I can't remember now if this was something from 2011 or 2012, but I LOVED Megamax. After the mediocre display that was Movie War Core, I was so jazzed to watch Megamax be awesome scene after awesome scene. Some folks just do not like Fourze's story in it but I thought it was good. Either way it does give you the lovely quote; "There's only two moments when a man can cry; When your wallet gets stolen, or when a girl dumps you. What happens when she's an alien??" - Fantastic action, probably the best use of the Showa Riders in recent years (given that they're usually barely speaking in any of their appearances), and you get some awesome new suits all over the place that I'd like to own figures of. Come ooooon Aqua...

Incidentally, if that movie came out on DVD in 2011, then a close second would be the first two-parter for Kamen Rider Wizard, episodes 2 and 3. I think this may be my favorite arc right now. It really does a nice job of introducing Shunpei's character, making you grow to like him for his ambition, his hopes, his dreams... then it's all crushed. He's made to set fire to the book that he believed in all of his life. Watching it play out that way kind of made me feel bad for the poor guy. That's when I knew I was gonna love this show, when it was able to make me care that quickly. It didn't really take me long to grow to like any of the characters, really. This arc even made me like Wajima more, since episode 1 didn't really have a whole lot of screentime for him.

Looking forward to seeing how the contest goes. Good luck everyone!
