Didn't mother and daughter fight side by side in the Kiva movie?

Did they transform? I don't really remember, and can't check right now, but I remember they transforming was rare, in the series, and they could fight even without transforming.
They both used EXA

In the movie? Cool, I just remember liking the movie because of the mother/daughter and father/son interactions, but don't really remember much more about it.
I remember they did once in the series, and it was hype.
Never thought i'd see the day where two female rider transform and fight together.
LMAO at Dan coming back. This dude's crazy as hell and I love it.
FAKE EDIT:
Forgot about the Kiva movie. That scene in the show where they take down Rook in different time periods was boss, though.

But that awesome Baroon Booster footage
The giant bike Kiva used maybe three times since its debut? Eww

So, we finally got a better look at the main villain (looks cool), and their ranks (so, Scorpio is an assassin, but there is a level above that). Some resolution with the Champ/Stinger situation (that would make a bit more sense if it was earlier, or if their rivalry was a bit stronger. Or maybe Stinger could just have told Champ about Scorpio, huh.It WOULD make a difference.)
I love that first person perspective. Love to see them doing different things like that.
And dat Rider Kick by Takatora.
Now... wtf happened to Spada's hair? This normally only happens on the crossover with the next team, lol.
Next episode, Garu focus? I hope so.

That's one way to deal with the massive cast, write three of them out for a bit.
Scorpio's great, loved the sudden Rider Kick.

Holy shit Kuroto's back! I figured he would be since he didn't get flowers (but then Graphite did and he came back) but wow. Still just as hammy, only now forced into "good". But hey, props to Ex-Aid for still being good even when he wasn't around.
Amazons 18
Probably the best episode of Season 2 so far since Chihiro was barely in it, and we got story.
Didn't expect Mamoru to be the main villain. At least at this point. Who knows what Jin is up to, and if that arm is his.

It does, but it's no Gaim or Fourze, but way better than Wizard.

I think some things it did better than those two, like villains, and some it did better than others, like support cast better than Gaim.
The problem is that the first part is not that good, because sometimes they force plot points that could be single episodes into two parters.
Still, they fix that mid-series, and it gets better at each episode, imo. Then again, I may not be the best person to give an opinion on that, I liked Drive way more than Gaim, lol.
Here's how I'm ranking the Neo-Hesei so far:
Gaim
W
Ex-Aid (so far)
OOO
Drive
Fourze
Ghost (so far)
Wizard
I'm working on finishing Ghost but it might take longer. I like all the above series except for Wizard, but me finishing Ghost might change that opinion, lol. Ghost is actually pretty interesting right now with the Ganma World plotline I'm watching right now.

"YOSHA LUCKY"s overall: 199*
-I'm really loving the arc setup in the show so far with Ikagen being the first major villain (and possibly Scorpio being set up as the next major one?).
-Xiao as RyuCommander is glorious.
-Kotaro is actually pretty decent for a child character. Gotta give props to the writing team and his actor for not making him annoying.
-The villain suits in this show are still quite top-notch.
-Overall, while I feel the show can be somewhat cluttered at times, when it finally does settle down and gives proper focus to characters, it does well. So I can only see Kotaro, Stinger, and Champ leaving momentarily as a good thing.
*As per my scientific method, I counted the Luckys in the episode 12 scene. Made up of two rings, the outer ring amounted to 65 Luckys, but I couldn't get an exact approximation of the inner ring, but the count came up similar, so I assumed that was made up of another 65 Luckys as well.
*Another interrupted "Yosha Lucky" in episode 11 finally evened the count out to a whole number.
*I'm counting Xiao saying "Yosha Lucky" in episode 12. While this may be counterproductive to a study about how much a catchphrase is said, I'm letting this one slide.

Nice to see the girls get (or at least try) to fight and do something.
Dan is back, yay. And with new OP powers, and as kind of an ally, now, heh. Good to see he's still good old Dan.
Only 2 last episode? I wonder if this will continue low, since next episode looks like it will also not focus on Lucky.

This series is the fucking shit. I'm pretty sure by the end it'll have overtaken Gaim for me and I love Gaim.
I skimmed through the thread a bit (nice to see some Ghost hate), but what's the general consensus on Kyu so far? It really wasn't pulling me in where I left off, which was whatever episode Orange first fought the team. Has it gotten better? Is Red going to piss me off? Is there any decent development for Sparda? Or can I just skip it.

