I do want to note, that I had watched this movie first then I watched the special shorts.
Ahhh, the goons of Den-O, does Nagomi Ryutaros actor, Satoh Takeru return? I heard its the same as Joe Odagiri
Huh??? How come they did that?!
Oh! It's future Den-O
Kotarou is his name? If I remember correctly
OOOOO! We lookign for Ichigou and Nigou?
How come they're not kicked out? They don't have a pass?
I'm trying to rememebr if it was November when Hongo was kidnapped or not...
I thought we went pass the countdown thing?
Omg not the Shocker grunt getting it
Did the Shocker do a hostile takeover?
Lmao they definently got back from AnkhŸep! Guessed it right
The kids really had them with a fiddle
Man, that's such a Showa Cyborg to do lol
Jeey, this feels too real of the warning man...
AHHHH APPOLO GIEST?!?! YOUR A LEADEER??? GOOD GOOOD! You deserve to be a leader than the Kingdark whatevre!!!
Ah nvm, the king dark is still there. sigh... if I see ApolloGiest fighting, he better have the same aura he had in X
Come on Kamen Rider.... this would be the best timing...
Oooh! Eiji has some!!!
THE RIDERS ARE WHAT?!
NIGOU ICHIGOU?! YEYEYEEYE
or not??? they're Shoker Rider?!???
BLADE?!
Oh right, Iforgot about General Shadow...
Lmao that one Shocker grunt doing a cartwheel
Shocker Greed?
NOOOOO Not the brainwash 😭
Although that means V3 wasn't able to exist... I know the other showa riders could exist (Idk beyong Stronger sicne I have seen theri origins yet)
Awww what? I mean... that makes sense, but why not? X still has his dad to modify him. Amazon might be still in the forest, and Stronger could still do his duped... It's just V3 I don't see existing
Althought the implications that Hongo and Hayato, asuming still original, they're forever ensalved to enternity. They're immortal. I wonder how they'll react to the sins that they were forced to commit...
Don't stare at me whey you say that Owner....
VOLLYBALL HIM DOWN!
Great... now more medals are lost...
Oh Taros... How I miss your chaotic nature on solving an issue lol
Oh! She's part of the Kamen Rider Souts!
Here comes the cavelry!
I forgot how they've been effective
General Black? Either I don't remember him or he's part of the Showa Roster I haven't seen yet
Oh! Different sound?
Yeah, I totally forgot how effective these trained children are... I mean we've seen their training afterall
YEAHHHHHHH LET'S GO RIDER
Back in the times were the rider kill the grunts as well
I haven't seen that Kaijin yet
That some real Showa thinking right there lol. Always works!
Also I'm pretty sure 5 had flown not 4...
Sometimes I think I wouldn't be able to appricciet the movie at it's fullest if I havent watched a bunch of Showa Seasons before...
Right, another Showa BS lol
Another Shocker BS. Either due mechanical built or through Magic....
Lmao. Momotaros
Rider Punch!
Classic line! "Those who see me must die!"
THE STAKEs! AHHHH Truly rider!
Where's Ankh?
OMG! The stakes!!!
This is one good movie! Ahhh I'm so glad I watched some of the Showa's to appriciate this
Welp, Eiji have killed some grunts
Ah??? Why is Momotaros a hand???
Also dont worry about the DenLier, surely the Zero-Liner is still there!
now what horriblething they turned teddy into...
Did Naoki fought with Teddy?
man these are chills...
this is a dark movie...
Death march?
Public Execution?! Geez, I know its a Kamen Rider movie, I'm still surprised by them....
ICHIGOU????
NIGOU???
I bet they're not mind control!
Yes! Exactly like them! Laughing at the faces of Shocker!
Yeah... but for 40 years? I can only imagine their mental health...
Man thios is a good movie
I wonder if this was a good public interactive event... If so that's so cool
V3?!
Wair are we all having others?! Since when they're able to get V3??
Riderman!
X!
Man the standing ovation of these are is powerful!
Geez Ankh, what if that medal is destroyed, its not even supposed to exist
??? Since when Imagin has a medal???
What in a the Kamekameha BS is this
Alright, J, it's your time to shine. Go big just like in the Decade Movie
In true Showa BS, the'res alway a greater leader behind the great evil leader
man... I didnt get much from Apollogiest besides him being always right
Secondary Riders?!?
I'm taking a good look on this
Freaking Odin is here???
Femme!!! She's here! THATS GREAT!
How come Dark Kabuto?
I didnt see Accel
Im not sur eif all is there, I think I saw some movie specials as well
OMG RIDER CYCLES!!!
This is absurd as the rider kicks from Decade's movie. And I love it
Naoki???
Mitsuru's father is Naoki???
oh.. no need to drop the ball of knowdled, but its still pretty emotional...
so it's a closed time loop then?
This is a pretty good movie ngl! I'm not sure if my bais is talking or not, but if you had watched the ---wait is that credits shaped as Ichigou---anyway, i need this credit song save. But As I was saying, A showa watcher would enjoy this movie! I've heard about the dreadful Heisei vs Showa, so this might be a pallete clenser!
I wonder in a timeline, i wouldn't be enjoy to the max if I didn't watched some of Showa, but eh, I regret nothing!
Have I completely watched all W content? No. I can visit those back if I want to, same thing with any other rider series. Anyway, I've been in the mood to start watching OOO. Obviously, this was one of the most recommended and spoiler-filled pieces of Kamen Rider I have ever gotten. Thanks for that TikTok. I know Den-O would have a crossover episode with this... I know about the two men in the trio, no information on the girl tho. And something about running away? IDK man. Once again, the casual tag of this would be #000 Live
I only note things down if there's interesting to say or when I particularly need to focus on the episode. If there's barely any words, either I'm too locked in and need to watch the whole thing, obvi I will give my final thoughts by the end of ep, and if there's no descriptor that means I'm too weirded out by the episode and have nothing to say.
EPISODE 1:
To start things off, who knew OOO was connected to W lol. I didn't expect the same universe. I thought it would be the last with Agito and Kuuga
Weird medallion intro, sure
Police men investigyting sure
Or not policement? Robbers?
Is the actual policeman an important figure?
The medals are forming....
Ooening the tomb I see, will this be Akh I hear about?
What is with the vending machine
Motor cycles?!
So, the medallions are the bad gus? I thought they were used for Eiji...
The green one looks like Joker
Oh the policeman is Eiji! WOnder if this was the naked scene of him infront of th epolicemen come from
New birth for a new age I persume?
Oh! The medallions are seitenant! I think I remember seeing a spoiler for that? Or not?
Oh, so this was the scene I was spoiled on lol. The edit made it seem like its a SUPER spoiler lol
Skipping the intro that will be watched later
Eiji... please do wear clothes
Why are they super nonchalant about this
The fanart of him I saw was him with a hancherif and a stick.. typical running away style and his brief too... Is he evn running away if he just packs things that way??
That looks like a good cake, looks very creamy
kougami foundation, let's note that down
Dramatic flourish clothing
So... the fake vending machines is just scarred public use? Smart to see but... isn't...ah well, cna't judge too early ig, but this isn't how he transformed in the movie... well introduction
Wow! She's strong
I'm guessing Ankh is that red madallion. He's a red bird right?
Are we getting more police, actually police stuff in this show?
Won't give , Ankh a hand now lol
Good aim, Eiji
Pretty sure he doesn't have enough greed nor desire for you Ankh
Is this like card system? Th emore you gather, the more powerful you'll be? (I'm genariling, but you get it if you watched BLADE)
totally like a video game like, enemy spewing coins
Aren't there 101 combinations?
Oh, I didn't expect that. No wonder he looks so familiar. It was Ankh all a long
Our secondary rider? or just almost secondary rider too? He really looks like a rider ngl
EPISODE 2:
Ngl I thought the officier was looking like Hajime but not quite, then realised, ahhhh, no wonder. It's Ankh
Watching the intro, what an upbeat song
Ok noted, wathcing the intro is doable, don't watch a bit of afterwards, spoilers for th eepisode goinf to be... sigh, what a sad thing to bring back after having hope with W...
Ankh... so this is what they mean "evil" lol
So, feed the body?
Yummy?
What kind of institution of hiring is that??? Weights???
Wow. viking or pirate gimmick?
Bother and sister angst, I see? I saw the intro Ankh to have a reaction, so I wonder...
money greed I see. Will this be another mantis?
So, is this really the head of Foundation X or will this be another different org?
Gotou reminds me of Ichimonji... his back at least, pose everyhtign like that and hair
What an eccentric man
Ew gross! That looks a terrible bug!
Ah, so this is "evil" Ankh?
... so many casualties of all sorts
Right, he travelled around. Funny enough, reminds me of Godai and Ichimonji on this. Travelling around to see such warring faces
So... why does it have to be specifically Eiji to transform for Ankh?
You know, it's a good thing Eiji is naturally not suspiciois person and just accepted things the way people are nice to him, despit eintentions and all, or else the Head of Kougami Foundations would be... idk?
Ngl, what happened to the urgent feeling for the gaint Yummy? or collapsing buildings?
LMAO, Ankh at the side gulping the medals down
They really going big on this Kamen Rider season.... so much destruction already
So, she won't question at the sudden haircut her older brother got?
RIP, all of Eiji's fake out for nothing lol
EPISODE 3:
Ankh your very dramatic...
Kick his ass Hina!
Ah...
This one has a very comedic tone, but I know Kamen Rider. It's silly but it hits you
Wow, really dropped to the serious voice lol
The cheetah reminds me of HxH cheetah Chimeria ant
Gluttony? That's the desire here?
Either way, that's very impressive! To eat that much!
Indian theme now?
His eyes have seen some shit
Truly, Eiji's goodness isn't endless, or rather, understanding and irritation of your attitude, Ankh
What a great guy, appreciating food
Ngl I like his outfit
Hey now, why transforming him? Are there different Yummy's?
So, the sword is just part of the transformation now? How did the company managed to do that?
Our benefactor is here!!!
So... is Gotou just an assigned bodygaur/helper for OOO?
... So... your way to evolve is just learning more info about the world via your host memories that you didn't bother looking because its beneath your kinds... intellect?
Is Ankh, Greed?
So the president personally make the cakes?
So basically.... boomer Ankh
Hina, go kick his ass!
An iPhone?!
Ankh you really look ike an ominious gremlin...
His desires were pretty regulated you know
A fat cat really? There could be other ways but alright.
EPISODE 4:
How did Eji know about Greed? How come we didn't get a run down and instead he got an off screen one...
Is Anhk playing? Simply for the benefit of having it over Eiji?
Hiding some information huh, Ankh?
Eiji really can't catch a break
Also poor civilian as welll. Even if things do get normal, his social standing is ruined now
Yay! Truth is out!
So, either Ankh has a sweet tooth or likes ice cream alot. Or influence by Shingo influence?
Eiji really reminds of Godai. Well, obviously they're still different but their values the same for me
Yeah, his social standing is totally ruined
Other than social standing... this civilian now might have an eating disorder as well...
Age of information during that time
Why repeat "Even if I die?" geez. ominous statement. Will Eiji take that to heart?
Why did Ankh eyes widen?
Dramatic entrance?
So, Two Ankh medals, One Uva, Two Cheetah, Two Tigers? WHose the tiger?
EPISODE 5:
Eiji...
For a moment I thougth this guy was a Grongi with his vibes but it's just a teen
Hideout?
Yo, what is this gangsta teens doing?
Oh! I was correct on Grongi vibes!
Are we doing Grongi style hide out and outfits? Tho you guys are. abit modern...
Welp... if she has the money Ig?
Gotou isnt really Ichimonji but his back and hair reminds me of him ngl
Mezeeol is a shark? Ah no, Killer whale
Ngl, I like Eiji's loose clothes, it looks very comfy
Is acting this cheery some copiing Mechanism of Eiji or what? Because he'd seen what humans can do...
I also love Hina's outfit! Especially the belt part. Gender envy right there
Coping with humor, horray!
So, three mantist? Well, kinda mantist looking at the symbols closesly... But I thought the max is 3? Doesnt the cheetah one have the other one?
