More rumors about the next Kamen Rider show are going about.
Hint:
The first rumors that accurately described Fourze as being space-themed and the Rider be a high school student also came out at this time last year.
Just saw this post and I got to say it has me excited. I'm betting in the Sentai/Riders event movie they tease what this is going to be just like they did with W and Accel. An art themed Kamen Rider? Sign. Me. Up. New favorite already confirmed before debut.
unfortunately designs dont make the show. kiva can vouch for that

Yeah, maybe we could compile a few recommendations from each of the big franchises (KR/SS/MH/Ultra/PR) to help newcomers. Something along the lines of:
Black/Kuuga/[W or Fourze]
Liveman/Dairanger/[Deka, Shinken or Gokai]
in Space/[Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder or SPD]/RPM
Would cover some of the more highly regarded entries of each series and give a taste of their different eras. I don't really have enough experience with the Ultra series or Metal Heroes to say anything in that regard.
While I think of it, maybe Sailor Moon and Cutie Honey: The Live should be in the "WHAT ELSE IS OUT THERE?" section.
Just keep it down so this doesn't become a "X should be recommended instead of Y!" thread later.

I'll just throw in my two cents since I recently got into Super Sentai. Had been trying for years, starting with Abaranger... would watch a few episodes and then stopped. But Shinkenger was the first one I watched all the way through and loved it. Then I watched Gokaiger and loved that as well... so those two are ones I would say could be good intros to Sentai. Might not work for everyone, but it worked for me.Yeah, maybe we could compile a few recommendations from each of the big franchises (KR/SS/MH/Ultra/PR) to help newcomers.

Ole! played by everyone.
Gokaiger's plot starting to pick up again. Probably gonna marathon the next 10 eps and finish the season.
Gokaiger's only flaw is the sucky villain.
I wouldn't call him a flaw, but I was disappointed when they replaced the one that came before him. You spent the whole show with him, only to have the finale be about someone else.
The primary antagonist wasn't Walz Gil, it was the Zangyak empire. ending the show by killing of the son and leaving the head of the empire alive would have been anti-climactic and generally unsatisfactory. If anything, they should have killed him off earlier and given his father more screen time.
So coming off the 48fps thread, how did you guys feel when Kamen Rider went from 30fps to 24fps?
Or keep his son as he was, have him replaced by his father (not killed), then have the final boss be his son.
I love forward to the Gokaiger vs Gobusters movie where enter seduces Walz' mom and they attack.The primary antagonist wasn't Walz Gil, it was the Zangyak empire. ending the show by killing of the son and leaving the head of the empire alive would have been anti-climactic and generally unsatisfactory.

Damn, akibaranger really went there. Despite those....scenes, akagi and moegi had me rolling. But I kinda hope akagi being super stupid is used sparingly.
Sure. What do I add? (I don't watch them like that)
If i can make a suggestion for Power Rangers, Time Force and Lightspeed Rescue are both really good series, and would put them close to the level of RPM as well.
I would like to nominate Kabuto as a recommendation... 'cause that's how it happened to me.
I can't vouch for RPM because I haven't watched it yet. Time Force was good stuff though overall.

You need to remedy that.
Dr. K is sooooo cute.

And Ziggy's bashing that in and out of character.
I must be the only person in the world who has Kiva as his #1 favorite Rider show. Though W is fighting for that title still, and it gets close...very very close.
I have a feeling you are! What do you like about it? To me everything seems poorly explained and the characters are horrible, but Kurenai Otoya single-handedly saved the series.
Yeah, I feel almost guilty. I liked the characters a lot. I liked the general wackiness (but not cartoon wackiness like Den-O), I LOVE LOVE LOVE the music. The cheesy love stories did it for me. I mean, it wasn't a mindblower as far as the plot twists went. I like how Wataru grew up, I adore Otoya for obvious reasons, Yuri and Megumi were hot, IXA was a cool Rider. I dunno, it just did it for me.
Meanwhile, everyone seems to freaking LOOOOOOOVE Faiz and that was one of my least favorites by far. I think I feel about Faiz how everyone feels about Kiva.

I'm vouching for it. Seriously good stuff and just 30ish episodes.

Also seeing them kill the guy, civilian problem solved, dude grows big, kill it with mecha also got tiresome.
Not sure if I'll watch another season, maybe Go-Onger. But I basing that just on how cool I think the suits look. Was the season any good?
The fight choreography alone is a good enough reason to watch it. And Bae's made me cry.That's the Super Sentai formula, and it might never dramatically change. It stops bothering you after a while, though.
Go-Onger is pretty much Bob the Builder with explosions. I'd skip it.
If you want something different, try Gekiranger. Excellent villains, it mixes up the formula, and the team was always very close with each other. One of the best shows of the decade, in my opinion.
