Eh. If the translation was the same, then I'm gonna stick with O-T just because they get it out faster...

But it wasn't the same. OT keeps using Wizard when Nihon uses Mage to describe a general term for a magic user. I prefer the Nihon version. I don't think it really makes sense to use wizard when the word is spoken in English in show to refer to the character Wizard. It makes for quite a bit of confusion much like OT's use of King instead of Oh on Gobuster for the Gobuster-Oh. With the upcoming Gobuster King combination it makes things confusing. I feel like using the term wizard could potentially makes things confusing as well.

Eh. Just watch for capitalization on the subs and listen to what they're saying.
It doesn't really bug me, personally.

The biggest difference was the use for Mahouski. OT used the word wizard while Nihon used mage. Also, Nihon kept the subs Hii whereas OT translated it to Fire. Other than that, like I said, it was pretty much the same.

I've got both set up to download, and I'll just watch whichever version I have when I go to watch it.

Hm...yeah I guess he hind of is...someone draw Haruto with a hollow mask!

So I got around to watching the first episode yesterday. A really solid first episode. Haruto might be the arrogant main Rider archtype, but unlike Tendou or Tsukasa, he isn't insufferable. He's got some nice humor to him as well like him grabbing his bag of donuts that he left behind. Koyomi is adoreable and that's about all I can say based on one episode. Since she seems to be the enemy detector for the series, she'll definitely provide help. Rinko handled herself pretty well given the situation. Hopefully she'll be sticking around and helping out. As for Wizard, really enjoyed the suit and the fighting style. And I'll probably enjoy the Phantoms a lot because I love Paranoia Fuel enemies in my Toku. They are like the Worms from Kabuto, minus the brainless beastiality that almost all of them had. Lastly, Shabadobe Touch Henshin~!
