Episode 7's out.

>Specter isn't Ted

Bad choice.
>>
Is the OP not subbed for anyone else? Everything else seems fine jut not the OP.
>>
>>13546979
Yeah looks like they forgot to put the subs in for the OP.

I mean it's not too much of a loss, but that's still a pretty big thing to forget.

Adorable.

I like how the fucks given about Ghost has dropped so much that even this week being subbed is met with a resounding "okay."

So wait, she also made that Drive magnet, does that mean she's making unlicensed merchandise?

Could Shinnosuke sue her for that?

He could, but he wouldn't.
But if she made a Mach magnet you can fucking bet Gou would take her ass to court.

Now the story is starting to slowly trickle through. Probably will start going into overdrive after they get all the new toys out of the way which is what the writer seems to be trying to do.

More like /krg/ activity has been a bit slow today. Also we had a thing going on to distract from Sub-yearning.
>>
>>13547037
Just like Gaim

Over-time fucked up the subs again back to TV-NIHON.
>>
Wait, wasn't it established that holding an Eyecon let you see Ganma in the Drive crossover? Or did they forget that was a thing?
>>
>>13547077
Is he holding the Eyecon?
>>
Spectre's henshin needs to last a tad longer and it'd be perfect.
>>
>>13547086
Yeah, he grabbed Billy the Kid and then ran with it. They didn't show him picking it up again in the scenes after that if he did drop them from what I saw.
>>
Man, even though we haven't gotten a proper insert song for Takeru, I am fucking loving this show's soundtrack.
>>
>>13547093
Oh. Well those Ganma do look different, so maybe they operate under different rules.

Either that or they needed a reason for them to be invisible to show off the Spider Lantern's gimmick.
>>
Looks like Aran might be a Ganma.
>>
>>13547104
"Might"

I think it was pretty obvious from the beginning.

Who was the monster this week based on?

An old Shocker villain.

>>13547043

And Drive.
>>
>>13547145
I think this is the style of story we will get going forth since we lost 4 episodes due to the fact with Gaim they pushed back the new Rider debut into October. Thus, we only have 12ish episodes to get every toy before Christmas out of the way.
>>
>>13547094
I'm really liking the soundtrack as well.
>>
Jeez how many "ranged attack" eyecons are really necessary?
>>
>>13547066
REEEEEEEEEEEE SPOILERS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>
>>13547145
Drive's pacing was shit because they brought back the 2 episode story arc shit
>>
>>13547221
Think of it this way.
Edison is Charge up ranged attack.
Robin Hood is Crit ranged attack.
Beethoven is Magic ranged attack.
Billy the Kid is Speed ranged attack.

So they each technically still have their different uses.
>>
>>13547094
>>13547213
The wait for an official release is killing me.

What are the chances of Aoi getting to sing an insert song?
>>
>>13547245
A lot higher if she ends up as a person instead of a mascot.
>>
>>13547239
He's just gonna get a form where he can use all the weapon attacks without having to change.
>>
>>13547221
With how many forms they're getting, it'll be hard to make them all distinct.
>>
>>13547245
Don't worry, she'll end up singing something. I bet Yurusen will also get a human form as well at some point.
>>
>>13547276
Why?
She's already perfectly fuckable as it is.
>>

Oh.

The budget overlords demanded he use the least CGI-heavy form to save moolah for the giant iguana :S

>>13547357
>when Takeru attempts a rider kick in this episode, Makoto, who is in fucking Nobunaga mode, chucks his rifle to the side and tries countering it with a rider kick
That was an emotional thing. He wanted to feel the depth of Takeru's conviction through footsies.
>>
>>13547357
>>when Takeru attempts a rider kick in this episode, Makoto, who is in fucking Nobunaga mode, chucks his rifle to the side and tries countering it with a rider kick

