How Kamen Rider Agito Improved Kuuga's Bright Start for Kamen Rider?

So I'm done discussing about Kuuga's starting the revolution. So I can't even call Agito perfect but it did manage to really help strengthen the revolution that Kuuga started via Toshiki Inoue who sadly later didn't write works as good as this one. =( Moving on, what do I say really made Agito improve where Kuuga left of with some diamonds unearthed? Kuuga started the bounty, Agito did the finishing job on the remaining diamonds.

I should star with the allies. Arakawa began rubbing off the rough surfaces Black RX left behind leaving some shine but too bad, as said we can't really get anything 100%. So Inoue managed to maintain the roles of allies while adding some varnish of deeper involvement that is backstory-wise finishing my estimate of 20% of the dullness of what Naruhisa Arakawa wasn't able to able to remove so he finished the job. The best part has to be Mana's backstory and the Agito seed people getting woven, that is making Arakawa's ally involvement a little better than that. But sad to say while Arakawa manages to improve with what he started, Inoue dwindled down. Arakawa I believe has learned from mistakes he made in Kuuga, sadly Inoue didn't bother to check whatever mistakes he made in Jetman and Faiz before proceeding to write Faiz and the rather cartoony Kiva.

Restoration of the secondary riders but a far greater flavor. Okay I won't discredit the Showa days (that was before Kamen Rider had the J-Drama style) where Kamen Rider-2 in the first Kamen Rider was added or Riderman from Kamen Rider V3. In the case of Agito, this series managed to create more unique twists. G3 was actually a Kamen Rider created by the law enforcement while Ryo is an estranged one. This may be "Taking Kamen Rider 2 and Riderman to a whole new level with new twists." In my case, I considered Gills to have some loose inspiration from Amazon in terms of fighting styles. In the case of Ryuki, it did take the concept WAY TOO FAR with the Rider War.

Improving the mystery concept of Kuuga but not at a big leap. So Kuuga started it fresh, Agito was a preservative of sorts. So pretty much Agito really knew how to promote Kuuga's mold but sadly, it's been badly ignored in later seasons of Kamen Rider.

"Light The Night's" Finale (Spoilers Ahead)

SpikyTV I guess the series just kept us guessing, right? I finally got the chance to finish it after some busy nights. I was right that the killer was HANA (Esther Liu) BUT there's a twist - it was more of voluntary manslaughter than murder. Manslaughter is when one kills out of the heat of passion and that's what Hana did twice in the story. Hana had one against a client who used her and another against Sue after some unfortunate insanity attack. Hana ends up planning to hand herself over but her lover commits murder (towards a character named Chiang An) to protect her. The whole psychological thriller for me just didn't match up to what I wanted. I guess I was too used to how Victim's Game rolled out. I was expecting some real murder scheme. Instead, it was the anti-climatic manslaughter where Hana decides to hand herself to the authorities after what she did. I really still think that the finale wasn't worth too much of the wait. I was expecting something gran

I Just Finished "My Golden Life"

I finally finished My Golden Life which I was hesitant to watch. 52 one-hour long episodes? I was thinking it was easier to watch the Wuxia series that had 40+ minutes per episode such as Princess Weiyang which was quite long. A lot of episodes of My Golden Life would have a few minutes more depending on the coverage of the episode. So, I'm done and I never thought I'd actually finish it since I'm way too used to short K-Dramas. This one was rather long but it was rather entertaining in many ways. I was thinking about how Shin Hye Sun actually did well with on-screen partner Park Si Hoo. Sometimes, I'd like to joke about how they had a chemistry that looked good and felt good. Looked good? Both aren't attractive and I often joke how Hye Sun's face feels melted or how she was rightfully matched with Lee Jong Suk in Hymn of Death . Hye Sun isn't pretty but she really makes up with her good acting and likability. The same goes for Si Hoo with how he acts out hi

Just Finished "My Glamorous Imperial Concubine" (Some Spoilers)

This is another Wuxia series finished. I was having some expectations broken. The show can be full of spoilers when discussed even further. In fact, some characters are walking spoilers. If you're not ready to be spoiled - DON'T READ. If not, you can read further. I feel the show had some plot twists and turns. Besides, maybe some of the villains in this show weren't as evil as you think. Emperor Liancheng is an antagonist but dies before the show can end. Liancheng may have some idiotic obsession with Ma Fuya. It becomes even worse when Liancheng's younger sister Liansi and his younger brother Lianxi get involved. Liansi develops a crush on Meng Qiyou and even gets pregnant in the process. It seems that Ma Fuya was pregnant with Liancheng's baby but ends up in Qiyou's household after Liancheng dies. Liancheng dies doing a selfless act to save Ma Fuya. The obsessive empress Ma Xiangyun commits suicide to kill Emperor Liancheng. Emperor Liancheng's quite a
