Nox has his own unique kind of capsems
Nox Knight/Lords have their own uniquely molded capsems
Dawn just has a normal capsem but with marbeled plastic
We were THIS close to each system having a unique form of item. Last time was what, Zi-O? Build and Drive also both managed to have each rider transform with different methods, Build especially for no one rider sharing a transformation method, even with v-cinema.
>>
>>
>>23765479
Zi-O had unique watches for Kamen Rider Woz and then the Future Riders each one with their own attachement to a "Mirai Driver" base, but Geiz, Tsukuyomi and the movie Riders were just using Zi-O Drivers with standard watches. And then there was Oma Zi-O, who also just uses standard Watches even though his belt wasn't a standard Zi-O Driver.

Geiz ridewatch had a unique bezel.
Honestly thinking about it its kinda fucked up that the guy from the future isn't the one using future rider powers. In fact it's even more fucked up that Tsukuyomi is also from the future but uses a standard ridewatch mold.
But anyway, the main 3 had differently molded items. I'm not gonna count Gavv since Chocodon is just a normal Gochizo.

I suppose you could. Even Zeztz' normal capsems are differentiated from rider capsems by being clear plastic instead of solid color.
But then that makes me remember Revice where marble coloring on vistamps meant nothing for rider affiliation (though that's for transformation vistamps rather than form change/weapon vistamps).
Idk, I'm autistic to shit and ideally i'd hope everyone would have their own unique sub-gimmick and Drive is to date the only show to have done that post-Gaim.

since i'm on the topic of complaining and never being satisfied with modern rider here's a video of the newly released memorial shinkenmaru to remind you that capsems are a failure at animations

His other Ridewatches were normal though, even the Wizard and Drive ones that were only ever used by him.
I thought you were talking about the collectibles in general, not just the main transformation item.

I mean, Woz isn't exactly from the present either.

>>23765611
Ngl if the Agito spoilers are true my hype is killed a bit. Because it is essentially Kamen Rider G3 V-Cinema with the budget of feature length movie. Don't get me wrong I love G3 to death but it would be weird if Agito doesn't transform.
>>
After Zeztz, I've come to the conclusion that there should never be another Rider without a belt of some sort around his waist ever again. Every Zeztz Rider would look objectively better with a proper belt around their waist. You can't convince me otherwise.
>>
>>23765501
The older swordsmen are more rational than the younger ones, as they should be. Even during Touma's fight with everyone, you could see they were on the defensive for most of it because they didn't want to escalate things.
Rintaro is also still a bro despite feeling very conflicted right now.

Let me tell you boys something about women:something about women.

>>23765126
The shoes I'll give you, but I disagree with the rest. Both Gavv and Valen are better for sure but I just think it executes the pudding theme really well, the spoon antennae are a cool way to represent the Rider antennae on such a wacky suit and the muted colour scheme of the rest of the body makes it all work and together as a cohesive trio they look great
>>23765128
I know it's trite to say but Valkyrie just doesn't really look like a Kamen Rider to me at all and looks way too strongly like another type of henshin hero or some sort of pseudo Rider/Rider kaijin. It's also just a bit plain and doesn't look quite as good as either Vulcan or Zero One's base form. Lightning Hornet has this problem for me too but I do like that suit a bit more
As for Espada, it's the circular headpiece mainly that does it for me, but I don't really like any of Saber's suits at all despite liking the season more than most oldhead fans generally do and defending it from time to time. It is one of the better suits in the show but the halo headpiece really does only look good from certain angles. I also just hate gold suits desu
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>23761442
Valkyrie resembles her animal motif more than Vulcan does but it feels like they were trying to design a Metal Hero and didn't quite finish.
Espada is probably the best suit of the main trio and one of the better ones out of Saber as a whole.
I know a lot of people are all Jeanne sexo but like most of Revice's suits it looks cheap and plasticky. It's telling that her helmet was visibly cracked and her boots were visibly falling apart towards the end of the show.
Na-Go is a clunky visual mess and suffers from the same naked bottom half problem as all of the Geats Riders.
Valvarad is also visually very chaotic and he's a step down from his Rival form, but at least his Rider form looks like an evolution of it.
Vram is probably the best Reiwa third so far. I dig the sort of Jet Set Radio thing he's got going on and he incorporates the pudding motif without looking ridiculous.
Dawn looks incomplete. Like you've got a decent start of an idea here, so finish it.
>>
>>23765764
>I know it's trite to say but Valkyrie just doesn't really look like a Kamen Rider to me at all
Oh yeah, because Vram's wacky ass clown design totally does.
>>23765776
>hates gold because it looks like piss
>likes the Rider that's colored like piss and has poop shoes
Absolutely insane. Are you sure you're judging purely based on aesthetics?
>>23765792
>I dig the sort of Jet Set Radio thing he's got going on
He's supposed to look "militaristic". Why they did they give him a chainsaw bow? I have no idea.
>he incorporates the pudding motif without looking ridiculous
He looks ridiculous as hell, he's got fucking spoons on his ears for god's sake.

