Faiz 28! And that's it for volume 7 of Faiz.

The theatrical cut from a Blu-ray source!

Faiz 27 released

A new Rider?

Let's join Smart Lady-oneesan on a wayback trip to 2003.

Faiz 25 released! -xoxo

Please change part three's file name to: [T-N]Kamen_Rider_OOO_HBV03[8392459D]DVDver2.avi

Otherwise there's no difference in the file content. You can just resume after that.

One day we'll get it right, baby. And when that happens, our lives will be perfect.

Only part 3 was changed to fix a desync issue.

If you have the original files, just point the torrent at them since that'll help seed the other files while you download the new part 3. If you were in the middle of downloading, just delete your old part three and resume with the new torrent.

Just getting this out of the way before we release Mega Max

I feel like this episode is an homage to the manga series "Twin Spica." Spica is a story about teenagers who are training to become astronauts. Maybe it's all in my head, but a lot of the scenarios and specifically, the girl pictured really does remind me of the manga. If you like a slice of life style manga, check it out. It's pretty much a jdorama in manga form.

Episode 37 released.

"Twin Spica" review

So like I said earlier, this is a slice of life manga. The focus is mainly on the characters and their interactions with each other. There are a few fantastical elements to it. The training that they go through is ridiculous, it sort of reminds me of the Hunter Test from Hunter X Hunter in that sense. But there's also a ghost in the story and stories about death, the afterlife, etc. Basically there is a mystery to a tragedy that occurs in the past that has rippling effects on events that occur in the present day.

But overall it's really heartfelt and sometimes emotionally burdensome. Like, "Oh man, that was kind of heavy and sappy. Let's read some more Full Metal Alchemist to cleanse the palate." But that can be good sometimes.

There is also a lot of little neat things that the author throws into the manga. Like at the end, there's an extra story that took me three volumes before I realized that it was about the author (I had thought it was some side character that I had forgotten about.) Plus, the three main female protagonists names spell the author's given name (Realized that today.) Apparently this series didn't sell very well, but maybe check it out and see if you like it. It's probably a good side dish for Fourze.

The Junior Kamen Rider Squad?!

So you might notice the torrent is twice as big compared to usual. That's because it includes the Fourze Quiz 1 bonus from the Blu-ray. I think people will enjoy the segment since it shows how well the Fourze actors get along with each other. Plus you (and me) get to learn a bit about Rider history.
