Geats is the modern Kabuto. A great starter series, though not necessarily considered the best, it's dang solid. I'm eager to hear your thoughts on Build.
kabuto despite all its flaws (esp. towards the end) was still a really fun show for me and i gotta agree, it was my first and it definitely felt like it sorta set my expectations for the franchise as a whole
I beg to disagree, Tendou doesn't Gaslight Kagami as much as Ace does to Keiwa and the whole show making fun of his naivety and heroic nature, even though he's the one guy doing the right thing. Hardly a similarity is present between the two.
@@danielgeronimo5538 honestly, Ace constantly “outfoxing” Keiwa kinda pissed me off at times 😂😂. It basically gave Keiwa every reason to crash out I’m surprised he didn’t do it sooner😂
@@Pixelated_OwlMy main criticism in this season basically. Also Ace not getting any sort of consequences for his actions. The core difference between Tendou and Ace is Tendou's actions has an effect while Ace somehow is the right one when it's not.
It wasn't Keiwa's actor fault, it was THE WRITERS!!!! THEY MADE HIM SO DIRTY SPECIALLY AT THE END!!! Keiwa had the most potential but the writers didn't use him well, I think I said the same in your precious video? Watch Kabuto and you will see a Better Ace-Keiwa dynamic with Tendou-Kagami. Geats is a good show, nice for a starter, but when you start watching more, very little people have it in first place maybe some in 3 or 5. Or in my case not even reaching top 10. _(unless it was your first Kamen Rider, most people grow an special attachment to their first)_ But I think is a me thing having watched too many Battle Royale anime before, they always go the same and found Getas predictable in a bad way, you can be predictable in a good way, but Geats? Eh... I guess it was unique for Kamen Rider? But I don't see the amusement beside the visual delight, Because Of Course I Agree on the suits and the action being Fantastic, I want *Bunjin Sword* and *Geats MarkIX* figure so effing bad!! But I commonly look at more and Geats had various things that irk me the wrong way. BUT, don't get me wrong, I may think is overrated, but I still think is a very fun show to watch! #KeiwaDeservedBetter
@@sofialu226 yeah, cause I liked Keiwa’s character! But the way they handled his arc just seemed sloppy…he ended up being towards the bottom of my liked characters for this season. Definitely had the weakest arc of the main rider cast. I don’t mean to shit on the actor cause like I said, I don’t think it was a terrible performance, just a weird way to take his narrative.
@@Pixelated_Owl Even by the End Keiwa is still MAH BOY, cause the true villains were the writers!! The IDEA for his character was SO good... 😭 But oh well, I may have been left with a Non-Stasfying ending for his character, but at least I got an awesome suit I will someday get a figure of... Bujin Sword is simply something else 🙏✨
@@Pixelated_Owlactually the writer want Keiwa to be final boss but Toei think that way to dark(bc it aim for children and family will angry) so Toei made writer start again😢
I started with build. That one imo is also a great starter for people who get into kr. So far I’ve watched build,foruze,geats,zero-one,gaim, and am keeping up with gavv. Tokusatsu has given my wallet a new reason to hate me
@@ronny5622 I liked Punkjacks character. I think he was played really well and had a nice turn around to help our main cast. Kinda served as a chaotic positive character lol
@@Pixelated_Owl But if u notice he technically is the most important character in the show ( i believe you have watched the prequel episode which focuses on punkjack and gives his backstory)
geats was my first kamen rider season as well! i didn’t like it much lol but i also didn’t care about the toys/forms until much later in my time as a fan
Started with Blade as my first proper season. So, quite an oldie fan if I do say so myself. What can I say about Geats? It's not bad, and if solid Tokusatsu action is what you're looking for, it's definitely okay. Though evidently my personal criticism of the season is conflicting with me being able to brand it as a starter season mostly because it kinda misses the point of what being a Kamen Rider is. And though that definition is subjective and always changing, I will always think that fighting for peace, and justice is what the series is all about.
@@anso3886 you know…this makes a lot of sense😂. Cause they already had to make suits for all the different combinations and I never realized until now that Keiwa never actually used Magnum or zombie. Same with Neon.