I'm going to chalk that up to them getting into a dickwaving contest, and Spectre wanting to do it hand-to-hand (foot-to-foot?) to end it rather than just shooting him.
>>
>>13547357
CGI budget was already spent so they have to use a Rider kick instead.
>>
>This fucking guy.
>>
>>13547381
Is there some sort of real-world basis for this character archetype? He seems to be fairly regular in Japanese stuff.
>>
When they brought up that forcing a human to resonate with an item in order to bring out that item's corresponding ghost could kill the human, I figured they'd pull a Wizard and never actually show it happening.
>>
I wonder if this is the Superior Ganma aka Javel or Necrom?
>>
>>13547301
Yeah, I was wondering why he didn't bust out Newton for the fight. She just kept flying around, and even when she split up he could have just smushed all of the bees into the ground.
>>
>>13547398
Looks like it'll probably be Javel.
>>
>>13547298
They're going through this plot in roughly real time, at least one week's time passes between each episode. We started about fifty days ago, we'll probably end with the Christmas/New Year's story arc.
>>
>>13547415
Then there was that one time Ghost took pot brownies and got stoned for twenty days.
>>
>>13547418

I think part of it is because Ghost's plan seems to be "chill at the temple until someone comes with a case, then hope it leads to an eyecon popping up".
>>
>>13547384
An autist?
>>
>>13547431

That's one thing that has been bugging me a lot in this series so far. Even though Takeru makes a big deal about wanting to take charge and determine his own destiny for his life, he and Akari are both entirely dependent on Sage to direct them around.

Which is almost certainly intentional. Hell, last week we saw Takeru making a journal/guidebook to try and piece together where to collect the Eyecons and that got thrown in the trash.
>>

>>
Wait, what the fuck? You did a useful thing? Managed to even fight off some Ganma for a little bit?

Holy shit, this is more in one scene than Shunpei did all year. Between this and being downright reasonable about telling Takeru when he was being a shit, Baldy's starting to turn into a decent character.
>>
>>13547590
Onari is basically Shunpei done well
>>
>>13547590

Onari is actually pretty good despite his loudness and penchant for overreaction. He's a good grounding point for Takeru, which is weird, but he's kind of like the guy's weird but well-meaning older brother.

It's Akari who needs to go and stay go.
>>
>>13547615
>>13547615

Akari's improved MASSIVELY ever since they dropped her stupid fedora-tipping science-is-the-answer-to-everything screechy bullshit.

She's still committed to using science to help out Takeru, but is more willing to admit that not everything is within her control.
>>
>>13547399

They want Billy to takes the spotlight. Can't have Robin Hood or Beethoven wrecking up Ganma then Billy finish it.

I still don't even.
>>

If you can't eat or sleep then how are you going to get stronger?
>>
>>13547720
You could still watch movies, but that's really half-assing the training if you don't eat and sleep too.
>>
>>13547717
It's obviously a super deep reference you're just not getting to rituals where they'd put good food and clothes on important people like rulers because they'd take it with them to the afterlife.

Thanks Youkai watch.
>>
So, I assume that Gou's shirt hat some sort of product placement on it that the sponsors weren't happy about?
>>
>>13547701

It feels even more wrong that he's using Type Dead Heat with a Mach Driver. Shouldn't he have become DH Mach?
>>
>>13547761
Probably less expensive than the important factor that it makes weird Aoi noises like Yurusen does.
>>
>>13547761
Is there a Yurusen toy yet? I remember when ToQger was on the air, they made a replica of Ticket that you could buy on P-Bandai, and it actually wasn't crazy expensive.
>>
>>13547770
>Ghost's suit was obviously designed with a much spookier show in mind

He is wearing a fucking hoodie with a little ghost tail on the back, I have zero idea where you're getting this from.
>>
>>13547776
Rider logic.

It works the same way as how Kaito kept the same undersuit in Gaim even while switching drivers.
>>
>>13547781
All those other reasons he posted?
>>
>>13547783
You don't think Statesman isn't eccentric enough to have made a Baron Genesis Driver?
>>
>>13547786
Rider suits work however you need them to when you need them to. It's the same reason some people's transformation CG effects block incoming shots sometimes but not others, or the same reason Takatora was able to stop a sword to his shoulder by transforming in a way that has never worked that way before.
>>
>>13547779
Was there an Ankh toy glove?
I assume not since they could have just used one instead of literally duct taping the original one together for the last episode.

As a toy designer myself, I feel like there's something lazy about the Ghost drivers design, specifically about the way the eyecons are implemented. With previous collectibles, it felt like the gadget was an intentional and integral part of the design and functionality, they acted like the centerpiece of the toy. With this, it almost feels like the method for putting the eyecons in was mostly an after thought. They wanted it to look like a ghost, and they wanted it to have a blinking eye, but actually slotting the eye into the toy feels poorly thought out. Yeah, just split the whole thing open and plop it in there like an old VHS tape, whatever. There's little finesse to it and it makes the opening and closing function feel disjointed. Looking down at it, it looks like some lame vacationer's fanny-pack more than a cool superhero device. I'm not surprised one of the movie preorder bonuses was an actual fanny-pack.

