So what's everyone's thoughts on Fourze, I'm loving all of it, especially the characters.

I think there's only one real way to sum it up.

It combined my favorite finishers ever: Drills and the Rider Kick. We're probably not gonna be seeing it as much as I'd like with all the powerups, but still pretty awesome nonetheless.

Fourze: Space is AWESOME!!!

That is all.

I think that's all that's needed here.

I've gone through Shinkenger, finally, and well...wow.

Making decent progress on W, OOO, and Gokaiger as well...gonna check out Fourze's first ep to see if it catches my interest. *grins* I have a lot of catching up to do.

However, a big thanks to MEK for introducing me to the brain-melting awesomeness of these two franchises and the four specific seasons I've watched so far. They are all amazing!

Shinkenger is indeed awesome. Takeru Shiba set the standard for all super sentai leaders. It's a good thing you skipped straight to Gokaiger. Goseiger was pretty dissapointing. Some good costume and weapon designs, but I was just not feeling it with the mecha, the gimmicky card stuff or the characters themselves. I couldn't even get past the first episode.

And you'll love Fourze. I haven't seen W, but compared to OOO, Fourze has a much larger and honestly better supporting cast. I'm still on the fence on how the new supporting Rider compares to Birth, but we're still only at the beginning of the character's arc.

I was just not ready for Fourze, I mean:
- Rocket Punch
- Chainsaw Kicks
- Rocket Drill Kick
- High School Kamen Rider

Then there's the main dude, who I swear so far seems like the younger version of Kamina-sama, and the hints of what promises to be quite the storyline...all before I found out that it was written by Kazuki Nakashima himself.



This will be fun.

I know man. He's Rider Kicking monsters with a Drill. Best Finisher Ever.

A question for my Super Sentai Sempai...hmm, Sempai Sentai Virirenger, maybe Kamen Rider Sempai?

*notes down possible plot bunnies*

Anyways, a question...the Gokaiger are tsundere for the planet, aren't they?

"I-I wasn't trying to save you! Y-you were just in the way...baka!"

It's an exciting time to be a tokusatsu fan. Even though it'll probably be the usual misunderstanding-based Let's you and me fight-plot. And it's nice to see Decade again. He wasn't my favorite rider by any stretch of the word, but he was allright.

So Gobusters first episode was pretty good, though hoefully we get more about blue and yellow next episode. Sure it's not gokaiger awesome but I doubt any sentai would be able to pull that off in the first episode and plus Enter looks to be just as entertaining as Basco was.

So on my catch up game with the rest of you toku fans:

- Gokaiger - Episode 39 (School's awesome...when Basco isn't raining on the parade -.-)
- Go-busters - Episode 1 (...fascinating)

- OOO - Episode 24 ("Yuumi-san...join me in tomorrow's underwear..."*ding!* oh and Shauta's epic)
- Fourze - Episode 14 (And thus concludes this week's PSA ^^)
- W - FINISHED! (WOW!!)

Still have a ways to go, senpai, but I'm doing my best!

Someone's been a busy bee.

Once you're all caught up, make some time for Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. It's what got me into all this. Can't recommend it enough.

Here's the op just to give you an idea:

He already has. I preempted you, Farmer. :V

I just checked , saw that he did and edited accordingly. I'm already appropriately shamed for posting before reading.

Hi, me again

Guess who just finished Gokaiger? It. Was. Epic.

Oh, I recently ran into Hikounin (Unofficial) Sentai Akibaranger...thoughts?

I'm loving it so far, I'm suprised at how much I want to know what's going on with the plot I figured I'd just love it because it's funny but I'm also really interested in finding out why the sentai heroes are appearing in the grand delusions.

So that's Kamen Rider Wizard. Looks good to me. I like that the longcoat is a justified feature (he's a Wizard) and not just there to look good.

He looks awesome but I'm reserving judgement until I see a couple of episodes, at the very least he looks better than fourze, which admittedly isn't difficult.

Yeah, Fourze is definitely a case of 'you gotta see him in action to appreciate him'. Cause at first glance he's not that impressive.

Absolutely, he looks ridiculous but the series is awesome.

So I've kinda slipped on keeping up with Fourze, so I've been archive binging up to the latest ep. Anyhoo, here we go:

Cosmic States is awesome incarnate. It's power is a logical progression of everything seen so far (All your powers combined) and it's Power of Friendship thing fits Gentaro as a character (and also even more proof that Friendship is Magic). And the completion of Meteor's character arc was satisfying to me, primarilly cause I love it when Anti-Heroes drop the Anti and embrace their inner Hero.

As for the current events, I am really looking forward to see where this is all going. We're coming down to the wire, and so far the Big Bad has been a freakin' juggernaut. And his Dragon is no slouch either. It's lookin to be gearing up to be one helluva a finale.

As for the Fourze movies. The latest one looks like it's gonna be awesome, if the teasers are anything to go by. And I also made time to watch his first movie Fourze & OOO MovieWar MegaMax, which was pretty fantastic. OOO and Fourze each had their own stories that came together pretty well at the end. And W and the Showa riders presence, instead of being a seat-filler gimmick, actually fit the story. I'm not trying to be mean, it's just that the last time they did this in that Let's go Kamen Riders movie it felt more like a last minute asspull than an epic team-up. Here the crossover was much better done. All the characters got to show off what makes them awesome and there were some nice character bits between the latest three riders. You will actually feel sad to see Nadeshiko go too. By the end I actually wanted to see her stick around.

Superhero Taisen hasn't been subbed yet, but the few teasers they show in the episodes give me hope that it won't have the same problems Let's go Kamen Riders had.

And now I have to catch up on Go-busters. I think I dropped out around Ep 9, so this is gonna take a while.

One Last thing:

Holy crap, there also seems to be some kinda multi-series wide build up going on with Foundation X. I mean these guys have had a hand in everything for the last three seasons. And the few times they've been directly confronted have been against rogue agents, so we still have no clue who's at the head and what their deal is.

PS:

They can call this thing whatever they want but It's a shame we'll never see it on the actual show.

Gosei. Great. Megazord.

AND Gosei Ground Megazord.

Are you even trying anymore, Saban? Really?

They named the series Megaforce, they haven't been trying for a while.