EPISODE 7
To note for ep 6, only thoughts is how CGI is used in this season of Kamen Rider, I knew it was similar to Hibiki in terms of... well the little helpers and monsters. Kaiju at least. Also very Godai like to just casually reveal himself. I like Kamen Riders who don't hide their true identities. While it may give good plot, but frankly I hate secret identities with a passion seeing how many fumbled...
We're.... Japanese theme...?
Ah Edo period
Wow, truly reminiscent of the grongis
There are how many?! Why are there so many?!.... I now understand why there are 101 forms...
Huh, wonder why Eiji is refusing....
I sincerly feel like Gotou is a secondary rider...
Aw don't worry Eiji, your not as bad as that gambling addict! No ned to apologise
Ankh gotta figure out that fake information exists on the internet lol.
I wonder if the foundation will save the day for Ankh
Ah it saved the day for OOO
Lion is part of Mezeeol??? Assuming with the blue
Wonder Gotou's backstory would be....
What in the property destruction...
Ankh is in a tizz. I should've seen this coming of them getting their core back honestly and succeded (presume). Tho i bet on it. Gotta powerup the mini-bosses before taking down th ehuge corp down!
Episode 8:
Welp... the poor body of Shinog
Mezool... I've been misspelling her name... whoops
What happens if they have no core at all? I see they have no exterior armour or rather incomplete forms but still. Will they sealed easily?
Yeah, not a good example Eiji
Hehehe, Ankh getting bullied by kids
Oooo, what a unique way to start a fire! I haven't seen that way before!
I like Shred Eiji ngl lol. His cheery face is fine and all, but its weird on fake situations. or is it more funyy?
Oho? pausing to travel? finding himself? What exactly... I do want to explore more what exactly Eiji feel via that flashbacks since we pretty got a solid base of his character. although... annoylingly enough, I don't think I can give justice to what I feel his character is and his mindset.
I guess they're really husband and wife! She accurate knows him so well!
Huh... guess as long both sides can reach an understanding... it can work out
Lmao how cute of Eiji to do this
What a funny dynamic these two have
Can you change placement for the medals or no? Mantis must be body or Lion must be head?
By the way... where did Ankh had that tablet? From Shigon's own savings? Or given by the Kougami foundation. if it was given by the foundation, that' just given access on how many cores there are, Ankh
I really feel like its just about Ankh though, there are other reasons why Eiji refused
Shake him out, Hina!
EPISODE 9:
Halloween theme already?
It's Halloween already???
YOU TELL HIM HINA!!!
Lmao the eye twicth
Not, um... Owner communicating with Eiji about Ankh lol (what's her name???)
Chiyoko! Yes I'll remember that name. She's funny and Lively as Aunt from Ryuki
Great job at the story Eiji!
What a sharp business man...
BOMB?!
Hydro bomb?
So, is this Mezool's Yummy? It's water related, but this doesnt fit her MO...
I'm right on whose Yummy this was, but it's still blatant for my understanding. Unless, we were too late stop hence so sudden?
You sure it's not a desire to destroy others? Jealousy of sorts?
I like the fact Kazari didn't immediately assume it was Ankh who gave that medal to OOO
Oooo, scarf Eiji! He'sno closer like his introduction movie appearance!
Eiji is very intimately familiar with what a bomb sounds like
Survivor's guilt
Huh, taking agood look, Mezool and Galem is pretty missing an amours. So, no cores yet?
How is this combo more powerful than Uva's???
Ahhh, so Mezool do have core. which she lost terribly sore
Is he a member of the foundation? X of Kougami? more likely the latter
Ah yes, of course he's part of Kougami foundation. Still curious on X tho
EPISODE 10:
I mean, it's ten years. It should be grand. First hitting the double digits
NOOT NOOT
Mezool seems to be quite generous ngl
Hina is a very sensible person
This isn't even a good desire, can't he just want to watch explosive movies instead?
Second Rider energy right there!
It almost came to your end
What a stenage individual reaction
Ah, I want to read a fanfic where Eiji and Godia interact...
Honestly, what's with people confusing idiocy with kindness?
Lmao, get ragdolled Ankh!
I need to replay that lol
Lmao not Hina and Eiji enjoying this
We gotta keep humbling Ankh's ass lol.
EPISODE 11:
That's a new undwer, right?
Good timing for a Thailand theme
What a Godai Yusuke line!
Does Gotou have Mytra complex?
Keeping one?
Or not, just for dramatic guy
UHu sure whatever Maki, but I do fel at one point a Greed would approach Gotou
It seems like your a dictator celebraty
It just talking well, maybe they like a duo
Go Hina!
Oop, gguess cheeta feet also have problems with drfiting lol
Ok Gotou that's your fault he failed
Ok, I have no idea how this happened but my reaction for episode 11 - 12 are gone + the movie with W. Which sucks sine I like looking back to my reactions but eh. I think I mentioned alot how Eiji really reminds me of Godai, but not in a way of Godai sense, but in his sense of value and motivations. And the damn "The Sky is Blue" line?!
EPISDOE 13
Western huh?
I love women in this season. They're treated quite right after the long drought
Medical mal practice then?
I used to have the same sewing machine
Get humbled Ankh lol
Mysonist surely why they won't let her operate. Ugh. They felt threatened
Yeah..l medical mal practice
Oh, I thought we already established Gotou is Kamen Rider Birth?
Yeah I was surprised at the combo too
So, stamina issue?
Oh solved right away
The greedy one is the director if anything.
Goodness, scaring children now, Ankh
All I see misogynistic take on not letting her operate. Unless there's some sort of twist. But good luck convincing me the reason is good.
Seriously? Cat and sexy too? Sigh. I win some I lose some with women writing...
Why dramatic placement of the medals?
We sure have music now, very upbeat
Still baffles me on the wreck but still got fixed...
EPISODE 14
I really don't care if the director dies, unless there's a good reason but he hasn't shown any
The reason why she isn't allowed to operate because she isn't ready? Ready to handle the harsh reality that she can't save everyone? I'm guessing these, and if that's the protection he wants to give, pretty terrible, a doctor knows these risks already. Prep from med school and everything.
Well, yeah. From a perspective, it looks like your threatened by her and not caring for actual patients thoughts. Additionally, do they even have consent from patients family?
Quick! Korgi! Humble that bird,
The poor subordinate
I like the difference of work and casual Satonaka's outfit
I like the drapes these Greeds have
Honestly, all the docs know, a miracle just happened infront of their eyes when Ankh took over
Yeah!not out of spite but misogyny!
I have thought about this, father and all but I still think misogyny.
Isn't there a rule a family member can perform on their family in case for emotional complications?
Ehhh, sure alorhgt, let's go with these reasonings
Left pride then you'll give birth a new you
EPISODE 15:
Ok, it took some time beacue the usual tokusatsu website I used is down and it seems like its down for everyone. I painstakenly exhuasted my options and here we are.
Wow, we're flying through the seasons
WHy is she trapped in there?
Welp, at least they tried
Thank goodness for Hina's strength
YEAHHHH!
Awwww
What a mess
A chance to prove himselg? Gotou I mean, for being Kamen Rider birth?
Of course to take the smart one first...
I do think that all kill talk
A yes, fighting the best way to forgive
Ooo, what understanding they had in the fight?
LMAO TRHE ICE CRREAM ADDICTION?!
New form!
You know, the cheeta form bike can fly? I didn't know that till the movie. it was shocking like wdym a cheeta theme can fly???
Oh hey Gotou! I was wondering were you were
Oh? Gamel as the vessel? Makese sense
EPISODE 16:
Lmao, effective care work, Hina!
Desire is the salvation and ending. It just depends on the desire to be applied to the world. Some unsavory soome noble.
Seriously? Man, Girl run!
Haha, greedy existence
Hold on to your Pride Gotou!
Wow, coincidental stumbling?
Understanble that Gamel gets overwhelmed and overstimulated in this environment
Fusion? Damn
New vessle then
Let's gp Kaiju!
What opposing views hehe
Welp, here coomes Kamen Rider birth but still tho, I do wish thaz Gotou bit more prode but I guess he really wants to save the world
Actually... Is it even Gotou?
Birth really reminds me of the candy pop
Combo straight up? Your quite reckless Eiji but I supposed this counts approproiate to combo
I wishh we could''ve Mezool part of the final 3 greeds... Varity for Women, you know? I just don't think Uva is that shrewd enough to have thie Greed Battle
"Don't be stupid" oho, your true voice is coming through, Ankh¨
Yup knew it! No way Gotou abandon his pride like that!
EPISODE 17:
Now thinking about it, OOO didn't managed to know about Birth in the movie, it's just Accel and Akiko
Ah...
Cut to the others taking a vacation too spite Ankh's words
Younger sister? Older sister? of Date?
Ah, wait so new gyummy here isntead of siszer?
Seriously, it just the girls that went out?
Like a bird to the window
Awww, medal sorter
I like Hina alot
Rhinobettle?
New combo
Is Date birth like sweeping to the last moment? Like kill steal?
ooo it can change desires?
o... seperate and twice desires...
Geez, reckless now, are we?
If only the greed don't need it to live...
EPISODE 18
Is it for sensei to be proud over you?
I do like that Eiji cares to deduce what exatly the girl's desire to be
Date is an intresting person
Lmao, cute scene than cut to Gotou angsting
Gotou... your so cutely dramatic lol
I don't think that sensei of yours thinks of you that way...
Side note, I like Ankh's jacket
Lmao, Eijiiii
As expected, I knew he already has someone
WHAT?! BE MESSY??? NO WAY?!
What a cool guy, Date is, but his advice is terrible
I don't think you can witness this wedding, Eiji... especially with the mess of feeelings this girl is going to do
What an annoying episode
Oh? She's actually stopping th emonster not the wedding? I suppsoed I misjudged you
Never underestimate Eiji!
Birth really reminds me of Zolads
What does that mean?
EPISODE 19:
For a moment I thought it was absured as Ankh cleaning...
So, three cores huh? six more to go. Well, technically, founded already 2 is just in Kazari's poseesio. Assuming he has the new one from last episode...
I like his pink suite
Shingo.... oops I've been spelling his name wrong
Kougami probably thinking what odd desires Eiji has
Honestly its a good thing Gotou is there before that man s^chould've done weird...
Yeah, Maki and his doll needs to be crapped on
Ah, switzerland theme today?
So... is this just him gaining a crush on Shingo
INto the soup!!!!
So, Lion plus a Jellyfish, very unappeling unless your OOO
Bet by the end Kazari ot what he wanted for a moment but OOO got it in the end
Had e absored some of Uva's as well?
EPISODE 20
Prob not all of them in the sorter lol
Seriously???
Ok, for a Moment Eiji could've died to the pavement
Maybe in the Civil war? I have a feeling you've seen him aftermath
I love Hina so much, sh'e strong in both ways
Fondou?
Gotou is a nice person
I really like Mentor anf big brother Date is
He may be a jerk and canr be trusted but you can trust his greed lol
A constant driving force for everyone. A desire. How fascinating!
YEAHHHH! I love her
The only combo we havent gotten would be Mezool's
Are we not helping Eiji...?
EPISODE 21:
Makes sense for grasshoper and this one mkaing justice! Nods to the originals
Geez, it's really just people
Lol Satonako being so exprhased
Grasshoper even says the "TOh!" very kamen rider! It's been awhile since we got a rider inspire
Is that why Ankh is unique? He is designed to have other core medals? Actually, maybe he leped OOOs of before?
EPISODE 22
How annoying. Dont bring a child into this
ngl I do take back one where I say Date being reckless with the shots. Seeing and him explaining the recoil, especially on his first use? Understandable but still tho, I'd still say he was still reckless during that time
I like Date and his ability to tick Maki off lol
Yeah, justice is very subjective
Ah, should've known the shrewd nature of Eiji and yet Ankh doubt.
Are we ggeting three riders here? It's been a while for that
Lmao Ankh's face after that conversation
Sincerly, between Ankh and Kazari, Uva is really the odd one out, he's really below them interms of slyness. Sure compete with sthreagth but he doesnt adapt that much, only through their suggestions he managed that far... In the end he'll be devaoured
So it sjust men desprate to have chololate becasue no one wants them...
CUPIDS?!
Well, he's in her brothers body afterall...
