So, I discovered a site that seems to show a couple riders not listed on the wiki! There's some other obscure stuff on there as well, but everything else seems to be on the wiki, I think.
The site is here: https://eltigris.wordpress.com/2012/...-kamen-riders/ The riders in question are Kazaya Kamen Rider, which if Google Translate is to be trusted, was an unused idea for a series about a guy who cosplays as a Kamen Rider. The second one, which has the least amount of info, is a "Fog Rider", apparently from a novel based on J? I would assume it's probably just a showa-era style "monster copies the hero with the exact same suit" type deal. The last one is Kamen Rider Chophopper, another stageshow rider from Kabuto, who is hilariously ugly, even for a stageshow rider, and seems to essentially be a badly repainted/remolded Zectrooper head on a basic trench coat costume with a rider belt. The picture on the site isn't very good, but you can find some better ones by Googling his name in Japanese (googling it in English pretty much just gets you this site). Can anyone dig up any more info on these guys? EDIT: Looked up the stage show listed, and found a video of Chophopper. He's definitely a joke character, right down to his zecter being the hopper zecter, but facing outward in a truly unfortunate way: Last edited by SloopSloop; 02-16-2017 at 05:42 AM.. |

Do Kamen Riders do K-Pop?
Let's say some k-pop band invites KR Ex-Aid. Like TWICE. |

You mean like if they actually went back to grasshopper themes? In what way are you referring to?
Because I'd personally like to see Kamen Rider Shin get an update- I think Shin's one of the coolest, most badass riders ever- because I wouldn't care if I was Decade, Fourze, 555, Kabuto, Kuuga, or frankly any of the other riders: You shed your skin and mutate into a grasshopper mutant in front of me, I'm getting the f out of your way- go do whatever ya gotta do- just don't come near me. LOL |

I never watched Agito, but I would like to see Exceed Gills again- he was another very aggressive, organic, monster-like rider I also like.
I can agree, if this might be how you feel, that the riders have possibly become almost too high tech- because I've said this before: You steal their driver from them and they're done. A lot of them can't defend themselves without their driver. You can't do shit about a mutant/organic rider, there's nothing to steal, so if Gills or Shin show up and that's your plan: You're screwed lol. "But organic riders are also more vulnerable because they aren't wearing suits, their mutant body is still their human body after they revert back to normal- so any injuries they take in battle are still present after powering down." That IS true- that's the only bad thing about them. |

What has that to do with Kamen Rider's roots exactly?
If you mean more adult storytelling, Kamen Rider Amazons is a thing and will be getting a second season. If you mean literally everything else, then watch Ex-Aid or any other KR show, because Kamen Rider is still Kamen Rider at its core, aside from more merchandise and more modern stories not much has changed. Have you watched Amazons? You should totally watch Amazons |
