This is the state of my life...
May. 24th, 2011 12:44 pmI have been a busy little pirating beaver this past month. (And look at me! I live on the wild side, talking about all this.)
Between Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger (which I watched streaming and am now downloading to love and cherish), I've finally caught up on Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger and Kamen Rider OOO, downloaded and re-watched Kamen Rider Den-O (the love for the Imagin, it knows no bounds), downloaded and watched GouGou Sentai Boukenger (which was... uh... good? I think. Maybe? ... It had it's moments), and am currently downloading and trying really hard to watch Tensou Sentai Goseiger (this one is... not so good so far. I hope it will have its moments). When I finish with Gaoranger it will be onto downloading and re-watching Kamen Rider W, Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, and Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger (I haven't cooed over Shotaro or Genta or Abaranger period being awesome in months, man, I need my fix).
For all of you on my F-list who have no idea what the hell I'm talking about: All those shows with 'sentai' in the title? Went on to become Power Rangers. The ones with the giant robots and the people in spandex suits and pyrotechnics. (Except Goseiger and Gokaiger, because they haven't finished making Shinkenger into Power Rangers yet and Goseiger and Gokaiger come after it). Yeah. I watch the totally awesome stuff. :|b
Kamen Riders do not have an American equivalent (save Kamen Rider Ryuki). They involve a lot of motorcycles and explosions and are generally full of main-character-jerks with single bright spots of humanity relegated to one other main character. No, really, I watch the totally awesome stuff. :|b
(The thing is? My love for Kamen Rider series and Sentai series is actually quite uh... un-cynical is the best I'm coming up with. It borders on ridiculous, actually. Someday I mayforce upon you horrify you with treat you to a series of fan-rants about them.)
I'm also slowly starting to crawl up the pile of Arashi shows I haven't seen since I left. I'm not sure I like the new format of Himitsu no Arashi-chan very much, but at least I have all of them now. I need to finish downloading VS and Shiyagare and then I will have conquered the TV. That is until I find somebody who has downloads of all four seasons of Hancho.
Have I mentioned that I've started speaking to myself in Japanese? Because I have.
