Maybe. But not here.

If you look back over the thread - not that you're going too - it seems you're the only person who's watched it recently and come out glowing with praise. And rightly so, every show has flaws, few have as many crippling ones as Kuuga does.

And I will never understand how people can hate Haruto and love Godai, Godai is everything the haters claim Haruto to be.

Which is weird because I can't get into Jetman. Though I will say I love Kamen Rider X and Battle Fever J which are older than Jetman and I think are very well done shows.

Anyways it is difficult to compare the new stuff to the older stuff sometimes, but I will say I enjoy the Storytelling structure of the older Heisei Era stuff to the Neo-Heisei era. Gaim feels more like the older Heisei era honestly.

Kuuga, is a very good show, and to be honest I watched the first 4 episodes and it put me to sleep. I watched episode 5 months later, and absolutely got hooked with Yuusuke, well I also got hooked with Faiz the same time and watched them both together. I thought both of them were amazing shows that did a lot of things well. Yuusuke working with the Police was something very different and Ichijou is just awesome. I liked how everyone was working together to try and help Yuusuke and stop the Grongi. I like how the threat of the Grongi actually affected the real world and that there was so much fear around. I liked how Yuusuke trained himself to defeat enemies and get better. I love that he used his Gentleness, his kindness to reach his final form not anger and that he didn't have to succumb to that to beat the Grongi. Personally the show has had an affect myself too because I thumbs up all the time because of it.

Gaim on the other hand is taking everything that Kamen Rider has ever done well and crammed it into one show so far, Gaim is very hard to compare to any show before it.

Also about Haruto, I have only seen him in movies and the first episode of Wizard, I found him to be amazing too, especially being about Hope. Probably good and bad Yuusuke and Haruto are a lot a like.


So I've defended Kiva, and now Kuuga lol. Anyone want to debate about Agito, Blade Kabuto, Faiz or Decade next? lol
