2016-2017 Kamen Rider: Ex-Aid trademarked

Let's be real.
For a series that supposedly spans over the course of 48 episodes or more, having only a single Rider makes the series boring as hell. I guarantee that you're in the minority here. You can only develop your characters so much in 48 episodes before you hit writer's blocks and end up shoving in pointless, blatant filler.

The older shows that stuck to one Rider are classics but they are not metrics. There are reasons they haven't gone back to that theme or formula since Kuuga.

Okay how about we cut to 25 episodes instead if the series needed a lone wolf cyborg theme heck it will save budget or it can be used as a online kamen rider spinoff series but aimed to older audience just like what toei with the help of amazon prime did with kamen rider amazons

We're getting Season 2 of Amazons next year, so while that's surprisingly not a bad idea coming from you, whatever little chance it has of happening is delayed.

Even so, Amazons only has 2 Riders and is only 13 episodes long but still has its stale moments and even an episode that is packed with filler.

I could see them making a less-gimmicky Rider for the older fans, similar to Amazons - be it a new Rider or reboot/remakes of older ones. (Now I'm curious how they would reboot Stronger!!)

Having a lone Rider would also leave a gap in the toy line that would have to be filled somehow - and trying to fill it with something new would be a risky move, since there hasn't been a single-Rider show in fifteen years. I know a lot of people don't think the toy sales are/should be important but, face facts, they are. That's where the money comes from to continue the franchise.

Amazons looks likely to end with Haruka as the only surviving Rider so you may well get your wish for a lone-Rider show next year anyway.

Hmmm you are right it's going to take a lot of time to make a good lone cyborg kamen rider series without any fillers and stale moments or how about we turn it into 12 episode miniseries without any fillers and junks just think it of as the kamen rider zo movie but split into different episodes and maybe air it as web series spinoff to the older audience just to know if the concept would work..

A less gimmicky rider ,that would work but we need to think something original and not make it as a copycat or rehash to the previous showa series or not to make it too gimmicky.

Well it might be risky but i am sure the lone rider (or lone cyborg rider concept) will work and to do that it needs to be 12 or 20 episodes just to be safe and besides since kuuga has form changes during the whole 49 episodes maybe the rider will have so many form changes like kuuga does and will include too many gadgets so that it will fill the gap in the toyline and will help to increase the toy sales i mean it works for kuuga .

as for what you said about Amazons maybe but since it will air season 2 next year i think it won't be a lone rider show it will be still 2 riders but maybe a new one to replace the deceased one or the old one who is revealed to be still alive and who knows maybe i hope the original amazon will make a cameo (not the actor since he retired and is too old)

You're living in an outdated business model. No way would it fly with todays kids and attention spans shortening.

There's a reason why Amazons in on Amazon and regular Kamen Rider is where it's at.

There's something for the kids and something for the older fans and teens. It's like Marvel making TV shows on Netflix that are more violent than the mainstream stuff.


Even Gaim with it's heavy themes had tons of Riders and forms.


These day's it's 50% Kamen Rider and 50% Sentai antics.

It's no longer a JDrama with scifi themes like Kuuga to Kabuto.

Oh my goodness. Just thinking what Gaim could have been if it was done up like Amazons. Chills man, the chills.

^if they knew there's already a planning to make an adult based kr series in this time, urobuchi should have been happier more than ever Lol..

Yeah that is true and this is the reason i think the lone cyborg concept with 12 episodes and with " JDrama with scifi " themes should be aired on amazon prime instead for older audience only ,But someday if this custom is good it will once again be used on television and be used in the main kamen rider series to be aimed to the targeted demographic children and family and air it on saturday evening.

Unlikely, Kam. Gold Samurai has explained that part well.
