/m/ recommends it a majority of the time too :colbert:

The main character (Hint: It's Kagami) is a really great character, and Tendou's cocky-but-backs-it-up attitude as the main rider is really fun to watch as well. It's really frustrating when you have no idea what Tendou is doing until it's long past done, and the plot falls apart but the characters in Kabuto are top notch. More than I can say about a lot of other rider shows. Agito is still one of my favorites, but there's not much to say about Shouichi and I like OOO's a hell of a lot but there's literally nothing to say about Eiji. Kabuto is character driven over plot and it works for me, every single one of the riders has a character that develops incredibly well for a show thats plot goes on an acid trip half-way through.

If you don't want to watch Kabuto, basically Half the cast turns out to be the "enemies" in disguise, although confused and unaware they are. This includes Rider Sasword and the lead female, who Kagami and Tendou try and protect the whole series
Everything post-Decade is radically different than pre-Decade (Except Den-O), and everything Showa is pretty different from most things in the Hesei era, Agito & Kuuga withdrawn.

The only good thing I can say about Kabuto is that Kabuto's fights are basically the smuggest fights ever caught on film. "Just gonna stand here, let you throw a punch or two, don't even give a gently caress BAM you're dead." I love that so much.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but is there any clue what we should be taking from this? I've seen some of FMA and a bit of Nadesico, but not a bit of Blade, Boukenger, or Decade. Or is it just a sign that something's screwy with the production?

Also do you know who else brings it every 'episode'? Alex Smith. MVP material right there.

In the last episode it turns out this is all part of a time loop and the eclipse that's going to happen is the same one that turned numbnuts into Wizard and the cycle of stupid bullshit will be complete.

You can do uniform design without making them loving massive overly simplified blocks of color. Hell, for an example of this look at Gokaiger.

Gokaiger was also mostly consistent about who turned into what, and they changed costumes at the same time. Big difference between that adn everyone wearing the same design in different colors that change all the time.

Kabuto seems to be a very like/hate kind of show. Most people I've seen who like Kabuto (which isn't many) don't love it, and everyone else is severely put off by Tendou and/or Hiyori. It was my first Rider/tokusatsu show and the only one I could tolerate watching until I got used to toku's brand of goofiness, and I was coming right off Korean dramas, which are utterly unbearable with the "nonstop easily avoidable drama" problem in addition to having painfully incompetent and ridiculously stupid lead characters, so Kabuto and Tendou were a breath of fresh air for me.

But I would have no idea how to recommend it to anyone given that there's so much in it that could easily turn people off.

I would really love to watch Kabuto but I want to actually know what people are saying, and not just what the words mean.

I had no idea I could watch them subtitled. I guess I'll try that with another series, I'm already too far into W that I wouldn't want my immersion ruined seeing as I already have ideas of what's going on in my head.

Hey just a quick heads up: You don't know what's going on, because you have no idea what anybody is actually saying. Also, maybe you should skim the OP, which is full of links to subtitled shows including W

Please don't be a stubborn idiot and not download subs. You don't know what's going on because you're missing out on huge pieces of the plot.

TVN actually hasn't finished either of them.

For Kuuga you want this and these (for the moment; there is much better video available if you want to play piecemeal, but the subs don't actually time well to either, those v2s of 1-5 are fixed and against the new video).

For Agito you want this, because GomenRider is stupid and lazy and slow and hasn't released the updated versions yet for most of the episodes.

That GomenRider guy is garbage and I hate him.

The Kabuto stuff is good because they go the other way with it and just do more detailing on the armor, making it look more like a suit of armor.
