I technically started with Ryuki (which was dubbed in Filipino on TV) but I never got to the end of the series and by the time I was introduced to Decade, I forgot about the plot and stuff. For me, Decade was the gateway towards making you want to watch the previous Rider series for a more in-depth backstory. Of course, there are always new fans who would rather take the Heisei era chronologically, but then again, the anime adaptation should've been from Kuuga in that case, not W.
Just as an aside, I was able to reach the latest Saber episode and I guess it went as dark as Gaim (and maybe Build) for the plot thickening. Removing certain Kamen Rider expectations made the whole series watchable for me, which was somehow refreshing. I was able to appreciate Zero-One from the get-go (whereas there has been quite some hate from the fandom which I wasn't able to comprehend nor sympathize with), so as with some Rider series I skipped due to personal taste, I tried skipping Saber initially. I guess watching DX toyline demos in Youtube gave me the understanding I needed to appreciate the transformations and attacks in the series.
You don’t have to watch it but skipping it all cause the first arc is kinda dumb cause it’s not the real experience of the overall show.
After going through the wiki I've listed down every genre Kamen Rider has done, they don't re-use any (except Time but that's anniversary exclusive) so I can look at these and guess what could be next, something that they haven't done. I'm personally thinking it's gonna be Thieves or pirates. So, I thought up gimmicks for each.
PIRATES
Lass Driver:
It's a Belt with two swords facing away form each other. There is a skull like shape in the middle with a pirate head. You insert your treasure in the middle slight, slightly raised forward in front of the cosmetics. You then Go to the right corner and the press trigger, resembling a guns. The swords cross, and together with the "skull" for a Logo resembling one belonging to a Pirate. For Special Moves, finishers, and summoning weapons, you do your Treasure's gimmick and then press the trigger.
Treasure:
Treasure can be various things, depending on the rider. They all are about the same general shape, to fit into the Lass Drivers slot. Every one has a special gimmick. The main one is a piece of Gold, simply with a button. With the Gold you press the button x many times, and then press the trigger to do the special ability. By the way, they are all see through so you can see the cosmetics behind them.
THIEVES
Mask Driver:
Similar to the one in Drive, it's a combination between a Belt and wrist Cosmetic. The Driver is a tube. You open up the lid, and then place the Sacred Object in. There will be a corresponding action inside the tube. Afterwards you have a band on your hand with something resembling a card. you lower it over the Driver and a corresponding transformation will happen too the card. Then you press the button on the band and the Henshin happens. For the base one it's a Diamond. You place it in the tube and then it lights up with lasers everywhere, resembling a stereotypical defense used for Jewels in museums seen in media. The card is a forged key card. In folds and a blade pops out, making a knife.
Sacred Object:
For most at the start it doesn't have any major use besides placing it in the tube. For a power up I imagine it's a cube and the tube on the Driver has a bunch of small ones connecting too it. When the cube it placed in the smaller tubes fires smoke into the main tube, and the cube pops open. Each small tube has a valve on it, so you can twist that and more smoke will come out on a single one for a weapon, other form, etc.
Kento meets Hayato's spirit to confront him about all the pain he's inflicted. Instead Hayato knows he can't properly repay Kento for being a terrible father, however convinces him to not seal the seiken's as a swordsman's personal sword is a very important item. It's a lifelong partner that bears the guilt and bloodshed with them, and he says there has to be another way that doesn't involve sealing swords. And if there isn't, make one.
Kento returns to being Espada, and Espada gets a power up form that takes up 3 slots. Touma gets Yuri's help to use the power of Avalon to analyze some recovered pages from the Great Book. It says destiny can be changed, but only once. You must offer up a great sacrifice. Touma doesn't know what this means, and goes on a journey to find out. Rintaro stays cause he doesn't want to risk Mei's life again, and every other member wants to focus of more normal-ish duties.
Ren's past is revealed and he is related to the legendary figures that created the Great Book. Dezast is trying to get him on the evil side for that reason, because he is the true key to unlocking it's full power once the Great Book is whole again, you need someone from the creators bloodline. Kento on the other hand is going on a self discovery journey and runs into Bacht, Kamen Rider Falchion. Bacht becomes an temporary ally that Kento doesn't trust. Ren ends up fighting Dezast and killing him.
Yuri unlocks Avalon's full power, but has to give up his life. In exchange, the Great Book can be immediately assembled, no matter where each page is or where the fragments of it are. But a Wonder Ride Books however can be held back, creating an incomplete book. So the SoL members steal Durandal's Book and get Reika on their side. Touma returns to the SoL as well, with a new form. Kento and Bacht arrive at a special location where there books fuse. Bacht takes the super powered book for himself and leaves. Master logos sees that they plan to use all of the books in a scheme not with his permission, so he plans to stop them.
Bacht has ties with Master Logos, he was here when the team was created and was going to be a member, but Logos betrayed him and casted him away. Hiss spirit suffered in an eternal flame, and he came back wanting revenge on the world. Now he just wants to see Logos' downfall. They activate the process and the Great Book comes together. Bacht stops Logos' before he can stop the operation, and dies. But in return, Logos' also dies. However He has his soul transfer to Calibur, who's the last piece of the book. The interruption stops the whole thing from completing. Calibur transforms Logo's soul into a completely new being.
Touma fights Calibur in a dream world, finding how Jaaku Dragon originated, the creators of the Great Book, and more. He gets Logos' true spirit to come through, and slays Calibur. The book returns and the Great Book is complete. Destiny is changed and a new timeline of event awaits the main cast of characters. However Touma doesn't return from the dreamscape.
Wow! There is actually a thread for Kamen Rider! We actually love Beyblades and Kamen Rider but there is no Kamen Rider show and products in our country so we decided to just focus on Beyblades in our channel. Hopefully we can get Kamen Rider show again or even in Netflix!

