Out of seeing 6 series in total and having 2 in the middle, it's kind of hard not to make it look like W and Ryuki aren't good. Because they are.

I suppose. I never really could get into OOO myself so seeing it above my top 2 just felt odd to me hahaha.

Still need to get around to Blade. I wanted to partake in the LWW for it, but I was busy watching something else at the time I believe.

Edit: Just finished Episode 3 of Kabuto.

Not too much happened this episode. We learned a little bit more backstory and a touch more about Zect, and a few plot threads are starting to develop (such as this Ryou guy that Kagami keeps shouting about/seeing).

I..actually kinda like Tendou. I think that may not be the popular opinion from what I gather. He's kinda like if Kitaoka's character was done wrong, but at the same time in a way I like that about him too. I dunno.

Glad we're finally starting to see some different designs for the worm. And I thought the use of clock up in this episode was a bit more interesting than the last, with them fighting around the amusement park and seeing the effects when the clock up is over. I also got a bit of a chuckle out of Kagami's line about them using the clock up again after the first ended.

Tendou does seem to be able to take out the worm pretty easily though, I mean he really just had to land a rider kick and that was it. It just made it seem a bit of a no effort affair. I'm sure once other riders and threats are introduced that things will hopefully change a bit in that regard though.

So yeah. So far the season is off to an alright start. I'm certainly interested enough to keep watching.

So is it true Hibiki's video quality is shit? Has no other group taken over and attempted to release higher quality rips? I'm looking for a new show once Goseiger has finished but seeing comments on Hibiki like 'I literally cannot tell what is going on' really puts me off.

It's not great, no. A little better than the Blade fansubs, though, and definitely a step up from the original Faiz and Dekaranger subs. KITSubs was working on a new sub with dvd rips, but that project died when they lost the raws in the great filesharing apocalypse of 2012. I assume the raws have gotten back out there again, but KIT has a lot on its plate now and their main guy is really busy with life stuff.

Blade's video quality was pure shit, but I could at least tell what was going on. So I guess I'll give Hibiki a chance.

The first episode, the first couple scenes, are a little.... odd.

It's mostly clear, but there are some places early on where the low resolution and unique cinematography really don't work together. If you can still find them, I'd say start with the two redone KITSubs episodes, then switch to TVN.

I can find KITsubs page with Hibiki on it, but no download links.

Yeah, when scenes are given that blurry 'humid" filter, the low quality REALLy makes it look old.

Hibiki is super different, but that's, I think, what makes it stand out in a good way.

I sort of agree, but when watching it on a big HD tv the shitty resolution becomes much clearer.
