Kamen Rider: General Thread

Nope, still looks like garbage.

Just watch Kamen Rider 1:

• A civil war between two factions of Shockers (Ambassador Hell's and Nova) to obtain the power of Alexander Eyecon, in which later at the hands of Mayu Tachibana (granddaughter of the late-Tobei)
• Enemy Mine confirmed between Kamen Riders & Ambassador

Kamen Rider 1 is really good that the only flaw it has is that Ghost feels shoehorned and is actually the worst part of the film.

Also speaking of which, how do change main titles? It should be Kamen Rider 1, not Ichigo. I wouldn't mind it if it was Ichi-gou, but Ichigo perpetuates the stupidity of what people think on rider names for 1 and 2.

I already proposed it to the Cut List and saved the source text for its sub pages. Might as well re-do the whole thing.

Some news, and such:

• Another trailer for the Ghost movie, showing little bit of Ex-Aid in action.
• Kamen Rider Amazons page is now in English (since the series will have an international release through Amazon Prime, IIRC), with the English title being Amazon Riders.
• SIC Kamen Rider Drive and Figurarts Kamen RIder Amazon Alpha.

Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!

....

Holy shit. SIC Drive looks awesome. I want them to do Type Tridoron now. It was always his best looking form to me.

One Strip! One Strip!

Yeep, amazing look.

Funnily, the window on the doorgun◊, looks like a piece of a bug wing.

This is true. I gotta give it to these guys for making Drive look so good. It's a shame most of the actual suits can't have this level of detail. I especially like how it finally looks like he's wearing armour too.

One Strip! One Strip!

Double post for RX and Kabuto 32.

RX:

• Crisis is employing the most diabolical of evil plans: Manipulate a little girl.

• And hey, it's Yuko from the previous ep. She's still good.

• Maribaron: Nice of her to survive. I needed a disguise for my evil plan. <Disguises herself as Yuko>

• Maribaron <as Yuko>: Now, since you are descendants of Crisis people, you can go to Demon World if you wish hard enough!

• Little Girl: Sure why not?

• Meanwhile, Black is fighting Rock asshole mutant.

• Rock Asshole Mutant: You could at least remember my name Rob!

• Fuck off man. Fuck off.

• So yeah, Rock Asshole Mutant can make hands appear from the rocks. But RX counters that shit with Bio-Rider.

• Maribaron <as Yuko>: Time to go to Demon world brat er... kid!

• Yuko: Don't go to Demon world! Demon world is a bad place!

• Maribaron <as Yuko>: We have candy!

• Little Girl: ....that's a pretty good argument.

• Yuko: I have your doll!

• Little Girl: Welp! There we go! <Goes over to real Yuko>

• Maribaron: Fine then! Violence it is!

• But RX uses his brand of noble violence to stop Maribaron's brand of evil violence, once again proving that violence is totally cool when the good guys do it. And so, the day is saved.

Kabuto:

• Hiyori has worms!...no wait, I mean Hiyoir is a worm!

• So her parents killed Tendou's parents and took their form, but Tendou's mom was pregnant with Hiyori? So in a sense, she really is his little sister. Well, that explains that. I assumed they had her parents had her after the copying.

• Tendou is gonna fuck everybody up to protect his sister. He's serious about this shit.

• And now there's a random beach in the middle of a building buried under the earth. That's weird.

So yeah, Kabuto getting pretty weird.

One Strip! One Strip!

Yeah, you're at the point where Kabuto definitely "started getting pretty weird."

Speaking of S.I.C., my Gaim just arrived. It'so gorgeous <3

Less "fruity", but with a heavy Japanese feel. It even has a chest with a stand if you want to display the weapons and armor in a classic samurai style. o.o

... And that's called jazz!

Well I imagine that for people watching the show at the time, the revelation that there were Worms on Earth before the meteor was a big thing, and I can picture people going nuts about who is already a worm when the show began.

I already know this, because I read it on This Very Wiki, but it's still cool to see things unfold. Between what we learned about the origin of Tendou's belt (though it's clear that they didn't quite collaborate tightly on how it went down, considering the slight differences between what happened in the movie and how things went in the TV show).

Tendou seems to have caught on to the presence of Hyper Kabuto (since his plan hinged on the latter taking Hiyori out of the way before his kick landed). He may have even realized who the latter is if he didn't know already.

One Strip! One Strip!

Double post:

Is there no new ep of Ghost this week?

One Strip! One Strip!

I wonder if it's been preempted by Golf again.

Reminds me of when I was a kid and watching Local TV on Saturday mornings only to have the morning block cut to one third because some sports game was on at the time. Shit was awful. I don't know how my 8 year old self bared it.

There was.It just hasn't been subbed.

I see.

Well, that's frustrating.

One Strip! One Strip!

Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?

That's pretty good, but speaking two words with no accent doesn't prove his english is that great.

Also, I forgot to mention in my previous post on the last ep, but little Tendou in that Flashback to what happened back when Hiyori's family died didn't look all that Japanese.

I wonder if they found a kid of mixed Ethnicity or something.

One Strip! One Strip!

Probably. I don't recall him having too much screentime after all did he?

Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?

Obviously, the one with the best English in the Kamen Rider series is Psyga:

Well, it's not a Kamen Rider thing, but Magi Green gives Psyga a run for his money....and is more alive.

One Strip! One Strip!

Double post:

Is episode 43 still not subbed yet?

One Strip! One Strip!

It is. It got released on Saturday.

Speaking Of Double,

Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?

I will say this much about W, of all the last minute power ups that happen in the summer movies his is one of the weakest. Getting more power from the wind almost makes sense with half of his power being Cyclone (and Fuuto being big on Wind power in the first place) but what caused the wind to start blowing harder at that exact moment?

The only other person who pulled his extra extra form out of his butt like that is Haruto (because where did he even get the Finish strike ring, especially since at that point, Fuyuki really didn't want him getting more powerful as Infinity?)

Outside of that, all the other movie exclusive power ups made sense (with the exception of Gaim, who didn't receive a movie exclusive form in his summer movie at all, but them again he's a god so he kinda didn't need it).

One Strip! One Strip!

See, the funny thing is that despite that being a complete and utter asspull, that scene is still one of the reasons why I insist that Double's movies appearances are all a shitload better than the actual tv series - shameless Rule of Cool is much less aggravating than shitty comic relief characters IMO.