I just realized....if this year is the 50th anniversary year (it is) does that mean the next series, which starts this year, will be an anniversary season?
Well, here's my idea
Plot: A mysterious dimension called Exodia collides and fuses with Earth. The world is in a panic, and peace shifts into chaos. Eventually everything calms down, and 5 years pass. However there is still chaos brewing. A mysterious group called the "Z" want to harness Exodia's time shifting powers for evil. Meanwhile, an organization called Xodia harnesses the power of time to protect the peace. Shinji stumbles upon a Core and becomes a target of Z. That's when his life suddenly gets involved with Xodia.
Drivers: X (Cross) Driver. You insert a core, a Progise Key like item that is molded after a key card, into the middle of the belt. You then press the button on the Core and then twist and pull out the handle on the right. The front of the core opens and displays a symbol that shines through the front. For a finisher you turn the handle again, and then push it into the Driver.
Z Driver: You insert a core through the top, and then push in the right side of the driver. This permanently pushes it in, and extends the left side out. The left side displays a symbol displayed from the core. For a finisher you pull the right side back out, and then twist it.
Xodia Riders:
Shinji Kakumei - Kamen Rider X (Cross)
Oran Shizumu - Kamen Rider Grand
Paleon Yori - Kamen Rider Shade
Shima Kaizoken - Kamen Rider Eclipse
Z Riders:
Trace - Kamen Rider Z
Flint - Kamen Rider Trio
Hiran- kamen Rider Gage
Forms:
Forms can be accused through the core. You either put multiple cores in, or switch out the front plate of the Core with multiple pieaces, representing other riders. Here are some final forms.
Unlimited Rift - Kamen Rider X (Cross). Accessed through using the Shining Exodia Core and the Mugen Hopper Core, along with the Final Bout attachment. Final Bout goes on the top of the driver and after the Henshin has been activated, you slot it on and twist the back, with makes the panel on the front drop down.
Grand Nexus - Kamen Rider Grand. Accessed through using the Cores Twilight A and B.
Z Finale - Kamen Rider Z. Accesed through using the Full Z Core, a core that takes up both sots, and a Hijacked X (Cross) Driver. The Hijacked Driver lets you not only turn the Handle, but spin it. This unlocks the full power of each Core which can be harmful for the user.
Concept - Future Riders:
I think that it would be cool to show Riders from possible futures, like in Zi-O.
Personally I would prefer an Ex-Aid like series though.
Now that I think about it I would prefer some nods at old Kamen Rider series, but not a full on anniversary season. So scrap that idea.

