Samurai Level – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Episode 7 Review

The amount of lies, viruses and Gashats increase! Our resident Bike gets more focus this week, timed with the release of a new toy that is for him funnily enough. Kiriya, our smooth talking coroner gets himself involved with the patient of the week, an older man with a worrying daughter that works for him. Since Kiriya is an untrustworthy dick, he gets shut out of CR, but finds his way in just as all hell breaks loose as two viruses living in the man burst out to attack. How lucky that both of these new viruses have…

Hit the Beat! – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid episode 6 review

Rider series tend to focus more on relationships than its Sentai brother does. Not just Romantic ones, but also interpersonal and friendships. With this episode we dive pretty far into what connects our Riders, that we all love. The majority of the episode was between Hiro and the big bad, Graphite (as well as Taiga to a lesser degree). Flashing back to 5 years ago, turns out Hiro had a Girlfriend that he was a bit of a dick to, thing is she was infected with the Bugster Virus but won’t tell the Younger…

The Third Level – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid episode 5 Review

Think Pepopi-positively people! I know I have been, though it hasn’t helped my Rusty Knees… Now, four Gashats are missing, and the Riders are put on the case… good thing Emu had come across the dude the Genm CEO fingered as the thief suffering from Bugster Infection. Convenient isn’t it? Natuarally, the guy runs after Brave and Asuna arrive on the scene, though they quickly run into a Robot Bugster with the Gekitotsu Robots Gashat embeded in its’ skull. Too bad Kamen Rider Genm appears, kicks it to Level 3 and kicks…

Excite Bike – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Episode 4 Review

Playing with the review format exploded in my face something fierce, so back to the more recap style. Emu starts up bummed that he lost the Mighty Action X Gashat, but he can’t dwell on that for long as Coroner, Kujou Kiriya that also knows about Emu being Ex-Aid and having lost his Gashat, enlists him to help his Bugster infected friend. The Gemn CEO drops by CR to dump some exposition about how Gashats and the game they are based on are different, along with how only one of each Gashat…

Getting Guud – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Episode 3 Review

The roster keeps growing as we add another Doctor Rider to the game, but this one has zero shits to give. The ball gets rolling as Dr. Emu (ka Ex-Aid) is having to deal with yet another difficult kid, this one being scared of Doctors. He predictably runs off, and succumbs to the Bugster virus within him due to the stress of being around Emu.  That’s when disgraced Doctor Taiga enters the game, first confronted by Graphite and his human buddy, then the Virus as Kamen Rider Snipe Lvl. 1. Snipe…

A New Challenger! – Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Episode 02 Review

Let’s Level up… eventually, as we learned today with that funky looking Gamer. We got our fist real look at the OP, and the Song is a little too “Japanese Boy Band-y” for me, but the visual’s are pretty good. DDR lady aka Asuna, turns out is a assistant there to help out her assigned Kamen Rider (as garish as she dresses in her true form), as we learned from the new rider in town. Hiro Kagami (sorry, KAAAGAAAMIIIII), hot shot surgeon and the son of the hospital’s director. He also bears…
