I don't mind if they can use Kamen Rider Faiz (555) in Adaptation in US, it doesn't matter which seasons.

Been a long time since we've had a non-PR toku show in the US. Lots of the times they're either canceled due to poor toy sales, lack of remaining footage, or panned by critics for being "knockoffs" of an already established franchise. If it does indeed happen, I'll be interested to see what story they'll adapt or devise from scratch. Maybe Stephen could get the Wang Brothers to come back and produce another Kamen Rider series again. Or some former Power Rangers writers (i.e. Doug Sloan, Jackie Marchand) that have a track record to producing top quality seasons. Maybe I'm jumping ahead but it's something to think about though.

I always thought that the Showa era of Kamen Rider was like the Zordon-era of Power Rangers where it felt like it was a continuous story. Kuuga and Agito were like connected because of the Grongis, but had different stories and mythos. Ryuki-Kiva were like their own self-contained stories, while at the same time, they actually felt like DC's New 52 before the New 52 relaunch even existed. Decade was like a clusterf@#$ of an anniversary series. W was like the DC Rebirth line-up of Kamen Rider before that was an actual thing in DC comics. OOO and Fourze were their own things. But, what connected those two shows with W were the fact that Foundation X was now an established universal threat and not just a Kamen Rider W-exclusive villain group. Hence why many other fans would love to see these guys make a comeback in future Kamen Rider team-up movies instead of Toei relying on Shocker as the main threat in every other Kamen Rider movie AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!!! Wizard, Gaim and Drive were their own things. Ghost was like . Ex-Aid was secretly an anniversary series done right. Except for Chou Super Hero Taisen because that movie was garbage. Build is basically it's own thing until the finale. Zi-O was Kamen Rider Decade and Shuriken Sentai Ninninger Part II. But done worse. Zero-One was controversial but it still felt like it was self-contained. Didn't see Saber and Revice. So, I don't know a damn thing about their stories. So yeah, it depends on which Kamen Rider series does feel more like a standalone story. Showa was some continuing story, but several series are their own thing, since V3. Sometimes old Riders appeared to help....and later they gone, and the MC is the one who finish the series. ZI-O was'n good, but miles better than Decade. Decade it's just the main character. The series is plotless and awful. Really? we have something in common.....

The series is plotless and awful. Believe me, neither Zi-O or Decade were that good TV shows from the beginning. The only notable difference is that Tsukasa Kadoya ended up being a much more likeable protagonist because he's played by an actor who can't stand taking so much bull$%# from people who keeps bringing up Kamen Rider Decade and how it almost ruined their franchise or whatever. Hence why Kadoya had this "who gives a s@#$ about what people think?" attitude in "Kamen Rider Taisen" because that was a response to the actor dealing with all the crap from stupid people being mad over a damn kids' show in 2009. Now in Zi-O, well obviously, Kadoya has proven to be a far better Kamen Rider Zi-O than Mr. 🎶"Oh, I just can't wait to be king!"🎶 (Sougo Tokiwa) was in his own show. But, at least we can tell that Toshiki Inoue has his own fair share of good and bad writing skills. But the guy who was the head-writer for Ninninger, Kyuuranger, and Kamen Rider Zi-O?! I wouldn't bother spitting in his direction. I rather stand 500 yards away from him and his work.

Oh, I don't disagree about Tsukasa being a better main character. I don't know if it was actor decision to be like that in Taisen movies or not, I don't care. He took the flack? I don't care either. It's sad. But the series is awful. Period. I'm not justifying the attack on the actor, but sincerely, I don't gonna praise the series either. The character? Great. But you have to do something with that main character. Decade as a series is terrible. And directionless. Mostly that. The homages? They barely have some of the old actors to reprise something. Just Blade for a cameo, Kiva, like some "angel" figure (why? Really, why? Why to bother?). The only two great episodes of Decade are (in a very short season) Kotaro Minami guy. He was awesome (I don't care if he's bitter now, he was great in those two episodes) as Black and Black RX. The cast, the secondaries (Kuuga guy was trying, I believe him, he tried), the villians (bah, Narutaki is a meme, nothing more) are worthless, the themes are stupid. The only saving grace is the crossover with Shinkenger, but it's nothing important to the plot.... Zi-O at least had better episodes writen by Nobuhiro Mori, who wrote the OOO Resurrection movie (which is good, actually). And Inoue wrote episodes of Zi-O, which are the Kiva homage ones. So, it's that.

Oh, well...that explained why the Kiva tribute episodes in Zi-O kind of suck in my opinion. But yeah. I mean, the best episodes of Kamen Rider Zi-O that I personally enjoyed watching were the OOO tribute episodes, the Gaim tribute episodes, the Ghost/Decade episodes were okay. I enjoyed the Blade tribute episodes until I realized that they were a big middle finger to Blade's TV ending where Kenzaki's story arc had a seriously dark finale by magically undoing his and Hajime's undead abilities. Just so they can live normal lives as humans or whatever. Seriously, f@#$ that "Happily Ever After" bulls#$%. The Agito tribute episodes were good as were the Hibiki tribute episodes. Not so sure about the Kamen Rider Shinobi and Quiz episodes. But the Fourze/Faiz episodes really confused me. I couldn't even tell who was getting the tribute treatment in those two episodes. Fourze or Faiz?
If we do have friends or knows someone who wants to get into Kamen Rider, I wouldn't recommend watching either Decade or Zi-O. I'd say show them Kuuga, Ryuki, Faiz: Paradise Lost, OOO, Gaim and Zero-One. Build is up to debate.

Still, I agree with your recommendations. And, sure I can't recomend ZI-O to anybody, but I think it's better than Decade still.... I disagree with the Blade episodes in ZI-O: I like they gave some kind of happy ending after years. It was lazy? Sure, probably they should do some kind of special or miniseries, a la ZI-O Time: Ryuki, with more cast members. I think the ending was OK to me. Finally Hajime is out of the burden of the Undead, and now can at least, rest. It's a matter of perspective. Ryuki mini is also a midle finger to the series, but let's be real, the ending of Ryuki is dogs%$t. Really, giving the middle finger to Ryuki, at least in the concept of the ending, is the best thing ZI-O gave us.... The Hibiki episodes are bitterswet: I ws expecting the main actor returns and bury the hatchet with his feud with the producers, but it didn't happen. Still, I'm surprised they basically gave everything to make the most unlikeable Rider of the history, Kiriya, which is probably the worse character of the history, into something you can like. So, a faint praise.

Kamen Rider Gaim will be awesome for season in America, become Kamen Rider Samurai Warrior!!!, good name for title.

Good name for a title. I think Zi-O would only for an adaptation in the U.S., if they were going for an anniversary series. But, if it's meant to take the past Heisei era Kamen Riders and turning them into A.R. versions of the original characters (a la REVERSE-KAMEN RIDER DECADE!!!) Then, they're going to have to explain in adaptation as to why nobody has ever heard of these other Kamen Rider fellows, except for Dragon Knight. Especially for people who live in the U.S. and are only familiar with the original Kamen Rider 1971 TV series, Kuuga, Ryuki and Zero-One because of Shout! Factory, the Pluto TV and Tubi TV streaming apps.
