What is a net movie though? Is it part of the series?

Net Movies come out with nearly every big sentai/rider theatrical release. They're literally a series of web (Net) short videos that go up online in Japan. The sub groups collect them all together after they've aired and sub them. They're usually just fun little clip show quiz game mystery type things.

The Super Hero Taihen Net Movies went along with the first Super Hero Taisen. They were a series of murder mysteries between all the riders and sentai to figure out who murdered who with what in absurd situations. They do these videos every year. The Super Hero Taisen Z Net Movies were even just subbed a bout a month ago and feature not only Riders and Sentai but Space Sheriffs and a brief sort of cameo by Baltan from Ultraman.

You mean B***an? :p

I laughed so hard at that one.

Watching episode 8 right now...

The police responded to a report of an explosion. With clear evidence at the scene that one did in fact occur.

And they fucking leave because they're too busy?

Riiiiight...

It's Japanese police. Toku has taught me they are nothing but idiotic morons. :D

Where, may I ask?

So what I've gotten from this rabbit hole so far is that:

This guy really likes his sunglasses at night. Just cause he can.

And hes another high level Undead like Chalice/Hajime.

Kenzaki is still screaming his ass off.

Seriously, I would imagine the actor probably had a case of lozenges for this series. Oh, and he's persistently angry about various things.

Unlike Tachibana who can't make up his mind if he's a badass

or the cover of KQ (Kamen Quarterly)

Or if he's just losing his mind.

Personally, I think this is the funniest screen grab ever from a series. I think it's the actual emotion he's showing is more like bad burrito than fear.

Kotaro is still clueless, but grows on you quickly.

And Hirose is literally just along for the ride and to be the Alpha 5 of the bunch

Which is sad, because I like her character. Still more useful than Koyomi.

And I completely got a Highlander vibe from this scene:

Which makes this a really cool series to keep watching. I'm having to force stop myself from watching the entire thing, mostly because of midterms.

Oh, and the morality pet, aka Amane almost got blowed up. I <almost> felt bad, but she's become the Transformers Prime 'Miko' of this series to me. I'm sure I'll care more, but I do feel pretty bad for Sayoko. All she wants is love, and Tachibana is just pathetic.

It's a fashion statement.

TACHIBANA-SAN!!!

:lolol

Yes he does. :)

She gets excellent episodes, so be patient.

I love your Blade posts. :lol

^ Thanks! I think it's the fact that I'm actually doing this little analysis that helps to understand the characters. It seems like the older the series, the more depth it had. It probably has to do a lot with the same argument for/against the bad guy of the week format that some of the more recent Rider series have had. I don't mind it either way, I just am along for the ride myself.
