I don't go to Kamen Rider expecting positive representation, especially not something that's over ten years old (Wizard was twelve years ago!? What the flipping heck!?). I think Rider Time Ryuki and Revice are the only two times queer characters have been portrayed in a way that wasn't meant to be a joke. It would be nice to see more characters that aren't high camp but for a number of reasons I don't expect it.

Anyway Sakamoto is at his Sakamoto-iest and its really hitting uncomfortable levels when done to a woman acting as a 15 year old.

I'd have to go back and check my comments on the film from a few years ago, but I'm pretty sure I listed this as peak Sakamoto.
