As much as I enjoyed the series I have to give it a 4 out of 5. The ending just killed it for me I understand that it all goes into the theme of friendship and all that but it all seemed so very anti-climatic to just say we forgive you now that we've run out of opportunities to kill you out right. Still one of the better seasons I've seen overall though.

The hell are you talking about? Did you think they weren't trying to kill the last boss when they blew a hole through his torso with the power cosmic...? Now, I'll grant that they could've kept a closer eye on him during his week-long death period, but that's just nitpicking. And if you're gonna do that, look no further than the moonchild who only came back to be in future crossovers...

Fourze could be very repetitive, and it had a lot of filler spruced throughout. But I loved the eclectic ideas, the energy of the characters, and core concept of it. It was a show about friendship, yeah, but more about empathy and keeping a positive attitude in the face of adversity. What better message could there be than that? Also there was golf nazis, pit-fighting fast food robots, and a secondary hero with no reservations about lifting up a teenage girl by sticking his head between her legs (never forget). And a main hero who fell in love with a robot slime girl that only ever mimicked him. It's those types of characters that anyone can relate to...

A 2. The main problem is that I didn't like Gennousuke and with Kengo limited in development due to major revelations late in the series that just left me... unsatisfied.

I agree the Fourze finale was anti-climatic and it ruined the whole awesome fight that happened. I don't agree with how the writers handled the last episode.

KITAAA!! I once said that I didn't think Hibiki could be de-throned from my list of favorites, but it has been demoted to 2nd place to make room for Fourze. Loved it from start to finish, even the final episode that you guys didn't seem to like that much :( .

I liked how Fourze was funny a lot of the times, but I would have liked for the back-up cast to have some more time to shine. Still, a good series.

I know this is very out there and is probably very insane to think of crossing this, but what if sometime in the future after the events of "Fourze", Gentarou got stuck in a worm hole type thingy and ended up as the "Space Dandy"?

I have to say I've been really, really disappointed with this one.

There's some good things in it : I like the intro, the main character is nice but a bit goofy, Meteor has a sweet design...But there's clearly a lack of good plot. I mean a REAL one. This one is a bit like the Wizard, it's nice to look at but you could see the episodes in a shuffle way, it's the same. All the highschool stuff is a bit annoying, the 200% shonen style was really getting on my nerves toward the end. But where the show fail really for me in a point of no return was when Gentarou died.

For 30 episodes, like nothing really important happens and then, BOUM, Meteor killed Fourze. So I was like "Oh...cool, now things are getting serious, Meteor is going to be a villain/mild villain, big changes are going to happen..." And then...No. Next episode Gentarou is alive, he's like "Oh you killed me, please be my buddy, some stuff like that happens..." And everything is back to normal. Plus the rest of the Kamen Rider Club (which I don't like, I feel like watching a Rider version of Buffy) is NOT EVEN STUNNED to see Gentarou alive. That's cool ! HE FUCKING DIED HOURS AGO IN FRONT OF THEM ! But no, no surprise.

And the end was...how to say...not even surprising considering the overall season.

2/5, because the Intro song kick ass and Gentarou is fun to watch (sometimes). But it's far, far from OOO, W, Blade, even Drive was way better than this one.