EPISODE 23
Aw, we're ending Date's existance?
France???
OOO the treats looks very good!
Aw anothe rflag with Gotou being happy and getting swing of things... huhuhu
She reminds me of Wataru ngl
Ah, handling on Mezools way of yummy then?
Hhmmm, like Buddaisht values Eiji is trying? But I supposed trauma and surviros guilt does that to a person
hOnestly, Uva isn't really same level as Ankh and Kazari
ah??
Is this an effect of the yummy?
EPISODE 24
Oh dear, really out of romance...
Honestlxy without your sister, the company wouldnt stay this afloat, its not just the face. marketiing îsnt th eonly facet in a company
Love fever?
Wow, is how Eiji actual love? Hard and fast to the ground that it's painful?
For the fun of it, i like Date and Miko together
Why is he screaming over Chiyoko?
That was a metal fan?!
Lmao first time these two agree on something
Kazari is dumbfounded lol
I guess there's hounour in battle from Kazari lol
He's a doctor?!
I really do think its the aftermath of the civil war he met Eiji
Finally! A Mezool combo!
EPISODE 25:
Ice cream is the cuase of death for Shingo...
<new body or what?
OOo wait, maybe its a seperate arm with its own consciousness??
I just realised Gotou is a bull
Hina thinking the same thing for her brother?
Oh? Finally an Ankh Yummy?
Oh, works like an Uva?
So, what is Ankh's play here? Figuring out his conditions?
I see that Ankh having regenerate a part of him but it didn't conenct and now a seperate concious. That's what I guess the twist of the episode
It is cute that Eiji try defending Ankh with how much they've been through together. It just a cute Stockholm syndrome
You mean, bird vs Bird?
I don't think its to make the fight harder? I really do think it's something else. I'm sticking to my theory
To trust an enemy is to defeat them hehe
EPISODE 26:
Pretty sure Date was clearing up the air lol. ease up the tension!
So, weak desires and trying to up them up? Is that the way for Ankh's Yummies? Compelling them to act on desires that isn't quite destruct nor consuming but by their own will? Is it even gaslight? hmmm...
Doctors orders!
Oh, not brother but for Eiji huh
We're letting pride go now? How fascinating! I like the adaptive Gotou!
Oh, Mothers?
Ahhh, sister
Man this doctor is hilarious when he isn't all scientific
Right, i forgot about that...
Right?!
Ah, that's why give to Eiji. For safe keeping!
I wonder if they studied boxing fights for this episode
Ultra form that the Doctor Maki needs to repair lol
Beautiful Comradeships! Reminds me for the taekwondo guys in Den-O, but more as friends than the yearning those two have lol
Aha! So! We're finally being civil now! Than the rocky relaitionship we had. I'm honestly releived it took this long we got over the uneasy alliance.
Ha! I stand correct! Also time to watcht the movie
EPISODE 27:
No commentary, will be eating and watching lol. Might put ending thoughts if needed.
Oooooo! 1000th episode!
Post-Episode commentary: I thought they were walking about the OOO x Den-O movie.... Also, I love the more we go on, the more looser fits Eiji has and added scarves. And the implications of a Kamen Rider is? I know its meta but I do want to know that maybe W and OOO share the same universe as Showa...
EPiSODE 28
Oop, Eiji accidentally killed the parrot
Ah, here I thought the uneasy road of mutal benifit has smoothen but alwas, a rock had thrown its way
The shocker mooks gets up? Makes sense why they're the Yummy
So, like.... Date was the sound effect??? Lmaoo what a great and mad movie this will be
Poor Eiji will get the short end of the stick for Date sake of realism....
Awww, Ankh does care!
Wow, grunts from diffrent eras...
Man this movie wil be epic with an epic odern twist
Climax? Momotaros is that you?
Wha... Gotou you have a rock? Will you use thta to bash... Kazari? Thats will be hilarious i you do so
OMG! That's even better than I expected
Imagine all of that adn the battery ran out or its not even recording lol
You the fact they used the same sound fro the disc in Hibiki is nice
This is such a fun silly episode, espcially when the translation of Ankh cursing out Kougami lol
At this poitn, rainbow power to the go cuz that'3 riders that used rainbow...
I saw that's a special 49 episdoes for Kamen Rider, which I need to find a new site to watch it from... i really do think my site is taken down which sucks
EPISODE 29
Yeah, ngl I was waiting for Maki to get Yummied
How come this other arm of Ankh has a different voice? Softer than the echoee from the first episode? Ngl I've been thinking that Ankh had teamed up with OOOs of before, from the little information from the first two EPs had given. Was this perhaps the side that had sided with OOOs of before?
Huh, what happened to the parasitic nature of Kazari's Yummies? Ah wait I forgot, he had combos of others... So this is Gamel's yummy?
Wiaz seriosu???
Gotou???
Wow, he really is a new him
Wait compelte form????
um... weird form?
Date looking surprise and delight at Eiji's shewredness
I thought OOOs was created AFTER the creation of the medals?
Honestly after that little story, don't tell me its a foreshadowing what will happent o Eiji? Because he keeps pushing and pushing
damn the music
Was he emotionally neglected?
Shits going down and Uva is nowhere to be seen... seriously, why is even chosen to be the final 3 greed?
EPISODE 31
That's cute that they're getting a long now, Eiji giving a friendly scolding to Ankh and Ankh just accepting it(never reluncant now hahah)then there's eager Eiji sharing, alas, Ankh likes ice cream. Maybe he'll like cold dishes?
Also, Uva is so old school... can he even keep up now?
Is it an OOOs medal?
Hahhh... so Uva is jusz playing it safe
Man, best episode to watch after a power nap huh.... plot heavy one with new medals. I wonder, its on adisc like for Ankhs core form, is it born from the OOOs of Before?
Japanese theme today?
Wait its Japanese Student theme?
yeahm whta a loop right man?
Why are psudo-yummy hard to deal with? not hard but teddeiou?
Ngl I really like Sataka's fashion sense, its very bright that I only wish to pull
Are they going to complete Ankh's missing ones?
Huh, waited perfect timing or hesitated to do that?
Am I right on why...?
Solike... Is Eiji becoming a Greed?
EPISODE 32
I wonder what kind of animal is purple
I do hate that we do need to keep in mind on what kindess to give or rather help because of these sorts of reaction. Why can't we just get along together, not be carried away from it?
I had to rewatched the transfomr medal, I swear the blue looking a bit purple...
But you sure act you will die at every moment
huh, now Ankh is asking how Eiji doing? It isnt evena question pertaining if he copuld continue to fight but if he's alright in general
He's a politician's son? Huh never expected
right... politics...
Dinosours?
What a design
Oh, so like, Maki has a void of desires then or beacuse of his mission its compatable? And to do that on object as well... wow. And my prediction on human turning greed is correct just not with Eiji
EPISODE 33
Ah really? I feel like those thoughts arent that full hearted, Ankh
Mmm, maybe not, looks like I have underestimated Ankh's greed
why did you whisper that name like your yearning???
what a fun park
about time what? Why wait when Eiji is alone? Gahhh Im curipous! bad timing for Yummy!
huh....
Wait that many already from just touchign Eiji??? Wow he really must like you Eiji
So like, Kimura is definently a yandere right?
Bte Gotou getting brownie poijntd on protecting Eiji lol
Episode 34
Huh, there's soemthing underlying upon that Ankh bringing it up, but i dont know what is it. It's something but I can't put a finger on it
oh, didnt went the way you wanted, Ankh?
a nest????
You've heard about Two primary riders, ever heard two for Secondary rdifers? Kamen Rider Birth, its two!
I forogt now everyone has Hina's strength
He's shaking
Enver thought Ankh would do this kind of play, saving. ahuman's life?
What in the tension is this?
Ah, so here is all beging. As expected, you can't compete with that Kimura haha
I do find it funny, we got a clear definition of trust and steadynees between them on this episode of all things. Their dynamic is complete now I'd say. Or rather, more comfortable
EPISODE 35
Yoooo! Hina that's such a cool design! I knew it was Eiji who will model it! I can just tell its from your style from scafves and everything!!!
What's woth Ankh?
AHHHH it was Shingo!
WHat a terrible father
Yeah, I expect Uva to be down now. He really is never a threat
oh? you did absorb Ankh's medal?
Bet this is the episode that Uva dies
So in general, myti^hical creature for the Purple Core?
Also I saw the title, there's a apperently a Birth secret? Is it to the condition that Date is hiding?
Ah, here it comes
Ah really? Don't want to take Kazari? I feel like thats because you feel he's just the bigger threat lol
Bet, that's Date's
Oop...
That's honestly cute
Yeah, but the thing is, the guy didn't offer it to you tho? Isnt that kinda desrecptecful to him? Unless, Hina does a referral
How come? Purple really is unique
EPISODE 36
One comes back and another falls...
Why is Ankh acting like a wet dog in a rain????
So, Uva's plan is revival?
Right, no desire means no to live...
Awww Gotou
Ankh's voice is echoing, so he didn't completely asimilated then?
What a big desire... I thought it would be nothing!
Wait it's not a desire but a dream! Ahhh, to dream that big... I wish for your success Eiji.
Looks to Ankh to reassure he's in control? How sweet, remmebering the last time...
Gamel and Mezool is seariouly just canon fodders?
See this is why I say Mezool is more sly, but in the end Kazari will betray them
EPISODE 37
Is Ankh getting effected by Shingo's emotions now or out of his own...?
It's time to avoid reading the title so I can get be total surprise
I wonder if Eiji and Date can come to an understanding since similar to fighting injured...
Yeah... thy're really similar huh... as expected
I think the Date has a contingency plan
Something is up...
EPISODE 38
It's not that simple though
What an Ankh attitude
I'm telling you guys! I was on something with Date and Maki being together
leaving legacy huh...
Guys I'm telling you! They have something!
Sounds about right
YKK what, I bet Gotou removed that self-destruct
oh dang... time for <birth I guess...
While sad, but I've seen it coming.
Since when fly????
Yo! When he can come back??? Seriously???
HUUUUUHHHH???
Wow I didn't expect this...
EPISODE 39:
Pretty sure this is a nightmare of Ankh
yep, nightmare
Oh? the wording?
Wow quick team up
Indirect Kiss!
So when Date is out, we finally get a chiken?
Is it really needed to keep Eiji being a Kamen Rider a secret? He really doesn't care ot keep a secret identity...
<guess you gotta be stylish for battle?
Ah so... its the wife whose Yummy?
EPISODE 40:
goodness... 8 more episdeos then I can taste the fanfics next....
GO CHIYOKO! YOUR SO COOL!
Gotou experiencing his hardship in partnership lol
... why is this the music choice...? so many things are implied with these small montage and music
I wonder is Ankh felt hurt by that betrayal
oh yeah, he was definently hurt by the betrayal... does he have some special relationship with the OOOs of before?
a new beggining after that birthday forsure...
Damn! the veins on Gotou's arm!
Comprises sound right but I never expect that
that's cool, a medal on his body, can be taken anytime without going through the backpack
I was going to end it here but now I can't! I NEED TO WATCH WaTHC WATCH!!!!
EPISODE 41
Plan B from Ankh? Give medal to Hina I assume?
Why not use the other two medal you have, Eiji?
UH??? When did Chiyoko had here eyes bruised???
Oh, Shingo is fully recovered??
Why not use a sub-combo? Must it truly be combo?
I'm not sure I can take this episode.... mmm nah I can take it
Oh man, Eiji is right... this is weird....
ooooh, so this is where the 101 is from...
Somethine changed Eiji? or something reminds you of the cooking, Eiji?
Eiji we still have 7 episodes, dont act this will end soon...
really feels like a superhero film in saving someone dear to them.especially the cinegrography...
did you managed to get the mdeal though?
EPISODE 42:
Satonaka really is a mcguffin
roses?
what's with the flowers? is it a sign of funeral? but the thing is idk what there symbolism not meaning of them
oh so thats why you reacted to Hina's cooking like that...
Are we really geeting Greed Eiji? Maybe we'll surprise from Kamen Rider they won't do this twist but you never know with Kamen rider....
Detective is a bit stiff, I'm so used to Ankh's flamboyant acting...
Ah... we're so doing many bits now... Kuuga, Faiz, Blade...
