There's also a whole bunch of transformation sequences that get weaponized - Kamen Rider Blade's shoots out an energy card when he transforms that then comes back and over him to complete the transformation, and there's a few times at least where it proceeds to plow straight into the monster and send them ass over teakettle. Kamen Rider W's super mode has a bird thing that will actively attack people to create some space for them to power up, etcera.

Regarding the above spoilers
There are certain episodes of Sailor Moon and Pretty Cure where the transformation sequence is skipped for time and/or because it was already shown and you can see that from the other characters' perspectives it happens instantly.
Lol what.
I'm familiar with the "actually very fast" and "some kind of barrier" versions. Never heard of a train running someone over for it.

You know how there were dinosaur themed seasons? And ninja themed seasons? And car themed seasons?
There was a train themed season.
It was supposedly quite awful.
And also infamous for having the... how to put this delicately... gigantic thrusting robot train penis.
Having actually watched that season, it was pretty good and had some incredible gags, like the mooks turning up with a whole bunch of sight-related objects to meance the heros... including one who's just holding a crystal ball. No idea where you're getting the quite awful from. (I mean, Super Sentai has never been high literature, and the last series i thought were genuinely really strong were Gokaiger and Shinkenger, but this was def one of the less bad things).
Oh, and one of the Villians had the same VA as LELOUCH VS BRITANNIA, plus a weaponized top hat (it was a boomerang, Oddjob style)
The train incident is entirely correct however.

It was childish because
Also the sixth ranger had this habit of dramatically turning up playing a harmonica, except one time he couldn't find it, so he turned up dramatically playing... a recorder. Que everyone else dying of laughter.
I will say that one of the big issues with TQGer is it was one of the first series to start really leaning into "The Red Ranger and also a few other bozos" that's been haunting the series for a while. It's actually weirdly funny - recent Kamen Riders have gotten more and more team-based or at least multi-rider based, while recent Sentai have gone hard on having the Red Ranger being the only one who actually matters.

For me there is an inescapable pressure between the show Gen wants to write (kamen rider ryuki 2, basically,) and the show toei wants him to make (anything but ryuki 2), and I think the choices made to escape that pressure are the wrong ones at basically every turn
Gaim's biggest crime is that his mid-season upgrade fucking slaps. Just excellent visual design all around, it looks great, and even the DJ turntable gun is weridly charming and works somehow.
And then his ultimate form is just whoooooof. Yeah.
I mean, i get it was based on a warlord but it's still an awful design, especially after Kachidoki arms

The show is for 6 year old so it can be childish yes
Or I'll die on the hill that Wizard was good actually.
In anime news, Yakuza babysitter reminds me that I kinda love Kirishima's design. It does a lot of work and with just some heavier lines and shadowing it transitions into a good menacing face
I disagree because OOOs is right after W.
After that, the only ones I don't think are hot garbage are Wizard and... Zero one?
I'm trying to think of the final forms i do like, post W...
Builds looks good when it's in action, didnt hold up in stills very well. Ex-Aid's Hyper Muteki was actually suprsingly good in motion as well. Zero-One's Zero-Two form was also great. OOO's has a couple of it's 3-match combos look great
most of the rest are dogshit though, just waay too hard on sticking bits and colors on and blaargh.

In another move that's too anime, they added a hot lady who gets naked once an episode, because the show killed off every female character except for one that's both plain looking and happily married. She looks completely out of place compared to everyone else, even with their more exaggerated new designs. Also, none of the original actors are involved to do the appropriate voices, not even the side characters that should really be easy to get. They did bring back the announcer, which is nice.
Everything considered, it seems like it'll be a fun show. But the very 2020s way it's being adapted isn't exactly what I was hoping for. I guess I'm willing to live with it to see animated versions of Santa-chan and Watcherman.
Toei seems to act like the all red one is, even though the Dino form got introduced at the traditional spot for a super form. To be fair, it does make thematic sense
OOOs is just generally weird, though.

Not quite official yet but seems true. Same with the below. Looks like Trigger is doing the Dungeon Meshi anime.
AniList
Space Sheriff Gavan actually made the whole transformation bit in episodes longer by showing it quick first, then the narrator winds back the clock and shows off the whole thing properly.
As for watching Gaim, it's good though you can probably skip it's crossover film with Wizard. DEFINITELY don't watch the Kamen Rider Taisen movie that the Gaim/ToQger crossover special led to as it's just the dumbest. It makes the Showa Riders complete jackasses, retcons part of Faiz's ending (though that DOES get followed up in the sequel film and more importantly it's epilogue mini-series), and had a 'vote for which side wins!' ending which pretty much both blow.
You will wanna watch Gaim's solo movie though even with it's bizarre premise of a setting since it actually ties into the show's ending.

The issue with the Movie War crossovers however is that half of them deals with the aftermath of the previous Rider show's ending, acting as an epilogue of sorts. It's thus hard to recommend them seeing as they'll end up spoiling the events of the previous show.

For the most part. Toei at times doesn't really keep continuity in mind when it comes to the Rider films. OOO's part of the Double/OOO film springs to mind.