Not that anon, and I don't care much for Vram's design, but there are a bunch of sci-fi designs that have similar ear accessories to the "spoons" in Vram's ears. That part of the design melded the theme with a cool design well enough.
I like his overall silhouette, it's the textureless yellow painting that ruins the design for me and makes it look cheap.

>>23765766
Basically what the other anon said, it rarely looks good but I just think gold if not in moderation or as accenting looks tacky no matter what. Kuuga's final form for example looks fantastic, and Zi-O's is so gaudy on purpose that it hits a so bad it's good threshold, but I think anything in the middle from Beast to Valkyrie to Gold Drive is all varying degrees of ugly. Same with Sentai Golds.
>>
>>23765804
I get what they're going for with the ears, but the spoon design is way too overt, so they end up looking too much like spoons instead of tacticool antennae. And that's like the "smartest" aspect of the whole design, Vram has the laziest and most overt snack motif integration out of the Gavv trio's design, they just slapped a bunch of overt pudding shit on his suit instead of making the pudding look subtler, cooler and more armor-esque. It's just like Gavv's marshmallow form but without the creative unique armor texture and silhouette to make up for it.
This is easily one of the worst-looking suits in the show.

It doesn't either yeah, none of this is the way I would like Riders to really look, but I just think Vram works better as a design for the aesthetic the show is going for and looks more unique. It's nowhere near my favourite suits

I remember how he got the blue medals... didn't use them, got them stolen, and then only finally used them after getting them back.

I think he didn't use the gray and blue Medals right away despite Gamel and Mezool being there since the beginning because their DX sets didn't come out until later, they didn't want OOO to shill those Medals until right around the time of their release.

The Hiden Industries arc AKA the Job Arc 2.0 lasted until episode 35. When Beroba took over as main villain in Geats, all she did was stall until the Heaven and Hell Game, and right after the Heaven and Hell Game we got a whole plot-stalling arc in the form of Desire Royale.

I'm so excited for my big xross saber, but man I gotta complain a little. It's so close to being a perfect release, but the fact they only put in 3 BGM, and the only one of the 3 with lyrics isnt even the full song bothers me. They really cheaped out there. It wouldnt bother me as much if it cost the same as the swordriver but it's like almost twice the price of it I think? Aside from that the thing looks fantastic and all the other sounds in it are 10/10.

If Takahashi weren't a hack, Three's appearance and attitude would be a great way to show what happens to a person who spends too long in CODE.

The show is now improving because it's Takahashi working on the environment he's most comfortable in, last week was awesome too and that wasn't Kami

Doesn't seem so since the show should be almost done filming considering how early they started and the staff talking about the show changing into fully serialized in the second half since before the show even started airing
It seems this was the producer's intention from the beginning but the second OP idea might have been a suggestion by Minato?

Presumably they would have done it with the show as a way to hide the twist. Especially since the picture would require... you know, someone on the show giving them the flowers to make the bit work. Then just follow it up with "man, what a weird dream I had" after the episode.
Also, I once saw an actress post a birthday cake she received as a gift while working on a show and fans were convinced for months she was leaving despite the words "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" being written on it and at no point were they asked to take it down so it's not that serious my man.

2chan is hating hard on this week's episode, they're blasting Takahashi by saying stuff like:
>What do you expect from Takahashi Rider? It's pointless to expect anything from an amateur writer who hasn't written a single decent work so far and can't even stick to the setting.
>It seems like everything that's happened up until now has been a dream, so Yuya-kun is feeling disheartened, so please stop writing, okay?
How are the Japs' opinions in other places?
>>
>>23767224
Japanese chan boards are always way more harsh then the SNS users like on Twitter, it's like here also compared to Twitter and the like.
They're probably just mostly annoyed that the first act was entirely a premonition dream the whole time.

