expanded feelings

SSS+++

- dragonic knight is just the best. literally unfuckable you cannot fuck dragonic knight

S

- espada is a suit that didn’t land for me at first but really grew on me! the colour balance and the cape do a lot of work on their own and work extremely well with Kento’s elegant swordplay style and lightning theme. Just super good super sexy

- brave dragon is a main rider base form design of course it’s fantastic, of course it’s a winner. just absolutely crazy and wild from a glance with bold colours, fascinating unique aspects such as the eyes and an extremely distinctive look you couldn’t mistake for anything else. just really good

- dragon alangina is the most based thing to ever happen in saber and uses the rider system to its advantage to create something that truly symbolises the characters and combines their best aspects

- calibur is a dark knight and a twisted counterpart to the main rider with a sick sword and an even sicker visor. again of COURSE it’s a winner it’s so sexy to look at 

- saikou sword lol

A

- saikou For Real This Time is beautiful in X-Swordsman. once again a super distinctive design that takes a comic book aesthetic and makes it work so well and is tied into a fantastic little story arc for the guy

- tategami lion is another one of those suits that just grew on me. it really breaks out of the base aesthetic of both the series in general and Blades itself which is reflective of what it represents for Rintarou’s character, and then the cloak and the ice visor and the overwhelming white is so so nice

- jaou dragon, again it had to grow on me, but man this suit is INTIMIDATING! in theory it’s a little bland but in actual practise this is a real bastard of a suit with so much presence

- buster is Solid he sells the dad bod rider aesthetic and has this feeling of an experienced veteran there to help the new guys. Super tough and super large he’s just wonderful

- sabela has design elements that are a bit weird but otherwise is beautiful to look at with some great colours and a lovely bug theming

- dragon arthur is mostly just brave dragon so of course it’s good, and then dragon hedgehog peter is exactly the kind of craziness that i like from these designs

- xross saber is really good! it’s the base form bathed in the stars and the night sky and y’know what that works. that works pretty well i can’t blame it

B+

- was primitive dragon’s being a berserker form a bit pointless and a bit prerequisite? sure. but it was really good, wasn’t it?? it’s hard to deny the aesthetic it nailed and how that worked with the fighting style. this is a feral little guy for sure

- saber ghost is fun and cute and that’s all i want from a ttfc special form

- jin amazons

- are solomon and storious kitbashes? yes. do they look good? also yes! far from the best designs and having few to no unique parts mean they’re not as characterful as they should be but ultimately they’re intimidating looking villains and they chose some good parts to repaint for the role

- emotional dragon is slightly clusterfucky but it still works out; the multiple capes and the way it’s basically Super Brave Dragon is really neat 

- xross saber’s other two forms are a bit clustery but still fine. just not as good as base xross

- saber tv-kun is alright

B-

- durandal is a pretty solid form aside from the helmet but doesn’t stand out very well. he’s imposing and gets a lot of points for looking tough with his trident but that’s about it

- blades daisenki is basically base/wonder blades but improved in every way... but again that is about it? a little bland aside from the cannons. lion chest is a lot more slick thankfully

- i get why people like slash but eh. after the initial surprise it ended up sinking to the background for me? a bit like the character

- blades in general has a lot of issues with his design, mostly the lion head being too awkward. daisenki shows how to get it right with the streamlining but having it just sitting there straight ahead in base is really weird and it’s not a stunning design. blades specter makes it a bit messier and fantastic lion has some fun wings but otherwise is even messier still

- kenzan is sorta bland? it’s fine whatever but i dunno just pretty boring

C

- elemental dragon is just. agh. not the worst thing ever but it’s not nice to look at either i just can’t like this

- the wonder combos aren’t great but golden alangina might be the worst for how bad the different golds and yellows clash and it really doesn’t help that this is his final form alongside xross and tategami. just pretty bad

D

- crimson dragon is better than golden alangina but i hate this bitch for all the screentime he got
