Agreed. I had fun watching Black but it doesn't really do a whole lot of story. I mean there's Shadow Moon but... still nothing like Heisei does things.

still think it's a shame that Wizard ended up the way it did - the suit is in my top 5 easily.

The suits and the action are the best thing about Wizard - I enjoyed both. But it's hard watching Wizard when the 5 minutes of action every episode is the only thing you can look forward to.

how does it compare to Ghost so far?

Drive is much better than Ghost IMO. Both suffer from terrible slapstick comedy and annoying side characters, but I like Drive better. Shinnosuke and his gang are much more interesting than Takeru and co., who are all very bland. Like, Alain got some cool development lately, but I never really felt invested with anything Takeru or Makoto were doing.

Meanwhile in Drive, Shinnosuke got the thing with his dad and the relationship with Mr. Belt, Gou got the thing with Dr. Banno I won't spoil and Chase has some really good stuff going on too.

And the SCU... well at least they have some strong episodes. Ghost has Onari.

I'm not crazy about either show, but I think Drive is better. And OOO and W are much better than Drive and Ghost.
