Hey guys, I thought of another idea that will be used for future kamen rider series but it should not be used for merchandising and it will be aimed for general audience both kids and adults and it will be both light hearted and dark toned much like Kamen rider W, and it will not interrupted by too much merchandising like the current heisei rider era series use.
It will be like Kamen rider W and drive except it’s both robot and cyborg partner themed just like the other tokusatsu series Denjin Zaborger, Robocop , Mobile Cop Jiban ,the cult cancelled series Almost human, And a bit of iron man.

You see it's about the protagonist who is a human detective who is trying to solve the mysterious conspiracy behind the disappearance and reappearance of people but with changed behavior similar like body snatcher.
As he discovered the whereabouts of the peoples disappearance ,It was revealed that some group of rogue robots based on any type of animals kill people and take their place just like body snatcher and stepford wives .
The protagonist attempted to stop this but a robot minion killed him through his heart and is about to take on his appearance, But fortunately another robot who looks like a typical mixture of both showa and heisei rider based on a insect betrays the group and takes the protagonist with him to the hidden location.
To save the protagonist's life the robot takes some of his parts and operates it on the protagonist wounded chest on his heart similar to iron man’s arc reactor and to make him leave again he turns himself into a belt and revive him .

And because of that the protagonist is now a cyborg thanks to the robot who is now his rider belt transforms into a rider based on his appearance.
Now the rider will use his cyborg powers to find the robots who disguise as humans to commit crimes and also wipe out humanity.
The series will have minimum episodes perhaps 16-20 like the current Ultraman series without any merchandise push ,collectibles and secondary riders.
The first half of the episodes will introduce a audience surrogate character a female rookie cop just like Akiko from Kamen rider W. She will partner with the protagonist and during the second act she was caught by a monster of the week who is about to take on her appearance and kill her but fortunately the protagonist saved her just in time and transforms into the rider in front of her eyes.
After the rider defeats the monster the female partner was amazed but the rider reminds her to keep it as a secret otherwise people will think he is one of the monsters as well and with that their partnership is formed.
The rest of the episodes will be stand alones while the monsters of the week some will be light hearted and some will be dark toned. The protagonist will have more allies something like drive and will becomes his supporting characters.

The final half of the episodes will be revelations and the final battle against the big bad . The belt robot will be revealed to be a honest robot created by a scientist who created by the antagonist the antagonist killed the scientist and manipulated his robots to be on his side to wipe humanity in his last sacrificial act the scientist give his consciousness to his favorite robot before the antagonist corrupts him.
Thus the robot regained his senses ,pretending to be on the antagonists side and was also the one who saved the protagonist to become the rider.
The rider will make a final confrontation with the big bad but he is powerful the robot in the belt decides to do a heroic sacrifice by powering him up giving him few minutes to live but is given the chance for the rider to defeat the big bad for good and save humanity and the world .
However as he de transforms the robot belt begins to lose his life due to his heroic sacrifice and though he will die at least his robot parts will always be with the protagonist to let him live before he turned off for real. The protagonist and his allies mourn his loss, However the final scene reveals that the robot allies data travels to the protagonist smartphone just to talk to him which hints that perhaps if a crossover is made maybe the rider with the help of his smartphone robot friend will have his data travel from his smartphone to belt whenever he likes and turn into a rider for a temporary time period when there are crossovers.

Also the series will not include movies like the heisei riders series .

So that’s my take on the future kamen rider series what do you think?

Practically speaking, I can see this as a re-imagining of a Showa-era Rider like Amazons, having an original story. That seems to be the only way to sell a Rider these days with no merchandise push, no collectibles and no secondary Riders. Well, even Amazons had more than one Rider.

That is true ,though i wished my idea should be aimed for general audience (both young and old).Even though the current kamen rider series is aimed for the younger demographic for collectibles,merchandise push and stuff.
