After watching Double with the great idea of having 2 people at once as one Kamen Rider, with 2 awesome color schemes and a great, great, great, great choice of outfits for both of them (ffs Shotaro... ffs), I must say I'm impressed quickly.
But the thing that came most to my attention is how they're promoting this series to be the beginning of a new decade ''The Next Decade'', and another thing I noticed is the new direction Heisei is taking... maybe it's because the 40th anniversary is close, or this is the way they want the next decade to be, who knows. What matters is, what they're doing here is bringing back the traditional stuff, what Kamen Rider has truly meant from the beginning, the real feeling it should have gotten in the past decade (well, Kuuga pulled it off), they have the classic style antennae back, they seem to pay more attention to motorcycles, that looks like a promising design, they make a nod to the Double Riders with Phillips's Cyclone, some of the kaijin looked like something they would have made in the 70's, and that isn't meant as offensive.
But the most important thing of them all... this is not only the 11th Heisei Rider, this is also the 11th Rider to have a... SCARF.
Yes, it's only a scarf, but imagine 1 and 2 without their scarves, it's definetely not them, and that was a time were the Kamen Riders were identified (among many things) by their scarves.
The recent movie and episodes of Decade have made me think they're finally realizing they've gone too far from Ishimori's original design, and now they want to bring it back to what it was, the Decade movie proves it, the Amazon and Black/RX episodes prove it. They can still give the old feeling while keeping it modern, and this is what they're going to do from now on.
This is what I expect not only from Double, but for the many Riders to follow in The Next Decade.
I really hope I'm not wrong on this, because Double are going to be a heavenly badass.

Well then again, it's just expectations, before Kiva aired I expected Wataru to be a vampire as awesome as Lestat of Lioncourt (if you don't know who he is, wiki it)

I usually have a hard time getting over excited on rumors and previews alone. So, while Double's previews interest me, I don't really have high exceptions for this series.
Kinda like Firestorm, or Gogeta/Gotenks. Lol.
