KAMEN RIDER NA-GO: THE LIGHT SHINING IN DARKNESS

[@austinkuchar7125]

Not only is this man speaking facts on nagos story. I think she should have gotten another stronger buckle that’s an upgrade to her “final” form.

[@realcobwrestling]

Honestly that should have been her last buckle- the suit looked great but it NEEDED a bottom half!!

[@austinkuchar7125]

@@realcobwrestlingWhile I can agree if a new buckle would, have given the form pants basically then I’d be fine with that.

[@SpideyfanX]

She should've at least gotten a Boost Buckle for that Fantasy-Boost combo. The Desire Driver even had a soundbyte for that combo!

glad kamen rider helped facilitate a convo about some real life ish. I say it all the time to folks. "Trauma does not give you a green card to be a jackass."

[@DouglasStewart99]

There's truth in this statement and I really hear you. _However,_ *counter-argument:* It takes a lot of strength for a person to not give into despair, move past the pain they've experience/going through, and continue to do what's right when brought to their lowest or going through/have gone through some *truly hard* trauma. And not everyone can just pick themselves up on their own. If you _can_ do this, especially with the help of others, you really are a truly amazing person with a strong will that separates you from others. Here's the thing about that, *_not everyone is strong in that department._* Sure, if your just having some minor inconveniences in a day and you wanna crash out, you're pretty pathetic in that regard. But some people will genuinely fold pretty easily when things like grief, despair, loss, or trauma hit them in life and hits them *hard.* "Just suck it up.", "No excuse to do bad things", "Stop complaining.", "Don't lash out at others.", are all fair points. But all of these statements are still easier said than done. Heck, even I'd admit to myself, if I ever experienced something like Job's worst day from The Book of Job in the Bible in my life, called me a Gate from Wizard because I'd fold *immediately* and definitely become a Phantom on the spot from that.

[@skyrogue1977]

Given how Boost Mk9 is the strongest version of Boost, and Bujin is a Shogun which is a step above Ninja, how does Fantasy relate to Beat? I know it was her dad’s first, but it was obviously intended to go to her.

[@papibear011]

Because...she gonna live her true fantasy of the music of family and love ..maybe?

[@danielramsey6141]

Well think of it this Way! Fantasy was not her Power before! It was her Father’s Wish, and his desire to see her alive! That was his Fantasy, but as much as it was his wish and Fantasy to have his perfect little Angel back. Na-go wasn’t his real Daughter. He had to learn to accept that, and to Love her anyway. This goes for Na-go as well since she had fantasies herself. But truthfully, Her father passed his Best wishes onto her (as family should) as all he wants now is for her to survive and Live. Something she had to grow and accept, Turning Fantasy into her power.

[@hyperzed5256]

Naa-Go is best girl with good character progession. Even with the lack of forms, she puts up with her character arcs, especially with her final character arc.

[@Varisforce]

Facts ma brother!

[@cyberhero5559]

Nice video! Neon’s arc was definitely my favorite out of the four characters in Geats. I think her choosing to forgive her family after all the shit they put her through really shows how selfless she is. I also thought her relationships with Lapo, Sara, and Keiwa really did give her a sense of familial love that she lacked when she was younger. Neon and Rinne are my favorite female riders in this era.

[@joeyjjmoore]

Da Paan sucks and I was pissed when he came back. Naago is great though and she has amazing moments, I think my personal favorite is her beating the absolute breaks off of Beroba. Satisfying.

[@dractolis1592]

7:14 I see you're a fellow monster hunter

[@drsquirrel7276]

Honestly started out wasn't a fan but as her story evolved i was like what the hell shes goated, and holy her as fantasy had me going shes a freaking mini geats

[@theoverlordbear]

