Oh,
got confused with AkaNinja. Damn confusing names. Cool, Sasuke had some of the best focus episodes on Kakuranger.
Garo S3 had Ryuga go through serious shit before he gets his golden armor, if you count that.
As for Rider....I dunno. Might go as far as Hibiki (which is 10 freaking years ago) who upgraded to Kurenai by training alone.
Ninninger 05
Takaharu seems to be getting better. Slowly but he's not so painful now.
Kasumi best Ninger. It's also nice to have a Pink that isn't the "girly-girl".
UFOmaru! Though I'm wondering how many of the Grandpa's stories are true or not. Granted, all his "I did X 30 times" stories sound exaggerated, but there's likely some truth to them.
Drive 23
DRIVE: TYPE FLASH! Seriously, Formula just turns him into The Flash. They should have done this from the start.
Am I the only one bothered by Gou now? He used to be fun, but now he's so angry (ALL ROIDMUDES MUST DIE) and angsty.
Curious what Brain is up to. Funny how he's meant to be the "logical" one but has been showing a ton of emotion.
What happens next? Not next week as it's CROSSOVER TIME! To promote the new movie which looks kind of hype

Time loops suck.
I haven't seen a lick of Drive, but Gou dying three times in a row in various ways was uh... interesting to say the least. Shinnosuke is basically stuck in an Uchikoshi game and I will not be told differently.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
His KIIIIIIIIIIIIITAAAAAAA is grating to the ears.
Xtreme form was kinda...mental powerup synergy to reach that state I guess.
Blade series in general was built like a rpg, where you have to kill the big bosses to get big powerups.
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
They did that in Shitz. It was OK because Wizard got his own colored podium in Kyoryuzin. And that ring that caused every dinosaur ever show up
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
Unless you're Garren, in which case your powerup
just comes in the mail
I can't believe that actually happened.
Well, don't forget that an essential card was gifted to him as well.

-Red is less annoying this week, which is good just keep it that way.
-Still think that Kasumi should have the UFOmaru than Red. <(¬_¬
>
-Kasumi still continue to be sooo beautiful. <(^_^)>
Overall the episode wasn't that bad.
Drive 23
-Poor Gou, his body and ego is bruised.
-Type Formula is slowly growing on me but I still don't like the design.
-Medic continue to be cute but scary.
- I was like "Oh No" when Mach belt was destroyed.
-I wonder what Rina was working on?
-Too bad we have to wait two week because of the cross over special. <(¬_¬)>
When was the last time we saw type techinc?

It's used in Kamen Rider 4 episode 1. I can't remember the last time it was in Drive.

The first part of the two parter where he gets Formula he uses Technic
There was a fight between those reaper Roidmudes where he just shows up in Type Technic.
Wasn't it the Pit Crew for Formula? Spanner (as in wrench), Jacky (as in to jack up your car) and Mantan (as in... full tank I think?).
You know, type formula straight up had a pitstop before catching the fourth rocket.
Huh, guess Technic just sort of blends in my mind as I can't recall it appearing in those episode.
The last memory I have of type Technic, was when he used it against Heart. Then Gou/Mach showed up and shortly Type Deadheat.
Might have been... man I need to pay more attention in the show. <(-_-)>

There's no "Mach next upgrade". At least not in the toyline. I guess he'll just get a story power up after his belt is fixed, like how Black was stronger after resurrecting or Decade was one shotting monsters after recovering his memories, but with no design changes.
Honestly I think Dead Heat will be Mach upgrade since Drive doesn't really need it anymore.
Boss Doggie

Yeah what's up with the OT names? Why Sparner than Spanner?
Cosmic was very well deserved.
Cyclone Joker Extreme and perhaps Accel Trial, too, then? Kind of a weak example but at least they had to do something before given the power. Instead of, say, crying and turning your tears into an OP form.
Good, I need Flash Man and Black RX
That one just stuck to me because it was an awkward transition. He just walks into the scene while Mach is fighting, in Type Technic. Other than that, I don't recall him using since he defused a bomb with it.

Accel Trial definitely.

Joker Xtreme had more effort put into it than Fang, no doubt.

Yes, the rest of the world must know the greatness that is Flashman.
Or at least that's what young me thought. I have to rewatch it someday.
According to Brian Ward at Shout Factory, that is the plan.
My guess is they want to get the Mighty Morphin seasons out of the way (so Kakuranger after that) then they can do what they want.
I'm hoping Kamen Rider alongside Sentai. Maybe Shout Factory can release V3 at a reasonable price.

Kakuranger will be interesting to be subbed officially.

Ysssssss, this pleases me greatly. Here's hoping that they do Kamen Rider.
Yeah Cyclone Joker Extreme was earned.
I remember that episode, I actually enjoyed it and it really stuck with me when Shotaro was trying to stop Philip for slicing Ako head off.
Dj Quills is a translator?

Goushi turned into a jedi
this hurts to watch

Karan needs to tone it down.
Fantastic interview.
It was hilarious how Mei reacted when Boi was asked about him being a girl in PR. It's too bad that those actors did return to do their own voices on the Dinosaur War movie, but they did not appear on-screen. Possibly an earlier example of the most of the cast for both shows being absent during a large part of the ToQger and Kyoryuger teamup.
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
Is this guy like extra famous or something that he got videos made for the ToQGer opening last year and the Ninninger ending this year?
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Chief and Grandpa meeting is gonna rock. I'm hyped.
This week's episode of Drive was kind of dull, but the end was wacky enough with the hi-speed hi-jinks and Mach's belt getting bashed it wasn't too bad. Disappointed they didn't pun off Jacky and have Formula Type-2 pull of kung-fu moves. Was hoping he would use the jack like a tonfa or something.
The COTD dude seemed...I dunno, like he's gonna end up playing a larger role than simply being the Roidmude host? He's giving me 'reoccurring character' vibes.

So I told my friend (who lives in Japan, ironically) that he should watch Kamen Rider. He asked me what time etc and I told him to forget Drive and go for Gaim or Kabuto. The problem here is that I know I only have one shot to hook him but idk which one to choose? I know once Gaim gets rolling he wouldn't stop, but the beginning is probably enough to make him not continue in the first place. Kabuto on the other hand is good but doesn't hit Gaim levels of good. IDK WHAT TO DO!
