Caught up again! Episode 11 is the conclusion of Kizaki’s (first?) arc, and episodes 12 and 13 are more about Shunpei, and his sense of worth as Haruto’s self-styled apprentice… but I’m actually just going to focus on how they encapsulate the theme of Kamen Rider Wizard perfectly.
I was a little bit behind on Kamen Rider Wizard, but yesterday I got caught up on episodes 6 through 9, and I have to say I’m really enjoying this year’s Rider. Haruto’s motivations have been nicely fleshed out, and the whole thing feels like it’s coming together nicely.
I’ve been swamped the past couple of weeks, but eventually I want to go back and touch on episodes 2 and 3. In the meantime, quick thoughts on episode 4:
Well, nearly a week later and I’m just now writing that Kamen Rider Wizard first impressions follow-up post with my thoughts on Souma Haruto and Daimon Rinko (who I’m really excited about).

It’s time for a new hero again, and I have to say, after a year more or less away from the franchise, I have been really looking forward to Kamen Rider Wizard, since I first saw the suit design and started reading about the premise.
So how did the first episode stack up against my expectations?

I’m going to be trying to get down quick reactions to stuff from now on, instead of mulling things over so much that I end up… not posting.
Anyway. Asylum of the Daleks. Doctor Who‘s triumphant return to tv.
(Using tv show screencap for a book post because, well, it fits.)
So, Game of Thrones, Sansa I. I have to say, I’m not actually planning to blog about every chapter as I read (I’d never finish!), but Sansa I in particular stood out to me, because I enjoyed it a lot more on reread than I did originally. In part I think it’s that now that after you’ve read all the books and know who Sansa is, who she was and who she is becoming and why, you appreciate that this initial chapter kind of encapsulates, in and of itself, her initial journey.
Just a warning, this post ended up being spoilery for the reminder of Game of Thrones (no specifics though), and is also very vaguely spoilery for Arya in general, although only in the most general of terms.
