7/10
Great at start to underwhelming finish
8 November 2022
Great at start, i love the approach that its for adult, (would love to watch more kamen riders if its made this way) but story progression towards the end kind of slowly kills the joy. Ending is a bit of a letdown. Felt very underwhelming.

Pros:
  • Episode 10 opening is awesome.


  • Overall design is undeniably cool, just wished that the eyes are permanently red (not glow)
  • Love the adult approach, just wish that theres nudity also instead of gore only. C'mon Japan, this is where you're good at.


  • Lots of fanservice to the old Black series.


  • Cool fights.


Cons:
  • Story.... isn't as good as i hoped for.


  • Character's ideals switching sometimes doesn't made sense.


  • There's a line equal of "with great power, comes with great responsibility" in terms of weight, but almost 10 times longer, and they made sure you're hearing this repeatedly until you remembered all of it. It's unnecessary and kind of cringe when hearing the 10th time.


  • Editing is kind of crap. I mean they can't even make the bike scenes look faster. They're like moving around 30 kmh.


But still happy they made this, despite all the cons.

Idk if theres going to be season 2 or not because it looks final enough for me, but if it somehow is, i'll still watch it.

7/10.
