Ohhhhhhhh yeahhhh. I forgot about that one too. I actually have the candy toy of Doran, the Ixa tank, and the baby castle.

Watched episodes 26 and 27 of X Rider this morning, still loving it.

Episode 26 is the Starfish Hitler one, for those of you who were wondering. It's actually a really nice costume - probably the best of the King Dark era kaijin so far (although I still vastly prefer the Greco-Roman designs from the first part of the show). I was actually more amused by the crazy hippie scientist, though - at least until it was revealed to just be a disguise.

Episode 27 is a clip show. Not of X itself, but of all the Rider shows up to that point. Aside from a cute framing device it would have been completely forgettable except for one thing: this episode featured the return of Kazami Shiro, Kamen Rider V3. It was really cool seeing him team up with Keisuke, including a nice double henshin scene. It was also nice that his return felt much less random than Hongo and Ichimonji's return in V3.

On episode 27 of Kamen Rider W.

I f***ing hate the story line with the doll, little girl and Akiko. It had a sympathetic end, but the whole two parter was basically the most annoying and useless character in the show yelling and screaming her ass off over a dead little girl. Shotarou and Terui didn't even get to kick much ass because of the bitchiness of Akiko stopping them from attacking puppet master.

I must be like the only person who watched W and didn't hate Akiko but did find the show itself to be bland and boring

I started out hating her, but as soon as Terui came in and balanced everything out she grew on me.

I'm aboard this bandwagon also. Shotarou was the saving grace of the entire series for me. Had he not been a great character to follow, I would have given up the series. Not that I hated Phillip or Akiko, I just didn't care enough about them.

Just watched episode 28 of X, wherein a young boy is stripped to the waist and tortured with hot coals before being strapped onto a table with a circular saw closing in on his groin. This show is fucking dark, man.

Oh man. So, episode 8 of Kiva & I just say the scene with the Baby-Giant-Dragon-Castle-Thing. This is definitely on my list of "most ridiculous but utterly awesome Kamen Rider moments", right after Wizards "Dragon-Boot Rider Kick". I mean, it was awesome enough when he summoned the Dragon Castle to fight the other giant thing, but then the Baby Castle comes, mounts itself on top it, converts its towers into missile launchers & to top it all off, Kiva gets propelled by the castles fireball to deliver a giant flaming Rider Kick & OH MY GOD THAT WAS AMAZING.

I don't even care that it came out of nowhere & I'm never gonna see an explanation for anything that happened. I'm just too blown away.

EDIT: Oh, BTW, there was a scene where Shizuka was listening in on Wataru & Megumi, & Kivat was flying around but she didn't really acknowledge him. So does she know Wataru is Kiva? Or is she just aware of Kivats existence? If so how the hell did Wataru explain that one?
