Power Rangers Fan Reacts To Introduction to Kamen Rider (2020) For The First Time!

I know you don’t like being spoiled, so I’m going to try and be as vague as I can whilst still being somewhat informative but one thing I think should be mentioned is how movies and crossovers between Kamen Riders may be approached. Unlike what you might normally expect from something like say ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ or ‘Batman v Superman’ where there is a singular plot involving both characters, with Kamen Rider they can be split into 3 parts almost like standalone episodes, with 2 parts focusing on each Rider individually and then the third being the actual crossover. The reason I bring this up is that the events of these movies can be treated as canon and may at times resolve plot lines from the series you could be watching. For example, one of the series ChatGPT recommended to you was Kamen Rider W/Double which has a Movie crossover with the Kamen Rider prior to him, Kamen Rider Decade called: ‘Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider W & Decade: Movie War 2010’ As I mentioned before, this can and is split into 3 parts. Part 1 focuses on Kamen Rider Decade and is set after the end of his series. Part 2 focuses on W/Double and takes place after Episode 12 of Kamen Rider W/Double. And of course Part 3 is the crossover. So if you’re watching a series and find yourself wondering whether or not you skipped an episode because something has happened that you don’t seem to remember, chances are it happened in a movie.
I adore W, the two people as one rider concept is just so fun imo
Kamen Rider Joker and Skull also have two of my favorite suits in terms of how slick they are. Skull having that Fedora!
Kamen Rider Geats is PEAK! But maybe save that as your 2nd series, as you don't want to start with PEAK. It's been my profile pic ever since I joined your Patreon. I like to call it a mix between Squid Game, Future Diary, and The Real World reality show. There a bit of Truman Show in that one. Geats is a nine Tailed fox. While most Kamen Riders use swords, he uses handguns from his hands and feet like Bayonetta.
Thank you
Kamen Rider Fourze is made by Studio Trigger (during the awkward time when they got fired from Gainax and before they formed independent Trigger). It's what they did between Gurren Lagann and Kill La Kill. A tagline could be "What if Kamina was the main character of Kill La Kill" as it actually combines both being the in-between. The main character is Kamina-like, and his Rider Kick is a drill that can pierce the heavens (really, as in his foot becomes Lagann)
Sounds good. Thank you
One good one you might like based off stuff you already saw, is Kamen Rider Gavv. The main character is a alien who is like a newborn, but uses his powers to stop human trafficking and drug cartels. It's a combination of Masked Rider (that you watched) and Snowfall. It's dark like Snowfall with similar stories.
For YouTube views, Chat GPT is kinda right about Build, especially since it's one of the most popular KR series for men and women. The wide base loves the scale, writing, drama, and fight scenes. The female audience for Build got really into the dramatic storylines and heavy BL writing (Kamen Rider actually does well in the female demographic, a lot of times due to "pretty boys" and BL sprinkled in). The joke about Build is "You can't spell Build without BL"
Yup. Thank you
Gaim is one I recommended you, director, and Adorkable in the past. Reason being, was I loved your Madoka Magica reaction because you guys saw the biblical stuff that most viewers wouldn't catch, you guys being fellow church kids (my dad was a preacher). Gaim expands on Madoka and you guys would definitely also catch the biblical allusions there. The main character is a fruit samurai (from the Garden of Eden). They do things like Cain and Abel. There's a Tower of Babel. Noah's arc. I'm a part of the Toku community but most don't know about the Bible stuff Gen Urobuchi is referencing. You'd get it, I'm sure based off your Modaka rxn
Thank you
As your local American Kamen Rider fan, ChatGPT actually gave you a solid list. Build is a good starter and shows how high-stakes Kamen Rider can get. W is another great starter, a combination of anime and JDrama with stellar emotion and acting. Gaim is dark AF, it's written by the writer of Madoka Magica and is just as good!
Thank you
HENSHIN!!!