For when you put on the unc cap as well, Lambo. I mean, if you can't believe that someone can get up and fight on well after being so thoroughly humiliated, then it's usually because you DON'T believe it. Same goes for when you can't believe how villains work, because sympathetic or not, villains always think themselves the heroes even when they think that being the villain is all that they can be. And this talk happening in the middle of your gush about a female Kamen Rider makes this even better, especially because I've encountered a lot of guys going horribly right about hyping up talented and skilled women in real life, as in those fellow dudebros get those good ladies promoted for the wrong reasons. I mean, you ever encountered a genuinely talented and skilled and decent and even streaming Japanese entertainer lady being hyped up for reaching the top after starting from the bottom, all while her also streaming male colleagues who are as talented and skilled and decent as she is get treated like chopped liver at best and toxic waste at worst even and especially by their fellow men, and even more vocally by men from outside Japan, simply because they're men? And don't get me started on the ladies who dare to exploit that, especially with how more insidious they are compared to a lady like Beroba! So yeah, if I'm gonna need a fellow man to hype up these freaking badass ladies that even we dudes look up to, then I'd rather trust someone like you to do the job, Lambo. Also, to make up for the lack of Na-Go appreciation in the above vent, I'd like to say the following: 1) Boost Bonkmaster Na-Go is bae. 2) Na-Go made herself even more of a queen with her cute badassery at 7:29. 3) Neon Kurama is my favorite Pinocchio story. 4) Na-Go's slide at 13:53 is something I'd surrender to, and even more so with the Bonkmaster Rockstar work after that. 5) I think you can guess why already thanks to my vent earlier, but I get Neon wanting to be forgotten after finding out how she's a fabricated existence. 6) Call Na-Go vs Beroba a designated girl fight, but I've witnessed more than enough of ladies like Beroba making ladies like Na-Go sorely underrated in real life for me to complain about Na-Go being the one whupping Beroba's ass. 7) On Ace, I will not stand for Neon being considered one of the boys, not with how she rocks her femininity as well as she does. 8) Wait, Na-Go's a cat girl? The bigger badassery she pulled off got me forgetting, see.

18:31 can we talk about Na-go’s Intangibility powers real Quick! Cause think about it! Na-go is basically a Dream Child that her Father Came up with! And in the Last Story Arc, she was fine with feeling like a Ghost, or feeling invisible to people after finding out she’s not real. Some Existential Heavy shit there! But after she Saves her father, and he save her! And then her family Reconciliation of the past and acknowledging her and existence! And then Both Her Original Existence bonding for her to Gain that Sense of Self! She literally Has the “Schrödinger’s cat” effect going on with her powers! She’s bending her own Existence to her Will just to Finally Give Beroba that Ass Whooping she Had Coming for Three Arcs!

She’s pretty very well done character for being a 3rd rider

[@Terry.sd_Whittle]

Fantasy: her parents desire for their daughter's return to life, Neon's fantasy of escape through meeting a destined partner to love and protect her, to shepherd her away from harm i.e. the demands/strict control of her parents. Fantasy in the sense that she may have been created for another's purpose but her life is real and is her own. She acknowledges this after the hardship. Her dad's ID core recognising her as the owner is proof. The buckle name and abilities making it clear to enemies, fantasies may not be real, but they can do damage.

[@deandreushayes9836]

[@takeruneverborn4740]

Nago is one of the few female Kamen riders that remain strong from start to finish she followed Jeanne example to the letter also love her final form debut it was on par with Tycoon Bujin Sword

[@Dragonkid69]

I feel like the female riders always get played like Jeanne final form was introduce second to last Rinne final form same way and nago didn’t even get a cool duel buckle like buffa tycoon and geats But all in all nago is still our best main female rider next to Valkyrie

[@onyxryuga6372]

I had no idea Kurama was Naoto/Time Fire until you called him that, and I had to fact check. That is another sentai ranger I have seen become a Kamen Rider.

[@DouglasStewart99]

Right?! I literally just watched and finished TimeRanger for the 1st time about a month ago in late December of 2024 and I'm just finding out about this myself! Imagine, instead of begging/praying to Ace for a belt and ID core, bro heads to the location of where his daughter got kidnapped again, and when confronting Brali and Berob dude reveals the V-Commander under his left sleeve and yells *"TIME FIRE!"* *_Shiku no Doushi: Time Fire no Theme starts playing_* Beroba: "Why do I hear boss music?!"