I dunno, maybe they were on a tight schedule and there wasn't any better way to do it. Or maybe it really was an after thought, and they just saved time but getting it done. I've often been inspired by the various gadgets and weapons in toku, it was a big part of what lead me to this job in the first place, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed by this seasons driver. On the plus side, I really like the sword at least.
>>
>>13547717
Soul need to rest too. That's pretty common tho.

So is no one going to talk about how Mr. Bad Teeth had a Ghost Driver with no faceplate stuck in his briefcase? Where do these things come from, anyway? Takeru got his from the Sage, Maktoto just seems to have his, and Bad Teeth's implies that he and Takeru's dad maybe made them.

>>13547844
At least there isn't an Andrew Jackson Eyecon.

>>13547844
Mind you they also included Nobunaga as one of the 15 Hero Eyecons.
>>
>>13547844
Can't wait for Hitler's eyecon.
>>
>>13547066
Yeah I thought that was kind of stupid since the viewer doesn't know that specter's name is Makoto since the girl just calls her Onii-chan.
>>
>>13547847
>Well, except when
Exactly, it works when it needs to, and doesn't work when they need to show how super strong the enemy is.
>>
>>13547848
There's always hope for the mid-season or final form. What else says "get shit done" like Andrew Jackson.
>>
>>13547850
And? Nobunaga was more heroic than Billy the Kid.
Billy the Kid was actually a bad person. Nobunaga just wanted to unite Japan. Or something.

>>13547817
The Driver as a whole is really the only part of Ghost's design I don't like. It just looks like a big cheap piece of plastic between the outer casing and how it has to be large enough to pop open the way it does.
>>
>>13547973
I'm sure someone has a webm of it, but there was a scene in the movie where Takatora essentially transformed backwards. Normally the suit doesn't appear until metal fruit drops, but in the film he put on a driver and got the suit suit to appear first, giving him time to block a hit and deliver a heroic speech helmetless until the fruit did drop.

The outer casing is definitely one of my least favorite design elements, it's way too Charlie-Brown-sheet-ghost. It's especially disheartening when you see how cool it looks without that out casing.

I think if they had foregone the outer casing and instead just used this, it would have been fine. If they really needed to add some sheet-ghost style to the design, just put it around the edges of this face plate.

Nobunaga can definitely be interpreted as a ruthless but ambitious forward-thinker of his time who potentially could've unified his country and ended the war going on if not for getting assassinated, that's the stance a lot of historians take with him nowadays atleast.

They do seem to be taken the general route of the person being well known/"life burned bright" as opposed to being straightforwardly heroic though, yeah.
>>
>>13548262

I don't think that applies to Billy the Kid either. He just was an outlaw who went around killing sheriffs and gambling.

I don't think Ghost is as bad as Wizard yet, but it sure isn't trying to be great. How come every time a Rider motif sounds decent or even good it turns out really underwhelming, and every time we think it'll be ridiculous it works great?
>>
>>13548336

Because writers are hamstringed by the toy line constraints.
>>
>>13548344
I don't know about that. Every KR show was about selling toys, and based on the number of forms/riders and screentime, you could say Kiva was one with the least toys to shill in all of Heisei, but that didn't make it a very good show either.
>>
>>13548104
I lost it when Ghost and Specter transform at the same time. Expected a cluster fuck but got a really fun sound.
>>
>>13548351
That's an exception. Kiva is so shit they don't even bother to sell toys. Agito was good and not too gimmicky.
>>
>>13546969
SPIDER
BAT
>>
>>13548368
Four riders, lots of alternate forms (to the point one was used just one or two times). Might not be as high-energy, in-your-face advertising, but they were aiming to sel toys in Agito like a motherfucker.
>>
we should make a huge pic with all these faces, like that "Sunrise laughing"
>>
>>13547770
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Ghost's helmet/mask is too wide-eyed and cute to be scary.
>>
>>13548393
Can you name a less gimmicky heisei rider series than Agito?
>>
>>13548470
Faiz was easily the least gimmicky Heisei series. Three riders, only one of them gets upgrades, other toys (Auto Vajin, Jet Sliger) are hardly used even during endgame.
>>
>>13547850
And Edison.

