I don't dislike Haruto, but I always got a nagging feeling with him. It felt like he had really cool character development, but it all happened BEFORE the series started. It always seemed like his whole backstory with his dead parents leading up to how he became the person he was by the time the season started is would have made a better plot than the season itself.

I to started Skyrider recently and while I've only seen episode one (really have to pace myself here since it isn't finished being subbed), I'm enjoying it. Though I'm not going to lie, the action looks really awkward. Like I mean almost bad awkward. Kinda sad to me since an older show in Zubat had much better action.

Wizard episode 52.

I think I like pissy delinquent Rinko more than crappy detective Rinko. Hmm...yeah, I think I do.

Also, like...Ryuki's powers don't really work that way but whatevs. Just happy to see the suit again even if he didn't do a lot. Which really gets me thinking, yet again, that all these fancy team-ups between Riders would probably be a lot more meaningful to me if I'd watched all these guys' shows. When all I got under my belt is Kuuga, Ryuki, Blade, and everything from Wizard onward, it kinda renders most of these teamups to like two suits I actually care about (but that, without returning characters, always get shafted) and like ten other fuckers I don't know. Though at least the suits are pretty cool and stuff.

Speaking of, maaaan it is nice to see Kouta again. To see the Gaim suit, all new and shiny. And to hear some of that soundtrack again! Aaaaah. Man do I miss my fruity Rider.

I'm new to the franchise relatively, so I've been through KR Decade, Blade, and Kiva, then went back and watched all of Kuuga with Agito next up.

~Man~ I love this stuff.

That's not a high bar you've set there, to be fair. :lol

Glad you're having fun - Agito is a show that is very near and dear to me, so I hope you enjoy it.

Watched the second episode of Ghost's "Legendary Souls". It was good for a five minute thing.

I've finally finished Kuuga, it was... fine I guess. I'm pretty much completely neutral on it honestly. I thought Godai was okay, not as great as some protagonist and not as horrible as others. The plot was a interesting enough but didn't really grab me. The plot did have the oh-so-common issue of horribly rushing at the end and explaining itself poorly. The real highlights for me were Ichijou (SO HARDBOILED) and the fight scenes which I thought were really well done.

I really have to just mention the "extra episode" though, that was just insane. I always enjoy watching the weird cracktastic stuff a lot after I finish a season, because no matter how I feel about the season itself those are always just fun. I had to laugh at Ichijou and Godai constantly freaking out about the letters on the screen and bad camera filters.

I'm going to take a short break and watch the Wizard in Magika Land shorts, which I only just found even though I watched Wizard about 6 months ago. Then I'll do the logical followup and start on Agito.

I agree with you on the extra episode. I love meta comedy so episode 50 was pretty hilarious.

I need to stop rewatching fourze, I have watched it far too many times at this point.

Wizard episode 53.

Silly world within the magic stone, Alternative Zero's not a kaijin!

Anyway, crossover was kinda dumb, as they mostly always are, but kind of fun too I suppose.

And now I'm done with the series for reals.
