Kamen Rider Sol Negro

I really like the plot and the new storytelling that makes everything seems realistic. But I completely hate the VFX or the graphics. I mean come on man that's my childhood. Right now i'm 26 now it's could be better on special effects and the suit of kaijin should be VFX at this moment.

But i still love it the toned of the series the set-up worth to watch guys. I mean i'm not kamen rider kind of guy but i still enjoy the series.

I gave this series 8/10 I deduct marks because of the kaijin still wearing the suit man we're grown up there should be better than this. I also love the gore so much brutality.

As an original black fan i feel really disappointed with this show, i know they tried to modernized the story which is alright for me, but the problem is the story is just too deviated from the original, even the main conflict and main focus is too different from the og, it's even better if it's introduced as different title rather than used kamen rider black as basis

secondly there's lot of wasted opportunity that they fail two show like the character bonding and the.lack of battle hopper.or the bike action in general

and the battle scene feels lack as well, they're gore and cool indeed but it just only last for several early and couple of last episode,, even the show barely have the iconic technique like rider punch and rider kick

lastly there's lot of plot hole that should be explained better, and the story itself feels liket hey're trying too hard to be dark and convoluted while in fact it's not really that deep if you paying attention

as for the positive side, the costume is actually cool and the action scene although it's not that much but it's "okay" for me.

The story of this series is quite complex, about the discrimination of the kaijin, creatures with mysterious origins, which here are not well received in society. On the other hand there is an organization called gorgom, which tries to solve this problem, but goes further and further, the truth about the kaijin and conspiracies about the gorgom organization, makes the dark story and core problem of this series more visible. Actually this series is good for me, The plot of the story is quite complex, so it's not only about discrimination, the origin of the raider's strength is also explained, and explained well, even though it still has plot holes. Conspiracies and topics of racism are well explored and conveyed, and delivered from the side of young and adult kotaro, although this series still has many questions. In terms of character, actor hidetoshi Nisijima plays the character of Kotaro Minami very well, with a cold, firm attitude, and looks authoritative. Understandably, the actor himself has won an Oscar for the film Drive My Car that he starred in, so he can portray the character of Kotaro very well, and is very suitable for him, even though his character is a little different from the original version. Not to forget actor Tomoya Nakamura as Nobuhiko, who once again played a very good role, in playing the character of Nobuhiko who was very cold, indifferent, but still authoritative, this time his character was made the same as the original version. And there is also the character Aoi Izumi, played by Kokoro Hirasawa, who here takes a very important role for the story in this series. His character is firm, intelligent, and strong, making him the best way in this series. But even so, there are still some actors, whose acting is a little stiff, but it's not a problem, because each character in this series has its own uniqueness and purpose. And one more thing that impressed me, is very very good instrument music, and describes the atmosphere that happened, with an interesting background and describes what is happening in the present, and in the past. And I, too, was surprised when the song O S T kamen raider black played at the end of the episode, which really made me nostalgic. Plus the ji ai from this series who is not canned, even equivalent to the holiwud series. From all the statements above, there are still some things that are lacking in this series. Among them are story plots that still have question marks, the origin of Kingstone is still not explained properly, the side of the high-ranking gorgom that has not been explored, how can Aoi have a belt, and honestly I don't like the ending, which is anticlimactic, and too rushed and almost non existent. Shock. Even though I hope a lot, so that the ending is epic and full of battles, even though this is the only sad ending episode of.

The direction could have been more polished, fight choreography is just passable, vfx could have been better. Good thing the story carried it. The atmosphere and theme of the darker showa and hessei kamen rider story line was well captured. How they reinvent black's story was also well respective of the original. Costume designs and creature designs also shines here. I love the suits, specially on the two riders. I also love how they handled the cryptic lore of the kaijins and the eventual explanation on the symbol of Black Sun. I do hope they manage to find a way to make an RX in the future, hopefully, with a better direction, fight choreography, and vfx. Still a solid watch, and highly recomended, even if you are not familiar with Kamen Riders.

Nice reboot first it was engaging and hooking as they have added some backstory and flashbacks that are polished unlike the original one (Japanese version).

The acting is a bit inconsistent some scenes are good some are Funny and not convincing.

Character Re-Design are ok but too dark on my taste.

Like the Mix of 3DFX and Movie props costume in some scene but 3DFX in some episodes is lacking and average.

Ending is a bummer guess nothing to expect on Season 2 related to the original protagonist. It's either they are planning to expand or connect this to the modern Kamen Rider universe i dunno.