[@cybergodzilla7032]

For me Neon aka Kamen rider Na-Go is my favorite female kamen rider for having the best written arc from going a person who thought that they weren’t strong compared to others then was able to stop competing herself to others and proves that she is strong regardless. if this makes sense

[@kuri876]

Can you make a video about decade next? He's my favorite rider

[@codyblaske9207]

believe it or not.............the reason it's only an upper half buckle is because up until geats began filming.................................fantasy was her BASE FORM they switched it to beat when filming started.

[@danielramsey6141]

😮 whoa! That’s crazy!

[@Aibadenshi]

Like with Buffa and Tycoon, I feel like they all should have gotten their sponsor Lazer Riser to use as their leg. Neon could've gotten her when her sponsor join the 1v1 match after her secret was reveal.

[@DouglasStewart99]

14:31-14:44 Lambo, I'm gonna be honest. I literally watched and finished Mirai Sentai Timeranger for the 1st time about two months ago, and how am I *_NOW_* just finding out Neon's dad, Kousei Kuruma was *_Naoto Takizawa/TimeFire?!_* If this ain't the best rags to riches story in Toku, IDK what is! 😆 Neon Kurama/Kamen Rider Neon. AKA the *ONE* Rider in Geats main 4 riders that _wasn't_ divisive in the fanbase (This comment made by a Buffa/Michinaga stan BTW). Not my absolute favorite female Rider or my favorite female Rider of the Reiwa era (That honor goes to Rider of entry that came after this as my pfp as of typing this shows), I still really liked Neon. She was one of the biggest cinnamon rolls of Geats alongside Keiwa, though unlike Keiwa (though both understandably and became pretty cool on his part) she didn't get corrupted when brought to her lowest in despair. And I gotta respect and admire her for that!

[@dleonidae]

"Cats always land on their feet" type beat

[@Cheerful_Bliss]

Neon and Jeanne are my fem goats, such a shame Kivala didn’t get this level of development.

[@DouglasStewart99]

True. But them again Kivala was still the 1st female Rider that didn't die and got to live in the whole show in the Heisei period. Not to mention she killed the titular Rider, Decade (Who was in Violent Emotion BTW) *the moment she **_debuted_* when no one else could. So I still feel like Kivala was great progress for female Kamen Riders despite small development.

[@justapassingbycommenterrem5642]

Aight hot take, i don't get why jeanne is seen as a well written female rider, NAGO is the GOAT of female rider representation, girl lowkey got the best story line, is competent, got multiple personal forms, does shit in the story, helps outside of fights and has her own personal arc. Revice got a wrecks then gets wrecked problem where you get a new form, it wrecks everyone, next episode it gets wrecked by somebody else, holy live, olteca demons, jack revice. And especially jeanne, for somebody titled invincible, she gets smacked around and loses like every fight after her debut, I basically made it a joke where she's a filler sidekick to revice and live where she's there to stall the villains before they come in to whoop ass lol. She won like 2 fights one on debut one against Aguilera. Writing wise I never really understood what her "arc" was? I mean I get she had to understand her weakness but what does that really mean? She doesn't have a clear flaw like her brother being headstrong or daiji who's pretty temperamentally attached to the family. Now here's a hotter take love-chan is a god awful demon for her, what i mean is there's no input from her demon unlike kagerou and vice, the demon's relationship with the riders are one of the central points in revice so gettin like basically the equivalent of a pet is so bad for her arc. Anyways rant over about jeanne, when i first started geats i was like am gonna hate the super extra character with neon but she grew on me real quick, her arc was amazin and i lowkey think it's better than breaks finger keiwa, she kicks ass and she's not only strong but also smart being able to support from the backlines. Her arc is very consistent and the never born thing was lowkey shocking, in KR sometimes they need characters to like suddenly develop another arc to fill time but I don't feel that way abou her or geats as a season (except goth keiwa arc). Tl/DR: neon would kick jeanne's ass in the writing and combat department lmao

[@nova7931]

Ok so if Ace’s mom made Neon does that make Neon Ace’s sister
