Does Kamen Rider Den-O Rock or Suck

[GekiBlack]

Den-O was just meh for me

 

[Aoi Kurenai]

Den-O was...well, in plot, absolutely horrible, convoluted, Kobayashi seemed to make things up as she went along, and none of it really made sense at the end, and following Kabuto, it seemed to start that ridiculous "be happy we get anything" movement when people forget that Rider is capable of well crafted plots.

In terms of characters and the stories revolving around them? Den-O was definitely one of my favorites, it's middle of the road for me.

Den-O > Hibiki

Lies and slander. D:

I like all the Showa and Heisei series...i actually enjoyed watching Den-O and i love that silly Momotaros XP

It still rocks to this day. Loved the music, loved the cast, loved the storyline, but the characters could have made some improvements. But all of the Imagins are still cool.

When I first finished the series, I actually hated the show as much as Keith did........bashing it to Suckdom Hell.

But looking back and after watching the past few Den-O movies, Den-O doesn't quote/unquote SUCK for me.............but the show is still at the bottom of my list of preferred Kamen Rider series (and by bottom, I mean DEAD LAST).

But no, Den-O is not TOTAL SUCK........it has some good qualities for a series once you remove the fact that they exaggerated Ryotarou's "bad luck issues" to make him wimpier than he truly is and that the final villain is pathetic as **** (yes Kai, I'm looking at you........you whiny ass piece of crap).

 

[Mou...Mou...TAUROS!]

Kabuto was...well, in plot, absolutely horrible (what plot?), convoluted, Yonemura seemed to make things up as he went along (TheBee tattoo, Kageyama, Yaguruma, Hopper Zecters, Zect Meiser, Tsurugi, the Worms in general, the Natives, Kagami's dad) , and none of it really made sense at the end (here, wear this necklace, oh noes PunchHopper and Dark Kabuto r deadz, who cares?).

Fixed!

Kabuto as a concept promised too much and really didnt live up to it. The premise was good but character devt and basic storytelling wasnt.

Den-O outside the unfortunate removal of Hana's actor that they had to write around told good touching stories. It had a main rider who wasnt antagonistic or confrontational (a wuss wouldve refused the belt, he accepted it before evn knowing hed b possessed) was likeable and not simply because omg Tendou is God mode. Ryutaro had no reason to stay Den-O, he had no murdered parents to avenge or pregnancy-cloned sister to stalk but he chose to stay and put himself in harm's way.

What I like most about him though is that he is humble.

Admittedly Kai sucked. But personally:

Den-O > Kabuto + Faiz + Decade + Kiva

I liked it! It was actually the first Rider series I was able to complete ( well, not in terms of the endless amounts of movies, but you know what I mean. ) I can understand why people dislike it, though, and Kai acutally nearly ended up killing my like for it entirely, but I stuck through and mostly ended up enjoying it c:

I loved this series.I don't care what everyone else says about it.It had one of the best secondary riders and the main character really had lots of development.From the start of the series, Ryotaro was this wimpy little guy who couldn't do anything and by the finale, he could fight by himself without the Imagin helping him.Most of the time traveling stuff worked out pretty good with few plot holes.
The music was very good as well.All of the Double Actions, Action Zero, and the movie theme were pleasing to the ear.
