I went ahead and looked it up and, yes, Kabuto's first villain was based on a spider as well.

So if this pattern does hold up, maybe Kabuto will be the next uploaded installment. Which would be kinda dope because January 29th is the 15th anniversary of Kamen Rider Kabuto episode 1.

It doesn't have to be that most rider series start with a spider villain, just that of all the first villains, a spider is the most common.

So first they do the first two episodes of Kamen Rider, then they do episode 1 of Ryuki, next they jump back twenty years to Amazon, and now they go back to the second episode of Ryuki. This is madness!

Ah I see, they might be spreading the episodes out that way there's something for everybody each week.

So we might get Amazon Episode 2 tomorrow. Or if we don't then we might have hit something. In that, we get a two parter on Friday's, and then a singular episode starter on Saturday.

here we go; Count Zero...

A truly confounding release!

Honshin!

I give them serious props for remembering to spell Agito with an "Ω".

(That also reminds me of how embarrassingly long it took to realize the joke is that the A is an alpha, but that's neither here nor there.)

Gosh, I forgot how this show takes 35 episodes before it introduces the main character. :p

Having said that, watching this again, I was once more struck by how the world-building in this opening episode is just top notch. It's also great seeing Akiyama Rina at the height of her powers, and even though I've never really liked "Prototype Shinji," I think there's so much going on in this single episode that it's easier to side-step that at least for 20 minutes or so.
