I'm so excited to see it! I've been looking forward to The Train One for a while, and, y'know, not seeing a ton of trains, but I imagine they'll factor in once the show gets going. No spoilers, though!

I was lucky to grab the Zi-O Rider Kicks SHF releases when one of our wholesalers offered them. I've got a Blade and Den-O ready to go for future threads. (Den-O is the 10th anniversary one, I'm pretty sure.)

Unfortunately, that means that I might have to decide if I want to pay difficult-to-swallow aftermarket prices for some figures I missed out on, like Hibiki and Kiva. (The vampire one and the drumming one, respectively.)

I don't know. Maybe? We'll see what reissues maybe get announced, and where my disposable income is around then. It'll be awhile before I have to make any decisions, thankfully.

It is always nice to see you dig deep into Kamen Rider like this and then write it out, and I hope you keep it up only for as long as you continue to enjoy doing it! I, and I'm sure others, would hate for you to ever feel like you were obliged to do these write-ups just for other people. As long as you're still up for it, looking forward to you Opening Your Eyes For The Next... Blade (Blaiz!?).

The 134-page Google Doc is zero pages of responses. All internally generated! Responses were done straight to the boards!

Thanks for the kind words. Honestly, I feel less like I'm obligated to do these and more that I'm lucky y'all let me. It... I sort-of just showed up here and was like Hey I'm Going To Talk About Ghost As Someone Who's Watched Kamen Rider For A Few Months and you all let me. Folks actually encouraged me, which, unbelievable. I only do this to get to talk about these shows, so people regularly responding is... I mean, amazing. So nice.

I am looking forward to Blade! I don't love the helmet, but he's in an Ex-Aid special that I think is one of the smartest pieces of plotting I've ever seen.
