Accel: a Kamen Rider Milestone

Oh yea, that's right. Some of them even have spoke type wheeling, kinda like the 'T' in Trail. Oh wait, let me get that right, Trial.

look, I'm not trying to be an enforcer, but this pic:

Clearly says Trial

Accel/Ryu looks fine so far..........he hasn't gone down the path of Nago and Tsurugi of a "hard-boiled Rider" turned goofy. But he also hasn't gone down the path of a complete douche like Kusaka, so I can live with this guy for now........as long as he doesn't end up like Tsurugi or Nago later on

I don't know about Tsurugi, but Keisuke was a victim of circumstances. plot wise, his short derailing was because of an unfortunate injury

Why thank you for that. Without it, I wouldn't have known where to right my wrongs.

Ryu is a badass.

I made this thread as a celebration and collection of thoughts FYI

I guess my main thought here is that the bike was really the point of Kamen Rider to begin with. Has it been so long since the bikes mattered that Accel's bike theme looks fresh?

He's a fine character and all, but the impression I got with him was the creators going, "Didn't Kamen Rider used to be about bikes? If we've got to have a second Rider, let's make sure he's about bikes."

This is not to say you're a crap dude for making the thread or Accel is a bad character. It's just, for me this is like clicking on a thread and seeing someone declare Kamen Rider Knight the first bat-themed superhero.

Dude, chillax. We're just kidding around. If you're going to act all high and mighty and get offended because your favorite rider is being made fun of, then don't make a thread. It's a JOKE. American JOOOOOKE. (guess where I got this from)

So yeah...chill.

Thank you for favoring my intentions. Not all glass is transparent though.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind if he died later on in the series. Taking out Weather with him. Would make for a good plot point.

i can still see accel killing someone with a W memory.. despite his "ill play by your rules hidari" claim.

then discover it wasnt weather but some other word starting with W. :disappoin

I'm not offended, but I don't find every joke funny, either.

@Lynxara: bike's have always been an important part of Kamen Rider, but Accel is the first to have it as a motif, to be completely and only themed around a motorcycle. it's unexpected, yet pleasing and intrigueing, and just worth mentioning.

well, there are plot twists, and then there are plot twists that go too far
