I've wondered about that before, because there certainly are episodes that are a huge drag, but I have so much love for the show, it must be like you said, the episodes that are good, are REALLY good. It has so much heart and feeling that it resonates with me.

Which, is also why I think Fourze was a REALLY great show, and I do not understand it when people were comparing it to Wizard over the last few pages, as being a weaker show. To me, Fourze was amazing, up with Den-O and W as some of the best KR I've seen.

My only complaint with Fourze is that there wasn't really any huge negative consequences to those that used the switches, or from the damage they caused, except in like three cases. We got the one kid that was afraid to go back to school because he knew he couldn't trust himself to not seek out another switch, and then in the end, some of the Horoscopes actually physically died, while most of them didn't. And again, that's one of the things that works for me with Kuuga, is that the mosters ARE impacting the world around them, regular people are affected, people die.

And Kuuga is even responsible for it in part. Of course, it's not like he can stop fighting, he has to, but now his finishers can even endanger people?
