I don't know what happened but I'll happily take it.

I should also note it's not quite just those series, either. He's responsible for almost the entirety of a certain character in Kabuto, and he had a substantial effect on Ryuki. He also penned all the movies before Kabuto's, and he took over Hibiki after Episode 29 in what is regarded as a, um... ahem. Not generally liked production thing.

It should go without saying, Inoue is a -massive- part of pre-W Heisei Rider. You'll either learn to love him or hate him.

I'll try not to hold these episodes against those shows, then. I remember thinking that the Nobunaga OOO movie was pleasantly bonkers, so, I don't know, maybe he wrote these two Kuuga episodes on a bad day? Maybe he gets better? Maybe I'll forget these episodes happened and not feel this visceral rage during those other shows? Who can say!

I've never looked up the writer(s) behind Kuuga before because all the individual stories were mostly cohesive in tone with each other, but I wouldn't have been surprised if the people on that boat also brought aboard their babies and puppies.

Maybe it's just my subs (could be a recent scrub), but the boat captain does mention that everyone onboard the boat was one day from retirement.
