Watching Kamen Rider Kabuto and losing it

Why does Tendo soji's jacket say FUCK YOU on the back in a fancy english font

Fun fact: the toa mata (and by extension every Bionicle set prior to the toa metru) are just about in scale with the figurise standard Kamen riders.

The standard toa is 2.2m tall but because of pohatu's hunch he's a bit shorter at 2.04m tall. While Tendou in the Kabuto suit is canonically 1.90m tall.

Meaning this height difference between the toys is just about accurate to their actual height difference.

Basic plot synopses of Kabuto generally completely leave out Hiyori which is... very annoying but also kind of interesting. It reminds me a lot of the stuff @r4bbitdragon was saying about how the Kamen Rider-ness of Kabuto is not actually the most important part of Kabuto.

You can describe the basic plot of Kabuto, and even start getting into the general structure of the early - mid - late season plotlines, without mentioning Hiyori. She's not important to any of the other Riders besides Kagami, and they're just pals; she didn't play an essential role in him becoming Gatack or anything. She's not important to most of the prominent enemies.

But if you leave out Hiyori, Tendo becomes this great big nothing. "Walking the path of heaven" is nothing but a collection of catchphrases. His relationships with Kagami and Juka become a collection of surface-level tropes, with no real reason for him to be so devoted to protecting his family and closed off towards the rest of the world. Remove Hiyori, and the backstory that explains Hiyori and Kusakabe Soji and Tendo and how they're all related (...literally) to each other, and Tendo no longer has any personal motives or character arc beyond a suddenly much flimsier rivals-to-friends relationship with his secondary Rider. There's some thematic ties between the Hiyori & Dark Kabuto stuff and the Worm conflict, some of which I quite liked, but mostly the emotional heart of the show and the nominal plot of the show never quite feel like they're fully on the same wavelength.
