We're finally here, huh? Honestly I'm still not over you getting as far as Blade, so starting a Kabuto thread still absolutely has me in a "huh, what?!" frame of mind!

Kabuto... not a series I have an awfully large amount of good memories with, but the ones that are good really stick, and I have to agree about the fight scenes. Wonderfully unique sense of style; that's what people often praise Wizard for, but for me Kabuto is the season all about that. It's always doing something creative with Clock Up and all its physical elements, and the sound design associated with it is incredibly iconic. |

Kabuto will be a really fun one for me, because it's long been my Least Favorite Heisei Rider Show By Default. It's not that I consider it the worst or anything, it just hasn't left a huge impact on me, despite the cool designs still being the talk of the town when I was getting into Rider, and very much up my alley as someone who loves both insect-themed Riders AND heroes that go real fast. It's just some weird personal thing I can't explain logically, but what I remember the most about watching Kabuto was that I did it during Wizard in a period where I remember legitimately wondering if my recent interest in tokusatsu was starting to wane. Which is hilarious to think about in retrospect, when I later decided Wizard was my favorite Rider show and am still so into this franchise years later I've written tens of thousands of words about why Kuuga is the bomb – but at that moment, coming off of a year of constant excitement with Fourze and the shows I was catching up on then, I just wasn't feeling Rider as much in that weird little window of time, and Kabuto has always stayed a show I don't feel super passionate about one way or the other. It's something I'd love to watch again and reevaluate one of these days, now that I put way more thought into these things, but unless something in here seriously spurs me to watch along, I don't think I'll be doing that quite yet. Unless I decide to. Ah man, now I'm already considering it... Well, however that works out, I'll be looking forward to your insight as always, Die! Also, I love that we only get chonky Kabuto in the premiere; Kabuto's gimmick is one of my favorite things about him, and if the show immediately conditioned us to think of it as just something Tendou needs to skip past to do any real fighting, there'd be no point to it. I think it was an odd choice on the surface, but a very smart one. |
If there is one thing this first episode has taught us, tofu is worth the money to wake up super early in the morning and carry it on a stainless steel bowl in all its glory. :lolol
