Finished Kabuto on my commute.

For a show I didn't really care all that much about, I thought the last handful of episodes were pretty strong and I found the finale satisfying. I don't have much else to say about it besides that.

One thing that did confuse me is Dark Kabuto. I'd seen people say that he didn't make sense, but honestly I thought it was pretty straightforward. Definitely a misused and honestly unnecessary character, though.

Also, honestly pretty surprised that Kageyama actually became kind of sympathetic after becoming Punch Hopper? It was pretty surprising. Like, I hated the fucker on account of him being just the worst character. But once he turns into a dumb loser (which he was all along don't get me wrong, but you know what I mean. The Hopper stuff is just the dumbest) he becomes a lot less hateable. The end was actually pretty impactful for something I knew would happen and that involved one of my least favorite characters. So that's something.

Still gotta watch God Speed Love. I'll get to it.

But yeah. I still think the series is mostly just dumb shit happening because dumb people do dumb things. But I'd let it slide by with a shaky 6/10 for at least having a decent enough finish.

Anyway.

Having finished these two series today, I only have 7 left to watch: V3, Hibiki, Den-O, Decade, W, OOO, and Fourze. 8 counting Dragon Knight. I had some plans regarding the order in which I was gonna be watching them, but Heisei Generations Final has thrown those plans out the window. I want to actually be familiar with the returning characters when that becomes available to watch, so I'm gonna sort of mad-rush through the remaining Heisei series I have to the best of my abilities. I intended to watch V3 soon, but I guess it can wait until the end.

Should be starting Hibiki soon. I'm looking forward to approximately 60% of it.
