In Search of Igadevil!

Sorry guys, I hate to make a habit of this, but the last two months have been pretty terrible as far as getting anything done. I have again been battered down by assorted illnesses. At one point in September it hurt just trying to eat, and you don't need me to tell you how much fun that was. I've been working away like a dog on actual real-life job stuff, and a bit on my various projects (I've really been wanting to do something with the site, finally, but time and energy are scarce these days.)

I've also been spending a lot of time helping out other people with their projects, which unfortunately results in me often having to neglect mine. This isn't anyone's fault, but I am going to need to be a bit less generous with my time if I'm to get anything done. So if you have any favors to ask of me... put them off for now, please. I'm not saying like I'm becoming a hermit or something, but I'm going to need some breathing room in the next few months if I'm to get anything done.

I am right now at one of those crossroads in life, so I have been fairly hesitant about diving into anything big until I have a better idea of where I'll be in the near future, but there are a couple things I want to get the ball rolling on. Alright, that's the hard part out of the way. Here's the important stuff:

I will be talking about W/Double soon, in a "the series so far" fashion (check out the poll over there asking you what you think of the first half-dozen or so episodes!) Needless to say I really need to sit down and watch them again, because most of them are blurring together at this point. I like the main trio and the villains a lot, and the action's good. It's not quite feeling like 2009 is the Year of the W yet, but it's still young.

As for Decade, I'm sort of on the fence there. As the DVDs come out, I will be going back to review the episodes I didn't get to on original broadcast. As for the big final wrap-up thingy... well, it doesn't feel like the show's over! With the upcoming Double/Decade movie, and the recently-released Terebikun DVD adventure (which I'll need to review soon, because it is great) I've still got Decade on the brain. And to be honest, it feels a little weird reading my final Den-O thoughts now after 3 more movies have come out. I'll probably end up doing it in December, when we finally (maybe) know just who the hell Narutaki is.

As far as other things— V3 which I need to get back to, and Kuuga which I need to start, among others— I'm hoping to get going with those. The good news is that, at least for the moment, I'll be having some free time to actually try todo all this stuff. I am literally bursting with ideas all the time, now if I just actually had the time.

In any case, I will be posting the first of something I've been working on later this week. If you own a DX Decadriver, it might be of interest. Also, crossing fingers here, I will have a very special preview of something this Halloween! Anticipate it! Now I must go crawl into bed...

Also, because I randomly checked today: if you haven't seen this yet, you need to.


That, my friends, is an episode of the Toei Spider-Man series (English subtitled and streamed for free online) featuring Miyauchi "V3" Hiroshi, and it is one of my favorite things ever.
