[Switchblade]

Watched a couple more episodes of Boukenger. Continuing to really enjoy it. After coming off of Zyuranger it's really nice to see a cast of dynamic characters with different personalities again, even if one of them is insufferably annoying (is Natsuki going to talk in third person for the entire damn series?). I find it kind of odd that I find Natsuki almost unbearable, but at the same time I'm really liking Shizuka of the Wind already. I guess there's some kind of vague line that separates the amusing genki girls from the obnoxious ones for me - Umeko and Shizuka are on one side, Natsuki on the other. I guess I can thank Boukenger for illustrating that for me so clearly.

Also, I can already tell that the ninja faction is going to bring out the worst in TV-Nihon. Sigh no jutsu.
