Probably. I know that the TVN Kyoryuger subs just translate Nossan's dialogue straight and put a translator's note at the top of the page. It pretty effectively kills all of the puns. I can't even imagine what their Akibaranger subs look like.

Yeah it seems kinda insane that I'm half way through the series and only five have been introduced so far, with one not even being seen yet, just mentioned. As cool as Libra and Virgo are as well, Cancer has achieved more than them so far and was only just introduced...

I'm just glad OT tries to localise Cancer's puns, I dread to think how much I'd struggle if they did straight translations like TVN.

Wow episode 28 of Fourze was a great episode for both Ryusei and Cancer, it was rushed and largely ruined by being played for gags but Cancer actually killed almost the entire Rider Club, including Fourze himself. Insane! I love the way Libra tricked Virgo into sending Cancer into the Dark Nebula as well. Libra and Virgo may not do a lot but whenever they do do something it is awesome.

Also sadly Meteor's upgrade form was kinda...meh, it was basically a pallet swap with a much less interesting helmet, and a beyblade. It was flashy and everything, sure, but I actually think the base form is much more interesting, along with how it is used. I hope he still uses the base form and his sweet Bruce Lee skills.

Plus it was badly filmed, so awkwardly framed and so many shots were out of focus or tracked weird.
