Scenes that would have been better if you had not read spoilers? - SPOILERS

[Scissors]

It seems very common today that most fans of KR and SS will know all the forms and gimmicks of our heroes many episodes before they get them, as well as new villains, characters etc.
While it can sometimes be fun to speculate, I must say that there are times when I really regret that I read all the spoilers for a show.
When I started with Fourze, I decided for the first time not to get near any threads with spoilers or rumors, and it has actually made the show 10 times more enjoyable to me.
Not knowing what switch will come next, and not knowing what forms there are coming in the future makes it much more exciting, and it makes me want to see the next episode even more.

Now I start to feel bummed that I didn't do the same for other KR shows.
Sadly, Toei has also started to spoil us too much with their promos. Imagine if the promo for All Riders vs. Dai shocker had not featured the "All Rider march"
That scene would have been 10 times more epic if we had not seen it coming, but after having seen it in the promos, on pictures and in the Behind The Scenes video, it didn't really feel as special.
It was an awesome moment, but it was not an "OMG!" moment.

Do you guys remember any scenes from a toku show, where you wish that you hadn't read the spoilers?

- Philip's revival in Kamen Rider W final episode.
- Shiba Takeru's true identity in Shinkenger.

I'm kinda hope they make a surprise like Ankh Greeed's face and Basco's true form, no scans (although I heard there's a scan of Basco true form's siluet in a magazine) and not appearing in the preview.

Phillip's revival was certain.I knew he would be revived but didn't expect it to be in the final episode and thought they would save it for Movie War Core.

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant, the end of episode 48 is tear-jerking, and what I think at that time "Maybe W's plot for Movie War will be about Philip's return."

And some days before the final episode, someone post the scan about Philip revival in episode 49. :sweat:

The first thing I can think of is Apollo Geist's re-debut in Decade. I know that because I watched it without reading any spoilers, it was a pleasant surprise to me. And the same goes to BLACK's appearance at the end of the episode.

I know these shows didn't have rumor threads, but the old ones with the entrances and exits of the Commanders/Chiefs/whatev, unfortunately I spoiled myself beforehand which episodes it would be, but it was still awesome.
I always thought it was a bad idea to pretty much say in the title of the episode it's their last one: ''DOCTOR SHINIGAMI! THE TRUE FACE OF FEAR?''.

When I started with Fourze, I decided for the first time not to get near any threads with spoilers or rumors, and it has actually made the show 10 times more enjoyable to me.

You know what? I think I'll start doing this too.

 

[Goty]

- Shiba Takeru's true identity in Shinkenger.

Yeah, Kaoru showing up and transforming at the end of episode 44 was probably the biggest moment i wish i hadn't read anything about.

 

[Aoi Kurenai]

I had the ending for Flashman spoiled for me when I was about halfway into the series years ago. This being Sentai, I didn't expect the ending to be what it was, so it was one of the few times a spoiler has absolutely annoyed me.

 

[Red Ranger]

someone post the scan about Philip revival in episode 49. :sweat:

That was me. :coolshades:

I don't think spoilers ever hurt my enjoyment of something. It's the execution that matters. Well, unless the spoilers come in the form of blatant false advertisement, like all the focus that the "All Riders" scenes received in the promotion for Let's Go Kamen Riders, even though those scenes only lasted 2 minutes or so in the movie itself. If they had advertised the movie just as an original Rider, Den-O and OOO feature, I'd probably be happier with the cameos.

 

[Oblivion]

I tend to hate spoilers. I agree about the rider march in the movie would had been an "OMG!" moment if they didn't spoiled us on it though. I never go to spoiler threads for any show so far. Except one, but I kinda forgot which it was. Maybe Kabuto or Den-O.

I think that debut of the second rider would probably be much more awesome without any spoilers.