Hallucinating now are we?
Huh? Gamel can taste things?
Damn, I really want Godai Yusuke and Hino Eiji to meet...
What a parallel...
Kougami... we still got nothing about Foundationghqelkjbvqej X btw...
ajsbflqjherv
HUH??? THE CORES
Ankh is compelte?!
yeyeyeyeyeyeye
guess Ankh really likes your face Shingo
WHAT THIS IS A 3 Parter?!
EPISODE 43
WHAT THE?¨Ankh????
what the gell is happening....
oh yeah, Uva is alive but only 1 core
Unlikely partnerships?
You'll what Eiji? Find a suitable body? Sacrifice your own cores? I know you'll get the detective back but still...
I'm pretty sure this is what Eiji want regardless...
Ngl I want to go back and watch Eiji's dream...
What is ANkh's play?
Man, Gotou is on the clock 27/7, he sleeps in the company, the lab. Does he ever rest?
The team is back ̴
Looks like I'm finishing every episode today...
EPISODE 44
Uhuh, there's still a play here, no way showing that much desperation? Definitely a play
Ankh has natural charisma and a gaslight nature than you Kazari
Uva is still easily the weakess one
Desire to help is nice tho...
sounds like a lie
there's also the fact Birth can't be repaired now... so this is last battle? unles the <rd of <kougami foundations can repair <birth
definently getting consumed...
EPISODE 45
makes sense but yeah, what are you still doing Ankh?
The things is... Ankh you had enyoyed that...
Oh dear... he lost that too...
Spoken like a greed...
trully Satonaka is a mcguffin
3 cores huh...
is this time that Gamel will consume her?
wrap up, I'm watching ep 46 to 48 by myself. just like how I did W
I honestly love whenever we get a section of this Kamen Rider speaker... That means I get to see Nigou a lot lol. Will be posting his small short as well later! I want to finish these specials haha
I posted a Shin Ichihongo (Hongo and Ichimonji) fic on Ao3. Check it out if you want to :3
I’m awkward at writing kissing so sorry if it feels awkward to read. Rated M just because there’s implied sex at the end but nothing crazy. I just wanted to write them being silly and in love.
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
I'm not even sure it I'll write, but maybe for the last 3 I won't. Since I typically lock in for the last 3-2 episodes.
EPISODE 45
What a wild person
What a delusional person
Are we deafting Mick in this episode arc?
Let genuis akiko work! She's very good at guessing!
Is evil tail Mick's cat tail? Well... double tail?
He just really push her to the direction he wants huh
So what you're saying... Philip needs to be the one to fight since his body doesn't react
Wait, it seems like Wakana was there to witness that and knows about the underground lybrns??? Unless she decided to unconsciously block her memory of that...
Also I didn't manage to comment about it earlier, that is a good reason why they haven't charged into defeating Terror.
That looks like an Aztec design
Seriously? Then why do you have a physical body then?
EPISODE 46
Okay, makes sense with how he's constantly digitalised bit still...
Wow, bloodied and bruised
The last Supper? hmhmhm... Whose the traitor here?
Joyful sorrowful memories
Wait, do I have to take back that Waka would be Philip's family member he'll take back?
Family phot? A key card? Or maybe a book?
WAIT ARe WE FR????
A brush?
What a prayer then...
I can't really be happy here since Philip's body is gone. Unless, Xtreme managed to materialise it by the end of this. Of course unless, we'll dop A Hongo and Ichimonji style
There's still Saeko and Mick
OMG PHILIP!
What the hell is this last 3 episodes supposed to be
OH FUDGE I FORGOT ABOUT THE THE GROUP
NGl I was thinking on how these newly introduce charcaters willl go out since we're near. But I thought the movie has that handled but naaaah. Alrighty then! I need sleep. End of blog. It's not like I'll blog my thoughts for the last 3 epsidoes anyway lol.
KAMEN RIDER W FOREVER: A to Z/The Gaia Memories Of Fate Live BLOG
Since a movie takes a lot of endurance to watch, I'll have the perfect timing to just marathon the last 5 episodes tomorrow. Anyway! I can see Kamen Rider OOO in the poster, so I'm guessing this is his debut. Build up the hype for the next lol. Alright! Let's start!
STARTING:
This feels like an opening of an American movie
You know, despite the shows insitance (Akiko in a way as well) I dont really feel like Akiko really likes Terui in a romantic way?
Why not make the little hang guys to make the rain go away?
Excuse me? Philip's going to cry here???
Revived Dopants? We defeated that one before
Ah, so this is the movie where Mom dies
The symbols on his face is clearer than ever
Ooo! First time its not Cyclone x Joker in max drive. So Joker's drive is just spliting off
Geez, Shroud really don't like Shotaro huh
Or not Shroud??? Hold on, I need rewind if the face is the same
Ok, same face. So.... Why act in a rude way?
Ouch but fair
So this is the movie where proxy mom dies?
Of course, the girl of the criminal group would get Queen memory
Or not? Let's go! Screw predictability!
Is that Accel?
Wonder what full heat looks like
Those are pretty cool Motorcycle fights!
I'm guessing pole guy has Metal
W got spanked...
Hm...? I bet Maria is Cyclone
These underway parking lot really reminds me of Ryuki.... I really need to watch the specials of Ryuki to meet Ryuuga.
Just like that? No suspicion on bringing the gathered memories?
Brother in suffering, I suppose
Everyone is giving the title Kamen Rider like it's a commodity.
Shotaro coolly faints like a detective to the side lol
Quick to say Monster around. Wonder we'll get their tragic backstory, reasoning why they're doing these things and the way they arre
Then what's the point of the Drive maximum then? If the main point of it to stop pre-t2 gaia memories?
Wonder which one of them has Joker
I bet Joker is the missing gaia memory for being well... Joker.
Okay hold on, is this pre-shroud reveal??? I thought this was post-shroud reveal???
Or this can be just wistful thinking on Philips part on wanting to find mom.
Seriously? We're fighting?
So this what Shotaro mean Philip crying...
Is Skull the last Memory????
Wow, Shotaro's hallucination of Chief is sure helpful
Oh, I thought Shotaro knew why Philip is acting that way with Maria
Seen that twist coming from the moment of the brother line lol
YES! I knew Joker wpuld be the last!
Now the question is, the max drive/ability is split, so how does this work?
YEaAAHHHHHH RIDER KICK!
Oh damn, Philip is being used as a tool again 😭
I really feel like Terui sees Akiko as his little sister. Especially with that little pat
I forgot that Terui used to fight untransform and his heavy sword
Oh, so Full Joker is literally Kamen Rider movesets lol
Eternal reminds me of batman, the way he flies up is just like how Batman glides down
What about the memory your friends using
oh nvm
Oh dear... Shotaro will blame himself for this despite not knowing this will be the cause.
Right, everyone loses here
Oh, so this is where OOO comes in. I honestly forgot about that
This is the most property destruct Kamen Rider has recently done yet. Decade doesn't really count.
Wow! A Kamen Rider cheer!
Sidenote, does this mean Fuuto Tower is no longer seen when I get back to the episodes?
You know, when Shroud said (well, in my website translation at least) "Shotaro will bring a miserable fate on Philip", there were two things in mind. Philip will die, which would be the typical interpretation. The other being, Shotaro, will die, thus causing misery. I'm unlikely to believe any of these, since typical trope; these are just warnings, not some sort of prophecy. And being worried that Philip is too involved in dangerous stuff. But this is Kamen Rider... They had fulfilled their fate as promised before, just on a later date... However! We've been on a good streak lately! I was only bamboozled once! And the rest of Heisei did fulfil their tragic faith, but in a good way! Fulfilled prophecy in the way the prophecy didn't intend to be the way it was fulfilled. So I have hope.
Anyway! Let's go straight into it. From heartbreak or enjoyment to the eventual heartbreak!
EPISODE 31:
Cannot die yet? Odd wordings but I'll stay positive to say meaning she wants Philip to have a natural death
"Hidari Shotaro will cause you misfortune" okay, different translation today then... But still, I stand by my thoughts on what Shroud meant
I bet that's the former beast man, and he's possessive over his title lol
Oh... unexpected
Where's my happy? I need happy to be heart broken guyyyssss. Or maybe I forgot the Kamen Rider Heisei formula? It has been a while since the past months I've been watching Showa Era Riders...
"Stris inside of me" And I call that shotaro finding another father figure lol
Maru looks like a real gangsta here
I'm guessing Philip hasn't healed all through?
So... Shotaro's side is falling behind? If I follow Philip's thought correct
Ultimate form?
What even is Xtreme Memory? A buff? Surely it isn't foresight since like I said, Shroud is a warning ramble, not a phropehchy
Let's go Akiko!
HUh? Don't tell me it's Accel who'll suit Philip's growth
Welp... that line as if that isn't foreshadowing more to lose I don't know what is
I'm guessing Philip will control the body to avoid the power struggle?
Philip has a different marking when it comes to transforming
Just how we'll overcome this??? i don't want Shotaro to become hard-boiled if it means to be W... Of course if we're talking about mental capabilities to be the reason why he's lagging behind
EPISODE 32:
Dear oh dear, despite the detective recap board, I still worry for this episode...
FUCK
SHIT NO!
My heart is breaking...
I refuse! I know how this will end, but I don't enjoy this journey at all! Arrggghhhh!
Man, I guess I won't get happy times at all, all I get is a bunch of Angst. Thanks Kamen Rider
Ugh... my feels.
The salmon is quite polish, the clue would be the fish
Or not, it is the bear... huh
What are you hiding? Shotaro? Do something self-sacrificial again? Something stupid?
This is heartbrekaing man
I didn't expect this at all wow
UH! HE wans't saved?!
so like... Is Philip going to be eaten by the Earth?
This is really good man
YEAh! No need for tears go epic!
ULTIMATE FIORM?!
The weapon reminds me of Den-O's ultimate
The power of Rainbow and Prism!
Why are we now glazing Shotaro? I don't understand
EPISODE 33:
Before anything starts, I forgot to talk abotu Shroud integration with the Egg team. Small package that came to Philip, a suspicious one also. Of course, Philip being Philip, just found it interesting rather than concerning. I honeslty thought it would be more a of a plot point at the mysterious package on why are they giving such intructions to the Egg Detective Agency? And then the seamless acceptance that Shroud is an ally? There's also the fact we got no questioning from Terui on how the Egg Detectives knows Shroud. Which I think he came to his own conclusion that Shroud also gave them their powers like how she gave him his... Let's just start the episode...
You know about Eart, is Philip THE memory? Wonder how that came to be...
AWWWWW KITTYYYY
Lol, new habit brought from new father figure Bisto?
Memories being "yesterday"?
Is this my happy time now? My fluuf? The one I want to have? Or are we seriously reformulating the Heisei era now since we're at Neo...
What's with "Yesterdays"?
Oh! i'm guessing doing they're seeing what they're doing yesterday... The circles as sands of time or moon cylce? Or just a moving tattoo of time?
Funny recap hahahah (I'm hurt)
Hey hey! Don't interupt him! He was doing pretty good
Probably use you for sacrifice
First time destroying a property! Oh, the stalker won't like that when they watch that part
OH I just realised the ploy! It's Kamen Rider who'll kill Saeko! That's how it is!!!
Lmao, Akiko
Oh so that's why she looks so intrested at the poster
Yeah, her being the Dopant isn't really surprising
As long he doesn't transform he's fine. Wait no, it will look like SHotaro tried to kill Saeko!
Then De Transfomr!
Well then-... Kamen Rider will become a menance!
So, this is
Huh??? Since when Xterem was used??
Oh that smart and dirty!
EPISODE 34
Last episode before I sleep then i'll continue tomorrow.
?! Philp teleported here...
Either beacuse she looks like to cry or Shotaro didn't completely fallow Yesterday
Geez, what with the emotional beat episodes these recents
And the Psycho walks in the room
Sigh, I gues we'll be loosing a Girl Boss to this mansplainer
I swear if this is like like Brother like Sister in death
In a Church we swear fealty?
Seriously? We're having vengence plot today?
Oh, so Xtreem really takes Philips body to transform the ultimate? Hmmmm....I really hope.... Ah I better not say it.
