All this talk of Manga Black makes me wonder if this is a backdoor attempt to redistribute the Black Manga!
Think about it. The OG Rider Manga by Ishinomori is about to be released in the West officially. Gorenger already got its Western release. Even Transformers got their due. What if the intent is to eventually get to Black as well, with Black Sun being intrinsically connected to those efforts for the sake of recognition and distribution? The Western Public at large knows only so much of Rider, but a new entry meant to reference an old series which has both TV and Manga connections might help with that issue. Recognition & Distribution in this case can refer both to the Japanese Market & the Western Market! |

I don't think they'd be doing a full blown reboot just to distribute manga in a foreign market, no

Black Sun looks like an awesome, refined version of the manga version of Black! Love that they're calling Shadow Moon a Rider!

Oof, I don?t like what I?m seeing. At all. The design looks like a generic SIC-inspired Showa Rider, nothing about this reminds me of Kamen Rider Black. I do like Showa SIC designs, but if the whole point is to remake Kamen Rider Black and the suit looks nothing like Kamen Rider Black then... yeah.
And Battle Hooper ? no, just no. They completely massacred my boy. Unforgivable. I'm gonna give the show a chance for sure, but the designs don't work for me.

Again, thats why i said love letter to ishinomoris design. They took aritisttic liberties to take the design, break it up, and add a bit more modern flair, also helping the design work as a physical suit to work with.

Not feeling it. Yes, reference to the manga, but just because it's Ishinomori's design doesn't mean it's inherently good

Real ironic too, considering how anti-racist the story is. Last edited by MKDremare; 11-21-2021 at 06:43 PM.. |

... yes, Cyborg 008's original design was awful; what does that have to do with anything, again?