And Houdini.
>>
>>13548486
Kaixa got a shitty upgrade that just gave him access to an attack that Faiz could already do
and I'm pretty sure Delta even existing at all was to create more toys
>>
They actually took out Edison, that's a nice detail

So...what happened to the guy that Saionji got Billy The Kid eyecon from?
Wonder how Saionji started working for some ganma general too.
I'm guessing Aran probably took care of Makoto and sister while they were trapped at ganma realm?
>>
I usually love Ghost's gimmick faceplates, but making this one brown on black was a bad move. You can't see shit, I had to wait for the end card with the Eyecons to figure out what it looked like exactly. Extra sad since this one is actually really creative.
>>
>>13549055
>So...what happened to the guy that Saionji got Billy The Kid eyecon from?
Pretty sure he was just fine.

Saionji did the exact same thing that Takeru does to the items. There was nothing different.
>>
>>13549121
Seriously though, why didn't he do the same thing to previous guys he gave items to?
>>
>>13549055
You see him slumping over. He ded.
>>
Okay, I'm pretty sure that's a first.
>>
>>13549050
No shit sherlock. Now explain the cowboy hat.

G-G-G-G-Get the fuck out, this show sucks

I like it, maybe he would actually kill some mooks with weapons untransformed in the future.
>>
>>13549198
sorry neposter, eventually you'll have to accept that Drive is over
>>
>>13547852
Well I mean we all pretty much knew his name was Makoto already because of leaks, so I didn't have a problem with it. I do see that it'll be a problem for someone who watches it later on.
>>
>>13548532

But they didn't add it to Specter's lineup, which is a letdown.
>>
>>13549255
Maybe that means something happened to Edison after Alan borrowed it.
Or maybe they just haven't put it yet.
>>
>>13549270
Maybe Edison will be ded and Tesla will become the replacement.
>>
>>13549010
BEElly the Kid
>>
>>13549149
Why did Takeru take twenty days of his remaining life doing nothing?

How come Onari couldn't see the Ganma despite having an Eyecon?

Why didn't Makoto put two and two together and realize Takeru is Ghost?

The world will never know because writers are on crack.

>>13549176
The cowboy hat symbolizes the Bee Ganma's authoritative attitude. The Cowgirl Position is a sexual position in which the female is on top in contrast to the popular Missionary Position. Likewise, the Bee Ganma is on top of the humans she controls like a Queen Bee.

TL;DR: She wears the hat because she's literally making everyone her bitch.
>>
if they're childhood friends then why the fuck don't they recognize each other?
>>
>>13549460
Puberty.
>>
>>13549457
>How come Onari couldn't see the Ganma despite having an Eyecon?
They had hoodies
You haven't figured out hoodies have magic powers yet?
>>
>>13548351
How scarce were Hibiki's toys? I've never even seen one used.
>>
>>13547142
I want to fuck that bee woman.
>>
>>13548455
His helmet is supposed to look like the outline of a skull, but I think they made it too subtle because he just looks like 90's Spiderman instead.
>>
>>13547773
I noticed that, but what's really strange is that after he transforms, the yellow R logo on his suit is also blurred out.
>>
>>13549518
Yeah, but there were lots of Riders to make toys of.
>>
>>13547142
Why was she she spinning her salute hand when she first fought Ghost? What was she gesturing?
>>
>>13548813
I know, but still.

Or Deadpool.
>>
>>13549460
Makoto definitely recognizes Takeru. He recognized Akari, and also went to the Temple. He has his own goal, but he's also probably giving Takeru a hard time because he wants him to man up.
>>
>>13549512
>Ghost's final form is just him flicking the hoodie back on with no other changes.
>>
>>13549457
>Why did Takeru take twenty days of his remaining life doing nothing?
I think the conclusion we are supposed to draw is "they were doing things, but didn't find any leads".

I think the writers should have gone with a shorter deadline if they were going to rush it this hard anyway.
>>
>>13550636
They're trying to keep pace with real time, and I'm almost certain that the deadline is Sage playing Takeru like a spoopy fiddle.
>>
>>13550636
99 days probably was chosen because it'll be close to the real time point where this subplot will end, and these shows generally follow real time for ease of prop making and such.

