Let's go Stronger!

One of my favorite Showa riders! Black RX is just too good otherwise Stronger would be #1.

It is time

Everything about this show is perfect!

*looks fiercely at you all, daring you to voice a contrary opinion*

Cool! I've been wanting to watch Stronger, as he's one of my favorite Showa designs alongside Super-1 and Amazon, and his theme song slaps. I'm guessing Faiz is going to be this weeks Heisei show.

Looks like it's appease dreamcastegirl weekend on Toei's youtube channel. :p

The first episode of Hibiki is truly something else and worth watching even if you've never seen a single episode of Hibiki.

I can very highly recommend it!!

Well, I'm a monkey's uncle...

But I'm still going to see it, and seeing everyone else is recommending it, I'm sold. I'll be watching this, Stronger, and the 2 Blade episodes this weekend, that's for sure.

The musical sequence still gets me to this day.

and it looks so much better than the old TV Nihon version.

Anyone gonna watch the 1st episode of the original Kamen Rider on April 3rd, 50 years on that day.

Know what? I think I will!

I watched it when it first went up but that sounds like a fantastic, small little way to celebrate. Thank you for the idea!

THIS is what I was hoping for!! We already had Shin on here, and now for this thing... yeah, they just uploaded ZO in its entirety. Hoping they'll do J later but this is so so good as is!

Okay so my guess is we're either getting J tomorrow.

Or we're getting another Episode 1 of a Heisei Rider, and next week we get J and Episode 2 of said Heisei Rider.

I guess they just released it straight up since it doesn't actually have any episodes.

Leather jackets with rolled up sleeves and fingerless gloves.

Is there anything more Showa?

Kidnapping a scientist's child.

And then turning said child into a weapon.

So it was a joint venture with Bandai.
Where there any Kamen Rider ZO toys released at the time?

If I recall correctly, ZO was more of a movie for teens and adults so it mostly got video games and some vinyl figures.

The more you know.

Yes!!!

That climax will never not be amazing.

God I’ve got 5 days off in a row coming up so these two could not possibly have dropped at a better time. I’m so happy about this; these two movies were some of the first Rider things I watched (after Fourze and catching up with what there was of Build at the time), so this is actually feeling a little nostalgic!

Announcements for Anniversary week.

April 5th will see them release “All Together! All Seven Riders” worldwide.

April 6th will see the release of “Kamen Rider W: Forever A to Z! The Gaia Memories of Fate!” everywhere except Thailand.

And April 7th will see them release Kamen Rider: Reiwa the First Generation everywhere it’s not already on YouTube store (mostly Asian territories)

(That said, I haven’t seen this coming from anywhere and it might be an April’s fools)

If memory serves, "All Together! All Seven Riders" is the special which debuted after Stronger and before Skyrider, right?

Why would the W Movie NOT be available in Thailand?

Toki wo, koero sora wo, kakero kono hoshi no tame.

Oh nice

This is what all other shows must be measured against.

Considering my current ongoing thread, I feel called out somewhat.

There's no smoke without fire, so they say. :p

Yeah, I saw these early on when I was getting into Rider, along with Decade, the First and the Next, the 2016 Ichigo movie, the Den-O and Decade Onigashima movie, and the ongoing at the time, Build.

Also, Black is one I've been itching to see, that and the rest of Stronger's released episodes. Unfortunately, all those Spring Anime are getting released at the same time, so I'll try to catch up as best I can.

To anyone wanting to watch Black, it's best if you watch select episodes rather than watching all the episodes. Since it's in that early time frame, most of the episodes feel pretty much the same.
It would take time for me to make a watch list, since you're not missing out if you watch the important ones.

*shuts the door on you before you can finish speaking and walks away shaking her head sadly*

Hard disagree. Kamen Rider Black has some of the best MOTW episodes of the Showa era. Plus, the production values in the show are just sublime. I'd cherish all 51 episodes and both movies.

Well now, this release on the channel is topical now and well placed.

I was in the middle of rewatching episode 1 when I paused to check what the announcement was. It all came together.
