So I just finished the first episode of this. I have never, ever watched a Kamen Rider show before. Not even one episode. I also think Gen Urobuchi's shows are highly overrated and have never liked any of them. A friend of mine, who is a big Kamen Rider fan, convinced me to watch by describing the show as: "the story of a young japanese man who uses a rip-off pokeball to transform into a dancing, motorcycle-riding fruit samurai".

One episode and I'm in goddamn love. Maybe it's because I'm a big mecha fan and this is just a logical step from one toy-centric genre into another. Maybe it's because Kouta transformed by having a goddamn orange fall out of a sky zipper and engulf his head. It doesn't matter, because either way I really, really like this loving show.

I actually fist-pumped when I saw the subs were up for episode two.

It took me about twenty minutes to watch the first ten minutes of the show, because I had to keep pausing to laugh. The eyebrows thing nearly killed me. Even seeing a .gif of the eyebrows thing is killing me. I'm completely sold at this point, on Gaim and Kamen Rider in general. As excited as I was for KlK, this is probably my favorite show of the season.

Your friend is probably going to have a lot of fun pushing you in to watching other entries. Have fun with them when you inevitably break and try them.

Believe me, he is. I'm already downloading Kamen Rider W at his urging. I have no idea if it's any good or not, but hey this show is already goddamn fantastic and he recommended it to me, so I'll give it a shot!

And hey, if anyone has any other recommendations for me, go ahead and throw them out there.
