So recently I finished watching this series. It was alright but i think it could have some improvements. My biggest problem was the characters, most of them were alright the only characters I had a big problem with was Medic and Go. Medic just seemed unnecessary to the plot at first and just looked like she was there just so the last few episodes would make sense, really I didn't have a problem with her near the end but really i would have preferred it if she was introduced later on. Go on the other hand I really couldn't stand, he just seemed like a really annoying show-off and even though he became more tolerable near the end I still didn't like his character. At the end of the final episode Go was seen walking off, in his possession was signal chaser a signal bike that was meant to be with the other shift cars and signal bikes being locked up underground. Even though he took them out of respect for Chase he still really shouldn't have done as it makes him feel like an even worse character as he refused to follow simple instructions. Personally I think Kiriko would have made a better Kamen rider mach, as she is a likable character and the Banno twist would have still worked. A thing I didn't understand about the finale was the fact that the Special Investigations Division shut down after Heart's death, sure it has finished it's current goal but surely it would have has some sort of use in the future. After the final episode it had a special bonus episode where everybody seemed out of character I got bored after the first 8 minutes and I stopped watching, something which I have never done with an episode of any kamen rider series so if anybody reading has not seen this episode I recommend you don't. I am not joking when I say it is the worst episode in kamen rider history (that I have seen so far). A minor complaint I have about this series is that there are very few songs that aren't vocals not that I have a problem with that but it means there is one particular track they repeat multiple times which gets annoying after a while especially since the previous series had lots of tracks. Another complaint I have about the music is that certain 3-5 second audio clips will play multiple times for no reason. The theme tune for this show is actually pretty good, even better if you listen to the full version. I wish some of the minor characters in the show were developed more as each minor character only got about one or two episodes of development. It's a shame as a lot of the minor characters are very interesting. I love the theme of the series, it might seem like just cars but they mix in science and technology as a theme which makes the theme of the movie make sense.
Overall I would give this series a 7, would watch again.
