Finally got round to finishing Kabuto just need to watch the movie but i understand its a separate universe so i think I'm good to judge the series...

For anyone that remembers from TFW, i started kabuto about 4 months ago and have had a very on off relationship with it. It's not that it was terrible, it just wasn't too good. I found it slow and dull at first, then when the bee and drake turned up and we started to get more riders i found it really picked up. But after the whole Tsurugi reveal it got a little stale again. I wasn't sure if i was supposed to feel sorry for the worm or hate them. It kind of reminded me of the fangire but they at least got eliminated if they didn't behave the way they should, worm didn't have that fear though. And that big twist at the end didn't help as it kind of showed the worm as the good guys. It also had a habit of making anyone you cared about into a worm. And Tendou is a huge jerk, he can kill Arata's brother but no one can touch his sister? Granted he didn't know about Hiyori being his sister at first

Still having said that, i really liked him for the most part. He just seems to swing from a jerk with his heart in the right place to complete and utter jerk who gives a damn about no one but himself. Arata was the better hero but he was oblivious most of the time. Daisuke was interesting as he had no real desire to be a hero or a rider, so god knows why he was chosen, maybe the drake zecter was lazy? Tsurugi was alright, i just wish they hadn't spaced his story out so much. The two the bee guys who become kick hopper and punch hopper... yeah i don't give a damn about them =p completely random and unnecessary in my eyes and had the worst suits.

Overall i really like the rider designs alot, hyper kabuto just looks awesome, and whilst it didn't quite keep it together all the time it was still a better overall package then decade so my rider ranks look like this now:

W
Kiva
Den-O
OOO
Kabuto
Decade

Next up is ryuki which i've been looking forward to for a while now =)
