>and Neon joined the list of, uh, female Riders who didn't fall to that female Rider trope. Wait which one? If it's the one about them dying, Valkyrie didn't die either That was the only other one I know of; it’s not a very long list 😶 Credit where it’s due to Takahashi, in any case. One was workin...

Ace: "I've ascended to godhood." Everyone: "How??" Ace: "I promised my mom I'd ascend to godhood." (rides bike into the sunset and the villain) All said and done, this was perfectly alright ending. I was worried Ace would simply be resurrected with no lasting consequenc...

Yeah, that was the episode; I’d heard of him a couple places before, but I suspect anyone who watched that episode and didn’t know about him (nor the concurrent movie) would be extremely confused

He's a movie character. Won't be able to know his deal for 3-6 months when the Blu-ray/Digital release of the movie comes out. Yeah, some of those movie tie-ins really do seem to come from nowhere--after a relative finished watching Gaim, her biggest question was what was going on with that blue-re...

A show with fewer Riders would be good to have; as much as I liked Gaim and like Geats, I don’t want those to be the status quo. If every show’s a rider war, none of them is. Incidentally, found a better shot of the evil-looking guy: Via a Discord server: “Seems like we are getting a pseudo rider al...

Another teaser just dropped! https://youtu.be/8P4GfmNCb7g Random notes on it: Feels like one of the first times we've had more metallic (or at least shiny) suits? I feel a bit mixed on the look; I appreciate the increased reflectivity, but it's so clean it looks more artificial than the plastic-text...

Man, this was a good episode. Last episode TimeDad went through an inverse character arc to Keiwa by letting go of himself to save his family where Keiwa’s self-centerness failed. Here, Neon puts a spin on that by *accepting herself* to save her family, in a way that connotes self-love rather than p...

Update: We have our first images! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FztyHnCXwAAft7j?format=jpg&name=large https://news.tokunation.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/06/Gotchard-Driver.jpg https://news.tokunation.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/06/Gotchard-Weapon.jpg Given those images, it looks l...

This was a nice comparative breather after everything in the last episode. Some significant things still happened, like Nudge-Sparrow being retired and Sara surviving her first wild buffalo encounter, but a lot of this was more the characters hanging out. Sara and Neon feel a bit more authentic as f...

(Late, but) This could’ve been so good. The good: -The DGP is now Ryuki; I called something like this back in episode 4, but giving everyone time to bond before turning enemies helps change the context from a typical rider war -Ace using his speed power quickly enough to get out instead of exhaustin...

What a tease with Ben and John--not sure if it was intentional, but it'd be pretty hard to accidentally make a helmet for a one-time cameo and skip the existing characters :lol:. In fairness, though, hyping up Riders to retire them almost instantly would probably be equally awkward. Still holding ou...

Reminds me of when the BBC sent Doctor Who's 2013 discs early, so some of the ones who preordered knew the end reveal way before the finale aired. Yikes How far in advance did they send out the discs? That's a pretty funny case of the left hand not talking to the right Had to look it up, but it loo...

Looks like rips are out already.

After some discussion on the fixed happiness reveal, my watch party and I and decided it has the same problem a decision-driven multiverse does: what matters? Why help anyone? What's the point of doing anything? Only time will tell if that's just the way things are here; Keiwa certainly seems to dis...
