Ryuki's first quarter wasn't the greatest but it didn't leave me unengaged like these first 10 episodes did.

I really love Dragon Knight, a lot of people here give it shit, because it's an adaptation or something but I think that they need to kind of accept that. Yeah Dragon Knight is a pretty generic story of good vs evil, but compared to a lot of Power Rangers seasons, it's allowed to approach it in a maturer way, that carries a lot more weight with the punches.

And comparing it to Ryuki is largely a null point, as a) it only uses the same fight footage and b) even if it was a straight adaptation (it isn't), you just can't do the kind of things Japan can do in American programming.

Plus by all regards it makes better use of a lot of the characters, especially the movie Riders.

I'm not saying you can't hate it - but most of the reasons I've seen for people disliking this season have been frankly, crap.
