Does anyone remember SD Riders? The little animated special that had the Showa Riders and their opponents as chibis doing funny stuff yet not losing their backbone?

I was thinking... What if there was something like that for the Heisei Riders too? Especially now since it's the franchise's 40th anniversary. How do you think it would be like? What would be the plot? Which Riders would it be focused in?

The only Heisei Rider that actually went SD was...

...Den-O...not surprising actually. And they teamed up with Ultraman Taro...so that makes Den-O the only one to team with an Ultra.

(...and I hear Keith screaming in the wind):laugh:

Yes, but I was thinking of something less like Imagin Anime and more like SD Riders. With more fluid animation and actual fighting, and involving all the Riders, not just Den-O.

The closest thing was Shin-O...:laugh:

But yeah, overall, none of the Heisei went SD. As for being a legit anime, asides from the Ultras, Kikaider and Skullman, the only other toku that went anime for a bit was Abaranger, where they appeared on Tsuribaka Nisshi.

That's not really what I'm talking about. I know none of them went SD. But what if they did? What would the story be like?

Well...if you've seen the Hyper Battles and the Net Movies, you have a pretty good idea what they'd do.

Blade/Ryuki/Decade would have a poker tournament.
Hibiki and Faiz would start a band with Faiz as a lead singer.

...I could see Fourze being the main rider of the SD.

So if the role of Showa Riders replaced with Heisei Riders, it will be:
Ichigo -> Kuuga
ZX -> Decade
RX -> OOO

Now imagine Decade doing what ZX does in that anime:

"KAMEN RIDE: CHEERLEADER"

:laugh:

If Heisei SD does become real, would Den-O be Sword Form or Plat Form? I would actually not mind Den-O getting the SD spotlight if it's Plat Form on his own. Would make for better comedy due to Ryotaro's general klutziness and timidity.
