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.
Yeahh, what got me to realize is that we know Star Wars is one if the oldest pop culture icons, but then the last I remember is that the franchise celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2017, and Kamen Rider is about to celebrate its 50th next year, and that's where the realization take place.

I don't know if this counts but I recently cannot stop myself from looking for the film crew in helmet reflections.

I mean, they sound really similar in Japanese.
Also, I have a feeling that "gathering round" is a reference to bullet rounds, making it a pun on "gatling round".

ZI-O II's two swords are the two hands in a watch/clock, and when he puts them together for the King Girigiri Slash, that's the hands striking 12 or whatever before coming down on the enemy.

I still don't think the Saikyo Girade should have had Zi-O's whole face on it. What a peculiar design decision...

It took me months after finishing Gaim to realize the Kachidoki gun has a turntable because the lockseed was given to Kouta by a D J

I was today years old when I found out that Akira Hamada was not only Juzaburo Nanba in Kamen Rider Build...

but also Mr. Titan in Kamen Rider Stronger, 42 years before. Wow.

He also had a small role in Kamen Rider OOO as the director of a hospital; his surgeon daughter was used to create a Yummy.

What, that was him?!? The difference between those characters was too strong!

Ah yes, one of the more... questionable, episodes of OOO.

Still, that's pretty rad. Had no idea it was even him in any of those roles.

I completely forgot what Fourze Rocket State's finisher was like, so I didn't realise until today that Zi-O Fourze Armour's finisher is a direct reference to it.

Just realized that OOO's super forms are meant to be opposites; PuToTyra is ice based whereas TaJaDol is fire based.
