We still have it, it's just not as strong as it was back then. I kinda miss it too. It's really cool to be watching one of them and then all of a sudden Ichigo pops up and is like "I'm here to mentor you and save your ass." Now we only really get that with the movies.

Didn't say he wasn't, but it's a bit exhausting to have a cast of three main characters, but only one of them is capable of anything.

Yeah exactly and how the movies do give us some good parts it's not like it was in the Showa Era. I mean could you imagine is Kuuga came by to help Agito or Faiz helped Blade or OOO checked in on Fourze. I think it would have been really fun.

Anyways moving back to STRONGER!

Stronger Episode 4: I have to say I love the pacing of each episode of Stronger it gets you right into the threat and how Shigeru and Yuriko deal with it. This has to be Tackle's best episode yet the only thing she couldn't take care of was the main turtle enemy but she kicked the crap out of all the henchmen. Tachibana was fun to see him be possessed by the monster and be evil for once. Shigeru stole the show for me again, he is so much fun, he kicked henchmen and monster butt. Also I loved his electric stream move and how he electrocuted the Turtle Monster in the Water, that must have hurt a lot. I also like his Kabuto Tracker ability too. Honestly a lot of fun this show and I can't wait for more.

That actually sorta almost happened.

I remember hearing something like that was supposed to happen.

The "continuity" between all the Showa Riders was pretty loose anyway that it very well was the equivalent of having Faiz visiting Blade, in that it makes no internal logical sense but its a crossover so it doesn't have to.

To be fair all the riders appearing in the next series I thought they were just travelling so it makes some sense.


Stronger Episode 5: They got to the action quick here, and I love that there is about 3 fight scenes per episodes, it's glorious. I also love the fact that Shigeru literally takes off his gloves to transform and get serious. I am loving Mister Titan, he is a very good villain; I like that he was yelling at the monster; Why are you fighting? You have one job do it! Tackle didn't get chumped again so that's awesome she was pretty kick ass and that poor Black Satan soldier that got impaled in his eye. Shigeru was pretty intelligent in tracking the monster's next target and manage to stop him in time. Also I love that he has magnetic powers to redirect metal objects back at his opponents. That they showed and used American Football is awesome and I love that Shigeru is interested in it too. Tachibana was helpful too and I loved him using the giant tree branch and helping Shigeru fight too. Well I definitely said I love so many different parts of this episode and well why not, this show is fantastic right now and I am loving Shigeru a lot. I can't wait for more.

Sorry I've been gone so long. A lot has happened in my life, some quite bad, some quite good. It is great to be back though.

Finally giving OOO a real shot, and I am actually kinda digging it haha.

Still need to watch Drive, but no PC right now makes that difficult.

Only a few eps into OOO, so not sure what I plan to watch next. Ryuki, Hibiki and Faiz are my top 3, maybe a season closer to them in tone, probably Kabuto, which I started a while back but put on hold.

Blade! Watch Blade. Seriously.
