Agito Episode 2
Don't you mean who the heck is that guy? Or is the what because of how he just delivered a single kick to a monster and killed it when you didn't seem to even faze it with your advanced weaponry?
Pretty nice opening theme. Like the Kuuga one, I use to have a bit of disliking to it. But after listening to it a couple of times I really warmed up to it. Now I'd say that I quite enjoy it. Not the best theme I've ever heard, but it isn't terrible. Also I find it pretty damn funny how the opening video is pretty much all of them in a motorcycle race.
Well it pretty much means that you guys didn't really test out the weapons that much to see if they would work against the unidentified enemy. Plus while the Scorpion is cool looking, it's a pistol. You'd need something like a shotgun for this type of situation firearm wise. After all, this is (well what I presume at least) a super powered demon. Pistols aren't going to do jack to it.
"Whether or not that's good or bad is up to you."
He's fighting a black letter shaped Pokemon?
So they brought up Kuuga...okay knowing that little memo TV-Asahi made saying that it isn't really a sequel to Kuuga, and how fans are free to make of it as they so please, should I just treat it as Kuuga's sequel? Or are the connections between the two not that many in numbers?
These two aren't on the best of terms are they?
Wait, isn't this the trailer they deploy out in? Do they just sit around in it all day waiting for shit to happen? They seriously can't be given an office or anything? Anyways I do like how they're treating this like an actual case just like they did in Kuuga. Shows that while not the best force to handle these situations, the police and military aren't totally useless in tokusatsu...though that depends on the series. Some of them can be pure awesomeness.
Is Mana fucking psychic or something?
Seriously what the hell is with these guys and putting their victims in trees? This is not the tree from Sleepy Hollow guys!
Can I just say that the professor's house is really cool looking? It's like a combination of your typical Japanese styled house and condos you see here in the states. It's like if the house from the Ju-On series was more pretty looking and more Americanized.
I smell some weird ass mystical shit.
Oh God not this shit again! This is going to be a reoccuring thing isn't it? Dammit Agito, you already have something that annoys me, and it isn't a character, lack of action, or story! It's this fucking annoying whining!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!
You know I don't quite get something. If the monsters can stop the bullets telepathically and destroy them using telepathy as well, why not just turn the bullets around and send them at the person who fired? Probably get rid of that person quicker.
Awwwwww yeah. I've seen reviews of G3's SHF and by far the coolest thing included is the Destroyer. And hot damn does it look even more kick ass in the show. It's like if somebody gave Ash from Evil Dead a suit of armor. All I have to say is bitchin.
So the henshin is pretty much Kuuga's, except he has to hit the sides of the belt? Okay then. I do like the belt a bit more then Kuuga's. I really love that pointed circle theme it has going on. Anyways the henshin like Kuuga's is alright. Don't really get why he has to hit the sides of the belt though.
His weapons come out of his belt Black RX style? Neato.
A new form already? Huh, that was quick. You usually have to wait 5 to 10 episodes for a new form. Storm Form (rhyming is fun) is pretty nice looking. It still has the flaws though of the main suit as I've stated before, but I kinda dig this one more. Mostly because it's blue. The Storm Halberd is pretty wicked looking too.
Come on Hikawa! Kick some monster ass!
Why did that thing explode out of nowhere?
I still don't get this halos of light.
Bad Agito! Bad!
Anyways that's episode two. Not too shabby of an episode to be honest with you all.
There was a small little story here which was nice to see. Though I do put emphasis on the word small. It was mostly just about Hikawa trying to piece together what happened to the one family. I guess towards the second half a second story came in with the new family being picked off, but it didn't come off as important as the one involving Hikawa. As for adding to the main story, it introduced a new form for Agito, and that's pretty much the only important thing I noticed.
As far as the characters go, nothing really developed as far they go in an individual sense. There was a bit of development of the relationship between Hikawa and that other cop, but other than that, development was kinda lacking here. I shouldn't really expect too much though since we're only two episodes in and they still have to establish who is who and what not.
The action once again was decent, but not too impressive. It was nice to have a longer action scene than the one in the first episode, but it still doesn't have me going "Wow that was awesome!" The spear fighting was sort of cool, but it was pretty basic. Kinda sad I haven't seen Hikawa go full kick ass yet though on the enemies considering he has a huge freaking arsenal at his disposal. But I digress.
Episode two was fairly average as far as rider episodes go. It's as good as the first episode, but they haven't left me as impressed other series have (and considering 555 episode 2 is one of the best rider episodes I've ever seen, seems odd that another episode 2 is so lackluster). Obviously it has my attention enough to where I'll keep watching for now, but it really needs to pull me in like other shows have done. If it doesn't, then I don't think Agito will be viewed past episode 5.
