If there's any Kamen Rider series you're going to hear long and conflicting opinions about, it's more than likely going to be Kamen Rider Hibiki. Based on an early concept by original Kamen Rider creator Shotaro Ishinomori, this troubled series had its producer and writers replaced 29 episodes in - leading to a very significant change in tone and direction. Toei have never issued an official statement as to why the changes were made, but many fans have chalked it down to the main reason being low toy sales (which as we know, is the lifeblood of any Rider series these days). As such, the sixth Heisei era Rider series (fifteenth overall) is the point of much discussion and I thought it was time for me to find out why.
