Superhero Time: It's time for the Magical Climax!

Come one, come all, to the only segment where you can experience random fire blasts with the chant of one word. And this is no trick as there are some mystical forces at work here. 

If one measly little fire stunt is not enough for you, then you can come down and check out the marvelous performances done by the spying Go-Busters and Kamen Rider Wizard.

 

Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters Episode 30

There goes the neighborhood.

We haven't even reached the finale of the series, and Go-Busters has stepped up their game to a level I did not expect them to go with. Continuing on, one of my theories came true as Hiromu and the others learned about the harsh truth behind the state of the missing laboratory members. In fact, part of their situation is connected to the creation of Enter and Escape, which was set up by some foreshadowing elements. 

It looks like everything has been wrapped up for now, except that that the situation with Jin's original body has yet to be resolved. Considering the show's similarities to King of Braves Gaogaigar, Go-Busters is probably going to introduce a new group that might be connected to the creation of the Messiah. If not, then Messiah's evolution will play a role in his survival.

For an episode that looks like the end, Go-Busters manage to shine with the resolution of the three Busters as they had to accept the price of victory when the truth was in front of them. Something tells me that this was also Yasuko Kobayshi's doing, since she has been famous for tossing dark/creepy elements into toku kid shows. With the series being more than halfway through, I hope that they utilize her writing skills more often during the next segment. 

 

Kamen Rider Wizard Episode 3

Behold, the giant foot of doom.

I can't believe that I was fooled into believing that Shunpei has the potential to use magic, since Soma's back-story did a good job in fooling viewers by hinting that a Gate is capable of using magic. But then again, part of the episode's set up would've been ruined if none of the viewers were fooled during the first part. 

Wizard may have it's silly moments, but that doesn't mean that it's safe from the grasp of getting edgier later on. With the way how Hellhound planned out Shunpei's demise, I am still getting my hopes up later on. If anything, the show might handle the dark segments in the way that Kamen Rider Kiva and OOO did theirs. 

From the way how Section Zero is being handled so far, there is a chance that they will be involved with the creation of the second Rider as a method to fight against Wizard and the Phantoms. If that happens to be the case, then my dream of the second Rider being a lovely female assistant is officially ruined. If anything, I will just have to cross my fingers for a female Rider to appear in the upcoming Wizard movies.

Japanator Interviews: DAISUKI.net's Eri Maruyama

You might of heard that there is a new streaming site that has just launched out of Japan. It is being backed by some big names in the anime world like Aniplex, Sunrise, and Toei. What could that exactly mean for you, you ask? Well, let me let Eri Maruyama (International Business Development) at DAISUKI answer that as well as many more burning questions that I had about the new service.
