So I took Kickback's advice and started Drive at ep 20, and he's right. You can start there and not miss any story. Anyway. I watched 20, 21, and 22 and they all need to be retitled "Medic is a Bitch: The Trilogy". God I just want her dead. Actually felt sorry for Brain too which was weird, and Chase. So much for Chase.

Also the story tries to get it's act together and focused from close around this point and the plot isn't dragging it's feet with plots like Chase's past self and the Drives' secret identity plot. Also in later episode Shinnosuke's get more character motives, unfortunately this advancement doesn't fix one of the major issues with Drive in that there is barely any of Hayase in the plot.

You're not missing much by the way, Shin is a thing that is interesting to see because it is so different, but as a Rider-fan you don't really get anything from it. You can wait until you had your fair share of horror movies to harden you up and then watch it. @Topic: I'm up to episode 15 of Ryuki. I was a little annoyed with 14 at first because of the whole "He obviously didn’t kill him but still feels guilty about it"-thing, but it got resolved so quick and in a good way that I don't mind it too much now. Still, would've made a much bigger impact if we as the viewer would also thought Shinji killed him. Last edited by Kiwami; 05-25-2015 at 03:02 AM.. |

Hibiki episode 41: Well I have to say that I loved Asumu standing up for himself against Kiriya and choosing to go with Kiriya to learn what Akira had to teach them. I enjoyed Akira's decision it makes why she was in hiding and silent make a lot of sense. I figure after she saw what hatred turned Shuki into that she eventually might turn into that and did not want that. I enjoyed that she wanted to pass on Ibuki's knowledge to both Asumu and Kiriya so that they get something of what he taught her. I think it's great she wanted to go have a normal life and it's perfectly fine that she wants that. I could very much relate to Ibuki with wanting someone to say something but just staying quiet and not knowing what they are thinking and it's just driving you nuts (it was pretty much my weekend); so kind of really glad that Ibuki got answers from her. I am also happy that Ibuki and Todoroki kicked the crap out of that Tree Makamou from the forest and that Hibiki doesn't need to save the day all the time. Also enjoyed Asumu and Kiriya taking Todoroki's guitar and attacking the tree that controlled the forest, great show of courage and that they want to save lives. Also Kiriya I think gained a lot of development with saving the kid from the truck and helping save Kasumi too, he's found his resolve the same with Asumu and I'm glad Hibiki has finally taken them in as Disciples. I am intrigued that the leaders of the Makamou and the Branch Chief met and this Orochi guy doesn't sound like good news. Well I am intrigued for what happens next and can't wait for more.

Then stay away from it, the transformation sequence alone is guaranteed to give you nightmares.

Yeah sometimes that's necessary. I think we all stayed up late once, saw a movie that was so gross that we couldn’t stop watching it and then couldn’t sleep well for a week. It happened to me, with a movie that was so terrible and dumb it wasn’t even released for home media (except for a bootleg in Taiwan), and it happened to everyone else.
There's no shame in admitting you get scared easily, especially when you're younger. I remember getting really scared at the end of Spaceballs when the Alien-parody bursts out of the guy and dances, and today I love the shit out of the Alien-franchise. It's just something you need to grow into, forcing yourself into watching this stuff won't help you. And in the case of Shin, you're better of watching some good Rider/Sentai anyways. It's not terrible, but only really interesting in its differences and getting a horror-vibe from this franchise. @Topic: I'm at Episode 17 now, and I can't wait for the inevitable, horrible demise of Rhino-Rider. That dumb piece of shit. Last edited by Kiwami; 05-25-2015 at 12:17 PM.. |
