Ryuki vs. Faiz

[Gokaichanger]

OOO more like bOOOring.

Ryuki, hands down. Rider for Rider was damn interesting. Each intro of a new Rider was an eyebrow raise and I felt like each Rider *owned* their decks.

There were a couple fights to the finish and although it had an ending that undid everything... at least it got an ending.

Faiz... I never really felt Takumi *was* Faiz. When he suited up it almost felt like another show all together. Kaixa was the only one I felt *owned* his belt and *was* the guy inside it.

Delta was suppose to be a big deal, but I didn't feel like anyone became it and I can't even remember why it was suppose to be a big deal

I liked Faiz at the time because I was sooooo new to Japanese tv shows and Rider shows.. but now... I'm not sure how good it was. Especially with it's non-ending.

 

[MMPR]

Ryuki had a **** ending, "hey! let's reverse time and make the whole series never happen"...WTF. Faiz was just depressing, so many people died, *remembers Yuka* NOOOO!

 

[cypsiman2]

But Ryuki's ending didn't undo the series; in the new timeline Megumi is a member of the ORE journal staff, despite the fact that in the series she only joined as a side-effect of the Rider War, and much of the mystery behind Shirou and how he apparently died twice is due to how the events in previous timelines were bleeding into the new ones.

But even if the ending were a total reset button, I would still love it, because there's just no better way of showing how senseless and destructive and pointless the Rider War was than to show the world without Riders and the monsters created to fight them.

Yeah the ending pissed me off so much.

Also Kamen Rider Faiz, more like Kamen Rider hot potato! XD

 

[Keith Justice]

Neither had a good ending... no argument there. But Ryuki *had* an ending.

Ryuki to me was, well, yeah. To me it was overall boring as heck, I literally had to force myself to watch the episode will not falling asleep. With that being said, the concept of rider vs. rider is like how keith said, interesting, and i liked some of the stories, but that's just it, some. The only other couple of things I do like is ouja and odin moments, but that's about it. Most of the characters were lame, boring, and I never really cared if they died. Finally, the endings, I'll just say both endings from the show and the movie wanted me to rampage.

Now for Faiz, for the most part I really enjoyed it, the rider designs were cool, had an interesting plot to it, the orphenochs are some of my favorite rider monsters, and pretty much that. The characters I found were more interesting and will some where good, I hated some of them to. Like Masato, I loathed every second he had on the show, "I will be a rider because I will get Mari to love me!", "What's that, she not interested, yeah right, I freaking Masato Kusaka, I'll make here love he HAHAHAHAHAHA!" :redface2:

I'll just say one of my favorite moments of Faiz is when he gets his neck snapped, and my other favorite moments is him dying in the movie.

There are my thoughts, and sorry if I offend some people, I am trying not to these are just my personal opinions.

 

[Keith Justice]

Not even close to offending... well said, but I don't agree. The Riders in Ryuki ranged from brooding hero, optimistic her, PSYCHO SERIAL KILLER, and a lot of other interesting.

I feel that if Faiz wasn't labeled as a Kamen Rider show, I think it's fine. However, being under that label made it one of the least favorites. Although, I still enjoyed it.

Delta was a badass when Ryuuzaki (aka Zero from GARO:buttrock had the belt. After what's-his-name got it, I was like "Awwwww......"

And that ending..... Grrrrrr...........

I haven't seen a lot of Ryuki yet. Apparently, it had more than one ending?

 

[olataro]

Ryuki was great, why? Because its the first to feature true rider vs rider combat. ANd the settings feel awfully realistic. I agree that the battle scenes feels lacking but they are still better than most fourze scenes.

The plot is thick, and sad. The only thing i dont like is the lack of ending to the movie~! I wanted to know how the mirror world monster invasion came to an end!!