So, Durandal is King Crimson and Touma has the Epitath? Aight then. The debut of Tategami was also really good. Next episode seems cool. Kento seems neutral around Touma until they get into a fight, but they run into Logos who fights them. We also see Ren and Desast fighting Sabela. Also I think Touma actually dies, rather than it being another vision of Kento's.
Faiz got released by Toku HD...the guys that did Honshin in Agito. Orphnoch? They subbed it as Olfenok. Also Olnofelk as well. Toei really needs to give everything to Shout Factory man.
Saber will probably have 44 episodes, because there are 11 volumes of blu-ray releases planned for saber and each volume has 4 episodes. I've been enjoying Saber, so it sucks that it's probably ending really soon.
33
Rintaro is trying to chase after Reika who stole Suzune, Gekido, and Ikazuchi. Yuri and Mei join him to make sure his new power isn't taken. They encounter Ren and Desast fighting Reika. They become suspicious of Ren, thinking he's working with the Megid. However they notice Reika also only has Suzune. Meanwhile Touma is walking and encounters Kento. He persuades Kento to join him for lunch. While they are eating Touma tries to talk to Kento but they get into a fight. Suddenly, Logos, appears. He has Ikazuchi and Gekido, and fights the duo.
They both join forces to fight him. Touma wants to make sure if they defeat Logos that Kento doesn't take Gekido and Ikazuchi and run away. Logos reveals Luna is the core of the Wonder World reincarnated as a human. This is because it wanted to live a human life. However Logos needed her so he kidnapped her and put her in a dimension where she has to endless supply energy for him. Logos shows off a window to the place where she is. Touma tries to rush through the portal, and Kento tries to stop him. It was a trap, and they end up in an unknown place. Touma starts withering away.
One last time he tells Kento to try and keep their promise, before vanishing. Calibur resonates and confirms to Kento that Touma's soul has been extinguished.
Photos are circulating of Master Logos Kamen Rider form. We have the mask, it’s a Jaou Dragon recolor but looks really good. A rumour for his Rider name is Kamen Rider Solomon.
Supposed TV-Kun contents
-The Last Boss Kamen Rider appears; his sword is a recolor of King of Arthur (we saw this leaked in set photos)
-Kenzan seems close to becoming a villain
-Falchion is revived, Emotional Dragon appears

Hope that's true as well, so I will also have a Kamen Rider name too aside from a Beyblade lol
Master Logos doesn't seem powerful nor great enough to be considered "Master" tho. And Blades' new upgrade looked a bit more ridiculous than Primitive and Emotional Dragon imo. Still nice to see a secondary Rider getting upgrades to match the main.

New spinoff called TTFC Direct Theater: Kamen Rider Saber
Episodes are called acts, the first one is Act 1: Saber And Parting the Mist In Your Heart, To Be As You Are
In the latest magazine scans, we see Emotional Dragon, but with Elemental Primitive Dragon's head. While it's technically incomplete this makes me think Saber's final form will be a combination of all dragons. I mean, he seems to be getting along with Kento again, so my idea is that they will fuse their dragons together.
Saber Dragon Fusion: Made up of
- Brave Dragon (dragon of courage)
- Dragons of Love and Pride (Emotional)
- Jaaku Dragon
- Jaou Dragon
- Primitive Dragon
Don't get me wrong it would be better to have it widely available everywhere, but to see people complain about Kamen Rider only being in Japan, the US, and Canada when it's in various other countries is kind of hilarious. Again it's not super widely available, but would it hurt to do some research? Black was rerunning in Indonesia from 2004 to 2020. Korea has various dubs, Kabuto and Build as an example. Dragon Knight is available for Spanish speakers (there's a lot more I won't include for times sake).... got to be willful ignorance at this point. It could be a lot better, but YES, Kamen Rider is available around the world. Pretending it's not is just lying.

A few KR series just officially subbed or dubbed in spanish last month so it is definitely around the world

Exactly my point. Spanish has a good chunk, probably one of the countries outside of Asia and USA with the most seasons legally available.
Breaking news: TV Nihon has gotta a real cease and desist. All of their subs have been removed. Overtime subs is no longer subbing or sharing raws. Heart breaking, I don’t know what idiot spoiled the fun sadly.
I’m...... incredibly lost and confused. I got got into Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, and used those 2 groups to watch the shows. What do I do know? Do I catch it live and then just relive ge experience through screenshots? How do I watch older shows? I’m busy watching Ex-Aid and Kiramager?? I can’t really out my finger on it, but I think I’m just very sad. I just got into the hobby, but my main support is gone, reduced to ashes.
