OOO is OOO, so like, I mean, let me put it this way: even if you were wearing rose-tinted glasses for it, you could take them off, and the show you were watching would still be Kamen Rider OOO. If that makes any sense at all? It's admittedly harder for me to grasp your perspective when my relationship with OOO is kinda the opposite of what you're scared of – with me constantly undervaluing it and realizing how much it does hold up. The bottom line is I think you're in for a fun ride without a doubt. How many iconic moments are in just those first few sets of episodes, even? So much to look forward to! I also feel pretty optimistic about your chances with Ghost given how much you hit the nail on the head with the observation about mechanical plot details there; and this is apparently not even having started the show again yet. It's definitely a series that can require a bit more of leeway on that front than usual to get into. I'll definitely be looking forward to hearing anything you have to say about either show, however infrequent. Makes me feel all the more inspired to eventually make that thread about a certain Sentai I'd be more than happy to watch a third time. ...That isn't LuPat, I mean. Or Ninninger. ...if only because I already wrote about that one. Oh, and this has basically nothing to do with anything, but the first time I saw that new signature, I never even considered the significance because I was too busy reminiscing about how happy it always makes me to think that my favorite Kamen Rider once cosplayed as my other favorite Kamen Rider: It's like the "Rider shows people hate that I deeply care about" combo pack!

Honestly, after these two? I do want to rewatch Decade and W at some point after I finish Black RX... but I also intended to throw OOO and Fourze in there so I think I'll stave off that big rewatch for a while. So I think my next rewatch, whenever it is, might actually be Go-Busters!

You two are just out here trying to peddle the "Ghost is the best series" opinion to distract from the looming threat of Androzani and Die's "Hibiki 31-49 is the better half" opinion that'll forever claim the crown of "Oh my god how can you think that?" championship.
Anyway, who'd like to hear about how Wizard is an underrated 'gem'? See it's funny because it's gem like a jewel and Wizard has a jewel for a face haha.

Wait, you're actually doing it weekly? That's... well, I guess some kind of dedication, but on the other hand only a half hour a week? Perfectly balanced and all that.
(Also, interesting you brought up both Den-O and Ghost, 2 shows where my opinions generally are 'Amazing at the slice of life, muddles itself completely when they try to do the big apocalyptic ending'. Good amount of fondness for both, though!)

Well, I'm also watching all of Saber, Kiramager and Z as they come out; and I'm binging Abaranger (all of these are very good, by the way). If anything I'm probably doing too much!

See, to me, who is approx a 2 months and 14 episodes into their 'binge' of Kamen Rider X, and like three weeks behind on Z god I Hope the subs still work, that is *far* too much! At least I'm caught up with Saber, though!

Sad you're not making an OOO thread. Would love a centralized place to gush about that show.
Man, if only someone who loves OOO and is really good at writing about shows(andwhoalsomadeareallygoodthreadofanothershowilove) would do it...

I'm currently rewatching parts of Gaim to do a review for my non-fiction writing course in university.
It''s such a shame I'll never be able to see my assessor's face once they read about dancing samurais with magical talking belts that can open portals to summon fruit armor.

Now that it's done, got back to watching Super-1 using Bereke Scrubs' translation. And yeah, the new subs are an improvement, and I'm still having alot of fun with the show itself! Currently at episode 7, and I gotta say, tearing your hand off to throw it a a guy in order to get him to fall down a cliff and explode is one of the most metal things I've seen in awhile...
