So I just started on Kamen Rider W. "SHOTARO I'VE MADE AN AMAZING DISCOVERY YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF! TAKOYAKI!" I wanna hug Phillip so bad. EDIT: Six episodes in and my urge to hug Phillip is only becoming stronger. He's mega cute. Not sure what I think of the two part structure (it's my first exposure to it). The first two pairs of episodes worked together pretty well, but the whole "there's ANOTHER IDENTICAL MONSTER" of episodes 5/6 felt kinda forced and a bit lame. Phillip saved the plot at least by being cool as heck. jonjonaug fucked around with this message at 07:26 on Mar 31, 2014 |

She gets better.

Akiko never really chills out but she gets context and does some pretty cool things and that helps put her over a bit.

I readily admit to hating the poo poo out of Akiko when I first started watching (and the first half of the Sweets arc is basically her at her most obnoxious for me -- the second half, she's pretty cool) but over time I've mellowed out on her, especially after learning her background. I guess going from hate to love is a W fan's rite of passage, considering just how many people I've talked to have felt the same way.

I liked Akiko the whole time through. vv Besides, the real 'hate into love' character in W is Terui Ryu.

Kanpai Senshi After V sounds like it could be cool.

Yeah, I'm going with the consensus. Akiko was annoying at the start, but around the mid teens or so, I started getting used to her. She's a great character and a great part of the Narumi Detective Agency.

Man, Fruit Chew Chew (TQG vs Gaim) was a pretty fun palate cleanser for a week, even if the continuity problems caused me to have a mild hemmorage

I haven't actually watched Decade, but I find the idea of him being connected to the Rainbow Line somehow super tantalizing, and most likely impossible to come up again

Do I need to be caught up on Gaim to watch the crossover?

Speaking of Decade and the latest crossover ep: whats-his-name showing up out of a dimensional rift with a monkey puppet was pretty much the best thing I've ever seen.

I swear this is the first time I actually liked Narutaki. If Toei will keep not telling us who the hell he is while having him pop up in every crossover ever for no reason other than his rampant hate for Decade, then please, let him keep the puppet.

Blaze Dragon posted:Have mine. Kabuto's a goddamn trainwreck, and not the entertaining kind. Sad, because I love the suits and most of the secondary Riders, but the series completely derails...by episode 30, if I don't badly remember, and never recovers, it can never decide if we're meant to take Tendou as a fun exaggeration of a perfect character or a true, godly perfect character that everyone should love despite being an rear end in a top hat to literally everyone except his family, and the Natives are boring as hell. Ah, the Dark Kitchen two-parter. Tendou cooks far less food after that, which is part of the decline in Kabuto's quality. But it's helped by having the bosom BDSM brothers, PunchHopper and KickHopper.

He's Diend. Dude keeps talkin poo poo, dislikes Decade, occasionally starts villainous poo poo, and is probably a costume/disguise for someone else. Narutaki is Diend.

I haven't gotten around to any Vs movies yet but I'm loving seeing everything mashed together. Are they usually people from the Rider side not knowing what to make of the Sentai? The scene where Takatora says a giant robot is ridiculous was such an obvious joke but I still laughed. Fooley fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Mar 31, 2014 |

Fooley posted:The scene where Takatora says a giant robot is ridiculous was such an obvious joke but I still laughed. Agreed. As someone who's only tried Gaim, though, the last... ten? minutes or so were a bit baffling. I assume I'm supposed to be lost there?

The last 10 minutes were pretty much the characters directly saying "WATCH KAMEN RIDER WAR."

If I'm not up to date on ToQger, is it worth watching if I'm up to date on Gaim? Or can I safely put it on the backburner until then.
