KR Blade - it's all about Chalice, ain't it?

WOW.

I just finished the series. I haven't watched the extras yet (Missing Ace, Blade vs Blade, etc), but I just now finished the final episode. And... WOW.

That was great. That was really, really great.

I was kinda right, in a way it really was all about Hajime/Chalice. But, around the middle of the series (I guess when the writing staff changed?) Kenzaki started becoming much more compelling. Leangle/Mutsuki never really went much of anywhere as a character, I could do without him, but Kenzaki really shined brighter and brighter as the series went on. And at the end... like I said, WOW.

KR Blade was freakin' great. A much more satisfying story than Kabuto, I must say. I still like Kabuto just fine, but Blade was definitely a better story.

Mmmm... and Wild Chalice was neat. I wish I coulda gotten the SIC of him!!!

WOW.

The last few episodes of Blade are why it is my favorite KR series. With the exception of Lelangle, who I didn't care for all that much, in any of his incarnations, all of the Riders in Blade were awesome characters. And the last few minutes of the final episode... I could watch that a million times and never get bored with it.
