Den-O is the slapstick comedy of KR, just a quick heads up.

Like I said, now that I've found the rest in English I'm gonna keep going. As long as I cna watch it with ease it's no skin off of my tail. It's just... does something happen any time soon?

Kabuto is boring me, and I can't find the rest subbed in English, so I think I'm either gonna do Den-o or Kuuga instead.
I'll do Den-O, and if I don't like it, I'll try Kuuga. EDIT: Oh, apparently there is more of it dubbed in English. I'll give it until Gattack shows up but I just find it so slow and... unrewarding. Nothing happens, really. The enemies are dumb and uninteresting, "Cock up" is half cool half annoying, and aside from Gary every character can go jump in a trash bin for all I care.

Like I said, I consider Gattack to be the shining star of Kabuto. If you make it to him and still don't find it interesting, then you can feel free to just drop it.

Finished Agito last night! Overall it was a really good series and I liked it way more than I liked Kuuga (though Kuuga is still good IMO). I just liked the characters, the mystery, the suit designs and story a lot more than Kuuga. I do have a few nitpicks, however.
First, the sudden addition of the two female characters (Scorpion and Kana) was entirely pointless. They killed one off (once again confirming my suspicion that Gills life just completely sucks) and the other one just sort of disappeared after her attempted suicide. Completely needless characters IMO. Second, what's with earlier Hesei era series not knowing how to conclusively finish off the main villain? Kuuga just implies the main villain was defeated and Agito blows the main villain up but then he shows up again (I guess as a spirit?). At least Ryuki had a fairly conclusive ending. I have to say that the newer Hesei era series (W, OOO, Fourze) get at least one thing right: they have very conclusive and final feeling endings. /RANT Overall I'd really recommend Agito as the mystery is intriguing, the fights are great, and (unlike Kuuga) the mysteries are nearly completely resolved. As for the final villain surviving, well, he's god. Agito is pretty damn awesome, but he's not strong enough to kill god. All he does is basically prove the strength of the human spirit in Rider Kick form and convince the Overlord to just hang back and watch how things go on their own. |

The Bee is a pretty cool looking suit.
Shame all I ever hear about him is how much he sucks. Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 01-25-2013 at 02:06 PM.. |

The last few episodes always feel a little bit different to me, like they're more of an epilogue to the main story. The two girls do really feel shoehorned in, but I like the biker chick so much that I don't really care. It's just a bummer that she had to be Gills-ed.

Can somebody tell me what episode Gattack actually shows up? Right now The Bee and Kabuto are fighting for reasons I think the show forgot to tell me. I'm sure this is supposed to be all epic, but since neither characters are interesting or likable ("I am the sun" okay this is getting ridiculous. I thought Kabuto was bad. Although a gaint, hostile ball of noxious burning gas isn't a far off comparrison)
I'm just kinda skimming through eps at this point. I think this show forgot to have a plot. Nothing happens for any logical reason. Or any illogical reason. The worms are terrible villains and Zect are a terrible organization. The Bee comes out of nowhere and so far has fought two monsters in very unimpressive ways and got in a boring fight with Kabuto. And away from the monster fighting the people are just a chore to tolerate. Almost everyone talks in a droning monotone and there's not a bit of genuine character or life among them all. The only good thing about this show is the suits and Gary, but he's not even that interesting, just the most interesting. Quote:
I just don't see what's to like about this show. It's not like it's so bad it's just... there's nothing to it. I'm nine episodes in and I can't think of a single memorable moment so far. EDIT: Den-o, however, has me interested and I'm not even ten minutes in. This poor guy has the worst luck ever. Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 01-25-2013 at 03:03 PM.. |

It is, but like I said the characters, especially the main Imagin, are very energetic and bring a lot of life to the show. If you can enjoy it for the craziness, and if you like more lighthearted stoytelling like I do, you'll really enjoy it I'm sure. The only thing I hated about the series? The final villian...I just wanted to punch that little snot everytime he was on screen.
