Grant, Drew and Kit transform into Camo, Torque and Dragon Knight and prepare to fight each other.
So this is where I say the premise of the show XDD the show's bout 13 people duking it out to the death to save earth now when I say duking it out to the death I mean they fight each other not all 13 of them vs the monster of the week *cough power rangers cough* the only cheesy parts are a few jokes made by a guy who's already dead and the kids that work in the store that you see maybe once or twice an episode. Now it's on The CW4Kids, but it's never been touched by it when it was being made. Originally supposed to air on Cartoon Network this show kicks butt and takes names. Right when you think that the two main guys are together and got everything good between them, dynamic duo and such, they're split up and are pinned against each other in combat. Another good thing is everyone that plays a teenager is a teenager no one plays younger or older really. This is no power rangers show but if you had to compare it to power rangers you'd have to say that Kamen Rider Dragon Knight is the Dark Knight to the Power Ranger's 1960's Batman television show. Give it a chance please. KRDK is owned by Adness Entertainment, Toei, Ishimori Pro, and CW4Kids
@auron21 I understand what you absolutely mean but then that is just a blatant excuse as to why they weren't there in Ryuki when they had around 50 worth to introduce them right away. They just rushed things up and failed to do justice with their presumed "numbers" and did all of the fanservice of RIDER VS RIDER stuff without thinking of how this would fit in.

@Archzenom The series itself is written a year before the specials are brought up and filming begins. So even by the time they got to creating the specials the ending of Ryuki is already in hand and ready to go. KRDK had no choice they bought the rights to the 3 extra riders and had to use them. Saban does not even do that for power rangers with the exception of 1 season, and he stated he would never use Toei specials ever again.

@Archzenom What you do not seem to understand is that KRDK has to use the 3 extra riders within their 40 episode season because they paid extra to use those 3. Secondly the writing and filming of the special's does not take place until the end of the original run of the show and filmed along side with the next season of Kamen Rider for Theatrical releases. Ryuki ended in January, the movies and specials were not released until August and September.

@auron21 I get your points but by putting them in "movies" and "specials" is just excusing them from failing to put those three in one flow which is not nice. Look at KRDK, it cuts it because it worked well with just 1 forty episode show and then these 13 were able to do what the Showa Era Kamen Riders have done.

@Archzenom My other point was Ryuki was created to only have 10 Riders, and with the success of the series two more riders were created for the Episode Finale special and from that they made 1 more Rider for the 13 Riders Special. Because Ryuki premiered years ago, KRDK could change certain things and include Riders from the movies...well actually they had to because they paid big bucks for the rights to Verde, Femme and one of the other riders.

@Archzenom Yes not all 13 were created to be used all at once within the same "timeline and universe" KRDK did have all 13 used within the same universe. My point and my point has always been there were 13 Kamen Riders within the continuity of Ryuki as a whole. It doesnt matter how they were used or how often or when...in total there were 13 Riders.

@auron21 Excuses! At full stop!
- They said that they were 13 in the show yet they were incomplete and neither of them said anything about the others. I mean, any of those present in the movie could've had a flashback or so as to who amongst those that didn't appear and how were they killed... But they didn't. :(
- They have all the story ready but then there is this "RESET" button as another one of the many excuses in order to present it that way yet still.. These excuse is not excused.

@Archzenom That does not matter that KRDK used all the riders within 40 episodes...that was the design and their story. It was not for Ryuki. 12 Riders were created for Ryuki, the 13th Rider was created for the special which takes place in an Alternate Universe. Verde had no purpose or use within the original story arc of the show just like KR Psyga and Orga had no place within the original story of KR 555.
