It's super rewarding, isn't it? I remember starting the show thinking I was going to find her really frustrating, but now I'm really mostly watching it for her. I think she has a far better understanding of what it is to help others than a lot of the other characters, and she doesn't even have any powers, lol.

Convinced a friend to do a blind watch of Kamen Rider Blade, doing two episodes a week and discussing them as we watch.
...episode 1 has so much going on. I hope I don't immediately lose my bud. "Why are you standing there?" was funny.

Watching Toku with friends is typically pretty fun. Hope you both have a good time.

Finished Saber episode 15, what seems to be the end of the first major arc. It continues to just be sort of ok. I love Daishinji becoming a Rider, and the original Saber turning out to be the current Calibur was an interesting twist. Someone involved in the show must really hate Kento, making him go through dramatic death scenes two episodes in a row. It's modern Kamen Rider, so I doubt he's permadead, but it was still rough to watch. Ren's screams during Kento's real death were legitimately disturbing, I was surprised by his acting agility there.
Q1 upgrade suits were all pretty great. Dragonic Knight is gorgeous, and I'm disappointed how little it was used in the couple episodes after it's debut. King Lion Daisenki is pretty cool looking, if a bit overwhelmingly blue. Love the lion mode, and Mei's acting as Rintaro's personal Woz during it's debut. She continues to be the best part of the show! And Jaou Dragon was fantastic, especially the helmet, which was very reminiscent of Cross-Z. Impressive how big a difference an extra bit of armor to an unchanged undersuit can make. Getting into the Q2 story arc next episode, I have absolutely no clue where the whole "traitor in Sword of Logos besides Kento's dad" thing came from, or why Kento's dad turning traitor because of a traitor made Kamijo turn double traitor. I still can't figure out what the purpose of anything the Megid trio are doing is, what Avalon was, and I seem to have missed where the Jaou Dragon and King Lion Daisenki WRBs came from. If anyone would be able to provide a brief summary of eps 1-15, I'd appreciate it, because i feel like I'm missing some important stuff.

I think everyone is feeling that. The most comment complaint seems to be the show's pacing. I don't really want to be down on the show in yet another thread, but the way in which it introduces new developments at the drop of a hat as if such things have been foreshadowed for months often makes the show feel disjointed and incoherent, in my opinion.

Josh Dragon and King Lion were set up back in episode 9 (I even uploaded some screenshots to a Facebook group I’m in). The former was made by combining the power of Jaaku Dragon with the three Wonder Combos (Crimson Dragon, Fantastic Lion and Golden Alangina) along with three Altar Books. Meanwhile, King Lion was mentioned to be created from studying Touma’s blank book and the King of Arthur book in order to make a more powerful book.

Anyway, it seems the basic WRBs are from the great book, but the bigger ones (Jaou, Dragonic, King Lion, and Q2 Megids) are most likely man-made or from a different source entirely. Jaou being made by doing the hand-writing thing the Megid are doing, but inscribing it on a blank WRB, and also using the energies/powers of three WRBs and ARBs. Dragonic is most likely made by Yuri, and King Lion is artificially made using data on Dragonic. This also means that the bigger WRBs are technological somewhat? The ARBs also act like Blade's cards in that they can seal a monster, I guess. In the case of Yuri's WRB, it can just be easily explained it was a basic WRB that changed after Yuri fused with the Sword Of Light. |

Rewatching one of myobviously favorite episodes in Zero-One just to see if Gai's ""redemption"" still holds up to my ZAIA-stained eyes.
It still does. For what the team had to work with, I still think they did really good job in converting Gai to their side. It's dumb, it's stupid, how can you forgive this guy just because he got his robot dog back? I don't know what to tell you, it was great seeing him get on his knees, clutching his dog. It was great to see him attempt to make amends with the cast and all of them just partially accepting it. They didn't completely forgive him, but they do need him. The part where he defends Aruto from the Ark's attack and basically tells him "I hate you so much, kid, but I love your company so goddamn much. Now help me beat this dude!" still brings some emotion to me. |
