Good Qualities

 * 1) Likeable characters such as Touma Kamiyama/Kamen Rider Saber, Rintaro Shindo/Kamen Rider Blades, Ryo Ogami/Kamen Rider Buster, Tetsuo Daishinji/Kamen Rider Slash, Yuri/Kamen Rider Saikou and Desast.
 * 2) Mei Sudo is a really likeable character, despite most of her antics being really annoying at times, it's nice to see her mature up over the course and her recklessness was also toned down really greatly.
 * 3) The fight scenes are well choreographed.
 * 4) The theme song is so colorful and lively.
 * 5) Amazing ending song.
 * 6) It spawned a few internet memes.

 * 9) The 26th episode is probably the greatest episode so far in this series.
 * 10) The concept of knights, fairy-tales, and literature was interesting and executed really well.
 * 11) Master Logos/Isaac was a pretty intimidating villain.
 * 12) Sophia becoming Calibur as a "Last minute resort" was incredibly cool.
 * 13) It spawned an awesome prequel miniseries (Sword of Logos Saga).
 * 14) It aired alongside Mashin Sentai Kiramager. A great Super Sentai season.
 * 15) Its crossover with mh:terribletvshows:Kamen Rider Ghost was pretty good, even if Ghost was a poor season.

Bad Qualities

 * 2) Reika was badly flanderized ever since the debut of Ryoga.
 * 3) The first arc felt pretty rushed.
 * 4) Some poorly written episodes.
 * 5) The show majorly dipped in quality after Storious became the final antagonist.
