What are you watching? (Kamen Rider Edition)

ZeoRangerV · 06-19-2013, 05:12 PM

Just finished up Amazon. I still think it lost some of its charm when Garanda was introduced, but overall I really enjoyed the series. A unique Rider and a great cast of side characters (I'm very impressed I didn't feel the urge to strangle Masahiko). Its short length also means that the low-continuity story telling style doesn't get stale either.

I feel bad I didn't vote for Amazon in more rounds of the Rider tournament threads, the guy is literally an animal. A lot of the time he's bleeding before he even transforms. So much blood and limbs getting ripped off.

I never finished the series (Hold laptop had died before I could salvage it and the DL I used for it the first time was gone), but I told you he was awesome.
He was beast. He pretty much lost the Rider tournaments because he was Showa, not because he was a weaker character.

I voted for him a few times, but only after watching the series do I appreciate just how much of a hit he can take and how screwed his opponent is if he comes into contact with them.

I'd suggest re-starting them, but after the legion of Ranger polls we're doing, I think the forum might need a break from all the polls for a little while

Locke · 06-19-2013, 05:37 PM

We should find a way of doing it without polls but I don't really know how.

Nah. That'd fail because, much like KR, every Showa Rider would get eliminated before they get a proper chance because most aren't subbed and the ones that are suffer from such terrible quality (Both in translation and in video) that not many have made it through them.
Hell, I'm still astounded by how many Heisei series are still incomplete or just unsubbed entirely.

There hasn't been a consistent group subbing Sentai, so the "Ultimate Sentai Team" would be a Zyuranger, a Gokaiger, a Jetman, a Dekaranger, a Shinkenger, and, maybe, a Gekiranger or Dairanger, if left to be decided by this forum.

Blade 13
Okay, so Shades is named Isaka. Gotta remember that. And the Category Aces search for suitable candidates to obtain their power? Hmm...I wonder who it is. Maybe that guy they showed several times throughout the episode? ...Nah.

Continued exposure to that mind control stuff will eventually kill Tachibana. Figured as much. Hajime seems...mildly more amicable than the last time he saw Kenzaki. Guess he's cooling off. ...But probably not. But hey, Tachibana vs Hajime! Pretty cool.

I also like the triple card usage. Especially Tachibana's with the burning rider kick x2.

Matrixbeast · 06-19-2013, 06:01 PM

Oh, Isaka. That who arc between him and Tachibana was great.
