Rei_ posted:-"Takebe disliked the "two Rider" formula post-W, and wanted to scrap it in favor of multiple Riders. Urobuchi, a big Ryuki fan, agreed." I'm pretty stoked about this as well. It gives more opportunity for character clashes and interesting personalities to develop. I'm a fan of overall antagonism among heroes, like Timefire and the Timerangers.

I didn't particularly care for the way Bravo was all slapstick by the end of the episode.

Everytime I see footage for the Gaim/Wizard movie I get more and more stoked. Although having all Riders in each movie is getting a bit old.

HKR posted:I wish someday Sabin or some other us company just decides to roll their own toku. The Power Rangers movie was actually decent and shows we can do spandex martial arts just as good. Honestly, up to Power Rangers RPM, the series seemed like they were filming their own footage, relying on Japan for the robot fights.

Darksaber posted:I agree. I mean, there's a lot of stuff you can nitpick about W, but the chemistry between the entire cast really sells it for me. Maybe if we're extra lucky and find the right people to blackmail we can get a W: Ten Years Later in five years. At least part of the cast is still willing to reprise their roles! The cast chemistry is why it was so fun to watch the W Net Movies drawing contests.

At this point it's just anger. It's no longer about preserving joy or happiness -- it's devolved into something weird and dark. Also, it'd be awesome if Bandai released a video with Kaito teaching you how to dance like Team Baron.

Lostconfused posted:He will always be a supporting character. His rebellion is just to add a bit of extra tension. Now that the existing tension of strained relationships between Takatora and Kouta, and Takatora and Micchy has been resolved. My preference is for Micchy getting slapped around by Mai if/when she learns who he really is and everything he's done. And then Micchy getting the forbidden fruit and using his god-like powers to separate Helheim and Earth so all his friends can stay happy. If that's something he even cares about now.

Darksaber posted:Nope, I'm the guy watching Kabuto! I'm only like 10 episodes from the end so I need to just finish it, and I'm still enjoying it, but holy gently caress it's like the writing staff had a severe concussion right after they went down to the hidden room for the second time. Maaaaybe this'll all make sense in the end but right now I have no clue where half this stuff came from. The decline in Kabuto's quality corresponds to decreasing amounts of food porn.

jonjonaug posted:I was rewatching the first two episodes of Gaim earlier today, to get a feeling of "oh, so THIS is how far we've come". While watching I was like "wait who's that sorta androgynous male dancer backing up OH MY GOD THAT'S MICCHY". The actor carries himself so differently now, and along with the changes to wardrobe and hair style I outright did not recognize Micchy at first. He's definitely ditched the ugly sweaters.

tsob posted:I would imagine it's how stubbornly he clings to the idea that he can talk down everyone, how long it takes him to come to terms with the fact Demushu couldn't be talked down and how horrified he seemed at the idea someone like that could exist. In a show targeted towards kids it's understandable to draw that out since kids wouldn't be as like to know just how lovely people can be. He's not jaded enough yet basically. Wasn't the entire conversation with Sagara, when Sagara gave Kouta Kachidoki Arms, about Kouta rejecting the rules the adult world had formed? I.e., you have to kill some for the sake of all? Demushu became, well, not even an exception because it didn't care for a single life -- it never shared a common point of belief with Kouta.

Literally The Worst posted:I keep saying this but I'd love to watch Kabuto. I just want to actually watch Kabuto and know what they're saying, and not whatever mangled clusterfuck TV-Nihon-tachi-sama wrote down. The absurdity of TVN subtitling somehow perfectly matches Tendou's smug arrogance. The same can be said of Kadoya Tsukasa and Daikiki Kaitoh.

Rei_ posted:The implication I always got from Kabuto was that Tendou was 'perfect' because upon acquiring the belt as a child he sort of has the entire gameplan for how the timeline post asteroid is going to play out, since he recieved it from his future-self. This is why he's always ahead of everyone and in weird places. At a certain point in the show this timeline fractures and he finds himself requiring more and more having to rely on others because he's no longer ahead of the game. Perhaps... but the entire timeline after the asteroid is different from God Speed Love because the the level of destruction and the consequences are so different. Plus, that doesn't explain how he crafts a divine miso soup using a radish that he held up to the wind.

tsob posted:Watching Marika cut through all his poo poo in seconds and put him down verbally this episode was glorious. I'm really curious how far Micchy is going to go in the show at this stage. Will he manage to keep hanging around till the end like a cockroach, or will he put down soon so that the show can move on to other, bigger threats. Marika's remark that he's no king would suggest he's gonna die soon. I'm not honestly sure which I'd prefer at this stage. Honestly, with Micchy's comments at the end of the show, he seems like the biggest threat. Even the craziest Overlord only wants to keep humanity around as playthings. Micchy is actually keen on doing away with this world and starting a new one with obedient friends and more dancing.

The only thing I need for this to be cathartic is for Mai to turn her back on Micchy so that he sees what he's done won't create a world anyone he cares about would want to live in. Then Redue will stab him in the back because he'll no longer be entertaining.

Urobuchi seriously knows how to tantalize us with comeuppence.quote:"I try to keep an even hand with my characters, but whenever I come up with one, I try to keep one thing in common with myself, so I have a hook into them. So far I haven't come up with any characters that are completely foreign from myself." From an interview with him. I wonder what he's got in common with Micchy...
