Just watched the first two episodes of Kiva.
I..am so confused. I don't need stuff spoon-fed to me, but the show just gave no real information on anything. Like what the hell was with the giant dragon building eating the shattered Fangires? Just...nothing seems to have had any explanations. I'm guessing things start making sense eventually? I really like the show itself so far, I love the mood, I love the music (especially all the violins), it has a very classical gothic feel to it. And so fire I am really liking most of the designs (save for that horse dude...).

No, no, no, no, NO! How many times must I tell you people? That was just Libra being a troll.

Good to know it's not just me missing something then. At least I like the show well enough to deal.

I'm watching the Kamen Rider Decade Musical. Why, when I could watch three more episodes of Blade instead? Because it's a Saturday night and something this pathetic is fitting to that.
The prisoners' Listen Up song was pretty cool, though. |

I like that one song that goes "HENSHIN! Kamen ridaaaaaaaah!" But poor Kuuga, and Momotaros being stupid enough to get captured first? Seems about right.

Well, just finished Fourze. First Kamen Rider series I've watched to completion (since Wizard is still ongoing). Have to say I really enjoyed the ride. I can see why some people may not like the more goofy, lighthearted tone the series had, they really pushed the whole "power of friendship" thing, but to me that was part of the charm. Gentarou was a likeable lead, the supporting cast was great, I really liked the villains. Show wasn't perfect by any means. I'm not sure how I feel about how it all ended, namely how they brought Kengo back, I figured they were going to, and it just really cheapened his death and the emotional impact from that and his final letter. I also really don't like how quickly we got around to finding all the Horoscopes, you can tell they had to rush through that as the series was nearing its conclusion by the time we get to the real meat of the plot. I liked how the Zodiarts were introduced prior to that, we got some time to build them up, get to know the Switcher and their motivation, and when they had the potential to evolve passed Last One (oh how I missed hearing that menacing voice) it was an "oh shit" moment. But towards the end it was like, "Oh yeah this person is a Horoscope. They just need to press the Zodiart switch and they're good to go". Still, relatively minor complaints.
Not sure if I like it or Wizard more to be honest. I like Wizard for different reasons than I like Fourze. Anyways, as I said I've started watching Kiva. I'm only a couple of episodes in, and while I've enjoyed the little bits I've seen, and I'm sure as a whole I will enjoy the series, I can't say I like the idea of never having anything really explained. Don't spoon feed me everything, but for fuck's sake, give me something. Also will be starting Ryuki, probably sometime tomorrow. That should be good. I like the concept (it's like a Kamen Rider tournament deal, right? I love shit like that), and hearing that it's quite a dark series has me very interested coming off what was in-arguably a fun, lighthearted show.

I'm at episode 19 of Ryuki. I really liked what Ouja did to Gai in this episode. Plus six Riders in one episode... 'nuff said.
