So I've just started reading Kamen Rider Spirits through a manga app, and it ends at Chapter 63, despite there appearing to be a fair few chapters after than (plus the entierety of the Shin Spirits manga, which I'm assuming is equally unsubbed). Basically, I'm wondering if there are any finished sources for the entire manga, and if I could be pointed in the right direction.

I don't think there's much interest in subbing them. The W manga only got about eight issues subbed, too.

Yeah, unfortunately I don't think any fansubbers are interested. I've been thinking of copping the Mandarin editions myself (I'm semi-fluent) just so I can finish the story.

There is a community for translating manga out there, unfortunately, it's done via commission. So unless you got the dough (Which would be a pretty penny if there's a lot of untranslated chapters), it's gonna be pretty rough.

At one point, Dark Horse did ask people on what manga that they want to see get translated back in 2011 and many people ask for Kamen Rider Spirits. Sadly, nothing happen.

They did? It's a shame that they apparently didn't follow up on that, then.

I'm still surprised that Viz translated the Ultraman manga. Ultraman media as a whole seems to have more official translations available in the West than KR.
Which is a shame, because SPIRITS embodies everything that is awesome about Kamen Rider. "Won't you believe in him? Even if there is no God or Buddha, there is Kamen Rider." *Semaru Shocker intensifies* |

It helps that Ultraman had an actual presence in the west, attaining decent popularity due to it's dub in the 60's. Meanwhile, KR had 2 flops. It's not too surprising that, even with all the legal bullshit behind it, Ultraman media is still bigger over here.

I used to read this manga very long ago but after they switched to Shin Kamen Rider Spirits I lost track. A shame they do not intend to animate this last time I heard iirc.

Kamen Rider has more fans in the Western Toku fandom since more Toku fans seem to talk about it more and has more fan sub support. Other than the shows on Cruchyroll, it seems like Ultraman rarely gets fan sub support from English fan subbers.
