that means Live also gets Marvelous as a final form despite him already having Evility
>>
>>
>>23821097
Not necessarily. I said it in /m78/, but the recent trend of removing collectibles in Ultraman might be Bandai trying to reduce the cost of producing the toys in spite of the current economic turbulence, and let's not pretend that this only begins recently with the war America started. The cost of things have been increasing that toy purchases have become a huge luxury for even the middle classes

Now that I think about it wasn't, Gavin supposed to be a two season thing? I remember them saying that if it didn't do well they would switch it out for something else and they have multiple series lined up if it doesn't. Must really not be doing too hot for them to jump the gun now

I could care less about female riders but I want whoever made this suit design to come back. Yua jobbed for most of the season but her suits were really cool.
>>
>>
>>23821253
No, this was always the plan. Project Red is planned to run for half seasons, and the previous lead will be a supporting cast member for the next season. So Gavan Infinity will still be part of Omegahorn's cast. They said that the true strength of Project Red won't be seen until about 3 seasons in so the plan is probably to build up a large roster of shows quickly that intermingle and crossover often do Gavan fans can still be hyped to watch a future show because Gavan might show up
>>

>>23821269
Most people who care about wanting more female riders are those type of people.
>>23821261
>saying this and pretending like the UK isn't the most cucked place
>>
>>23821273
We don't know what their current projections are. Since it's a new show, they might be expecting it to have slightly lower sales. What matters is the trend afterwards. Gavan being in the next show will encourage current fans to keep watching, and some of them might become fans of Omegahorn and buy his merch. This leads to Omegahorn being in the next show where they could get a chance to like the new guy and buy his merch. The whole point is to try and build up momentum

>>23821270
They said Project Red was a 2 year plan and if it doesn't work out "which clearly it isn't" they have other things to fall back on

If you like soap operas, give Kiva a try. It used to be infamous because of the love triangle bullshit that most of the characters get into, but I think most fans can look past that now that we've had worse shows

yeah insert aside, his main instrumental theme that plays whenever he jumps into action is probably one of my favorites too. I want more Riders to experiment into other music genres just like OOOs did with the ska (even if in that case it's more prominent with the opening).
>>
>>
>>23821397
Yeah, even though I like almost every Kamen Rider soundtrack I feel that Kotaro Nakagawa is the only one that actually experiments with genres (he composed Decade, W, OOO, Wizard, half of Driver's OST, half of Fuuto PI's OST and Revice)
Although Ex-Aid's OST made by tearbridge feels different from any toku
>>
>>
>>23821422
now that you mention him, I remember W having a jazzy soundtrack, they should bring him back for more stuff in the future. any idea what his contributions to Drive were? It's been a while since I watched the show.

I actually like Grand Zi-O, it feels like the dumb cousin to Complete and it sorta works, even down to having Zi-O itself on the forehead and Decade on the center of the chest.
