[SPLIT LIP]

The thing with Agito is, my personal feelings aside, I know just from reading your opinion of Kuuga that you wouldn't like it because Agito really is just more of that.

Agito, however, has the crutch of the two secondary riders, but only one is any good. No joke, Gills spends most of his time screaming and glaring. He's supposed to have this deep story but spends most of his time just kind of hanging around. It's like he's got this good story, but they cut it up and space it out so thin you don't get to appreciate it, and G3, while better, is largely ineffectual and not fun to watch because of how.... sucky he is until his upgrade. And to top it off, the cop drama is basically episode after episode of some smug asshole twisting events to make it seem like the G3 team sucks in the eyes of the police chief, with them sometime sgetting a few wins. But really it comes across as two children begging for a parent's attention.

Also Agito had one song for the fight scenes for about 40 episodes of it's 49 episode run. It REALLY made the fights feel generic and samey, which considering for, again, about 40 episodes he only had three forms plus a seldom seen combined form, made the fights barely worth the time to watch.

Even though I'm only three eps in, I much prefer Ryuki. It's the series following Agito, but could not be more different. The main rider is a pretty active dude, he's courageous, takes the rider stuff seriously, (in and out of the suit) and fights even when the odds are against him. The secondary characters are intriguing and the plot is really unique so far. All that from three episodes.
