Godai's various forms are also handled very well and don't feel as gimmicky as other shows within the genre.

If and when I recommend people to start watching Kamen Rider I will probably point them in this series direction first. Happy Anniversary.

Kuuga tends to feel like a good start into the series with it being the series that revived the franchise.

Also good to see you posting Sniper.

That's also a perk about it. Kind of like using the the 2005 revival of Dr. Who to get people into that franchise.

That is a good comparison, especially given we already have the comparison of Joe odagiri, Kuuga's actor and Chris Eccleston, the ninth doctor.

Well at least you have some time and again good to see you and to be talking to you from time to time even though we did not talk that much in the previous forums.

Lol that totally works, they both have only made 2 appearances.


Kuuga is one of my favorite series, I just love the characters especially Godai and how he wants to protect everyone's smiles and how he gives Thumbs Up to everyone. Also he has awesome form changes. So Happy 15th Anniversary Kuuga! =)

Kuuga Titan is the best Kuuga form.

Bullshit. ZX's actor came back for Heisei/Showa, got to play himself & the villain McGann got the shaft into only appearing in a webisode/short that set up John Hurt. He got the short end of the stick, at least Shun Sugata got a real apperance in another top billed film of his franchise.

I love that episode it was fun.

Some confetti for the first official Heisei Rider! Kuuga was great. I loved the show from the beginning to end.
Also yay for double Kenji! (Tominaga Kenji, the suit actor for Kuuga and Urai Kenj, the actor who played N-Daguva-Zeba- they played together in the Sailor Moon musicals after Kuuga)
