And RX debuted in '88!

Got mixed up on years.

However, the month and days are accurate to what I saw, so it could mean that RX was delayed for another reason entirely or somebody mistranslated the date of it's premiere from the onset.

I know what it was! That "Big Gathering" Special Episode which premiered after Golgom was defeated. It showcased the Showa Riders from Ichigo onward in anticipation of RX, and the 23rd is seven days after the 16th. The early ads considered the "Big Gathering" as a beginning even though the legitimate first episode wasn't until the 23rd.

Would Lone Wolf Vulcan be considered an emergency form or just a sort of super form? Or both?

I see it as an emergency form since it probably has Fuwa make use of the 01 driver to compensate for the destruction of his Shotriser, and also emergency forms tend to look rougher than their main forms (001, Super Deadheat, etc.).

I see it also as a super form since it uses the 01 driver which is superior to the Shotriser, but also a Zetsumerise key and an Assault Grip, which may or may not make it a tier above Rampage or Orthoros.

Well, we haven't even seen the movie yet so it's kinda hard to tell :lol

I get the feeling it's a 'desperation' form when everything else has failed, but I could be wrong

Does anyone know the differences between the normal DX Shift Speed car and the Toei Hero World version? I looked up a comparison review, and to my eye it's the exact same paintjob and molding. It activates the exact same sounds, too! Bit perplexed by this one!

Seems it's a version where the white stripes glow in the dark! Pretty nifty!

Oh! That IS neat!

Somewhere, Aruto is watching this video and staring at his Progrise Keys...

Does anybody know why sparks are flowing out of flesh and (alien)blood Crisis monsters after KR Black RX pulls out his revolcane after stabbing them? Obviously Crisis robots will give out sparks from their wound but why are Crisis aliens not giving out green blood or something?A good reason might be they don't want to follow KR Amazon but does anyone know if the writers ever gave an explanation to this?

Nope.

To be fair, in reality, cutting through a robot with something like the revolcane would not create sparks either.

It's all just special effects in the end. And it looks super cool.

Odd question but does anyone know what car model is Gai driving? I wanna try and find a toy of it to put next to my SHF Thouser.

Do any of Ghost's' movies have Director's Cuts or are they all Theatrical ones only?

Now if I'm recalling correctly, in general I don't think any Rider after Fourze has a "Director's Cut" of anything, whether it be final two episodes or movies.

A good article series on Tokusatsu is covering Showa Riders.

https://tokusatsunetwork.com/2021/07...-rider-part-3/

What surprises me is how at the time of Super-1, some regions in Japan just outright cancelled it, leading to fans assuming it was just a short series!

:lol It's easy to forget everywhere else still has dedicated regional channels, as opposed to the UK where two big ITV companies ended up buying up all the rest and now there's only just local news! I do think local TV is a fairly basic thing for a country tbh, I think they could just do a new ''Channel 6'' even though there aren't only 5 channels any more but it could work lol

Another article on Showa Riders, specifically detailing ZX and Black with mentions of Black RX and the rumored "Black 3" which ultimately never occurred!

Is there any stream site for kamen rider with less ads? I love Tukoz but they gonna make their channel private, and i’m in no condition to be their exclusive member. I only use an ipad so i can’t download or torrent, btw

Wait, what?! Fumiya as the next Kamen Rider Black-related hero? Dang, the possibilities.

So who else other than myself is hoping we get some Kamen Rider Black Sun tidbits by Novemberish? The movie is supposed to be released next spring so November seems like a safe bet for some promo to start popping up, yes?

Movie?? I thought it was a new series like Amazons

Yep my bad, it's a series and not a movie. :lolol

Is Sophia officially Calibur after Hayato?
Which Saber riders will do V-Cinemas after Espada?

I'm not sure if Sophia will remain Calibur, but I hope she does.

I feel like the Saber V-Cinemas will focus more on groups and the team as a whole then individual riders.

Something about Trio of Sin feels very... singular? Like, if it was just Espada and Blades I could see there being more after it; but the fact it's Saber, Blades and Espada makes me feel like this'll be Saber's only V-Cin. Just a feeling though

I get that. I do hope we get more Saber content though. I've really enjoyed the characters and show overall.

Will there ever be a Build New World with Rogue? With Utsumi's actor gone, what's gonna happen to Mad Rogue?

It'd be nice if Gentoku got himself a new upgrade. Perhaps based on CrocodiCon!

If retooling the RabbitTank Sparkling can, we'd have a "CrocodiCon Shattering"?

For the unaware, the actor retired, he didn't die. The wording is a bit misleading here.

For sure, but Prime Rogue seems to have been established as his super / final form by now.

Well I didn't say Utsumi's actor died, I meant he retired gone not dead gone.

Imagine a new character who steals the Evol Driver from Utsumi and kills him in the process, as he plans to rebuild Faust anew as the new "Night Rogue". Gentoku would avenge him after all he's done in the Old World.

Anyone know the episode where Fujioka rip his leg on Kamen Rider? Suddenly wondering how they handle that episode. Did try to watch an episode before 2go show up, hut I think they already used the footage and dubbed by another person already.

And while I asking questions about the OG rider, can someone point out the non-filler episodes? I want to try to enjoy the showas, but I don't have that much time for filler

Episode 9 or 10. Afterwards, they had to reuse footage until the introduction of No. 2 in episode 14.

Thank you. Woah, they survive 5 weeks with only reuse footage.

I found it very eerie to watch; like they’re all talking about Hongou but he’s never there outside of the fight scenes. It’s completely unintentional but I feel the atmosphere it created lent itself well to Hongou’s feelings of being distanced from humanity

Eerie in a good way, eh? Always fell asleep for the first two episode, decide to jump to eps 13, and now I'm still awake in eps 16. Ichimonji feels more lovable than hongo.

Where would you put Heisei riders like Kiva, OOO, Wizard & Gaim to make guest appearances in the new Reiwa riders?

Revice.

Please elaborate what do you mean by 'put', since there's only 3 season for reiwa yet. But if you ask me my dream colaboration, I want a movie with Saber as center, in the world of OOO, and V3 as their mentor

That’s kind of difficult. Showa Rider was very episodic by nature. Usually the only things that really changed much about the show was when a new evil general arrived or the current one was killed. X and Stronger experimented a bit with longer running storylines, but they were still mostly MotW one- or two-parters.

If Kamen Rider Calibur gets himself/herself a V-Cinema in the future, what kind of Wonder Ride Book retool would give him/her as an upgrade? (Hopefully Sophia will remain Calibur.) Dragonic Knight-based, King Lion Daisenki-based or Tategami Hyoujuu Senki-based?

If they don't change the belt, dragonic or king lion would look weird and doesn't stable for the toys. Tategami eould do, I guess.

So seeing Die's Decade reviews it got me thinking, what would the AR worlds be like from W to Saber? I wont include Revice since that just started. Myself, I can picture Drive as a rehash of the Robin Williams movie Toys.
