[Switchblade]

My stance on Wizard is that it's fine. I love Haruto - one of my favorite main Riders from the era. I like Mayu and the part where she didn't die. I think the plot had some really good ideas and Fueki's plan made for an interesting final act. I also think a lot of it misfired. Losing Koyomi's actress from full-time duty badly affected the main plot, Shunpei's antics hurt the overall tone, and the show really suffered from the Den-O structure officially getting overplayed. I liked what it was trying to do, but a lot of it fell flat for me.

Ghost (surprise, I have negative things to say about Ghost!) was much more intrinsically flawed. The show's pacing was a disaster (burned through the 99 days in 10 episodes and then had to hit the first reset button) and the plot really fell apart by the end (seriously, what the hell was the point of bringing in the twins from the net videos, especially when they didn't do anything?). Ignoring even it worst and most obnoxious element (Onari), the show had far bigger problems than just feeling repetitive and underwhelming.
