W's was better, which by the way is episode 48 not 49.

That makes sense. you can say it was better, but how is it better if it's not the real ending.....

Point taken.

[Den-O]

And it wasn't better anyway since OOO was a much better series overall.

That's my personal opinion however

I'll always be biased towards W as it was my first rider series. And if anyone calls bullshit on that, Saa, omae no tsumi o kazoero!

Happy birthday To me!

Honestly that ending, while dissapointed that the final fight was a big ol' CGI fest inside a silly giant cube thing, was fantastic. Puts the show on the same level as Double for me. (though I didn't blubber like a baby. But my mother being in the room while I watched it may have had something to do with that discretion)

I think the overall plot was wrapped up tremendously, however Birthday Man's ultimate scheme seemed... forced. Not dick-in-a-cheerio forced, but cat-into-a-crate-for-a-vet-appointment forced. It worked and it all worked out in the end, but it was a bit hard to accept. Frankly I just don't understand why he waited so long. Ankh's farewell was touching and somber, but once again this core-to-conciouness thing eludes me. I thought it was great to have Eiji use his core that contained his mind for the combo, effectively makign the two into one. But that one medal holding the mind thing just doesn't gel. So, if there is a single core in a greed that holds their conciousness, how did Lost Ankh exist? If only one core holds the mind, where did Lost Ankh's come from, and why did none of the other Greeed do the same? (they were all seperated from their cores, sometimes where literally all their other cores were togetehr except the conciouness) This is really my only true, inexcusable nitpick of the show, and it really just makes Lost Ankh seem redundant, but it's minor in the grand scheme and forgettable altogether considering how neat and tidy the ending was. I only wish the show had a proper epilogue instead of cheesy-peace-sign-photo-barrage (seriously Japan, does the peace sign mean something different to you or are you guys just really into peace?) musical. BUT it was set to the intro music which rocked, and Tajador's epic theme returned in the final fight, too.

I give this show 3 out of 3. Tomorrow I continue Agito, then probably Den-O, then who knows, maybe the next rider series after Wizard will be the best yet and totally be my thing?

Cool! So wold you say it's beter than Double? Or is Double still your favorite?

Decade was my first completed, and we all know what I thought of that series

[Den-O]

W was, I believe, my second series so I don't have that whole first experience angle working for me. I like it but I did find myself to be very bored for a large portion of the series. OOO on the other hand was enjoyable through out. Even during the slow mid section.

[SideswipePrime]

I'm kind of biased towards Fourze, as it was my first completed...even though Den-O dethroned it as my favorite, and I'm not sure if I like Kiva more than Forze or not...they both have their strong and weak points.

[Matrixbeast]

I would personally place Fourze above Kiva. While Kiva isn't as bad as Switchblade believes, I do think Kiva's flaws are a bit too much to swallow at times, compared to Fourze's.