Man, no damn for Terui's injury?
Right, her past was eaten...
EPISODE 35:
ALirghtttt its the next day, I finally ate brunch! And I supposed this will be a heavy episode again, a bit of fun times that tricked me to feels again.
I'm guesing your sister likes the zoo?
Is this why he's soft to Akiko? I'll be honest, I can see the similarities between them
Terui, it looks like your harshing her
And I stand corrected
He really is fearless in front of Terror
The weather man is here
So... really remind him of his sister huh
Really? I thought it was a Bat Memory with it's wings reminices of it
So basically, Doc fell inlove with Terror
Mick the spy cat?
Fighting with hatered wont do it no. Or pehaps all Shroud can see negative feelins are the mos tpowerful tool to upgrade thats why she considered Accel to tbe be perfect partner to Philip? To be a overcooked egg if anything
Motocross? What? Is this a nudged to the biking track from the original Kamen Rider? It almost looks like the same location
EPISODE 36:
Are we doing traditional Kamen Rider training now? Cool
Geez, daddy issues
As if you'll die. Then agina.... it is possible for a secondary to die.... hmmmm
I thnk severly injured not dead
Or actually he is in fact dead. what
Well not dead but more defeated than ever
I still think Shroud is the mom
Aslo their fate sealed by Shorud, so it's a man-made fate then, nothing permanent
EPISODE 37:
So, Raito episode then?
I just realised we're nearing Ep 40 now... Ahhh I'm nervous
I was looking at my list and it says this
I'll watch these when i reach Episode 40 or finish this arc episode, I guess.
I'm guessing Shroud is to come to kill Saeko?
Or not? that purple haired girl then?
What is happening? What is this plot? What trap is this?
This really feels like a Kamen Rider plot lol
EPISODE 38:
Okay, I did a bit of research if I watch extra stuff and turns out I can skip the Encylopedia but I'll watch the Forever: A to Z since it's apperently treated part of the main continuity,
Micky the spy cat!
Man, Seako really is in the low
I guess, Philip can no longer deny the knowledge he had been trying to forget
Wakana looks just like Saeko now
Mind-controlled then? There is a flashof purple and green on her eyes
EPISODE 39:
Now how will this silly episode will turn into? Feelings resolvement from Philip's side?
Him? Feels too obvious but alirght, he's the Dopant
Akiko stop teasing that man
Is that Shroud? Oh it's Saeko
EPISODE 40:
I'm guessing Ai is his older sister or younger sister lol?
Man, sure men do bother saeko alot
Go run go run!
Honestly AKiki! You forget to ask someone for conset in the kiss! Ai also need conset! Terui honestly had the right idea to run
Everything is devolving in Wakana's life
I bet Shotaro would turn it into a detective film
clever transitioning!
Akiko! You truly are fearless!
OMG, Terui is tied to the tree lol!
Lol Shotaro really wants Terui to suffer lol
YOU GO KAWAI!
Also this is how I imagine Wataru be developed into talking...
Man, this family fr is boiling
I'll be honest Philip, you'll onky get 1 family member back. Saeko and you father is too far imo. And your mother, I'm not sure. I still think she's Shroud with the whole resemblance to the sisters but I have no idea how to feel about her as well...
Oh dear
Oh, did Terui actually did a break through with Shotaro? That's hilarious
It's pretty funny that Terui got really bothered on unable to kiss lol
EPISODE 41:
I have 8 episodes left + a movie... I totally got this
It's the heat of a summer, ahhh... then close to aumtumn or winter.. Kamen RIder alway end on those times...
What's with the sudden red lighting?
Is that young Shotaro causing trouble ?
So, an all-girl club with occasional males?
Red herring for sure, surely there's a puppet? Or an accomplish at least
Coincidence after coincidence, hm hm hm....
Makura, you've having too much fun here, up a little with Jin
With Jinno's hair like that, I'd say he's like a younger Hibiki
As expected, love triangles are terrible in Kamen RIder, leads to ruin
You sure Satoru didn't manipulate Rui?
Hmmm, now we're nearing the end, my predicitons are of huhuhuh. That's pretty great
That's the narrrative she's going for? Surely that isnt it
Dont tell me, this is all the Super model's fault? accomplish of her?
I love the little shrug from her when W is preparing for ultimate attack lol
hm? Is this like Kiwiro?
EPISODE 42:
I really hate seeing Philip be called some sort of property
Diamons are pretty resilient in pressure, but they're easy to break as well
Ahhh, let's just see what will happen. Likely He's under delusion what help is
Fake fake fake, not geuine enough
Hidden from plain sight huh? Bah, why is my first predictions be this way sksksk eoithher way, we're near the end, I don't want to think too much. I want be surprise by the end
Jinno for the best!
Lmao, Terui seems very ace coded for me ngl, the way he avoids affectionate gestures is so me. Like, I had to be in a certian mindset or mood or be prepared to receive affections
EPISODE 43:
Immediately flag when Terui does nice things. I'm guessing it's the torture Terui episode?
That's because Terui is already an old man lol
It's affecting Shotaro's side not Philips? Does this mean there is a substance when it coems to Philip's perfect partner by Shroud
Old man Shotaro! Will we getta stories from him as well?
Everything makes sense. I was confused why Terui chosen, turns out it wasn't really chance of murder but a man made fate
EPISODE 44:
Last Episode today, along with the movie that will be published later
Lol, I was about to question Akiko's insanity to hit an elderly
BOMB?!
AHA! KNEW IT! Let's go early theoriessss!!!!
i Know that's speaking for Shroud as well, but I don't think Terui really needs to forgive her. He can understand her reasons but never forgive her actions. She had done something unrovokable, taking his family's life and truamatising him with the imagine of their death as well.
Just Raito? What about your daughters? How one-sided can this be? I may feel sympathy for her plight, but I'm also annoyed at her tunnel vision on wanting Raito safe. Or rather, that possessive feel on wanting Raito back to mother's embrace? Seriously?
I have relished the feels, and I think I vaguely dreamt about Accel. Anyway, this is the next day. I woke up extra early so I could watch 2 episodes before class lol.
EPISODE 19:
Oh, I thought the billiards was just another revenue stream for them... I mean, that is their building after all...
Philip would excel in Billiards lol
Shotaro, I think you're as good as me in Billards...
Oh, I was right! Accel is the new police rookie!
You know what, it's a bit weird seeing it, but it's been a while since Shotaro played into his theatrics this much?
It's okay being soft-boiled, Shotaro! Soft-boiled eggs are better in my opinion since I get to actually enjoy eating the yolk. And soft-boiled eggs are the best with any soup-based meal! Except for spoas, but then again I don't eat the hard-boiled eggs on it as well...
Episode title on Philip side, is it "[I] won't stop" or "I won't Stop"? Kinda hard to tell... Also "His name is Accel" on Shotaro's side doesn't seem hostile?
How old is Accel? I want to assume he's younger than Shotaro since the police gave the impression he's quite a young guy who had accomplished lots of things
Terui is really reminding me of Yuuto somehow and I don't know why...
Dear goodness, did Shotaro did anything? Or do Terui just hate questions which is why the others are quite... disciplined with him?
Oh yeah, Wakana had no idea their goal is
Sword???
Okay my website translated Terui^s response to not W transforming to be "You two are so awkward!" which, really doesn't make sense to me? Wonder what other translation this line has
Oh, this is the first time Philip went off track from his fixation... He really finds Terui unpleasant then. Sigh. This will always be the dynamic I guess between primary and Secondaries.
Sometimes, i find it a bit unfair that Shotaro is relegated to the "He's just the brawns" in W? I mean yeah mostly, but outside as Shotaro he is more than that...
Ok I know what he reminds me of Yuuto. It's the way he stands and frowns. He just looks like Yuuto
The swing is the best ride ever! The first one I ever got to do as a kid
Shroud? An ally? I guessing Wakana
Reminds me of Kamen Rider Driver and a mix of Faiz's motorcycle whenever it enters battle mode
HE'S A MOTORCYLCe?!
I guess you can call him a Kamen Cycle?
Sigh. Once again, the formula where the secondary is introduced, there's always a set up to show how better they are and to show their difficult personality :(
Of course the exception of Agito lol. Agito is the Chosen One after all lol
KAMEN RIDER 20
Obligatory fight between riders...
Will there be a time for Terui to smile? Also, the frown and posture is all I can say from Yuuto, their way of doing things totally isn't the same.
Oh heay! intro change! Well, more like additional things in intro. Only in Kuuga you get to change completely lol
I won't call someone like that 'Hard-boiled' if Philip describes them as "relentlessly pursuing their ideals," and I know a couple of men who had done that and aren't really great
Will W memory pair with Fang?
By the way, does Gaia library update? I'm gueesing so...
Not really? I feel like the son had done something and she's just doing her best... And, the Museum is experimenting with children than with adults now, so it's likely the kid
Hey hey you better not punch him!
I wonder what made Terror want Wakana in
Wait wait! Not Wakana, I know that laced hand! That's from the intro
Now that's why they're called a Kamen Rider
What's this? He's a water bender now?
Bet he'll just stab the memory
Oh? Funnnyyy.
You better do a lot of repentinf
The original double? The initial looks like Cyclone and Joker combo
Coffee conesseuir Terui?
That's funny, he eased up and now found the hobby of teasing Shotaro lol
Also nice to see his face smoothed out. The frown face isn't really solemn-looking.
EPISODE 21:
Since there's a big break gaap, I'm watching ep 21 now lol
Hoping we get more chill Terui while still being hard boiled and not overcooked hard boiled lol
Do all salesmen have masquerade memory?
Watching this fight, all I can think about is is W memory. Why are we called Kamen Rider W despite the name we go by Double? Hmmmm...
She looks like a video game fighting character
First name basis?
I'm with your tone Akiko, that is a pretty petty reason to hire them
Shotaro?! Huh???
Ah other different petty reasons. Ok that's fine
Makura, you're too reckless...
How is Terui able to be that flexible in leather?
The whistling... reminds me of Stronger
I have a feeling W is Chief. IDK why, but why not throw in a curveball on a dead guy? His body still isn't found
Makura you really have no tact. No thoughts for brains
She's totally going to die by the end of these two episodes
I did think about that as well, but huh. Didn't think it would go this way.
EPISODE 22:
It is pretty dirty to fight someone on an untransformed. Sure, it's smart I suppose
I mean, there's Kirihiko, so maybe won't be curropted.
Ah, right... Forgot about that. Philip makes a good point
Why is W egging him? Why bother? Is Terui also have an experimental memory?
Thinking about it, why was Terui specifically chosen to be Accel?
Goodness, i also thought about her being an insider but I didn't realise we'll see her becoming one. Surely an ultermotive? This is way to on the nose
What exactly the game here? Make it look like he's dead?
Huh, I thought about this as well. When she said her regenve isn't done yet, i thought she would go for Fuuto since they condemed her love one. Was surprise when she said she'll target the manufacturer of Gaia Memories. Man, i should write down all thoughts and not just fragmented ones
Ah expected, it was pretty weird that W would taunt Terui. Still though, why choose him specifically to be Accel? Simply because he's a victim or to keep W in check?
Unexpected Kaiju
EPISODE 23
I just remembered, I haven't talked about what I initially wanted to talk yesterday. The naming sense for the Sonazaki. I obviously won't be able to talk about Nezcu (RIP Kirihiko), but I can talk about Taboo and Terror's name. Terror being the obvious naming sense, doesn't really have some double meaning to it. He's our big bad. Taboo is an interesting name to correlate with Saeko's character. She knows a lot of things, secretive and taboo stuff. How she commits Taboo stuff, experiments with children, etc. Which creates the wonder, what other taboo things would she do? Surely it's not only for the sake of evil with Terror, surely there's a way for her to do Taboo behing Terror's behind. Which is why I think she's Shroud. That's her other Taboo. Now with
Wakana's name, I do find it weird her name being "Clay Doll", and how come she's vastly different compared to her older sister and father? Better yet, she has her driver behind rather than in front. All other drivers are upfront while he's is the only one on the back. (Mick is a special situation). Clay Doll... Clay to mould her into something in their image, as she's quite malleable. However, such mould doesn't hold, as clay is ever evolving on whatever hand shapes it. The Doll part of the name... Well, as you know, dolls are things to manipulate without regard, as they have no feelings after all. They're tools to use for your vision or story that you want to happen. I do still thinj with Wakan's driver at her back symbolises how she's ignorant of her father and sister's doings. I mean, surely she has no idea what happened to Raito as well. Other than that, I think her driver is an experimental model too.
