I'm no forum-poster-rider-liveblog-critic (because such a thing doesn't exist!), but all your posts are good as usual!?
It's a shame Blade turned out to just be a rotten, no-good criminal though. No wonder the show tried so hard to sideline him at the beginning! |

For the other thing, thanks. Sometimes... it's like baseball, where sometimes you really get ahold of one, and sometimes you think Man I Really Did Not Get Ahold Of That One. Nothing for it but to take another swing, I guess.

Learning Ondul the Easy WEEEEEEI! (#9) In today's lesson, the Strongest Rider finally makes his debut, and he... doesn't actually speak in Ondul. Like, ever. Even when literally every other main character on the show does. Mutsuki's a real oddity for a lot of reasons, but Leangle does still properly have his own emoticon with (0H0), and, thanks to one overly enthusiastic lady at a supermarket telling him to chase down a thief (okkakten mutsuki! -> oppeketenmukki-!), he even gets his own corrupted nickname just like Kenjaki and Dadi do. Don't be surprised if you see me referring to him as Mukki more than by his actual name.

Funny (?) story - around the time Mutsuki showed up when I was watching this during the original broadcast, I started to feel like I was getting a better handle on listening comprehension (not actually true, as I know NOW, but at the time it was a motivational confidence booster. I will always have a bit of a soft spot for Mutsuki for speaking clearly enough that I could actually look up what he was saying) |

These recent posts remind me that I need to look up a specific episode again so I can rant about why I think Mutsuki is the worst written character in the show once Die gets to it. And then Fish will reply and inform me about some context I'm missing and that'll be cool.
At least he's not bad during these early episodes though.

The “again” thing, me using it a bunch already, it’s almost entirely a joke. I don’t think this episode was especially repetitious or anything. I mean, the Karasuma thing, maybe. I love that that dude hung around for twelve minutes of an episode before he had to leave the country. Hilarious. I really hope we find out that he’s ducking loan sharks or something. He gets suspiciously antsy whenever he has to hang around Team Blade for more than a minute.

The difference of the hero approach between Chalice and Blade here, for the former, as an anti-hero he's more concerned of finishing the enemy with little regard of others, while for the latter, he knows full well that it's meant to protect others, killing monster is a form of doing that, and thus, citizen's safety is the priority. Also, with you talking about previous places/settings here, do you also realize that, the beach where Emu and Kiriya got reuinted again also gets re-used? As well as the place where (Hajime) Nakamura got killed by Tiger in Ryuki.

I also did a really great job cleaning my tub last week, and no one even mentioned it! (Also, thanks. I wasn't really fishing for praise or anything, with that poor appraisal of my recent posts. It's just, I don't know. Felt like I left a lot of meat on the bones of that episode. Not like it was an all-time winner of a Blade, but... I don't know. Sometimes I feel good about these. Most times they're fire-and-forget, just a way to spark discussion. But sometimes it's like Eesh, Shanked It.) Quote:
There's a lot of hilarity in this episode, particularly with the shoplifting gag (AMAZING), but one of the things that has always stuck with me is Tachibana and Kenzaki harassing a bunch of high school students looking for "Mutsuki" and just - how does no one bat an eyelash at two grown-ass men stalking a teenager???

He's homaging the better of the two Teen Wolf movies, at the very least. I really liked his Henshin, what little of it there was. I'm watching it, waiting for some elaborate arm movement or something, and he just... stands there. And then it's OPEN UP and he turns into Leangle. It's a neat way to play with tension, to have this long beat of anticipation and then RIDER. Quote:
Karasuma is the exposition guy though? I want to know, again, what makes this 180 degree turnabout regarding him? Also, I really wondered what's up with Karasuma in previous episode, but the answer was quick one, and a rather easy way too for him to do that and gives vague impressions regarding his morality, the second time (he was accused of unsealing the Undead before, now the story plays out like him actually aiding Isaka), that he was mind controlled. Not shown how he got freed of it though.
My read on the mind control was that as soon as Trenchcoat Mastermind was sealed by Garren, everyone under his control was freed. That's why the various soldiers just ran away from the truck at the same time Karasuma came to his senses. They just all came back to normal. Quote:
Also here's the thing in this episode; so Kenzaki seems to still put Tachibana higher in pedestal than Kotaro, the person he claimed to be his "first friend" in episode 4 (with also a friendly introduction flashback shown here). When Kotaro talks about replacing Tachibana, he lashes out at him.
Quote:
Uhh... I know, Amane is there to be Hajime's morality pet, his care for her humanizes him. But Amane's thing to Hajime is already on an obsessive crush, which could make it a creepy reverse-pedo stuff, with the addition of her being completely clingy about him with little space given and... she's not merely lightened up around Hajime, by that she mistreats anyone that isn't Hajime, partly because to make Hajime look better compared to them.
For Amane mistreating other men... I think she's just got a really low tolerance for weak men? She doesn't find much to admire in men like Kotaro, and she's got no filter when it comes to telling them. They're a very no-filter family!

Like most of the starter cards that Garren and Chalice had, Leangle’s starter deck are all Undead that were sealed offscreen or were never unsealed in the first place.
And because the show has to keep to a budget we aren’t going to see all of the Undead but we do see most of them and of the handfull never seen in Blade some have full designs for side story’s or at least a sketch of their head |
