If you've seen Wizard's "All Dragon" arc, you can pretty much put it aside to watch it any later time. That was the highlight of the series and nothing after that even came close, except for the last two episodes but those are actually after Wizard's plot is essentially over and serve as the Hesei Rider's 15th anniversary.

Gaim is quite gripping and I find it interesting. It's never boring.
Of course it helps that being an orange, Kouta is far more fun than Haruto, who's a plain sugar doughnut. Also the preview teasers. Holy shit, Showa Riders vs Heisei Riders. And then, if that wasn't enough, who's playing Ichigo? That's right, FUJIOKA HIROSHI HIMSELF.

So I just finished two episodes of the Gaim and I can already tell it's better than Wizard. It feels a bit like a Blade.
That second Mai's an interesting matter too. As for Yuuya...I see two options for him: either he will return as a Kamen Rider, or he was this Inves from the first episode. I like costumes a lot too. Especially this 'White Rider' has an awesome one. Generally it was good idea to drop Wizard for this. |

I still don't understand how the heck Gen managed to condense all that was awesome about Kamen Rider, add his flavors, use SINGLE EPISODE ARCs (meaning he has to work DOUBLE of every Heisei Rider series director so far), and still throw in so much craziness with deep multidimensional characters?!

Many of the earlier Heisei-era series also had single-episode arcs, but what I do like about Gaim is that it's the first Kamen Rider series ever to break the monster-of-the-week formula. I mean, it's still somewhat there, but the attention has very much been shifted away from that in favor of fights between kamen riders.(even moreso than Kamen Rider Ryuki did)

Yeah, it's pretty funny since Knuckles looked like he was going to be Kaito's ally, but he's an actual hero of the people. I hope he gets a new lock seed soon though, the knuckles just aren't really doing it for me. I think it's the stark color contrast/clashing. Plus, it's a weak seed. Get at least a level 4 seed, man.

Zack is the only Rider who is actively patrolling the city in search for Inves and he's looking out for every Beat Rider, not just Team Gaim and Team Baron, so why doesn't Kouta give him either the Pineapple or Strawberry Locks which he never uses it? It would allow Zack to do a much better job as the Beat Rider's guardian and let Kouta focus more on the Yggdrasil issue. |

Project Ark, according to spoiler, is the mass production of Sengoku Drivers so that the people who Yggdrasil chooses will survive the incoming invasion. |

Amazing episode. And yeah, this episode confirmed what Project Ark is to mass produce the Sengoku Drivers so that one in seven people (based on their production schedule) can survive. Also seems like each Raiment has a special power. Cherry had super speed, but we never really saw anything unique from Lemon, so I assume it was either enhanced offense or defense (if it's one of these, I'd assume offense, with Melon likely being defense), or just all around "higher stats", from a video game perspective.
Kouta also totally punked Yoko. It was great. And Takatora brain-f***ed Kouta. |
