Amazon Episode 3: I am loving Amazon a lot. I just love his raw emotions and how he displays them through his actions because he can't really communicate through language here. I like that he got past his fears of the motorcycle to use it to help save Masahiko. It was great to see Tobei again, much more calmer and less crazy than his Chief from UltraMan lol. Tobei is awesome and I love seeing him with the different riders. The fight with the Mantis monster was pretty cool and very savage. Gedon is something else and the 10 Faced Demon is really a special looking villain. Well I can't wait for more.

Amazon Episode 4: Gedon are big assholes and they definitely show it here. This is really dark with all the people with answers for Amazon keep getting killed. Gedon is merciless and cruel. The Ten-Faced Demon is just horrific with what he does here. I love Amazon learning more language and talking more with Masahiko and Tachibana. Tachibana building the Jungler is awesome and I love the design of it a lot. Masahiko I have to say is really good even great as a kid in the Showa Era with Amazon and how he's trying to help find answers for Amazon too. The action was amazing and vicious but Amazon has some awesome moves. I can't wait for more.

We watched 7-11 of Blade tonight. My god this show just continues to be awesome and still remains being my favorite Kamen Rider series. All of the characters are great, the mythology dealing with the Undead is interesting, the music freaking rocks, and the cinematography is beautiful. This show does such a great job with its production values that no show has ever lived up to it for me.

Re-watched the Ghost summer movie yesterday. Still thing it's overall well done. Action is amazing, story is pretty engaging (though they could use some more time to flesh out Makoto's dad) and it's overall entertaining. Way better than what the show does lately.

Just watched Ghost Episode 43. As Kiwami pointed out, Takeru has 5 days left, and Onari, for whatever insane reason, finds it necessary to goof off as an eyecon and take possession of the one guy on the team that knows almost everything there is to know about the Ganma and their world, giving us yet ANOTHER pointless plot thread during the end-game of a show that already has too much shit going.


There was a standout moment in this episode though, and that was Gramps plainly telling Onari to just get out, which is probably exactly what the audience is thinking at this point.

I didn't think it was pointless at all. They've already shown in the series that when Onari feels useless he'll go out of his way to find a way to help. That's exactly what he's doing here. I love Onari and I'm not sick of him. I think the plot has been going fine and thought the last episode was fantastic.

Amazon Episode 5: The 10 Faced Demon is intriguing that blood turns the other faces red. I also really like how strong and determined this villain is. I felt bad for Amazon as the police and paparazzi scared him into hating humans phase but glad friendship with Masahiko helped him get past it. I just continue to enjoy Amazon learning of human language and culture and how it helps him grow and expand as a character. The action is awesome and brutal as well that Mole Beastman was bleeding as much as Amazon was. I can't wait for more.

Wait, is Ghost not running in real time?

And that schtick would have been fine less than halfway through the series, but when it happens at crunch time it shows just how self-centrered and stupid Onari is.

Eh, taking over Alain's body would've been a terrible idea whenever it happened. Now is just the worst possible time. If Onari really wanted to help he'd have left the show with the painter and composer Ganmas.

Oh I agree. I just feel it would have been more justifiably dumb as a meandering filler episode rather than one in the final stretch.

Also damn I'd completely forgotten the Painter Ganma was even a thing, and I actually liked that character :lol
