Before I say anything else, I should probably go ahead and cover a few more things about the thread that didn't go anywhere in the intro, because they're important, but also maybe not that important?
-
The episode posts are going up weekly for the time being, with each episode pair being a single post.
There will probably also be some bigger gaps, because for a few reasons, even that pace seems like it'll be hard for me to keep up. I'll say right now you shouldn't expect this thread to hit Wizard's finale before Gavv ends. Honestly, I'd rather take this slow anyway! More time to just really
soak in
Wizard, both for me writing about it, and for anyone reading along who maybe also finds trouble keeping up with these things.
-
I'm only concerned with the 51 episodes of the main show right now.
For pretty much the same reasons as that first thing. Even though Wizard comes from an age where there's a lot more side projects than back in Kuuga, I'm taking the same approach of leaving all that stuff (including episodes 52 and 53) completely off to the side as a sort of bonus addendum to be covered after the long nap I'll probably want by the time I'm finished writing about just the series proper.
- In the absence of some amazingly definitive subs from Shout or anything of that sort, translations for episode titles and terms and whatnot are basically going to be a mishmash of whatever I feel like going with, rather than any particular fansub or other source. ご了承ください

I appreciate you popping in here at all!

It's not like every story would benefit from being structured the same way, but I definitely think it's an approach that benefitted all of those other shows as well. LuPat especially for me, since I also first watched that premiere when it was new, and just like with Wizard, I can still vividly recall how immediately the show put me on its side with the insane flashiness of its action.

Hey, like I said at the start -- there's a reason this is a thread and not a blog!
I was honestly surprised I didn't end up mentioning that, because it really is the cherry on top for that intro. Also another fresh spin on a similar beat Shinkenger did with its logo!

Honestly, given the kind of themes this show covers, that's maybe the most
Wizard
possible reason to not rewatch Wizard?
