As if I wasn't sold on this enough already, Nao Nagasawa is playing one of the Nova Shocker leaders? I'm practically giddy. (I am giddy. )

So apparently Legend Rider Damashii may be appearing in this movie.
That's...cool? I mean, it's cool. Still hoping the Ghost parts are strictly secondary but eh, I like the Rider Damashii. I'm hoping this means there's a chance that some of the pre-Double Damashii may also make an appearance outside of Ganbarizing. That'd be cool. And considering the Mysterious 45th Eyecon, we know Takeru's probably gonna get SOMETHING new anyway. May as well make it something new anyway & friends.

Pretty interesting. For one, it does seem like the movie focuses on Rider 1. Second, at the end of the trailer Mayu cries over Takeshi, we see a scene where he's holding his chest in pain and if the crappy understandings of Japanese I acquired through watching Toku are to be believed the voice at the end says: "Hongo Takeshe saigo no henshin" Which would mean this is Takeshi Hongo's very last transformation. I actually thought about this when they announced the movie, but Hiroshi Fujioka isn’t getting any younger and the 40th anniversary would be the ideal time to say thank you and goodbye. Of course Rider 1 would still appear like he appeared in every Taisen movie, but this could be the last time we see Fujioka as Takeshi Hongo. Or it's just marketing crap and it's all fake drama. |

I still don't know how to feel about this movie. I think if Shocker wasn't so tiring to see thanks to so many post Decade movies, and Hongo's return two years ago didn't happen, I'd be a lot more hype.
I'm still interested in the movie, but I'm not foaming at the mouth in excitement. The new suit is...Growing on me, I guess? I still much prefer Shin Ichigou, though.

I'm a fan of the new look for his suit but for certain reasons.
I feel that the original design of the Kamen Rider suits were meant to reflect that they were a part of the wearer's body. After all, Shocker re-engineered normal people to be brainwashed, powerful super humans. I always felt that the original suits were designed to not just augment the human body but to adapt to the weakness of the individual's body. Hongo was the very first Kamen Rider, we all know that. I'm pointing this out because he is literally the very first veteran because of this. When he first started out fighting as a Kamen Rider, he was as young and energetic as the recent Riders we have today. However now he is old. When he was young, I feel the suit reflected that. He was faster, stronger, reckless. Hongo also healed faster as younger human beings do. The Kamen Rider suit reflected that. It protected the most vital areas that no amount of healing could fix. It still protected the rest of the body as well but with far less intensity. The arms and legs could heal with time. The suit made him faster, stronger, increased his reflexes, and made his body more durable while ensuring that he was as protected as he needed to be. Hongo is now the oldest of the bunch. He's not the lively young man anymore. Like most elders, he's fragile now. His bones are far more susceptible to breakage, his heart is weaker (as shown in the trailer itself since it shows that he may have cardiac issues), his strength is gone as is the speed youth gives. The Kamen Rider suit looks to have adapted to that. The suit now protects far more of his body because Hongo can't take nearly as many blows as he could years ago. It maintains the strength he had when he first started fighting against Shocker so long ago. Hongo isn't as fast as he used to be, with or without the Kamen Rider suit. When transformed, he definitely is faster but the additional armored points reduce his movement. Not only that but because he's more fragile, his attacks have to be more focused, powerful and have far less room for error. He can't take that risk anymore. One mess up can be detrimental to him. The suit reflects that. He's strong, fast but slow, more armored up. His attacks are focused. His Rider form is of a seasoned veteran who isn't who he used to be. It's the form of a respected elder thrown back into a young man's fight. |
