Re: KR Gaim 42 released
its official this show is turning into kamen rider ooo all over again I would argue that point very adamantly. While they share the theme of "hero turning into what he's been fighting against all year" (which is a pretty common trope in early Kamen Rider anyway, so...?), the major differe...

Re: KR Gaim 42 released
I guess they never found a cure for Helheim infection? Because Rat got scratched too, and he recovered. Don't tell me that it just comes down to Kaito not wanting to see a doctor. To be fair -Most of the Helheim infections were caused by people scratched by average Helheim-bred Inves -Rat was scrat...

Re: KR Gaim 38 released
No one is surprised by how glad I am that Ryouma is back. I love Professor Exposition Dump. Must more enjoyable than Overlord Exposition Dump. And he's just such an unmitigated asshole, he really just does not understand how human empathy or sympathy work, and it's hilarious. Also, "secret tunn...

Re: KR Gaim 37 released
It's kind of ridiculous how thoroughly disappointed with this episode I am. Honestly I'm pre-emptively disappointed with the movie, i feel like it's coming out too early in the run and that they really went over-the-top out of their way to tie this movie into the World Cup and it's just plain not ne...

Re: KR Gaim 31 released
I dunno, I always assume the random voices who don't sound like actors are just the staff or anyone who's around at the time. Yeah, I always wonder with stuff like that. A few episodes ago when Takatora was on the computer-phone with someone presumably higher up at Yggdrasill (his father? someone e...

Re: KR Gaim 31 released
I can't help but laugh at Ryouma sitting behind the computer while in suit. They did their best to make it plot-reasonable with those wires like his suit is directly connected to his ~Master Intelligent System~ but to those of us who pay too much attention to the behind the scenes stuff, it's clear ...

Re: KR Gaim 29 released
Why are you guys so surprised about the belt swaps? Faiz was a belt swap festival in every single episode and almost anyone that was an Orphenoc was able to use any belt at any time. The issue is here it's been clearly stated that the original driver could only be used by the first wearer, as clear...

Re: Toqger 12 departing now
Wiki: http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/TQG_Station_12 I don't remember if I mentioned it before in other episode threads, but why are the enemies in this series darkness themed? Shouldn't they be nightmare themed? I can get the Darkness theme, though. The ToQgers aren't 'dream' themed, after all, where...

Re: KR Gaim 28 released
I think part of what made this episode hurt was that at times, I kept being unable to unsee certain AB'ers as the Yggdrasil characters and, :( "Raise Your Flag" is a good song still, though. Don't worry, Mac, I'm not planning on orchestrating the tossing of my husband off a cliff any time...

Re: Kr Gaim 27 released
Yeah, gotta agree with this, Kaito was established as early as episode 2 that he doesn't hold with deceitful victory, that it doesn't count as "true strength" from his perspective, and that's been re-confirmed throughout his interactions with Yggdrasill. Yeah, it turned out this time to en...

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 02 released
Everything seems to tie in with Messiah at some point, which is unfortunate in my opinion. It kind of shows how the original Garo series was meant to be a standalone story. Since you can't really go higher than the creator of all Horrors, so all you can do is fight her offshoots like Messiah's Fang...

Re: What's the deal with letter grades in Japanese culture?
All I can think about when talking about S ranks is the support conversations in Fire Emblem: Awakening, and how certain pairs of units can reach an S-rank conversation in which they get married at the end, so I assumed the S in that case stood for Spouse |D

Here's a pic of me holding my Gashapon Orange
They're generally about the size they are in the show, excepting those funny moments the suit actors appear to be holding Lockseeds that are about twice the size as they usually seem to be >>

Re: Recent Toy Purchase
It wouldn't surprise me at all since the right half of OTP's booth is all doujinshi.... I do believe that is in fact the reason they're called that, and they started out as JUST a doujin seller, the big thrust of being the major Toku merch sellers is, to my knowledge, a relatively more recent shift...

Re: Time Stamps on the Encodes?
I have literally never seen a Sentai series that DIDN'T have the timestamp (except maybe Liveman? I can't recall). Magiranger, Gokaiger, Gekiranger, Go-Busters... They all have that timestamp.
Where are you seeing these magical uploads of Sentai without the timestamp?
