Uh... what?

Bicchy is one of the worst characters of the show. He just turned on everyone without any rhyme or reason for it. It just doesn't make sense and make him look like a spoiled little ****. His brother has had far more development than Bicchy. Not to mention we got to watch Kouta grow into being a hero.

And Gaim is not the best series ever, but it is ONE of the. Very rarely do we have a series that puts this much emphasis on the show. There is not a single filler episode to be had (unless you count the pointless crossovers).

I'd probably rank Gaim my third favourite overall.

Gaim is probably my third favorite as well in all honesty, and it isn't even finished yet. It could stay at 3, it could do down, it could move up. Hopefully by the end it either stays where it currently is or moves up one.

I think it could outclass OOO in my favourites but it ain't touching Wizard, for me.

Probably second favorite if the quality stays where it is right now and the ending is good.

If its gonna beat out my number 1, Blade, its gotta do something amazing and totally logical for both the show and the Kamen Rider series itself, that is also completely unique to Gaim.

For me, I could see it maybe depending on how it ends outclass W, but it (and probably no other series) will top Ryuki for me.

In terms of "the best of the best" of what all I've seen, it's probably in my top 5 and maybe once again, in 3rd place behind W and Agito.

Since i value plot most of all, Gaim is overall my favorite, Agito and Blade being second and third.

The character development in Gaim is pretty odd, Micchy changed drastically and became a different character, Kouta grew up, but still remained the same Kouta. Kaito didn't change at all, but his character is being explained slowly as the show goes on, giving the illusion that he changed, when he didn't.

Eh...Kouta's had several.

Blade is my favorite series, but honsetly, I don't see this beating that out at all.

Right now, my top three favorite series are Blade, W, and Black.

I like Gaim, but I don't see it cracking my top five, personally. Top ten, definitely, but some of the forced humor and intrusive toy shilling do hold it back for me. That said, I'm not giving a final verdict until I see how Urobuchi lands this puppy.
