More Kuuga. 3 and 4.
Stuff is going on, but I still don't know why. Part of the mystery, fine. Fine.
We're introduced to a group of 4 monsters that gathered because of a 5th, rose based monster's petals. I don't know why.
One of them, cheetah themed, perhaps, goes on a rampage...Because. She bites the dust and Kuuga gives a thumbs up.
I don't want to sound overly negative or cynical, but by having the villains be completely unintelligible, I learn of the story at the same rate as our heroes. That's all well and good, right?
Wrong. Because by giving the villains scenes where they talk with one another in a made up language with no subtitles or context, it's a waste of time. It's only about 2 minutes worth of an episode, so it's not a big chunk, but I feel like it's pointless. Why am I watching scenes that intentionally made for the audience to not understand? It's not advancing the story.
"Kuuga is a mystery-thriller most. Emphasis on the mystery"
I am not enjoying the parts with the Grongi. I seriously hate any scene where they speak.
Anyway, I'm glad Kuuga straight tells the detective who he is, so there isn't a forced mystery aspect there. I also enjoy their relationship, with the detective trying to do his job to the best of his ability, but eventually relents and lets Kuuga fight.
It was nice to see the bike get some love, too. Current series only show them off in chases, but it was pretty interesting to see a legit fight involving the bike. Wasn't anything to write home about, but still enjoyable.
