You cannot easily agree on second life as data tho. Kuroto approves like what he said to Nico, but everyone goes apeshit on him for that like Kiriya.

Just a neat little detail I noticed in the latest Zero-One: Jin pulls the SlashRiser's trigger with a similar one-hooked-finger motion as when he used the ForceRiser.

I just saw the Kanji for Den-O for the first time and realized that it means Electric King.

Close.

Den-O's motif its trains, right? The 'Den' part comes from the first kanji of 電王 (den sha), or 'electric train'.

So yes, while it is literally 'Electric King', it's more appropriately 'Electric Train King'.

This is one of those things that unfortunately gets lost in translation.

I guess that makes sense. I haven't actually seen Den-O yet, so I didn't think of the trains thing.

Also 電車 is densha. 電王 is Denou, or Den-O. I'm sure you probably just typed the wrong thing though, since both are relevant to the conversation.

This might just be one of the worst ones yet... but I genuinely didn't realise until now that Kiwami Arms' head crest gets decoration behind it so that it becomes the series logo.

The series logo is also Gaim's personal symbol, a "mon" of sorts, a coat of arms. Many Riders in Gaim have them, although few display them in-universe and they are mostly used for merchandising.

Gaim also wears it on his vest in Jimba Lemon form and more prominently on his chest in Kachidoki form.

The Energy Riders also have theirs on their chest plate.

I just realized that Kamen Rider and Super Sentai is actually older than Star Wars lololololol.

Crazy right! The international availability of foreign films (and especially animation) has influenced a lot of western media. George Lucas has often stated his love of Japanese cinema and motifs.

Kimba The White Lion is the big one I always think about when considering movies other studios "borrowed" from never thinking people would put it together.

I can't quite explain it but Rampage Gatling has some kind of wordplay going on between gatling and gathering.
