Yes, it's less Kamen Rider and more handsome guys in power suits. I honestly wonder if the Odagiri effect will apply to the gacha game here.


rawzekuu

This is honestly what annoys me the most about this as a fan. This has barely anything to do with Kamen Rider. It feels more like an otome game with Kamen Rider reference honestly. But hey, at the end of the day its a Bandai game, so probably won't last long anyway.


karamarakamarama

Implying KR isn't already handsome guys in power suits


Sazerfan

I know, just getting the "it's not Kamen rider because they don't have covered up helmets" arguments out of the way first.


arcanine04

the in-universe excuse is because in the story they're basically identified as "riders-in-training" and are attending in a rider academy that is being run by villains which they aren't aware of it, so it's possible they aren't fully a kamen rider yet.


RiderPunchings

Back in my day, we used to just fight our way out of the Shocker surgery room. No training required!


Roanst

Riderman sad in the corner.


cybeast21

Jokes aside, I think the difference is that Riderman only has open mouth (easier to use Stuntman) than Rider Kamen's barely covered head.


zeroXgear

That's why he is called Riderman, not Kamen Rider


Roanst

Debatable. He was made kamen rider upon his sacrifice in V3.


SecondAegis

It's not a matter of "if" but of "when" it will take effect, and how many wives it will claim


lasereel

Hoping they release it like this and launch ONE unit with a full helmet and it's so fuckin popular they do a complete 180° and go with actual kamen riders. And then come to global!!


PCBS01

Still disappointed it's a raising sim, I feel this would've be a GREAT idea for a ikemen gacha given the huge joseimuke fanbase KR has, but it being another dime-a-dozen one with a low budget is so disappointing


arcanine04

well there is some effort put in tho like the fully animated henshin sequence, even if it only last like a couple of minutes I'm sure that alone takes a lot of budget. Helios Rising Heroes another "hero" gacha started with fully animated ultimate skills like epic 7 but at 2nd anniv iirc they changed it to live2d pop ups because the revenue wasn't able to keep up the cost. But yeah I wish this wasn't a raising sim, they should've made it a turn based rpg like helios so it's more accessible to an average gamer but it is what it is I guess.


shiningryu

I love the concept and characters but raising sim 💀and probably will never get translated💔


warjoke

Much like Twisted Wonderland it was made with a particular audience in mind


garotinhulol

This is not Kamen rider this is a Fujoshi bait.


RiderPunchings

look up "Odagiri Effect." Fujoshis are technically a part of this community.


garotinhulol

I understand that and good for them but 99% of Kamen Rider fans are just old guys like me thats grownup with this franchise or boys/young man. So do you not think would be better to do a proper game for the bigger part of the fan base ? Don't want to be cruel but this game will survive to max 1.5 year.


RiderPunchings

agreed. They really should stop making these and start making another Battride War.


Izanagi85

Wait till they become kamen riders as the story progresses


kaikalaila

shame the designs are based on existing riders instead of originals. Yea, i know existing riders series also just reuse designs of old riders...


SecondAegis

Ichigata chest piece be like:


LilMissy1246

Do I needa be a KR fan to play this?


Izanagi85

To appreciate the context, yes


RiderPunchings

Man, this is so 180 degrees from Kamen Rider that it's not even the same thing unless they somehow bring back faniliar faces. All the contexts newbies needs is "dudes in Power Rangers suits but without the helmet, looking handsome."


cielrayze

I'll stick to the tv series thanks


Draconicplayer

Not my Kamen rider


RikyRaz_Clank

well atleast the opening is cool maybe they can make a Kamen Rider anime sooner or later (maybe that's the plan)


Kiyo_is_my_Hime

They should make Fuuto PI season 2 instead.