Alright, enoug of my ted talk, it's time to start the episdoe.
So like masked singers?
Or not, not wearing a mask, so just anyone
Maybe adding coregraphy could take you guys another round?
Jimmy looks like an emo heartthrob
Isn't the girl who likes the singing a bit on the nose for the Dopant? Unless we're flipping senses now
Oh! Intro change to the singers! That's pretty cool. I'm guessing this will be a chill fun episode
Oh, is she being paid to be his fan?
How old is Wakana? Surely she's older than Philip?
Hehehehe, shenanigin episode
Wait does this mean Terui unknowlingly helps Shotaro and Philip debut? Does this mean he's the number 1 fan here?
I know he's fighting Dopan as duties of Kamen Rider per tells, but let me have this fun
Oooo, Shotaro rap and Philp sing?!
The synergy is great here
Huh, whats with this soft-spoken Accel?
Personally, I think one of the judges is the Dopant. Mmmm.... nah, unless Accel was fighting, it was an illusion.
He's W????
Uhhhh... I'm not sure if we're supposed ot feel bad about this?
EPISODE 24
GROSS! Don't lick your lips like that! I don't want inuddeons like this!
Also, surprised to hear W is a weather Gaia memory...
Isn't it a bit weird for a middle age woman to feel that much affection to an 19 year old to the point of dependancy?
What a perverted psycho
W-what is this? What kind of scene is this? What with the sudden anime music???
I love whenever this ost plays
Oh I didn't expect that... First time I didn't managed to get who the Dopant was
Maybe because he's a complete psycho that you like him?
That's totally Akiko acting the crowd lol
Is Philip dressed as Wakana?
Lol Akiko
What a bunch of clowns in that outfit
I'll settle for a platonic relationship, please. Don't betray me with romance. Kamen Rider so far haven't impressed me at all with canon romance (looking at you, Kiva)
The audience is so done lol
Siggggghhhhhhhhhh. Implications blergh
Poor Shotaro lol
EPISODE 25:
I think "Windy" is the perfect word than myterious for Fuuto
Ahhh to having doubts my own theory on who Shroud is... Don't tell me she's Terui's sister? Ahhh, I can't tell at all. I'll stick with my theory for the moment
Horro Side Plot?
Not a side plot...?
I'm so confused... Is this part of Dopant's power?
Not cool
Hhhmmm, I notice there's face marking now when they're transforming?
Just what is happening?
EPISODE 26:
Frog!
Where's Fang?
Huh? is that another evidence that Saeko is Shroud? Simply because Accel's unit is protecting Philip when he's in danger
He's going to have an unhealthy dependence on that Doll...
EPISODE 27:
Goodness, Terui what with that look? Do you like teasing shotaro that much?
We have Wakan's old attitude back?
Chills------I forgot about him being W
This can be 2 maximum drive, both Accel and Double
Hey now, don't put your anger on Philip
Fist bump!
AHHHH NEXT EPSIDOE THIS IS SO GOOODDDDD I don't even think I'll be able to type anything for the next lol
EPISODE 28:
WHAT THE HELL?! That didn't did him?!
ALSO! Maybe Shroud is the mom?
Shotaro, you half-boiled idiot
Your not dying Shotaro goodness. Too early! I swear!
Oh my. Philip is angry
Oh, the belt is still on... So Philip defently heard what Terui said... I just had to rewatched that shout...
I think Shotaro would be out of commisio for this epsiode? If Double makes an apperance, i'm guess it wouldbe Philip. Unless Shotaor, the reckless idiot, decided to fight with his battered body...
EYEYE ! Punching really?!
You go Akiko!
Yes, so his final act, you'll die for it? Think more clearly girl. He'll retire with no family left
I expected and didn't expect that punch at the same time lol. Nice!
oh.. it's too late
Wait we can still save her???
Oh dang. Unexpected? I got juped
I WIN THESE PREDICTIONS HAHHAAHAHHAHAHA
Belt is still on! So that mean Shotaro is listening in lol
HA! IT IS MOM!
What a psycho
Terui you look shocked out by Lily affection lol
I was wrong on unable to type anything on this episode but eh. Unto the next one! Ahhh I know things will get crazy! They typicall do around 30s lol. Well more like calm before the storm were I will undoubtedly get heart break by 40...
EPISODE 29:
What is happening. Shotaro, what is this filter
...
...Is she the Dopant?
...I'm guess the professor hasn't been able to get sleep as well...
Lmao he stayed up till morning for sure
This is a nightmare!
I still think it's the girl but if it's the other boy then it wouldn't be surprising
Oh dang. bad timing to end because I now have class huhuhuhu
EPISODE 30
So, the girl then?
This is more than sleep talk...
Lmao, you go girl
What
Wow, Akiko your prettz powerful in the dream world
So, I'm wrong?
Is it a direct phropechy or a mothers worry?
I got juped. I thought about him faking but didnt thought it would come to that! Ahhh, I really shouldn't doubt my prediction abilities
... Seriously? This is how it concludes?
Sigh, I hope you the best Himeka
Awe cute! But I too would blush red (maybe) if someone told me they're my only partner for life.... dear partner, you can try, but I probably won't. Maybe weirded out. Even as a surprise, I don't think I can handle it
KAMEN RIDER x KAMEN RIDER W & Decade: Movie War Live Blog
Soooo... I accidentally went past the recommended point, but at least I managed to stop at 3 minutes in the episode of EP 16. It can't be helped, I was too locked in lol. Alrighty! Time to watch the origin movie!
START POINT:
Of course, bad things alway happen in christmas in Kamen Rider
What age is Shotaro in this? He's wearing a school uniform
a dream?
Chills, is this what Wakana's radio ended point right?
Chills, that's creppy.... and scary...
CHOEF?! I mean i knew it at some poiunt but stoll!!!
SKULL??? HE's skull??!??
I mean I thought we'kll get something about him in the main story, something happene dto him but not in movie???
Oh the grandpa from Decade! Oh yeah I forgot, this isn't an ep of W but a crossover with Decade
Oh, that's a really new outfit from Philip
Who hired them? Who's the client?
Wowm Chief is cool as Shotaro made him out to be
A driver?!
I'll be honest, I thought this rider was from Kamen Rider Ghost, not from W!
YO I?M GETTING MY WISH! Philip as fronting!
Philip Marlowe, I'll tag him that from now on
Knew that priest earlier was suspicious! The camera angles never lie!
Whoa
That funny ngl, guess Akiko is used to carrying Philip's body around
Isnt this a bit of a overkill? 3 Sonozakis'?
Why is there break in my movie? What
Are we going to Decade side now?
Sky rider?!
Kabuto adn Super-1! OMG
Omg this is we consider the actual final of Decade right?!
Are these fake riders or this being Decade being evil?
Uhuh, sure you have forgotten them. IF you truly did, you wouldn't be visiting the shop
Oh yeag, Onodera is still being mind control, forgot about that
Kamen Rider J I presume or no?
Daiki your a fake "IDGF", you aint nonchalant you think you are
TACKLE?! That's TAckle????
I mean, I saw her on the poster but still...
The lovers are fighting lol
That's very born out of anger thought, not a very Kuuga response...
Doctor Death/Shinigami... I forgot Decade is very much a love letter for the Showa lol
Aw seriously? What's with the arm grab??? Annoying
The lovers are fighting
I was just thinking about that actually... Is Yuriko here a Worm? Won't be surprisng is the Kabuto BS is here
I wonder how my stalker be watching decades' part. I have context over here. Hm.....
TSUKA you did not do that?!
Goodness, I forgot about him transforming others....
Onodera is taken over by hatred, I see
The form is pretty elegant
huh.... wow, fixed the world. Congratulations, Tsukasa
Well, in a way, that is true. Decade has no story, if it weren't for others, Decade wouldn't have existed.
I supposed in Onodera heart, he deeeply thought about Tsukasa has a plan
Not again....
RIP Tackle, you went the same way I like you as. Good job
I'm starting to understand why the Decade Fandom like these four together lol. i guess it truly establish itself in this movie. That's hilarious
Joker? or Shin?
Doras? Is this from a movie? or made up character for this movie?
This is insane but not as insane as the first Decade movie.
What? Wgat is happening in this move??? PSlit? What??
There were playing in W's world the whole time? Man, should've expected that
I'm getting annoyed, my website is hanging up at this climax fight
I.... um I'm unsure about this ultimate attack?
Uh! One last final goodbye?
Oh, alternate universe, dang.
Awwww Shotaro
Still, would be nice to acknowledge Akiko tho....
Ha! Lovers fr
Philip I feel your a bit underdress for the weather?
Aw cute
I need to get this ending song, would love to listen to it while studying.
I do like this is how Decade ending be, personally I find the first to bemore fun but this one has more substantial ending for Decade at least.
Side note, this credit of a look at behind the scenes is pretty nice to see. And the main four of Decade getting boquete is cute and 2/4 of them getting emotional ahhhhh
Ah, what. WHAT !
ACCEL??? Well then... I'm glad to watched the credits to see this...
Just small preface and text before putting "read more" breakline since I like my reactions hidden since I kinda consider them spoilers. So, Helping out the others who havent watch W yet.
EPISODE 11:
Ok so, I was eating the whole time and locked in. With the episode ended, I was trying to figure out what exactly the twist was for the virus. I thought the twist that it can infect vehicles, but nope! So, this is a zombie situation. Now... I think the Dopant would be Yushi-something name guy. The guy whose supossed to get married. They're both in cahoots. My honest first thought was, "This guy feels like a second rider!" Because surely we'll get a secondary rider here. I know for a fact Kuuga is the only Kamen Rider (with the exception of Showa Riders) to not have a partner. But... Isn't there technically two riders? Then again, I consider both Philip and Shotaro as primary riders, nothing secondary and such. So, I'm still waiting for that.
Anyway-back to my ramblings about Yushi-something named guy! He's definently the Dopant from the tibit informaiton he's a starving artist. Honest First thought would be Yuusuke from Persona 5, but I remembered... The virus wasn't really paid for, and all I can think is that.
EPISODE 12:
WAIT! DONZ TELL ME the Dopant is the sister! The Yushi-giy gave it to her in hopes to save his beloved but the virus was unexpected and now unwillingly controls the ilder sister! Which is why it's crying adn sad! I'm not insane for this deduction surely
I love the fact Shotaro is just letting both Philip and Akiko tell him that he's an idiot
Yushima is his name! Also I'd say redherring
Hmmmm.... I still think it's the sister. However, there is a chance it made its own consciousness
It has no form?
The improbable is the posible! Also, I might be right
PIMP?!
will he do a hard-boiled decision?
how empty
That's a very satisfying punch. Though I wish there's more punishing consequence for him to realised what he's doing is terrible
In the end, Shotaro get sick lol
I do want to say, we've been getting sombre and solemn Shotaro narration by the end alot now. By alot I mean this is the second time. Then again.... I get to see a tired optimism ending, tired ending, an actual good ending, then last episode ending to be... solemn face. I suppose we're getting serious now.
EPISODE 13:
Gross, stop bothering her man
THE WINDMILLL?!?!?
So like, that's the sevent windmill installed or...?
Also while th intro is playing, are the windmills like a spy network for the Sonozaki family?n Thier company is WindScale after all
Man, it sure is hard to be popular
Shotaro, this isn't the time for your hard-boiled acts
I don't blame her for her actions, especially with her callibar, she's bound to attract creeps and your acting isn0t helping your case Shotaro
Honestly, Kihiraki is totally trying to undermine what he considers the "weakest" Sonozaki, considering what she's doing isn't quite... productive to their cause. Smart play but totally underestimated play. They only reason why he's this haughty is because Seako is backing him up
Ngl here I thought that we'll focus on the skull man but we got boulder instead
I'm not sure about this development with my theory...
