Best Lead New Gen Rider

[Ladymercury]

32 and still going strong, even despite his messed up characterization in the later half.

32 is still young. :laugh:

32 is still young. :laugh:

When your other "leads" are between the ages of 18 - 24

.... 32 is pushing it.

Shouchi. He was goofy at times but always true. And I don't remember him angsting with out good reason. Unlike some people. Plus he was never a jerk.

I also liked Godai and Shinji. Still need to see the rest of Faiz, Blade, and Hibiki. I have no love for Takumi, he really sucks. Kenzaki I'm not sure about. Hibiki I have to wait and see.

While I voted for Takumi, I'm torn between him and Hibiki-san.

I actually voted Ryo. That fact that there is no "bad ass" in him but he still gets out there and fights is really admirable in my eyes. Plus, I love comedy, and Ryo makes me laugh pretty often. It doesn't hurt that he's 4 super sweet Riders wrapped up into one, either.

I also really like Tendou and Hibiki -- Kabuto and Hibiki were the 1st Rider series I started watching, so in some way they are the archtypes by which I judge all Riders past and present. I think they exemplify the two crucial "lead types"

On one hand, "the bad ass" and the other "the true hero" and they do both better than any, respectively.

1) Hibiki
2) Takumi
3) shinji

 

[Aoi Kurenai]

Hibiki without a doubt, Shoichi after that.

 

[Dogbot]

Hibiki. The others were assholes or too goofy.

However, I have yet to see much of Agito and Kuuga to judge those 2.
