Re: W Countdown
There is always the chance that they'll have a double episode finale, no pun intended, to keep the whole two episode pattern going. Either that or their going to make one arc three episodes long.

Re: W Countdown
I, for one, really hope that they would drop the case format in the last few episodes and go on a total beatdown with the antagonists, Kamen Rider BLACK style XD.

Re: W Countdown
Most definitely. When they open up a new case, they get rid of the tension that was building up. I would still prefer having the number of letters in the alphabet x2 since every arc/case is two episodes. It's always great when the "monster of the week" thing gets interrupted by the final arc. That makes 100. I looked back and, that was quick.Guardian07 wrote:I, for one, really hope that they would drop the case format in the last few episodes and go on a total beatdown with the antagonists, Kamen Rider BLACK style XD.

Re: W Countdown
wow. that really is kind of depressing.
KR Double has really won me over, and I'm excited for KR O's and all, but its always an annual depressing moment when my protagonist changes over and I have to re-think everything about a new character. You would think that would make me a fan of Den-O with all its non-stop episodes and movies, but Den-O is one of my least favorites...maybe.
But I digress, I'm excited to see what we get out of these last few episodes. I think we can all agree that W has the potential for a pretty epic ending.

Re: W Countdown
Pardon the pun, but 49's an awfully odd number of episodes. 50 is common, 48 somewhat less, but 49 is pretty weird.
I don't suppose anyone knows TV Asahi's tendencies in terms of airing specials, do they? I'm only vaguely aware of their quiz shows and not much else.

Re: W Countdown
Maybe a "Double" episode special? How's that for a pun? That would actually even out things. Ok, fine, that's my last one.Joe_Mello wrote:Pardon the pun, but 49's an awfully odd number of episodes. 50 is common, 48 somewhat less, but 49 is pretty weird.

Re: W Countdown
Errr... not really. 50 isn't that common because of how often episodes are preempted. Den-O, Kabuto, Blade, and Kuuga all had 49 episodes. And with two months to go, there's still a chance an episode will get preempted. It's just 49 based on what's known for now
Also, people hope every year for a double episode finale, and it never happens. I just don't see it happening

Re: W Countdown
Kamen Rider has changed so much. It's still possible. All we can do is hope since they seem to have already made their plans. Faiz had 50, so we may hopefully get something even. It is Double after all.takenoko wrote:Errr... not really. 50 isn't that common because of how often episodes are preempted. Den-O, Kabuto, Blade, and Kuuga all had 49 episodes.

Re: W Countdown
Ah. I was coming at it from the perspective of TV semesters lasting 24-26 episodes and so KR as a year-long series would be twice that.takenoko wrote:Errr... not really. 50 isn't that common because of how often episodes are preempted.
