Hikari Sentai Maskman alumni Issei Hirota who played the role of Akira/Blue Mask and Yarinin Toppa in Sekai Ninjasen Jiraiya is an actual Chinese martial arts practitioner who has trained even prior to Maskman.
He was Japan's representative in the 1991 World Wushu Championships winning first place for swords and overall second place. He currently coaches people in his personal classes called Shishin Bujutsu Club(Four Symbols Martial Arts Club, Four Symbols here referring to the Azure Dragon, Vermillon Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise). His skills also shined behind the scenes of Maskman as he helped his suit actor Tsutomu Kitagawa with his Chinese martial arts moves and also advised in the poses for the Maskman team based on his experience. Kitagawa later used this experience with Hirota for motion capture work for a video game, Dairanger, and also as an advisor for Gekiranger. |

Post-Gokaiger he seems to have grown his hair again. Honestly it sucks we never got a Maskman-centric episode cause he would have shown some legit martial arts moves from years of experience. I am still glad we got a taste with the Dairanger ep but would have been nice to see him pull off fancy sword techniques alongside Joe/Gokai Blue.

So I talked about this on the Geed thread but after a sudden realization it seems that Geed is a portmanteau of the words "GENE" and "SEED". Now, having seen episode 1 we all know that this pretty much sumps up Geed in a nut shell. Because Geed carries the Ultraman genes while himself being the seed of Belial. This is not official trivia but it is too good and obvious to ignore.

Kamen Rider Build Sento Kiryu's name is a unique one. Especially since his name is a direct nod to his default form TankRabbit. Sento is composed of the two kanjis Sen 戦 and To 兎. Sen in this case derives from Sensha 戦車 which means tank and To is the kan'on for rabbit. With this we can clearly see that the default choice of a tank and rabbit is not a mere coincidence and just a form that focuses on the balance between power and agility, but also a direct reference to our protagonist himself.

Something I stumbled upon recently but has been out there for a while.
Apparently inverting the red and blue on Kamen Rider Para-DX will change his color scheme to Ex-Aid's Double Action Gamer's teal and orange. Also, adjusting the hues to 99 will turn Para-DX's color scheme similar to Ex-Aid's default Magenta and green.

Time to unearth this again.
*chucks shovel to the side* So here are a few random facts about Ginga Blue actor Shoei. - Before debuting as Ginga Blue, actor Shoei was a track and field athlete in college specializing in javelin throwing. His best record for the 1996 Inter-University Athletics competition was 73.9 meters, roughly 242.45 ft. - After graduating, a year prior to Gingaman, Shoei went to America alone and had a chance to walk the runway for Giorgio Armani in 1997. - He recently appeared in Osomatsu-san(an anime where the main sextuplets all had a role or two in tokusatsu) as himself in season 2 episode 3.