She0s fine, basing on her name "Clay Doll" she'll form right back up. I'm guessing the only way to defeat her is through heat and hardening her to shatter her completely
EPISODE 14:
I'm guessing her manager but that's red herring for sure... or...? Not?
Oho? Sonozaki theory is correct?
They can try confuse it with romance all they want but I know better!
Wait, so it's Makoto? I really don't think so, I still say it's the Manager
Ah so it's both
Girlie you kinda have to kill her tho? She knows your secret?
So we are connecting the dots now? Here I thought we'll get it around EP 20
hmmmm? Avoiding the truth, then?
What does this mean? With father's little smile
We're totally getting serious now haha
EPISODE 15:
Is this a new research topic? Or just Philp wanting to get stronger?
Research practice then
Ah, kind of both then?
So, its the Skull man, oh wait, not him
This is the first time we get to see a classic Showa Kamen Rider trope! That's hilarious!
Impersonation? Funny as hell. Better yet, just like Showa, it's blatantly obvious it's not even the Kamen Rider lol
The running gag of Akiko always accidentally finding the perfect keywords is pretty funny. At this point, don't doubt her, Shotaro lol
Impulsive, understandable, but still.. Nice to know why use Kamen Rider's name
Goons?
I forgot what's the name of this Memory, but they modeled it after that?
You'r biggggg sister!
Raito? That's his name? No that feels odd, not very fitting. I feel there's a lie in there. Family not really but name? It's really not clicking
EPISODE 16:
Before starting the episdoe, i do want to make some predictions first. I'm guess the new memory that Terror is asking would be Philip. As an individual memory are weak, but as a double it's strong. In some way, Philip, as Raito, volunteered for such work? Wakan was kept in the dark about this or maybe not, instead told that Raito died in the process of research. Hmmm.... I want to guess after Philip, Wakana could be next to the new memory, but let' shope Terror isn't that bad of a father. But given Seako has eldest daugther syndrome. So, maybe not
Let's start the episode.
OH SHIT WAIT! I FORGOT I NEED TO WATCH THE MOVIE Be right back
Alright! I finished the movie! And it revealed a teaser for our secondary rider! Accel! Which, I'm guessing to be "New Project" that Terror is talking about. Other than that, I got my wish of seeing Philip fornting! Horray! Which makes me think that that's how they'll get Philip out of the Sonozaki's clutches.
Now, let's start the episode for realises this time
Whats wrong with Fang though? He helped you escape?
This Kenji guy has the same energy as the puppeter guy in Kiva
First time skipping the intro to do this...
Very emptying without the other two in the room....
Ngl I would imagine the same way Akiko if a memory move one its own
Oh, makes sense if something op like that has its drawbacks
I know Philip will make it, but I do want an AU where he didn't
Oh FANg!
AHHhhhhh! LETS GOOOOOO
TO be fair though, Shotaro's body isn't in shape to fight with the torture/injury he went through with Kenji
Not the greating burning of libary of Alexandria!
Let's go Partners!
What abour you're injuries tho Shotaor? Bah, who am I kidding, kamen rider is reckless
Lol, the little pull down first
Jin, have you thought Shotaro told Kamen Rider about you?
PHILIP?!
EPISODE 17:
What is happening, is this paced like flashback to the present?
30 minutes?
Shotaro really knows a lot of people
I wonder if Seako informed Kihirika about how W's driver works? If not then he's just assuming Shotaro to be a lunatic lol
Thinking about it, Terror isn't informed at Philip's disapperance then? I assume Philip has a hand in making memory
Or not? He know?
How are these junior highschoolers able to buy these gaia memories?
What with the Grolilla???
Ah, so not bought then?
Is the hotshot going to be Accel?
Philiè... your puttiing yourself in harms way, arent you?
Yippie! More Philip fronting!
does this mean you need to defeat all users of the memory?
Is fang compatible other than joker or just joker?
EPISODE 18:
If automatic defence on Philip's side then it's only natural to assume Shotaro's side is the weak spot of Fang Joker's form
Ho? Unllikely allyship?
Oh, Kirikiho didn't seem surprised to see Philip instead of Shotaro, sooo I'm guessing he knows how W's transformation works and Shotaro didn't seem like a lunatic earlier lol
Once again, cured by defeating all users? I see that being the solution but maybe there's something else. But it can be a lesson, when there are times pain and a bit of crying is a key to happiness? Or a good life? IDK man, I'll put more thoguht later, the intro is ending
Ah, seako's scheme then
Geez, that's heartbreaking
What a scummy thing to do
is this the same hall from Agito?
Wakana, I know youre there, do something at least? Or not? Maybe you do know about the secret of the house and just look doubtful that Kirikiho found it
Lol Akiko
Ooooooo, so Wakana truly not know?
Sacrificing himself now? Ah, death flags everywhere...
Prove me wrong Kamen Rider, that the death flags are wrong...
Krihiko...
Oh, you do love her... I'm so sorry Kirihiko
Man, I can't be in my feels here? We have to introduce our secondary? Geez.
End of episode. I supposed by the death of Krihiko, a long standing character, you would want to introduce another... Still though, I wish he didn't die. He was interesting to watch also heart breaking to let go. I really can't find myself to be curious of this supposed "I hate Fuuto" character. He was intresting by the end of the movie but still... I supposed, in a Kamen Rider formula, secondary's get introduced around ep 20, so ep 19 and 20 is Accel's true introduciton to the main story.
It's a half way point, I'll let my sadness fester and continue watching tomorrow. I honestly wanted to rant about Sonozaki's Dopant form names and how does it correlate to their character point. And maybe talk about their driver positioning as well! bUt alas, I must mope my feelings. Its a nice feeling to be in.
While I'm taking a break from continuing watching W to relish my feels, let's talk about Riderman, Yuki Joji's appearance in Kamen Rider Stronger. It's funny to see that he's still headstrong and recklessly pursuing his enemy, and even gets possessive of who the enemy is going to be defeated by. I found that quite weird since I thought we were over that character trait of his, but I thought this was just the writers wanting a little nostalgia nudge from Yuki's first introduction?
But thinking about it more, it still didn't click with me how Yuki acted, since the reason why he's quite stubborn about who gets to defeat the enemy before was that it was out of vengeance, and he has personal attachments as well. But Armoured Knight doesn't really have any of those connections at all? He's just an evil guy that Yuki is pursuing, so why is he so prissy about who's defeating the guy???
Thinking about it a lot, it all comes down to responsibility. Yuki felt personal responsibility when it came to taking down Armoured Knight, as it seems he couldn't have defeated him in Greece, which seems like a personal failure to him. Guilt eats him inside at the number of people Armoured Knight had hurt, and that angers him as well, fueling this guilt as well. Hence not quite rational when it comes to dealing with the Knight.
Which is why when Yuki told Shiro that Armoured Knight is his to defeat, Shiro understood Yuki's feelings towards the villain and respected them.
Ahhhh---Shiro, you're quite patient with Yuki lol. Anyone wouldn't see past Yuki's recklessness and illogical reasoning in fighting a lieutenant 1v1 when it's more efficient to 2v1 him!
Turns out, I need to watch 14 episodes before watching the crossover movie. Figures.... Anyway, I looked up our main characters' ages and was very pleasent surprise to see them being young adults! It's been a while! Was getting worried that we'll be having younger and younger main characters as we go through the seasons. Other than that, not all episodes will have my reaction to it tho, since I'm writing this to ensure I pay attention to the episode. If not much reaction then that means I'm very locked in
EPISODE 5:
From the design, this powers through Solar energy then? Surprise it^s not wind power with how this town is obsess with windmills... Hmmm, is theme family or childhood in W? I'm not japanese so I'm basing this on all media and most japanese media I've seen, but whatever activity parents play with kids and kids playing with each other, there's always a montage or given show of paper windmill.
I guess the police will always the butt of the things from now on...
What?! Why is this family being target?! Is she that influencial!?
Papa?
Wait the little figure, don't tell me Asuka's papa is a Dopant and similar to W's stature? He became a Dopant for his family? Turned trator now his family is being targeted?!
YAY! KAmen Rider!
Is this to draw out how many forms does W have?
Yeah i would roll my eyes too
Sigh, here I thought she was sincere about energy for a better future for their kids, sustainably. But Shataro was right in assessment of using her kid as marketing tool
Oh yeah... no kidding... ppl not having trust in government these days... surely putting a performance would gain their trust again
That's awfully nice
Akiko, that kid only called Kamen Rider to be her dad, not Shotaro. Which also, she didn't recognised him as her father too! Then what about Philip??? Since he's Kamen Rider as well, then he's her father too!
Gah! I'm getting to worked up on this. I get these is supposed to be funny, and we need gags likes this, but I generally don't find things like this funny
I really don't understand Akiko at all...
Hmmm... I guess there is some sincerity in her words when it comes to the future... but still, not all...
You know, thinking about it, any Sonozaki side we're shown, I wonder if this is Philip's side of POV. And obviously, Shotaro's POV is his and the them.
Vinigar? i'm guessing Vinigar
I'm right! Also, why? It's not like that will shock him out of the bin
I thought Alachol makes you nice and loose?
I had to pause at that friend line... You know, despite watching All Heisie Part 1 and Kamen Rider 1971 to Stronger, I forget that it's common for Kamen Rider to not really tell their identity... Ahhh, I'm still stuck in Kuuga mindset.
You know what, lloking at that dolll, I think that holds a Memory. Specifically her papa's memory
Oh! I know that office! That's the office they used in Kabuto and Decade's world of Blade!
That man seems in love but at the same time not quite? He feels affections but not in a way feels natural? It's confusing...¨
I'm not liking those words Ms. Mother
Rival tension! Yippe!
Philip... you may look funny but I agree with Akiko's earlier statement... it's bothering me too...
Well, instinct isn't really logic, at times it's to rely on those, Philip!
Yes, but the expense of your daughters life too?
Understandable but still... lying is annoying, even the little ones.
a what?
Oh, I thought this was "I do my best" meme creature
I'm.. still on the fence on the split kamen rider kick...
Episode finish, I have no notes, I'm going to the next one.
EPISODE 6:
I did a bit of a short break before resuming
Do titles correlate to the rider's story? "Girl... A" for the side of Philip or his family and thre "The Price of Lying" for Shotaro. but the thing is, previous episode just somewhat applies to both riders but still...
Dreams are nothing if your dead to make it
Yeag! Go tell her Sshotaro!
Ok, with Shotaro's hair not on hat, I really feel like the other group seen on the windmill on the Opening isn't them future trio but actually Chief, mysteroius woman, and Shotaro....Dont point! it's rude
Hmm... Does Seako only knows or the whole family is in kahoots? The maraigge was out of something Seako needed? Hmmm... mystery, mystery..
Damn that look delicious!
Hmmm, I supposed Akiko's role would be extra hands then?
I'm guess if Akiko can't handle the bill, she'll push it to Shotaro lol
Huh... So Philip's libary also has memories of people as well? Weird... I'm guessing Asaka's father's memory is part of the libary because he's part of the company? No way random peoples memory are just in the gaia libary
Sigh. Should've known
What does this imply hm?
the little salut is cute
The combos are cool ngl
Poor Akiko, getting darged again
dead man
Once again, emotional distancing or wishful thinking from this wwriting. Gaining something... I suppoed closure finally from Asaka but still... just... uuughhhhh, I really can't communicate it well... I feel terible for the belief Asaka never knows that her father is in fact dead. The lie is still upheld.
Hm....
Ok Episode Done. It's nice that Shotaro acknowledges perhaps in the future Asak will know the truth, that is if her mother told her so... A 'happy ending' note? As if, we didn't even get to know why they don't want the tower build besides it's an area for their operation. Is developing the city for an efficient energy source not good? Bah, it's villains, probably something about their ego, so I'll settle for a simple answer. Other than that, why was Asaka's father memory in the gaia libary? Hoping these gets answered later.
EPISODE 7:
You know... sometimes Shotaro feels like an older brother looking over his troublesome siblings....
Is the Dango person the roach?
Why...are we dancing?
oh, good dance but not as good as Ryutaros
So.... are all cats Dopats?