Okay, theory time on how this will all end: I expect in the series finale that Baku will wake up again to where he started in episode 1... but instead of continuing his missions, he will destroy his gear, which is the true source of the dream world. Remember how we're no longer getting crossover movies since Gavv? This tradition would continue, but this time, one Rider will be lost forever.

>>23767531
The meteor makes no sense, as if it had succeeded, then the "free world" they'd live in would be a Fallout-type world at best, and a completely uninhabitable planet at worst. If his goal is to stop the tiime loops, then that means he fully intended to murder children, women and destroy cities to stop it. So if he had won, then the time loop stops, and all the people he killed would stay dead.
Shocker minions have been killed for less.

https://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/zeztz/story/0025/
>>
>>23767532
I don't think it's a time loop, more like some kind of artificial dream world with dreams within dreams, likely controlled by CODE at the highest level, whatever that level is.
Zero and 3 talk about a "CODE:Somnia" project in the preview, and Somnia means "Dreams".
Baku destroyed the nightmare world to get back into "reality", so that might have been the intent there. Destroying this world to get to a higher level.
>>
>23767558
But Baku didn't destroy the fake world; he died. So it's more like he woke up from a dream into reality, and everything that happened was just in a dream situation.
I guess the implication is that everyone we've met since episode 1 is just a dream copy of real people, but Nox seems to retain his rider form, and both Three and Zero have some knowledge of what's going on. So I guess everyone was fake except the agents? Even then, both Nox and Three seemed pretty serious in executing their targets, so were they actually dream versions too?

The fuck are you on about? They brought back every MBJ from the dead, Izu got killed and returned, same for every other Humagear that got killed.

I guess comparatively. But if Horobi is back, nothing is stopping the others from returning as well. And if you dismiss outside series material, those movies can be dismissed too. Only reason Fuwa doesn’t come back is because the actor went away.

It's all Baku's dream, soI have a feeling they don't know at all what happened in it but they might be aware something's off. I have a feeling Nox may be the only one that will remember what happened since he's kinda similar in position to Baku and his cryptic bullshit was probably part of that. I do wonder if that's why they team up or if Baku ends up seeking out Nox and convinces him to partner up with the stuff he saw in his dream.
>>23767528
Honestly, I'm glad that we'll actually start to get to see Zeztz and Nox partner up. I wonder if we'll get a hype triple henshin like in Faiz and Kabuto with Zeztz, Nox, and Dawn finally working together towards the end.
>>
>>
>>
>>23767749
I mean it did drag a lot, but it does seem like Yanaka and Takahashi did want to deliberately make two separate halves if the show. The first half is the setup and the initial flow of the story, then the second half is the redo where we start over but with all the knowledge from the previous attempt. It's honestly really cool, but man I really wish we didn't have to sit through those boring two parter missions. I'll forgive it though if it ends up getting consistently better and better from this point kinda like how Saber kept the momentum going in the second half, but it's hard to say with Takahashi and at least with Saber the story started moving along at Q2 instead of Q3.
>>
>>23767558
Yeah, we are doing Kamen Rider Inception. They made a Dream world because something happened in the Real World, but people can still dream in the dream. 2 probably realized that humanities collective dream created the Nightmares because it wishes to wake up. So she's trying to fulfill that wish. Nem and Baku together will wake up the world.

Saber's story was moving along since the very beginning. It was moving way too fast, in fact, with the subsequent quarters slowing things down to a more enjoyable pace.

I actually don't think he plays videogames? Ex-Aid tv had extra research for that due to the theme, but even in the V-Cinemas you could see some odd stuff, like Drago Knight Hunter Z going from sounding like a monster hunter clone in the tv show (4 player co-op play) to a one vs one arena fighting game in the V-Cinemas.

He never explains what's actually wrong with the world other than it being "twisted by CODE", nor how CODE is evil until Baku finds out for himself, while also doing a bunch of shit that looks much more evil to everyone but himself.

>>23768081
The characters other than Baku might regain the info they got during the shitty dream half, but Nox and the others are not going to go back to being dead, at least not without being killed a second time.

Genuinely interested in how the plot progresses, can't figure out why the story would reset if CODE was done with Baku, or why they'd let him continue running around as Zeztz even in a dream within a dream within a dream.
>>
>>23768325
It was a premonition of sorts to allow Baku to learn CODE is evil without losing anything important. I don't think CODE will be aware of it (though they will probably realize something's off), unless they're either retarded or playing the long game since they're technically back at square one in regards to their plans involving Nem and The Lady.
