Kamen Rider Popularity vs Super Sentai

[KickHopper]

I gave up Sentai when I found Kamen Rider. I found that, IMO, after seeing Blade, there was simply no reason to waste anymore time on a comparatively immature series like Dekaranger. I watched a few episodes of Magiranger after that, but really have not gone back to Sentai since.

As I said in my post, it's hard to just up and throw out Sentai completely, because each year is something completely different. I always give Sentai shows a good 5 eps at least to see if I'll like it, sometimes even more just to be sure.

I'll admit that only every other year I enjoy sentai, couldn't stand goonger or boukenger.

I dunno, something about the lone-wolf feel of Kamen Rider draws me to it. Don't get me wrong, Sentai is awesome and all, but it feels crammed since they have to develop 5 (or 3) main characters. Sentai also ends up giving preference to "red leader" often overshadowing the other rangers. At least in Shinkenger, it makes sense that the red guy is more prominent.

As for the future rider question, I'd like to see a rider wherein they actually use their motorcycles in battle. I dunno, something like a Honda CBR1000RR transforming into a big sword (or rifle).

Autovaijin?

Autovaijin?

Referring to me right? Hmm... something along those lines. But more of an actual weapon rather than a Deus ex machina.

That's kind of been replaced by train and castle battle recently but I really hope we see it somemore and something about double design makes me think we will.

Don't forget IXA's tractor.

I think we are supposed to forget his two appearance crane tractor dragon with three bombs and an unprotected drivers seat.

I think I downloaded the first episode of Shinkenger and watched it. I don't even remember what happened, but I remembered that what made me download it was the fact that it was HD.

And about IXA"s tractor... I think we only saw it twice because Diesel prices were really high in 2008...lmao.

How are motorcycles deus ex machina?

I think he means how autojavin comes in vs how blue spader has a rouser to enhance it

I never understand what you're trying to say

I looked back and saw he was refering to how autojavin would fly in with it's machine gun firing and he wants to see bikes as an enhancement to the riders abilities like how in blade there was a rouser to slide in cards to power the bike up. I have to agree about how awesome a well done bike is like in blade or in kuuga but I won't go into that how awesome kuuga was with bikes.

Sorry for the confusion. When I said motorcycles as Deus ex machina I meant Autovajin. That thing usually comes out of nowhere (or wherever the bike was parked) whenever Faiz (or Mari) was in trouble.

Actually that comment was addressed to antiemo19. I understand what you mean now, thanks for the clarification
