For a show that has aged so well, there are moments of real shittiness. I will never understand why toku always seems to edit in CGI whips, even though a real prop exists, it always looks terrible. Then again a LOT of the Orphenoch powers look terrible, which is surprising considering how cool the exceed charges look but then to some degree lessso once you see Kaixa's bike abomination.

Worst of all though are the henshins, the actual subtle effect is neat, less so is the fact they never seem to be able to match the actors up properly.

I think they use CG whips for the same reason that they use dull swords, for safety reasons over anything else.

Episode 6 of Fair

Another good episode. We get another new Orphenoc that, thankfully, looks to be sticking around. Some nice characterization. Love the moments between our main vast, they interact so well and it gives the show some nice humor that feels believable.

Still not much added to the overarching plot, but we're using this time to build the characters so I can forgive it.

Also liked Takumi having his Henson sorta interrupted when the phone got knocked away. Nice bit of realism.

Not yet bro, was waiting for that first post W movie to finish downloading but these Over Time movie torrents download like SHIT. I've been leaving my PC on over night and it's still at like sixty percent, whereas like forty other movies have finished at the same time and they're also like ten times the size.

Surely if a thick whip cracks against a thick rubber suit, no one is gonna get hurt?

You never know? *Shrugs*
While I'm one to think that some safety practices are a bit much, I can understand not using real weapons.

Then again, I'm often baffled by it all. How do they do the explosions on the costumes? And how do they never set fire to everything?

The suit explosions are usually "more bark than bite." They look big, and may startle, but those kinds of teeny fire crackers could probably go off on skin and not hurt.

Though the BIG explosions I always wonder. Those massive fireballs all around the character.

I'm on W37 right now; and I'm thoroughly impressed by this series so far. I feel that there are absolutely NO wasted episodes in W at ALL. The Weather Memory saga was a thriller and it gets even better with the budding reveal of Philip's past. SO looking forward to the finish of this series. Planning on watching OOO after this and an old school KR after that, any recommendations of which old school KR I should go for?

Black or Ryuki get my vote.

If you look really close, most of the fires look added in post...as for the massive fireballs? I have no idea.
