Kamen Rider Sol Negro

From the fake crying of the lead actress, to the cringe and clichè scenes, Kamen Rider Black Sun could have been so much more.

I watched the original version when I was a kid, and this improved a lot from that, with the gore and dismemberement in battles and other adult themes, but the fake motorcycle driving scenes, where you can clearly tell the actors are in front of a green screen are laughable, tu say the least.

Storytelling-wise, the plot is convoluting, changing timelines like someone changes clothes. Not only that, but allegiances change on a flip and by the end of the season, you have no idea who is from each side, and neither you can tell which their side was in the first place.

One of the characters is dumb. Like REALLY DUMB. Won't spoil who it is, but you will figure out in the first or second episode. That, along with Deus Ex Machina moments. Make this script a bit amateurish.

I really wanted to give this a 10 for the sake of nostalgy, but yet again, Japanese producers don't fully realize the potential of a properly adult themed Kamen Rider and keep writing dumb and bland characters and plotlines.
