Kamen Rider 555...To Watch or Not To Watch?

[Skinwalker]

The fact I call it ZZZ should make my opinion pretty clear.

...That you have no taste?

<_<



Meh... There were only two main flaws I saw with Faiz.

Spoiler

Lack of development for Delta's character (so little so I couldn't even remember his name), and the final episode/ ending. Fortunately the other characters' development, the consistent quality up until the ending and an excellent movie made up for it.

 

[PsychoTherapist]

Yes, it's a good series. It has a few flaws in the plot & the ending is pretty botched up, but the movie kind of makes up for the ending problem.

The writers certainly like to use the art of the stall, as they will constantly string you along for many episodes before revealing something at times and with occasional usage of the good ol' reset button, which does lessen the dramatic impact a bit. Apart from that, the odd irritating character, such as Keitaro or Kaido, especially early on, but otherwise it's a good series.

I think the best thing about 555 is the character chemistry. hey all work really well together and you end up really caring for all the characters.

First toku I saw back when it was airing and still my favourite. Lesson here to learn is not to listen to your mates :thumbs:

 

[Raida|23]

Faiz is my favorite of them all.

@Ryoutaro: Why don't you just give her a detailed description of every episode that way she doesn't have to watch any of them? @_@ Spoiler tags much? Really it was a "should I watch yes or no" not a "KR Faiz series discussion" =P

He's a male

On [open your eyes for the next] Faiz: watch it. Not the best rider out there, some plotholes, the ending was...well, let's not talk of it. But the series as a whole it's not bad, the movie -Paradise Lost- kicks everything kickable, the monsters are nice IMO. You have action, you have drama. Really, go for it, dont be so stubborn on its lacks and enjoy it.

faizu...one of the best riders..im suprised no one mentioned smart brain!!!!!

i thought it was pretty rad especially rei from garo being one of the criminals *hes hot*
and who doesnt love the phone gimmick....?

[Dagger Lee]

I enjoyed it a lot, especially the movie that takes place in an alternate universe. The only downside for me would be the final episode that left some plot holes but the interesting characters and how Orphenochs are portrayed have a place in me.

i hated the final episode..i dont understand it!! :sweat: so sudden

 

[x1xBladex1x]

I think it was my brother's favorite Kamen Rider. I say skip it & go on to Blade!:buttrock: (Unless you've already watched it, then just do 555).

 

[Ridt_Henshin]

blade forever lol :buttrock:

 

[BLACK]

same here, i think Blade is better than Faiz. i got bored & almost fell asleep while watching some eps (around eps 10ish to 20ish), but the plot gets interesting after that. but then again, people have different preferences when it comes to rider series.

i rank Black as the best (hence my alias), Kabuto for 2nd place.
