So I decided to watch the most recent followup they did to the April Fools joke Toei made yesterday. If only because it felt weird they'd follow that up in some fashion...

Um...

NANI?!

Genm vs. Thouser when?

Just watched the first episode of Black. Absolutely increblible. Felt like a Kamihoriuchi episode at times. Full of stunning and iconic visuals. I'm so excited for Black Sun, because if it even comes close to being as good as this, it'll be one of the best things to come out of this franchise in years. Don't quite have time to watch the entire show right now, but I'm definitely tempted to go through one of those lists of just the main plot relevant episodes sometime soon, because that was one of the best first episodes in the franchise

"You have successfully summoned Switchblade to the thread."

I agree though, Kamen Rider Black's first episode is fantastic.

Also agreed. A work of art.

I was glad to see Black turn up on Toei Tokusatsu World last night too, I loved it, I should get round to RX and other Showa shows sometime as well!

That fist clench when he begins transforming is just really cool. I just love how it is a mix of the first two riders.

I mean, yeah.

The first sixth episodes of Black are some of the best opening episodes of KR.

Just wish most of the rest of the show had followed through on its tone and atmosphere.

W is also up at the Toei Tokusatsu channel.
