Now that you mention it, I feel like I remember hearing jokes about that back when Wizard aired. :lol

I can only hope Santa Claus shows up to save Kiriya tonight. :p

I'm on the home-stretch of Faiz and, it's pretty awesome though it totally does a plot 180 in the teens and never looks back, which is pretty weird. Actually, a lot of plot points get dumped but - who cares, 'cuz the new ones are soooo melodramatic!!

And, yeah, everyone in this show is corrupted on some level, barring Mari and Keitaro.

Nice pot leaf pendant, Kusaka. You think this was a reverse psychology gambit? "Kusaka is a coniving, sociopathic, douche-hat - if kids see him with some pot related paraphanalia, they'll never touch the stuff!". It should be noted that he's the only non-idiot in the entire show.

I'm sorry, Kusaka has a pot pendant? How did I never notice this?

Yeah, it's an upside down potleaf which I only noticed pretty late in the show during a close up!

Giving Blade another try.

Stick with it - the first few episodes are a rollercoaster.

I'm up to episode 12 of Kiva.

Enjoying it mostly. I really like Wataru. And Jiro is pretty cool.

This Nago guy sure is a real ixahole though.

Gave the first episode of V3 a shot. It's even cheesier than Amazon somehow, which is delightful. Also first episode the main character gets his whole family murdered, how Showa. I was pretty surprised at how heavily the first episode was connected with the previous show though, Tachibana sure I expected, but not previous Riders! Looks like this will be fun experience.

V3 is a great show; hope you enjoy it.

Started Kuuga and I'm loving it. Just the right amount of gay in it, and I'm all about that.
