Yeah, that is why I could only watch the first episode last year. It had this whole Glee vibe to me, and I hate Glee. Plus, I hated the whole bs lunch room scene and the fact that the teachers are quite lackluster at their jobs. Oh, and the girl that was completely useless. I'm hoping that when I start marathoning it next week that it goes beyond all of that.

Next up, I watched the first 8 episodes of Kuuga. I have to say, the story of the show has already been great. I love the plot, the characters, but the fights leave something to be desired. I mean, I loved the bike stunts in the fourth episode, but the fights against the Grasshopper Grongi felt boring and lacking energy. Maybe it is because there seems to be a lack of energetic battle music, but something is definitely missing. I mean, I love his blue form because I love that he uses long weapons, but I just wanted the fight to end so the story could pick back up. Also, the video quality is absolutely attrocious and the fansub group (MFC or something) did not spell check or even bother to subtitle what the Grongi are saying nor the locations. It sucks that Nihon is only on episode 12 because I would definitely watch their subs over this group. Complaints aside, I look forward to watching another batch of episodes tomorrow.
The Grongi speak their own language and aren't meant to be understood. There are translations available (the language is basically just a simple cipher) and MCS has released a few episodes with optional Grongi subtitles. When the show originally aired, though, the viewers had no idea what the Grongi were saying. It's something that's designed to add an air of mystery to the show and, honestly, if you do know what they're saying it spoils a good deal of the plot pretty early on. |

That makes sense, but that still does not excuse the constant spelling errors and the lack of subtitling the locations.

Watched the first two episodes of W. Overall first impressions are good but that T-Rex Dopant was really painful to watch. And that was BEFORE it turned into a giant CGI monstrosity.

Yeah, that was one of the worst dopant costumes, but I've seen that arc 4 times I think now, and it's kinda grown on me. The CGI thing was bad, but I don't know if they do less ambitious CGI later, or if it just gets better.

Am I the only one that liked the T-Rex Dopant? Even the CGI? |

No one is complaining that they subbed Kuuga. He's complaining that they really should've caught the spelling errors.

PS Spell check is 2 words. Errors happen. There's no need to nitpick it all the time. Last edited by Blade Raider; 08-16-2012 at 06:01 PM.. |
