I'm now a few episodes into the retooled Hibiki. While not quite the nosedive I was dreading, you can tell Inoue's all over this show at this point - New character appears, he's a dick, and people don't have proper conversations with each other... |

Fourze Episodes 35 and 36: This was a great episode for JK and Gentarou. I enjoyed learning about JK, his dreams and his friend. This was really fun with Kengo, Yuki, and Nozama rocking out in the band was hilarious. Gentarou really is an amazing friend and I just loved how far he went to restore his bond with JK and breaking the effect Capricorn. This Core switch has me intrigued and it's great that the plot is moving forward and we totally have more of an idea what the bad guys are doing. Leo is just a badass here with using all of the other Horoscopes switches which is awesome to see those suits again because they have a lot of great designs this season. I am enjoying Ryuusei more especially his feud with Leo is great. He is so determined to beat this guy and I loved his strategy of attacking one part of Leo to give him a weak point, brilliant move. I liked that Cosmic states needs the bond to work that was a nice part to his final form and that is perfect for Gentarou. The Cosmic energy protecting Ryuusei and Gentarou is a nice touch that their power gives them a benefit not transformed too. I am liking how the series is going right now and that it is moving more to the other Horoscopes with more Cosmic energy spreading more now. I can't wait for more.

I'm 4 episodes into Agito.
This Shouichi really likes his puns. It is funny how they make all his friends so...agito-ted. Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah I am bad at the puns. |

Ghost episode 2. Solid, if generic episode. The CGI lizard battle was pretty weird. I definitely enjoy the ghost hunting aspect of the series, and hope they end up making good use of that. So far, I don't mind the collectibles, but I'm hoping they drift away from it a bit as the series goes on. Overall, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this show.
I've gotta say though, as somebody who primarily watches Sentai...it was so weird seeing him "beat" the enemy and not have them grow in size. Quote:
Yep. MISUNDERSTANDINGS are early Heisei's favorite plot device.

Ugh. Ghost is my first foray into non-Showa Rider, but this makes me dread watching the earlier series. Shows/movies that have misunderstandings as a central plot element drive me crazy. Which shows would you say feature that most heavily, and around when does it start to go away? Anyways: Fourze Episodes 37 and 38: This was a fantastic two-parter for Yuki, I thought it was great that she actually gets to strive for her dream and that they gave her a rival for this small arc. Eline was great except for when she was screaming but she was kind of similar to Yuki but very different and made for a great Horoscope. Also it was nice of her to heal Kengo of his problems I hope that kind of stays because I don’t see any of the power going away especially with him being able to do that run and that Yuki’s foot or ankle wasn’t magically broken again. Ryuusei was great especially when he lost out and didn’t tell anyone it was because of his short temper. Though I liked that he has a stronger connection with Gentarou and really feels like a very close friend these episodes with keeping Eline’s secret because of him and making sure they fought one on one. Also Meteor Storm using the Fire switch for that special attack was kind of awesome. I like how Meteor is still able to keep up with the enemies and Fourze here too. Gentarou was wonderful like always with doing his best to help make Eline believe that her and Yuki can be friends and going through all the trouble that Yuki wasn’t trying to sabotage her. Gentarou helping both of them was great. Leo is definitely loyal especially with just attacking Gentarou for being in eyes disrespectful to his boss. I am not surprised with who Taurus is with just introducing and having him be the fourth member succeeding here. Seriously the 30′s have been the best episodes of Fourze yet. I can’t wait for more.

Faiz is by far the worst when it comes to misunderstandings/poor communication skills. It is the fabric that binds that show together. It's Toshiki Inoue's favorite trope, so it shows up in all of his shows (Agito, Faiz, Kiva, and the bastard half of Hibiki), but the others are all far more manageable than Faiz. Faiz has characters aggressively refusing to explain their actions to each other, just to further the melodrama.

Technically it's more of a "FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, START EXPLAINING BASIC IMPORTANT FACTS TO EACH OTHER SO ALL OF THIS CRAP CAN BE AVOIDED!" but yeah, it gets pretty frustrating fast.

Just finished Ghost 5. Really enjoying this series so far. I just don't remember him getting the Newton Eyecon. Do they show him getting it, or does he just kind of...already have it?
