Anyway, while it's nice to heed the opinions everyone has to present, only you can make the call on how you view a series. If you thought Agito was nice, why not continue until it reaches that same "Bore" point it did for Split?

When it comes to like four, fifty episode series, I haven't really got the time to be a free spirit about it which is why I only gave each series one episode to impress me, whereas I'd usually give it more and although I may find out I disagree with your incite, like how I love Wizard and you said it was boring, I haven't got the time to watch like half a show to turn round and say, 'yeah that was boring, just like you said'. If you get me.

The plot is amazingly pretentious. It's a bore fest. No kidding, there's literally at least a dozen episodes where nothing actually happens.

I think the show's biggets problem is it's not enough plot to fill 49 episodes. Seriously, the story could fit into about 35 and be way the hell more streamlined, though that wouldn't help certain plot elements from being under-developed.

Also, it's a rather... irritating series. The camera angles, the obnoxious filters, the two fucking pieces of music for the entire show, and just the editting and scene pacing is just kind of annoying.

I try to refrane from calling too much stuff actually awful, but Agito is massively underwehlming. Even going in, ignoring the hype, it's just boring. Again, it's a poorly concieved mystery. It's like if you're playing clue and someone threw all the answer cards in the trash and you didn't find them for two days. That's not really a mystery.

I think you'd like Kabuto more. I, personally, hated it. I couldn't stand Tento Squeegy, or really anyone, to the point where even the cool suits couldn't keep me. But since you're in the market for action first, I'd say give it a shot.

I'm trying to think what he'd like, though. I hated Kabuto becuse I was looking for something he isn't. He likes focus on well-paced and relevant action, which Agito wasn't very good at. I think he'd like it even less than me. Granted, these are just my recommendations. I'm not saying don't/do this or this. Kabuto may be better for that.

That was a hilarious read! But yeah, deffo gonna avoid Agito now, if Kabuto is well paced and has relevant action then that sounds perfect to me.

What I will say is I have noticed in a lot of these Rider series, they are HORRIBLY put together. Like tacky suit designs aside, a lot of the cinematography is like someone stuck the camera on a bit of rope and swung it violently around. With extreme over editing so it looks like a shitty music video from the 90s.
