Again a very likpatous story
There is in fact no year 0!

I've now watched the second episode of Donbrothers. I'm still not really sold on it. I'm hoping plot will happen at some point, instead of things just happening. The only thing that I think I've noticed is everyone who's a member of the Donbrothers seems to have suffered some sort of misfortune that's ruining their lives, aside from Tarou himself. I'm also conflicted in my feelings for him. As Momoi Tarou, he's a pretty cool guy and I like him. As Don Momotaro, I can't stand him. I've never really cared much for arrogant, unbeatable protagonists. It's why I don't like Kabuto much.

Buddy I'm teasing you because saying that someone calling your opinion bad is attacking your mental health is stupid.

That and actually deciding not to enjoy something because other people enjoy it is also just kind of a dumb reflex. And if the style of the show was not apparent by episode 5 I don't think you're gonna gel with it or really see how it's different From any other Show because you have decided to not like it already to the point you're jokingly pretending it never existed. Watching more of it is just gonna lead you to get weird about it at this point

Oh yeah I still understand how you could see The 1st few episodes and say It's typical of sentai. The birthday ep is like...episode 5 or 6 isn't it? With its 2 minutes of action and 17 of just really earnest character work and goofs.

I wish that was the norm

Okay that's fair but someone actually did that in a discord I was in, however that's basically irrelevant to the discussion here and I apologise for bringing that here

I didn't like Donbros and it's frustrating to see people post about it because I didnt get what they got out of it and I'm wondering what I missed out on, so I want to try again in good faith so I can not be weird about it or at least decide not to like it on its own faults

I'll drop it now instead of Posting Through It because god forbid I become like Delphisage or any of that class of weirdo motherfuckers

The TV version is great but I think it's just because it has that perfect hook at the turn in the OP and I don't think a full version would be good. It benefits from its brevity.

I've only watched the first episode and it's had:

Implied broken necks from holds, a guy getting his throat cut with visible blood, but no spray, off-screen organ theft where we hear the victim's cries and see them before they get opened up, maid cafe fight where the culottes are plainly visible, a lesbian kiss

So a bit more brutal than Akibaranger in terms of action, but at around the same level of fanservice.

So kawaii..
watched episode 1 of King-Onger
interesting setup. its nice to see a real mech fight again.


having 5 different countries is neat. The spirit king or whatever reminds me of the dinosaur god spirit in Zyuryuger.

So far, from first impressions I like the genki rice guy from the I guess, agriculture country. And the spoiled hime character.

Cool setup with the original red being a total jerk that wants to take over the other kingdoms, and Gira taking the sword and being a rebel king. Look like he's gonna travel to the other countries to eventually sway the others to join him. While getting hunted down by the red country army

Kyuun seems intensely hosed up and I assume that getting her freedom from him too will be part of Neon’s arc.

King-Ohger's first episode is really good. Frankly a stronger start than Donbrothers. Hope it keeps up that energy, I know Kamihoriuchi is handling the first five episodes so that should hopefully set some strong precedents for the following directors.

I am completely gobsmacked at the production values on display in King-Ohger, and considering that it seems like they'll be in this setting for the entire series, godspeed on them seeing it through.

Dec 19, 2012
Oh, they're definitely not keeping up with some of this stuff after this first episode or so, as typical for pretty much every sentai series. Something's gonna give for production reasons, but they have the CG stuff for their green screen rooms though at loeast.

King Ohger episode 1 was pretty good, if a bit too dense and spread out (somehow) for its own good, but I could say that about most Super Sentai first episodes I have seen.

So it looks like Gira isn't (Or, at least at this point known to be) some secret brother to the King that is reasserting his own right to the thrown; Rather, he is just another Joe Somebody who just happens to hightail it right to the castle as poo poo is going down to see What Is Up and finds out that his King is, in fact, a huge rear end in a top hat. I do like the long shot of him realizing what he just got himself into and eventually deciding :regd08: "Screw it, lets lean into it" :regd08:

Also, this is Attack on Titan as gently caress.
