Definately a series I'll keep watching.

One thing worth pointing out (though you probably guessed after a few more episodes), Wataru's whole "allergic to the world" shtick and talking via notes is something weird that he never does for the rest of the show, which I didn't quite get why they dropped it so suddenly. That said, normally, he's less odd and more... moody Den-O. Moody Den-O is my best way of describing Kiva as a whole. It has various elements from Den-O but through the eyes of Inoue.

The best part about her actress being in Wizard is that everyone blindly falls in love with her in that show as well :B

Kiva does have some awesome finishers. I think Saga's may be my absolute favorite, because ignoring the fact that it's tied around their waist, he's basically hanging his enemy with his whip then making them explode. In concept, this is kind of awesome and fitting of a villain Rider. (Spoiler-tagged as to not ruin the surprise?)

As for me, I kinda went nuts yesterday and watched nearly 10 episodes of Agito - I think that's a sign it's keeping my attention, lol;;

Frightening development for Agito, and Gills gets ragdolled every-which-way. Now watching 28 which, going by preview, is a Gills focus. He definitely needs more scenes where he isn't unconscious.

He'll get them. Gills is kind of the butt monkey of Agito, but he eventually stops almost dying every third episode.

Does Wizard count as an organic Rider? Since his power, mana, is from a human (Well...Phantom) source, and he isn't overtly technological.

That's a really good question..

Remember, no matter what questions you have about Wizard, all you need to do is say 'science' dramatically in Japanese and the fandom will clap and throw their panties at you.

I would say that moreso makes him like Kuuga or Agito, something set in... mysticism? Or, just, magic.

Exactly, I love he- I mean that.

But the way she is a coniving person here, and playing with peoples emotions... I need a moment... BUT ITS AIRI! Im good now.

In this episode of Agito... Shouichi plays tennis with a frying pan. Yes really.

Currently, I am on episode 21 of Kamen Rider OOO and episode 2 of Fourze, and when I finish OOO, I intend to start Decade.

I'm loving OOO so far and I'm glad I chose this season to be the first Kamen Rider season I ever watched. It's got me hooked.