Well... he is a roach
Goodness, sibling coded
I've been thinking abiut Kihiriko's role. He's truly replacable as a SOnozaki. I know the relationship are a bit bussiness like but there is a bit of familial affection at least. When it comes to Kihiriko, there really none? Just what excatly do they plan for him?
"You're trying to hide her from me" that's... very line is eugh
Why is this kid starting emoting???
Um... peacock dancing?
Boyo... this is kinda embarassing
Does this mean you can do it with Shotaro then? Or not really since you're in one body still
Sooo, is Chizuru the roach then?
Huh, this never happened before... Well kinda in Ryuki but dang. So, what does this do to Philip's consiousness?
EPISODE 8:
Still though, how come Philip can't see Heaven's tornado? Red herring on the actual one?
Man, Philip is very one-sided today. Well, tunnel vision is the better term for it
Try partners!
Good job Detective!
Surely there's a symbolic at the distaance of their backs. In typical fight media, shwoing of backs means of weakness of an enemy, but they'r enot enemies, showing both of their backs means they do trust each other. However, there's a big distance between them. They both trust each other but they both hide the trust from each other as well. Wonder how this will play...
Forced Proximity! Good trope!
Of course, Miscommunication trope was in this partnership lol. Force Proximity to break the miscommunication! let's go trop e book!
Philip.... I'm understanding what Shotaro really meant when you get hyperfixeated on things
Are we getting Philip Fronting?!
Awe, so no
This fight oddly reminds me of Ryutaros
EPISODE 9:
His father is the chief...
Right, you guys haven't told her that her father is dead
THEY GOT CREAMED TO DEATH!
Another letter title from Philip's side of the title. Now I have to look at the previous titles now...
Ok just check, all Philip's side has a letter on them. Wonder what's the creative intent from that?
Maybe beacuse whenever shotaro has been investigating, you've been in the way of it? I'm hoping you get to prove yourself here and make me take back my words. It's been 9 episodes already
A reaction from Philip at the family name? I'm pretty confident my theory will rang true since I did managed to uncover Mahou Sentai Magiranger missing father plot!
Akiko... you... fearless
Space! Personal Space!
... I'm crying
This girl is stressing me. She's stressing me everytime. IWhy can0t we have it like last episode...
Geez! Total negative energy!
Yeah, but her father got creamed to death
Windscale... that's owned by the Sonozaki family right? It's implied...
NARUMI AKIKO!
qoieqrhgibquerjnf
GIRL WHAT
I'm having a headache
Girl no. NO! NO! NO!
Ugh! I know this is to progress the plot but can it progress without me stressing???
EPISODE 10
If Saeko shows up as Taboo then cast will know whats up. So, what will cause the interruption then?
Ah of course. Terror
Well,,, at least Akiko is locking in
Well, this explain her behaviour, alright. I forgive everything now, with this context
This is practically hinting he's the bad guy....
AKIKO THAT'S JUST STEROTYPICAL!
Ugh! I just know this is some 3d chest move to jus tbring out a reaction but still!!
Yeah, I honestly thought the same when Akiko accused the other maid. Red herring to the true culprit.
Chills
Why do they keep showing him naked...
Ok... we ended the episode with angst... fantastic, I say with enthusiasm...
Unlike in Showa, I do think we'll be keeping Kahiraki for a while than replacing him. That's more Hesie Style. But who knows, this is NEo Heisie, there might be unexpected changes I don't know of.
For now, this is where I end. I need a break and maybe draw things as well.
AHHHHH It's finally time! Like any other kamen riders (with the exception of kuuga ) I haven't really read the synopsis. Although I already have an idea what W is because 1. Stalker spoiled me on we have a fused rider, 2. a stupid Youtube title told me it's a detective show >:T 3. Decade gave a small idea of their dynamic...
Anay lets' goooooo
EPISODE 1:
WTF is going on
Oh wow we're getting stright into this
I'm feeling deja vu of whagt I'm feeling now....
I'm skipping the intro for now since <i noticed from Kabuto, they started showing spoilers on what's happening in the episode, will watch it after the ep is done tho
Besides that, that roller coaster of an opening reminds me of <blade, where shit suddenly happen and Idk how or why???
Oh! We have two titles? That's neat!
that's not the voice I expects, no idea if the hat one is Philip or Shotaro since he havent introduced himselt yet.... Or that could be just a performative voice
Oh! Unexpected lol
Oh! Hthe hat one is Shotaro
Shotaro is... thearatical
Hidden enemy from the girl?
Where did that camera came from???
OOOOO gravling watch!
Is this mansion used by Shinkenger and Kabuto?
OMG! A cat!
This feels like an overreaction when he saved your life...
I'm guessing Philip like's fried octupus base on his reaction?
So as suspected. Philip is the man in the tube and the one freed.. and supposed devil?
Oh! Not fused! Just conciousness fusion! That's nice to know
THEY SPLIZT?!
Ok, I managed to watch the opening and to say that I can finally watch the opening all the time whenever starting an episode! No spoilers were given!!!
Anyway, with first episode done, I supposed I'm thankful at the fast then slowing the pace. Tho I wonder if it's going to continue that way or be like blade all over again... Blade bign slow then suddenly fast pace, then whenever I got used to the pace it got faster again.
EPISODE 2:
Ooooo Like a detective board!
W just standing in front of the moonlight and on top of a building with their cape flowing reminds me of Batman
Why do we always end up by this windmill? Is there anything important other than Shotaro's wind?
So, does Philip ever leave the place? I know innapropriate time to question since we're investigating now and Shotaro's playing TV detective theatrics, but still...
Pretty sure that's a prank dianasour?
Or not? Wow, it's actually real deal
Bat?! KIva?! WAKE UP!
Shotaro you're still injured? You didn't bother bandaging up???
Ah should've seen this coming. Considering she didn't particulalrly looked that sad at her boyfirend's death
Really a 'devil' expression on Philip when making his prediction
Oooooo the music is really elevating this
The so called 'devil' is pipqued intrest. Wonder same as Hajime situation, learn to be human?
In the flashback, two people whispering behind her back, is this what alerted the sales man to give them Gaia memory?
This seems very insincere
Oh wow, the expression! You can tell Marina's words struck Shotaro
Of course they'll make transformation 'sexy' but at leas her transformation is great!
Philip to the rescue?!
Wait, so he does go out!
Protect Philips body! !!
This is the most CGI i've seen from a Kamen rider...
Ok then... manhalding philips body like tha tbut I guess he's studry?
Ok for a moment I thought metal meant W get's a shotgun
Poor Namuri, granted this was her own doing on following, but at the same time she had gone through alot
Why's Kirihiko topeless?
WHY IS HE NAKED???
First thing to say dramatic to write your own entries. That's my only unsiours take, for the serious take on Shotaro writing this, emotionally compromised or trying to find through this emotional grief of arresting someone he knows, wishing for another end. It's a way to distance himself and look at the situation in a unemotional way, or rather censor it like some sort of detective novella. I just know his heart is just angsting lol. After all, he's a hard-boild detective!
Of course, Philip heartedly nice enough to break inner emotional turmoil to say unintentionally say Shotaro isn't alone in this. Shotaro a bit taken back and likes the correction on the journey of this hard path.
Ahhhhh, what a start. Although I know I won't be getting another dynamic like Double Riders or Godai and Ichijo, it's still nice to wish for a smooth rider relationship. But seeing how everyone saying how all Primary Rider and Secondary Rider will always have some uneasy tension. Very sad, but at least (or hope) there's just slight disagreements here and there but still smooth friendship sailing between Philip and Shotaro!
EPISODE 3:
There's a lot of windmills in this town
I forgot to mention, but surely at some point someone will take advantage of Philip's body when 's consiouness is fused with Shotaro. Hostage situation if anything. There's also the notable fact that Shator's body is Kamen Rider W, so all damages really befalls on him. Makes me wonder if there's an episode where his body got so injured that we get Philip to transform instead
OOOOO Flannel hat!
What's with Rider's being scared of dogs?
Oh man, you guys made Philip Angry!
Why did they call him sensei?
So... Philip likes conspiracy theories?
Aw sulky
That little section in the intro, where windmill of present day of the trio vs I'm guessing the futre trio? Narumi is wearing glasses and classy? Shotaro new chief and wearing white suite (Will he die like the chief?) and Philip no longer wearing hair clips...
I guess money changes people
Shotaro makes sense. Akiko hasn't really been stealty. Her shouting could've alerted their stalkee
Oh? Philip wasn't just a test tube creation?
That's interruption, that Dopant, will this be like Apollo Giest? Interrupting when he can but not quite fully on it since he has other important things to do?
Hm... no memory
Uh... sure hard to be popular
Pissing off but still, he makes good points
You know, Akiko hasn't really endeared herself to me. She's putting herself in unnecessary danger, and for what? Are we seriously just doing a damsel plot line as her characters? Fiesty so she can be instresting? Dynamic is fun and all, but it really isn't connecting
I like the cut aways to Philip's body falling down, the show is really emphasising something here
Families?!
Oh, Shotaro can see Philip's memories too?
Oh damn
End of episode! I'm honestly surprised that we're getting some Philip backstory here, like I thought that would be later, but Kamen Rider being Kamen Rider, it likes to surprise me on what happens. Typical formulas does not apply to Kamen Rider, which is nice. kinda like with rewatching kuuga, I completely missed the mark on when characters showing up. Like Teacher Kenzaki? I thought he'll show up around ep 20 but nah, he showed up earlier!
EPISODE 4
This will be the last episode for today, then waching the Decade x W movie since people suggested that either I watch that first or the first 4 episodes of W then watch the movie. OCnsidering the movie is W's origin story.
I didn't manaed to take a good look at the flash backs, soooo. Phiip has 2 sister, one obviously older. So he's either a middle child or the youngest. He's giving youngest energy ngl
Confirmed shared vision
Break down! Break down!
I'm sorry, but the Dopant human form, his hair and eyebrows just reminds me of Klarion, the witch boy from young justice/DC
Welp, time to harvest souls!
Yeah, there's a thing with windmills in W, even the intro showed it multiple times. There's also the fact sometimes used as an introductory of the episode. Wonder what they're tryig to tell about windmills?
Ah, so no family in Gaia libary
Correction, it got stolen.
Mm, interesting, emotional outburst using 'Boku' then going back to 'Watashi' form, speaks a lot from Philips state hahaha
Simply because it's a casino game, either rigged or go with probability
Honestly... Well I guess I can appreciate Akiko's sense of justices... and her fearless nature
What's with the love for the city? is this a batman villain thing? Are htey totally parallel Gotham love really?
Goodness, she really is fearless...
Dance! Dance Dance!
More windmills
Santa?
Shotaro why do you know many people? Enccentric people...
Lmao, Shotaro really holding himself back
To be fair this isn't really detective scene
All in already?!
Oop nvm
Mmm, this will be ending winning then suddenly loosing then hopeless then laugh then winning again with some meories as well. That's my prediction and I hope that gets shattered
Uh oh, frozen!
Well, at least my expectation got shattered in a different way!
Kitty kitty! Cutie!
All in! We're totally cheating!
Oh...
Man I miss this feeling of being bamboozled
akiko you really have no faith, either way Shotaro got this funny enough. Not just becuase beiliving he's a kamen rider but... I think it's the same way, well somewhat different but kinda the same way whenever Godai says it will be fine.
Or maybe I'm assured it's because he's the joker side of W?
Gravy? What?
Girl, weren't you just not having faith earlier?
Mind connection answer?
Yep! Knewt it!
Well, I was concerned tehe enemy knowing that they have 6 memoreis but since the Dopant will die here without informating the family, it's fine
Ah wait... Is the twist the Sonozaki family Philip's family? Fits that he has two sisters. Something happened to the wife and Philip, philip being in a statis chamber and in
If we're welcoming a new family member in this episode, while Philip is discovering his family, isn't this too much of a coincidence? There's also Philip having intrest in Sonozaki Wakana that he doesn't understand. Small connections there
The cat is also a Dopat?!
Ooo We have viewers! Will this start the legend of Kamen Rider?
Cute, but expected. I wonder is I got it right the moment Philip get's the lost pages
Wanted to draw Hayato wearing a big hat since he's the only character consistently wears a hat with almost every new outfit he wears. Of course I couldnt resist cat hat as well...
