I have now finished Kamen Rider Kabuto!! I really do like that series, especially the way that the relationship between Kagami and Tendou changed throughout the series, as well as Hiyori's relationships with both of them. I actually do not detest her, which is an achievement on the part of the actress and the writers, since I have a rather legendary dislike of female television characters. Maybe it's because the series managed to stay away from making her a love interest... Now there's an idea.

I was also able to watch the movie, and the little Gattack short, so I can say I've seen everything (I think...?). The movie was an interesting AU, though I wish it had been longer to expound more on the relationships of people without Hiyori having to be the one thing that really connected the other big characters.

And the latest W... I can't even say anything. I'm just holding out for SOME type of reunion next ep. Why does Sunday have to be so far away?!

:( While I can understand disliking it when a woman's only a love interest on the show... even Yuuri? Even Sakura and Sae? Even Akiko? Even Shirley?

I admit, my favorite character list tends to be depressingly male-centric also, but... it's just hard to wrap my head around this concept.

(Edit- definitely trying not to tell you who should/shouldn't like! My own issues are coming into play with this: when someone said they didn't like a character in the fandoms I was into as a kid, it was often an excuse to break out a lot of sexist vitriol-- I don't think you're doing that here, but it does kinda toe the line here, which is why I'm interested in you expanding your opinion. <3)

Ah, sorry! I definitely like many/most of the toku female characters! Maybe I should edit my post to say that my dislike is mostly for Western television female characters. They almost always trend towards the silly love interest/"save me!" type, though there are notable exceptions.
