Yep. And we're only three more episodes I think into the series.
It'll be interesting to see how we'll see Zero-One (or Two at any rate) get out of that bad-guy funk.
Good grief, Izu's death is just brutal and then some.
Kamen rider: It's for kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiids!
Well the first Heisei series was about a Kamen Rider going up against a group of monsters that didn't have any actual world conquering or destroying goal. They were just serial murderers playing weird murder games. It took a while for the Heisei era to get more kid-friendly.

Oh i know, it just amuses me that it's advertised and clearly aimed at selling toys to kids, and simultaneously in between the goofy, has all this dark and ridiculous shenanigans going
They had the scene where 02 was fighting and surrounded by the bodies of all the humagears that'd returned to normal then later had Ark Zero surround by all the broken humangear melting into sludge.
This episode was really good.

Want to see a subbed Ultra stage show with a time traveling Zero and a pre-fall Belial?
I forgot if I've mentioned this but the Den-Liner crew were gonna appear as part of a movie-package this week, their film being called Kamen Rider Den-O: Pretty Den-O Appears! They weren't exactly kidding with the name if these pictures are any indication.
The film's about a girl named Anna who finds herself chased by Shocker for some reason only to escape on the Den-Liner with everyone heading back to the first year of the Heisei era, 1989. Seems like she'll end up getting a turn with the Den-O Driver before the film's over.
Finished watching Zi-O. Wasnt bad, but wasnt great either. also, ooof. That had some of the worst suit designs for a while.
I really wish they'd get past "Cram all the things" onto the suit to indicate to it's a combination of all proceeding powers. It always looks bad (except maybe for king form blade)

I liked the suits myself. Mind you, I kinda agree with the Final Form assessment you had.
Grand Zi-O's fine but the idea that it's still an incomplete Ohma Zi-O probably should have been taken further to the point where the solo movie's Ohma-Form would have been the proper final step. They've brought in movie-forms into a Kamen Rider series before so it wouldn't be that weird and I really like the 'purified' look Ohma-Form had in contrast to his bad future's appearance.
Next week's Kamen Rider Zero-One's gonna introduce a new form for a Rider.
Mind you, it's a repaint but it seems like Vulcan's gonna be using Naki's Key to achieve what comes off visually as a purified Assault Wolf. Though that begs the question of where Naki is and why they aren't using the Key themselves at the moment.
Kamen Rider Zero-One's squeezing in one more Rider into their ranks for the crossover movie it seems though we may see them in the final episode as well.
No clear idea of the character's deal or name though he does look appropriately villainish.
For my money, the best all in one suit they've done is Genius form, because it had a slick, clean aesthetic - it dosent look the best in stills, but it looks fantastic in action. Grand Zi-O is just too busy. Oma-Zio is a much, much better design.
The best all around suit design i'd have to give to Zero-One right now. Just so good with like the exception of a couple of vulcans forms? and even then i appreicate how Zero One/AIMS/MJ.net had such distinct looks between them all.
Looking foward to seeing how the movie goes! Been a damn good ride.

Agreed on all counts, though I'm not a fan of Ohma Zi-O. I do like the movie's Ohma form
Genius does look a lot better than it did in stills, though I think my favorite of the all-in-one forms is probably Gaim's Kiwami Arms (which is a step down from Kachidoki, but a good form on its own). Worst has got to be Ghost's Grateful (although basically every other suit in that show rules), with Grand Zi-O being very close, it's far too gaudy
I enjoyed Zero-One quite a bit and I'll agree that it has probably the best suits ever. 10/10 aesthetic, both visually and musically
And yeah, Noa was incredible, the highlight of the show. Would love for her career to take off
Ehh, i dislike Kiwami arms personally. Kachidoki arms was fantastic, and while i get that Kiwami is leaning into the samurai warlord asthetic even harder (at least, i believe it is?) to my western eyes, Kachidoki arms was way, way better. Especially on use of color.
Which is another thing Zero-One got really right, it's use of color on the armor - simple bold designs with simple bold colors was real good. Standout is probably MS.Net's armors, and i'm sad we didnt get to see more of them fighting as a full team of four. Zero-Two was also such a fantastic design, just so fucking clean
It'll be interesting to see how Zero-One will handle Zero-Two after the last episode.
According to what happened, Rising Hopper got turned into Realizing Hopper, a boosted version of Zero-One's base-form that's nearly as strong as Zero-Two. The Zero-Two Driver also may have been altered into a new Zero-One Driver and it's unclear if it can change back, leaving Zero-Two possibly unreachable and unneeded.
It's been 10 years since Kamen Rider OOO's aired and Toei wants to celebrate it starting today with some special stuff including words from it's actors.
One of those special items is a CSM release of a Cell Medal set alongside a 'Core Medal Extra' set and a reissue of the O-Medal Holder. More details about them as well as pre-ordering will be available on September 8th.

It’s been 10 years?!
Ugh, that’s a blast of cold reality to the face
OOO is definitely still my favorite. Great characters, both good guys and bad guys. Great suits designs, and no final upgrade that’s bloated or overdesigned. I love the whole medal economy. OOO’s abilities and the way they could mix and match was fun.

So far my reaction to Saber is waaaay too much CG. (Which, frankly, is something that KR sucks at - they never have good CG, and they do amazing practical effects generally).
I'll give it a couple more episodes, but it's leaving me pretty flat so far - not grabbing me the way Zero-One or Build Did.
“The kids at school are really into Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba,”
“What about Kamen Rider?”
“I think some of the boys like it,” her daughter said dismissively.
“You know, Mommy is Kamen Rider.”
To which her daughter reacted by going right back to talking about Demon Slayer.
“I really like Nezuko,” the child explained, professing her admiration for the anime’s female lead.
“I’m telling you, Mommy used to be Kamen Rider,”
“You mean you wish you were Kamen Rider?”
“No no, that’s not….”
Kamen Rider Femme's daughter sandbagged her super hard. The actress is now holding out hope her son will eventually think she's cool.
Odds are Kato still has several more years until that’s an aspect of the show her daughter will find appealing though, so for now she’s staking her hopes on her second child, a one-year-old boy, being a little more impressed when he learns about her part in the Kamen Rider legacy.
More news about Zero-One's solo-film came out today via a look at the new form we'll be seeing in it.
This is Zero-One's Hell Rising Hopper. No word yet on what it can do but it seems at the very least to be thematically opposed to the movie's villain, Kamen Rider Eden.
Some viewers feel that Kamen Rider Saber's songs oughta be switched around and someone apparently decided to see if that worked by putting the ending song over the opening.
Alright, Saber is just really bad. Or at least incredibly not for me.
I don't know why it's got a sentai dance ending now, but the new direction this is taking is either going to go well and really change the series going forward, or crash badly and cause next year's show to course correct super hard.

So far, it feels very much all sound and fury. Zero-One was way, way more grounded to start with, and set the stakes a lot more clearly? coherently? Unsure of the word i'm looking for.
The characters are amusing, but not enough so to carry it - and [pretty generic outside of their amusingness.. None of them are as instantly likeable as the Izu/Aruto dynami
Also the suits are just ugly. way way too visually busy. (Again, Zero One was so fucking clean. Those suits were sharp as hell)
Episode four having a 3 in one suit already and ooooh boy. It does not look good. Cmon guys, ya did OOOs, that did 3 in one so well.

I actually don’t mind the end dance, but I agree that the song they use should be for the opening credits. The current opening is way too slow
Mei is the best part of the show for me, she has such great reactions to everything. Rest of the cast seems Fine.
I definitely agree that we are getting way too much CG
