So, been watching some more of GoBusters when it hit me.

We know that they have these interesting weaknesses / quirks related to computers, right? Red freezes, Blue overheats/overclocks, Yellow is an energy hog.

Now Beet doesn't seem to have any, but then I noticed something about Stag, he always interrupts Beet at the most random of times, Stag even tends to answer in the place of Beet sometimes. You know what Stag and Beet are? A net user whose account got hacked by a Spam Bot with an amazing number of pop-up ads. :animlol:

So Go-busters has almost ended, I would comment on how the series has been but I'm still up to about episode 20 because only Jin and Enter were entertaining in any way. That being said I'm interested in other people's thought's, maybe someone can say something about that'll make me want to watch the episodes I haven't yet.

... Well, we know that the next Kamen Rider is Kamen Rider Gaim, and that he's a fruit samurai...

We have also learned that the writer for the series is Gen Urobuchi...

They let the same guy who wrote Madoka Magica and Fate/Zero get his hands on Kamen Rider? Who the hell went and made that coked-up decision?!

Okay, let's not panic. The seasons gimmick is Fruit Samurai. Nobody is good enough to make that premise plausibly dramatic.

You kids summon small monster-things to fight in pokemon-like battle, but this leaves holes open for larger monsters to come through and wreak havoc.

Nobody, huh? That remains to be seen. And why are you concerned about the Fate/Zero guy getting his hands on Kamen Rider? The Franchise before the revival with the 2k riders was a LOT darker than it is right now. It's kinda right up his alley as it were. Of course, he might tone it down. On the other hand, he might not.

So, we can expect a resurrection of Skull Man then?

Didn't they kinda do that already with Kamen Rider Skull in Kamen Rider W? Wasn't Skull based on the Skull Man?

... And isn't Skull Man also the name of a Mega Man boss?

Kinda, Dechs, kinda. And no, not to confused with the Mega Man Boss.

Skull Man was one of the original versions of the concept done by Ishinomori that would become Kamen Rider. He is a far cry from what would become the heroes of the Kamen Rider franchise. They're not the same, but considering that they had the same creator...

Yeah. Wow, that mech...to say nothing of the Terry's Chocolate Orange henshin over on Kamen Rider.

Have to admit, I'm not terribly enthusiastic about the current year's offering, though I am behind a bit.

When Bandai decides that the toyline was too much of a flop to even try and do again, Saban gives in and moves on.