The trademark should appear by the end of this month or middle of the next one based on historical precedent (most recent one was mid June, but previously it was revealed twice near the end of May). There's a rumor thread on 2ch, but I don't think there's any rumor from anyone who has leaked real information before.
Yeah i was thinking isn't the new thing to show the new rider off in the teamup movie?
You're thinking of Sentai.
Rider usually shows off their incoming secondary Riders during team ups.
Tiu Neo
Member
It's ok. Has some problems, but they are easily fixable, imo. Red is kinda annoying, but they toned him a bit down last episode, and next one preview makes it look like it will focus on other characters.
My bad, i was thinking of the summer movie, new riders have been having cameos in the last summer movie for the previous rider
I've been enjoying Kyuranger less and less and the songs more and more. Would've dropped it during the last 3 or 4 episodes if it weren't for the nice moments with the mechs (Xiao's really cool). Garbage characterization and most of the interesting experimental stuff with individualizing the characters through their powers/origins/suits or having Earth dominated by the Big Bad Empire evaporated in like 3 episodes.
I still can't buy Garu being such a Lucky fanboy and how this is his only personality trait, holy crap.
Btw, it was nice how Hammy handled alone the same kaijin that took almost everyone to fight before.

Two episodes ago, I guess? Eh, most of his time in scene is making funny faces and repeating Poppy/Hiiro's lines. He can be funny sometimes, but he's not really missed, imo.

You should just have watched Tv Nihon's subs for it. It likely will lose a lot of impact now that Dan has returned for real in the tv show.
Tiu Neo
Member
Yeah, probably. To tell the truth, I didn't even know TV-N subbed it, but makes sense, they sub everything.
But eh, I'll probably watch it anyway, someday. Probably after I watch the movie. There's still Kiriya!

-I appreciate how the stakes have been heightened with the introduction of Kamen Rider Chronicle. Not to mention how it gives them an excuse to make Nico a rider. Much more dedicated character moments too with the Nico/Taiga episode, the focus on Poppy as a villain, and even some scenes at CR with only Emu/Hiro.
-I'm still at odds with Emu as a protagonist. The stuff with him and Pallad is definitely interesting, but I still don't find him any more compelling personality-wise. When we do see Emu acting like Pallad, I know the actor is certainly capable of more. But as is, Emu's pretty one-note with his whole "I want to see patients smile again" thing.
-Poppy's definitely gotten better and more fleshed-out in this string of episodes.
-Maximum Mighty is still an abomination, but the fact that Ex-Aid can ditch the mech suit and fight in his normal Lvl 2 form (that's also Lvl 99?) alleviates things a bit. Especially nice with the Emu VS Pallad fight as not to make things awkward.
-Our lord and savior, Dan, is back. I need nothing else. (His revival might've been a bit of an asspull, but it's one that's totally worth it.)

Exactly. Emu works because his supporting cast contrasts well off of his persona. He stands out because he isn't an ass like every one else.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Thanks to TVTropes I realized Hyper Muteki (Invincible) is literally the Starman power-up from Mario.
The only time I liked him was in that one episode where he watched Emu (in Bugster mode) and Poppy dance, otherwise he's the poor man's Chief.

God dammit.

Yeah, on the first few episodes I kinda thought that, but even being compared to Chief is a bit more than he deserves. He's easily the weakest support cast member here.

I think the show realized that. He was with them constantly every time they were in the CR Base, but slowly got phased out. I forgot he was a character until he showed up a few episodes ago.

Finally got caught up on my Tokusatsu shows now. Both Kamen Rider and Super Sentai have been really good and glad that I'm starting to watch them again.

I started up Magiranger but not sure I will stick with it. I like the magic theme and that the team is a family. That said, the tone is wonky and not what I am wanting. How they handled the
let me dissatisfied.

Magiranger has a pretty strong running story later (starting from the late 10s) if you can get through those initial episodes.
Tiu Neo

Magiranger... I like it, it's one of my favorite sentai, but depending in what you didn't like, maybe watch something else, yeah. It's a silly and sweet plot, lots of focus on romance and family.
That said, it has some great moments, lots of highs, good villains, and I really like how diva the sixth member is.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there a toku show where either there is no monster-of-the-week or there is no transforming back to a human. The latter is really annoying as I tend to despise the childish humour/drama.
I saw a couple episodes of Gaim which was said to improve on this, but I never stayed hooked.
Also any of you aware of HeroXLine?. I just found out about some of the manga and it looks really cool but barely any of it is translated. Maybe I should focus on manga as I like what I've read of Apocalypse Zero and Guyver.
