But I do have an extensive knowledge of some behind the scenes facts. Touma?s outfit was inspired by the wardrobe of Ernest Hemingway And the show was originally just your standard Rider battle show for the umpteenth time, but given COVID and the lack of available studio space it brought with it, they realised that they could only have two sets (the book shop and xxxxxxxx xxxx, and that peopel probably don’t want to see a show where the heroes are fighting each other in a time where everyone would want to stay together. And for some casting fun, since that’s one thing I’ll always do, Zoous (the bad guy with no sleeves) is played by Koji Sakawa, who was previously the MC in the beauty contest episodes from Fourze. And he’s the only one of the trio of actors who doesn’t have American ancestry (he was born in Hawaii, but his parents moved back to Japan before he learned to talk). Anyway, Saber itself. It’s a show that actually got me to buy the toys with semi-frequency (the only major ones I’m lacking are the two mid-season forms and the movie/spin-off forms), so I’ll probably be sharing some videos where apropos. But overall, I had a slightly better time with this show than the two shows it?s either side of, so I’ll be mostly positive this time (except for something when we get to episode 13. Hoo boy am I gonna whip up a sh*t storm there). |

And in any case, it's better than Tendo, whose whole character consists of listening carefully to his grandmother. |

Oh yeah, it's Sabering time! It's a show I have mixed feelings about, but overall I came away enjoying a lot of the individual elements that go together into it, even if the storytelling choices it makes are somewhat flawed imo. And episode one has a decent chunk of that - it goes too fast, having to establish a status quo before upending it, and the centering around Touma magically pulling a sword isn't disimilar to other series having its heroes be empowered - Ghost dying and coming back to live in Ep 1 is probably the first that comes to mind, totally not because of all the other Ghost mentions - but it's a lot to take in.

"Inspired by"... man, it looks like Touma is wearing Hemingway's actual clothes, from the way he's swimming in them. Quote:
