Edo set ain't gonna pay for itself.

OOOs 35: UNICORNS ARE NOT DINOSAURS.

Also oohoohoohoo the detective is awake! Where is Ankh to squat now?

They explained that the purple greed make fantasy yummies, not just dinosaur

Must've missed that.

Or the sub I'm watching didn't translate it proper-wait, Dinosaurs aren't fantasy creatures!

...... Ask user KamenRiderOOO, he'll probably give you an over elaborate reason for why :lol

and I can hear the gates of hell opening.

I think over at least the past 10 years that set has paid for itself about 100 times as much as Toei usese it :lol
Hell I'm not even sure how old that set really is.

I'm working on OOO's and I absolutely love it next episode is the priemier of TaJaDor and I can't wait to see it in action.

But they are reptilian, and do you know what else is reptilian? Dragons. Yeah...that's the best I could come up with.

But... Dinosaurs are more in common with birds.

But...they're still reptile-gosh man, this is a world where armor materializes out of thin air.

Actual reason: Ankh took birds and reptiles were open.

That's suspension of disbelief. This is just dumb. Accepting that a guy has a magic belt that turns him into a super hero is not the same as stuff happening for no reason. I hate it when shows break their own rules. Each Greeed has a motif, each Yummy matches the motif of the Greeed that created it. Uva is Bugs, fish girl is fish and water stuff, the cat face has pussycats, the hosenose has big and strong land animals, and Ankh is birds. Purple farts are dinosaurs, and spawn... unicorns.

Sorry, this don't working.

So where does the unicorn come from?

Unicorns are dinosaurs now, obviously.

:lol

Darn it...you just had to use logic on me didn't you? :lol

Finished Faiz 26-29. Ok Delta's introduction arc. They've been teasing how powerful Delta is but they've only shown bits and pieces.

Ok Kitazaki might just have been my favorite character in the show! He acts like he's high on something but shows he's quite powerful. And the way he wiped the floor with Takuma and here I was thinking Takuma was such a badass with what he did to Kaido early in the series. And the way he got Takuma to shiver like a baby, man that was awesome.

And Takumi and Yuji finally finding out about each other, about time too. I'm quite liking Faiz though I think I'm in the minority.

I liked it too, at this point. Wait until it's over before you fully make up your mind.

Episode 38 of OOOs: God Date is fucking funny. That face after he woke up X] priceless. The whole thing with him and the Birthday man seemed kind of... I dunno, but it explains a lot of how Birth was just kind of running around. Overall those two eps were expertly crafted, marred only by Birth's laughable super mode where he useses all his gadgets at once. Just... what am I looking at. I felt it broke the emotional tension. However since said tension was fabricated, it all worked out. Also OOOs ended up with a lot of medals after that one. The end screen is like a magic eye picture now.

So...epiodes 34-36 of Kiva:

hey! Maya is still alive! But he has an eyepatch...what? Did Bishop gouge her eye out or something? Anyway...poor Yuri. It was also cool to see Jirou show up and give Wataru some advice, though I found it kind of weird that he didn't know who Jirou was. I wish Jirou had just said "I'm your sword, dude" it was also intereting how Bassha called Wataru "Onii-chan" considering he was willing to kill him a few episode earlier. One thing though, why did Otoya posses Wataru? They never explained it, and it never happened again. Also Taiga found out that Mio likes Wataru...I wonder how this'll play out. The Zanbat sword also appeared (inb4 "fapsword" jokes). Kind also appeared, right when I aw those boots, I knew who it was. Also, more forshadowing for Dark Kiva!

That's sums up so many different parts of Kiva.

You are are in the minority...but not alone....what is cool is Kitazaki is Zero in Garo :D

Ok, Dogabaki. Thinking about Kiva...oh! Spoiler tags. What is Kengo's deal? One minute he's like "Wataru! Yo're my best friend!" Then after Watau does one minor thing, usually for his protection, or to spare his feelings he completely turns on him and is like "oh, I guess then you're not my friend anymore. Get out of here! You're a fake friend; I don't want to see yor face again!" It's like...dude...Wataru helped you out after your bandmates abandoned you a few days before your gig. Gosh...Nago's a jerk, but I feel that he deserves IXA way more than Kengo does. Rant over.

Kengo is my least favorite part of that show. Really he's the only thing I didn't like at all. I get that he went away and came back after being "betrayed" by Wataru but it's so silly how he acts when he returns. He was a terrible IXA in my opinion. Hell I even liked Spider Fangire better in that suit than him :lol

OOOs 40: Well, that was certainly something. That ending was intense, but really, the character building of the episode was pretty good. I was honestly getting... I don't know if the right word is tired frustrated, with how indomidable Ankh's brutish apathy to everyone around him is. To see it crack, even a teensy bit, even still preceeded by that snear of his, was refreshing. I felt that of all the characters, while not outright stagnating, has been so slow to develope you could almost miss it. Which wasn't really a good thing considering he's, well a main character. And as far as Birth working out, I find he's... not much of a drastic improvement. But that's not really his fault.

I kind of want to watch more, but I also really want my SIC TaJaDor to arrive before I finish the show.

i'm on episode 4 of kuuga and i like a lot! i love how the one gourmin freaks people out by trying to give them change XD

Kengo's about-face in personality was probably my biggest problem with Kiva. It really did just make no sense.

OOOs 41: Good God Lost Ankh has an annoying laugh. I really don't get it, Ankh (the arm) had such a controlled and developed personality, I mean he was the real Ankh, while Lost Ankh as a child. Why isn't he now just returning to how he was before? I guess what I'm gettign at is, while I understand that Lost Ankh would be stronger since he's a full body with more core medals, why isn't Ankh returning a sthe dominant personality since he's, well, Ankh. It's very confusing. I guess I'm seeing it as arm Ankh's personality is as much a part of Ankh as the arm itself, so I don't get this battle of the personalities. (though it makes for great television) And I don't get why the under developed, child-like sub-personality would take over even if it had more cores. What, he grew a new mind but not a new arm? This isn't really bad, since it's good entertainment, but I just don't understand why both Ankhs don't just fuse into one being, and why arm Ankh is somehow still and entity inside Lost Ankh and not just Ankh Ankh.

Other than that seeing the detective was interesting, and I guess it's good developement for Hina. (Shame she's about as energetic and compelling as always, which is to say she is not) And Eiji leaving made total sense. He wasn't doing it because he was sulking, which I expected. He's just leaving because he has no more business being around them and dragging them into his conflict. And he's mature about it, something I didn't expect.

Also that kid has either got to text Double and ask him how to use that magic subspace they store their memories for his cores, or realise he has a little pouch he can keep important cores in on his belt. Fucking aorund with that book not only looks silly, but it's just begging to be stolen.

Man, a lot is going down. I mean, I expected as much since we're in the final stretch, but boy howdy. I'm really liking this show and would love to check out the movies (Let's Go Kamen Riders and the Shogun movie currently advertising in the series' intro) if I could.

I agree.

Hey man...it's Metal Gear Solid logic.

That's great if I knew a damn thing about metal gear.

I have got to stop making references that no one gets :lol

Don't feel bad.
That series is so convoluted I thought even understanding it could be listed as a skill on a resume...

Kamen Rider Kiva: King of Hell's Castle

I thought it was pretty good. I really liked Wataru and Otoya's interactions. I wish that they had more backstory on Rey, there wasn't really a motive to his actions. Early on in the movie when Shimura (or however you spell it) first encounters those 2 Legendora...was it relly necessary to zoom in on his crotch and show him wetting his pants? Anyway...yeah...there were a few Den-O references. Look, I like Den-O as much as the next guy, but I feel that they were unnecessary. I think the "Nakeru de" on the chalkboard was the one that was done the best. When Arc turns Wataru into his Dragon form, I wish that they had at least recolored that model. The end fight scene was pretty cool...is Arc Kivat and artificial Kivat? Because his face blew off, the he screamed "GO TO HELL!" Also, what took Wataru so long to use Tatsulot? But yeah, aside from a few nitpicks, I thought it was pretty decent

The Den-O references work better once you see the bonus videos that go along with that movie. The Imagin actually go on an adventure after watching the Kiva Movie. They steal the Go-Ongers' RV and run around the country side, Kamen Rider Arc tries to kill them, they pull off the Go-Onger rollcalls and hilarity ensues :lol And yes Arc Kivat was manufactured based on the specs for the real Kiva.

But I'm sorry I have to completely disagree with you on the movie itself. It was absolutely awful. It had absolutely nothing to to do with Kiva the show aside from using characters from it. The plot was bad, the new characters were pretty terrible, and it deviated so hard from the show that it just killed any interest I might have otherwise had. I loved the show and really wanted to love the movie but it just didn't have alot going for it in my opinion.

OOOs 44: Man Catface is obnoxious in his human form. I mean he's obnoxious all the time, but he's super obnoxious in his fancharacter-style human body. I find it offensive.

Okay, so I have some little problems cropping up that, I dunno if they'll be explained or resolved in the next four episodes or not, but I want to mention it now in case they don't. Eiji's loosing control makes no sense. Or, it does, but the "cure" doesn't. This isn't a major-major problem, since I think I might know what's going on, but anyway: how does Eiji, who's slowly becoming a Greeed, need a desire to stop the transformation? Isn't desire, you know, what makes a Greeed a Greeed? Now, I figured what he's supposed to do is have a desire greater than the cores in his body. Like fight of the core's desire to be whole with his own desire. But these cores aren't sentient, and since they're already in him, it seems like giving them more desire to feed off of is a bad thing. Greeed essentially infect a host (usually with a yummy) then use the person's desire for power. Well, these cores aren't a Greeed, instead turning Eiji into one. So he's becoming a Greeed, a monster powered by desire, and needs his own desire to stop it? And, ignoring that, doesn't Eiji already have a desire? I mean, when that Greeed tried to destroy his dream by pullign it out of his head he pulled out the entire planet. And on a smaller scale, isn't his desire to help his friends desire enough? They say he has no wants, but he's constantly fighting for things. They may be selfless, but selfless desire is still desire. You'd think it'd make for stronger desire, too.

The only thing I can think of is if this is some plot by Birthday Man to make him a Greeed on purpose. Afterall the guy is just all over the place. Nothing about him makes sense, he's got this weird shrine to OOOs and what looks like the plate things the medals were forged in.

Second, and kind of minor but indicitave of OOO's general just not-jiving-well-with-it's-own-rules-iness, is Uva. The guy is reduced to a single core, yet this single core somehow manages to retain his conciousness. Now with Ankh, when he was split up, he became two different entities. Uva was split pretty one-sidedly, and yet he had no personality issues and stayed, mentally, intact in his one core. Why didn't his conciousness manifest in Catface? I mean, wouldn't that be just the best? Catface eats all the cores and finds all his dead friend's popping up on his body with him since all their cores are there? And it's not like Catface had the cores in him all the time. Also, if cores contain conciousness, how come OOO's never had any problems when he had, like, all of one colour? (I guess that's what the driver is for. Sort of like how Drivers in W filtered out the maddening effects of Gaia Memories) What decides where the conciousness stays in the cores? I thought it was cell medals, but Uva was literally just a core and survived.

Well, Catface is dead now anyway (the cat dies first? Offensive) and Maki has his cores. And Maki is a sadfaced dinosaur man. Again, this show is still good, but I feel needlessly convoluted and some stuff doesn't sit right. It's just at first I felt like there as an arc misisng that should've gone into detail about how cores and the mind of Greeed work. Well, there was when Lost Ankh was farting around. But now we're kind of going against that with Uva.

My SIC Tajador should be here tomorrow, so I'm gonna wait to finish the show until then. In the meantime I've tried going back to Agito but... it's good, really, but it's slow as syrup drippig down a backwards conveyor belt. In space. With a fan blowing up at it. (it's a space fan) I'm on episode 11 and have forgotten just about everything in that show, and it's not... grabbing me. The intro's so peepy and awesome and the show is just waking up from two hours of sleep following a twelve hour night shift.

Yeah...him going to high school was kind of..species, and I agree with you that the new characters weren't good, since as I said they should've done more with Rey.

Wait...so...is Kivat-Bat III a robot? I thought the Kivats were one of the demon species (though, it has been a while since I've read the wiki).

So I pressed on with Agito and basically forced myself up to 14. Again, it's not that the show is bad, it's quite good, just slow. But I am still enjoying it. I'm especially intrigued now that Agito himself seems to have been injured.

Also, "Mana" or whatever her name is can't act to save her life. She's so bad it hurts.

But her butt apparently awesome or so says her title as "Best Butt in Japan"...why do I know that?


PS The actress is better known as Naomi in Den-O

See, you're saying things that I don't know what they are. Making me paranoid.

If you've seen any Den-O (including crossovers), you've seen her. She the waitress on the time traveling train.

Rina Akiyama, the actress who played Mana, came back on Kamen Rider Den-O as Naomi, one of the supporting characters. She never really did much, but she still shows up any time the Den-O characters appear in one of the team-up movies.