Buffa arc is a wasted potential,like the scene where he asked geats what's the difference between him and why he can't win, biggest issue with him is that he literally try to solve all of his problem by beating it up or use violence every single chance he gets and ,he is dumber than keiwa. Like a zombie virus,his character arc infect keiwa too they forced him to go through the same arc as buffa, people who lost someone precious to them and take them walk through the path of revenge.
@@Blazeroad12 I can see why you’d say this. But I think because of the way Keiwa’s arc ended, it caused me to just enjoy Buffa’s character and journey a lot more
@@Pixelated_Owl biggest issue i have with Buffa (my favorite character next to Win/Punkjack) is the arc about his friend goes nowhere, they end it via the Jyamato fake and he just accepts "youre not him, he already died" and thats it, the actual people involved (who he see as a elephant rider and someone else) means and does nothing besides plot set piece and it sucks, everything else about him remains strong, his character arc with Beroba is especially under appreciated, esp when you see its about a man being used and persuaded for anothers greedy sinister gain and he deserves to be free from that for his own needs and gain, it was solid storytelling underminded by the rest of the show at this point being bit too predictable and losing its drive like the first 20 eps
@@MonsterZeroLITE I can 100% get behind this. I’ve been rewatching Geats recently and honestly I’m appreciating Buffa a whole lot more this go around. I never thought about his friend plot point going no where until now but you’re right 😂. They did kinda squash that so easily and with no real payoff.
@@Pixelated_Owl youll really like the Jyamato Awaking movie as it focuses on Buffa *a lot* and where his character goes, its a movie that honestly doesnt *need* to exist but for what it is, was still very enjoyable with its highlights and Michi stole it, do make sure to watch Geats Extra: Gazer first tho as its the prequal (and they fix Gazer a lot by ACTUALLY exploring his character unlike the show)
yea if anyone is the definition of wasted, its Keiwa, and i struggle to understand why he has such a loud & strong following cult fanbase, i still like him but as a overall character hes just "decently ok" and easily the weakest of the main 4 (or 5 with PunkJack, who was much more intriguing despite disappearing for 25 eps) it doesnt help that even post-series into the movies Keiwa gets no focus or anything, its mainly about other chars, Ace, and Michi, Neon at least is a whole entire complete character, shes not my favorite but def one of the highlights of the season
@@MonsterZeroLITE yeah that’s what I’ve come to the consensus on. I still like his character a lot, all the way up until a little bit past his BujinSword acquirement. Then it just gets sloppy.
@@Pixelated_Owl its a shame cause conceptually its neat with the whole "monkey paw affect" but like damn its so rushed lmao, then they bring back Da-Paan as just a set piece to remind him "hey remember this nihilistic jackass? you kinda similar now" instead of, idk make him develop via Michi or Ace right there? and i guess they did but it just wasnt fleshed out enough, and i ESPECIALLY hate that in the finale, when hes normal again, he feels like classic Keiwa was back in the very beginning, hes not a changed or different *person* like everyone else is, idk what the writers were doing but he really hit a hard, unfortunate stalemate
Because that's what the writers want you to see Keiwa as. Unimportant, the loser, someone who doesn't understand things the way Ace does, even though he's the one doing Kamen Rider things from the very beginning. Everybody likes Keiwa because he's the hero from the start. Ace is the overglazed one
@@danielgeronimo5538 you know I’ve never thought about it this way. Keiwa really was the only one out here actually trying to help people out of no personal benefit of himself, even his wish wouldn’t selfishly help himself.
@@Pixelated_OwlThat's why some audience, like myself love him. He's the hero from the get go, from the very beginning he wanted to help people, and even puts himself in harm's way if it means others can get the chance. His Bujin phase is simply the result of a kind man pushed too far. And this is a recurring thing in the franchise. Yet despite all that, Keiwa is the one pointed out as the wrong one by the season, the guy who doesn't get it, even though he got screwed over by Ace multiple times.
I agree that Geats is one of the best "starter" KR seasons. Great action, tight story and really interesting characters.
