I was searching through Tamashii Web for new Gundam merch when they released a promo visual for the Ex-Aid Figuarts (this was way back then when Ex-Aid was airing). I got interested in the designs, poked around and discovered Kamen Rider Gaim. I decided to watch it.

Got hooked, proceeded to binge Wizard afterwards. I eventually moved onto Ex-Aid. And that's how I fell into the tokusatsu rabbit hole.

Side note, I couldn't afford the Figuarts back then because I was only 14-15. Finally got the Ex-Aid Figuarts (the mighty Action X set) a few weeks ago (my very first Figuarts) after I found them for a price I was happy to pay for. The sense of satisfaction I got was palpable.