The main issue is that rather than progressing basically in real time, we're getting some weeks where time barely passes between the episodes and then month long jumps afterwards.
>>
>>13549641
Except it's supposed to look like a Lightning Bug
>>
>>13548555
>>13548559
With how little she appears, this is probably her easiest paycheck yet.
>>
>>13549457
>Why did Takeru take twenty days of his remaining life doing nothing?

When they were making fun of his schedule, it wasn't just because they wanted to fuck with Takeru. There's literally nothing he can do to advance finding eyecons without a Ganma showing up first.
>>
We got the leather pants. But he has a negative ass.
>>
>>13551221
I miss Chase
>>
I doubt Takeru was just sitting around the entire time doing nothing, during the time in between episodes, he's probably doing cases that people bring to him, but they either ended up not leading to a Ganma, or if they did were like the Bee Lady this episode and didn't end up giving him an Eyecon.
>>
>>13550521
>Ghost starts charging his attacks by flicking his hoody up and down like Shinnosuke did with his wrist car thing.
>>
How come Takeru doesn't recognize Spectre is his friend that went missing 10 years ago?
>>
>>13551300
Cause he only remembers him looking like a kid?
>>
>>13551300

>Its appearance as a living sentient eyeball is similar to that of "Medama-oyaji", the reborn yokai form of the father of the lead character in Shigeru Mizuki's GeGeGe no Kitaro.

The Rider wiki's bizarre autism is still going strong, I see
>>
This show is really not drawing me in at all and this episode was probably the worst of the handful thus far.

I hope it pulls back up, it really has promise.
>>
>>13551479
Really? If anything I thought this was one of the better ones outside of them forgetting holding Eyecons means they can see Ganma. We had development, Onari and Akari had good scenes, things were getting slightly explained and setting the stage for newer things, the fights were alright, and Billy the Kid is a neat form.
>>
>>13551479
Each their own I guess. I'm loving it.
>>
>>13547844

He wasn't really a hero but a lot of Billy's reputation as a criminal was exaggerated.
>>
Why are the Ganma designs so baaaaaad. Why was Billy the Kid not even related to the story? Why is Ghost quickly becoming Wizard 2.0?

The action is actually worse than Wizard too. Although I guess Onari is really quite likable, especially compared to Shunpei.
>>
>>13551786
Why does this show have no cute girls? Why did Ghost attack a flying monster with Musashi instead of Robin Hood or Newton? Why doesn't he just always use Newton, gravity control is his most powerful attack?
>>
>>13551837
>no cute girls?
Yurusen would wanna talk to you.
>>
>>13551837
>Why does this show have no cute girls?
Akaris pretty bland at the best of times, but I have no idea why they make her dress so ugly as well
>>
>>13551852
No way, the talking sister Eyecon is way more waifu!
>>
>>13551786

You know what? The CGI in the movie promo at the end of this episode actually didn't look like complete shit. That massive DaVinci monster... thing, looks pretty awesome.

I think it's the same CG team that did the Machine Itasha in Akibaranger. They're pretty good.

Maybe it could work with anyone, but it still requires something of that person and being influential enough to someone's life that they revere them so strongly, so any figure of notoriety could make an eyecon.

Jeffrey Dahmer form when?
>>
>>13547844
They included fucking Robin Hood. What do you think?
>>
>>13547844
Why the fuck is everyone so upset about this? They never said it would be heroes, just memorable historic figures. Get your panties out of a twist.
>>
>>13552793
Then why are they called HEROIC EYECONS.
>>
>>13552939
Because it's the most common way to translate eiyuu, even if it's not entirely correct. It's also the word used to describe Fate/Stay Night's Servants and god knows that didn't exactly feature a cast of paragons.
>>
>>13548036
>>
>>13552971
To be fair, they only got villainous/anti-heroic Servants once they summoned Avenger in the third war and thus corrupting the grail.
>>
Ghost is getting better with each episode, but the characters are still pretty plain and story a bit scatter shot

Also the villains are so nothing after the Hemorrhoids were set up so well in Drive

Maybe it has to do with the person being someone's hero, not necessarily a true "hero".

So let me get this straight. After trying to make a Ganma Portal...

When it didn't quite work, Takeru's dad just quit
Then Makoto took a look inside of it
There was a great big flash, everything just changed
His molecules got all rearranged
