Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider OOO & W featuring Skull: Movie War Core Trailer

Okay so I am a little late on the post, but still, might as well put it up. It looks pretty solid. My favorite part about it is that the movie will go after Skull's story, which I thought would never be told.

Some spoilers that have been floating around about the movie:

-Narumi Sokichi and Shroud were partners.

-Akiko becomes Skull. Supposedly will see darker side of Akiko....that should be funny.

-Kougami foundation creates their own Yummy

-We see Skull's ultimate form called Crystal Skull.

Then again, all rumors. And I just don't have an exact source since they came from a lot of places. But one place I do know that had some of this stuff is jefusion.com. A great site, you should check it out!

Feelings On Tensou Sentai Goseiger...So Far

Coming off a series which I thoroughly enjoyed, Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, I really was excited to see how they were going Toei was going to conduct their next Sentai series. And so far....I have strongly disliked this series.

I won't say hate, only because the only Sentai series I ever hated, was Engine Sentai Go Onger. It was too kiddy, but it was for that type of audience, so I won't blame Toei, but at the same time, don't like them anymore for it.

Anyways, Goseiger's first episode was alright. We met the Angels from Gosei World, and immediately I realized....this is going to be a wimpy team. Just by their actions and there ridiculous smiles, well just mainly Eri and Alata, but still, they make up for the whole team. Hydo tries to be serious, but just looks dumb doing it. Monue is an okay character, I actually do not mind her. And then there is Agri, my favorite Senshi, but doesn't mean he is on my all time favorite list.

I think one of the main problems is the acting. It really is poor, epecially the actor playing Agri, he just doesn't seem to so emotions off very well. Then a comedic relief showed up in the series, Datas.......like we really needed a comic relief in this show *sigh*.

The series went on, and for a stretch, I was busy with Debuts with HJU. Posting a new video of a header of Gatai, then I thought the series was going to get better. AND then my knight in shinning armor came into the series....literally.

GOSEI KNIGHT!

I am going to talk so highly of Gosei Knight you may ask why isn't he my favorite. Because I hate how the Senshi is a Senshi, and not someone transforming into him. AKA Signal man and Bull Black. But I was hoping that the same thing happened with Bull Black would happen with Gosei Knight....of course not. THUS, he is not my favorite character. I was really hopping hat Nozumu's father would become Gosei Knight. Or Nozumu himself....OH!

I forgot about the Amachi family. We were introduced to Nozumu during the first episode, and Nozumu's home with his father is the home base for the Goseiger. Nozumu is the only human to know about the Goseiger, and his father is clueless. They are an OK duo of allies to the team, his father is kind of funny, and Nozumu seems more of a leader than Alata.

I stopped watching a little after they gained Super Goseiger powers, which I must admit, they are pretty cool. I am catching up on the series as we speak, and hopefully will be finished with catching up soon. I want to finish this series, but its just not my type of Sentai.

This is why I love Veoh and tvnihon.com, can always go and watch/download old Sentai series, which I will be doing it seems for awhile....

Kamen Rider OOO: Episode 1 Review

And its here....the moment of truth. After the straight awesomeness of Kamen Rider W, we are presented Kamen Rider OOO. From all the previews and what not, I think it will be a decent series. Its hard to watch any show after W, due to the fact it really came out of nowhere, and how everyone loved it. Well anyways, here is my review of the first Episode!

As the opening scene appears, we see two man dressed up in security outfits, who go into a room with many art attractions. They pretty much jizz in their pants of what they accomplished. The one seems nervous and tries to stay calm, but the other man reassures him that the part time security officer is sound asleep.

As they go on and look at all the priceless items, there seems to be a tomb thingy in the back of the room. Behind the tomb, is a pile of silver coins....and one red one. The coins form into a hand as the hand slickly climbs to the top, and turns the top of the tomb, releasing the new kajins, Greeeds.

Immediately we are then taken to a single file of men with bike helmets on running. One man tosses each of them coins, as they put the coins into what looks like to be a vending machine. The vending machine turns into a bike called Rider Vendors.....original.

Anyways one of them arrives at the Greeds escape and have their bodies as coins. as the man on the first bike there shoots at them, with no damage. He retreats, as the other Rider Vendor team shoots at the building, trying to destroy them with it. EPIC FAIL.

They Greeeds turn into their kajins forms finally, and I must say. I dig it. The one though does look strongly like the Joker Undead, but we aren't worried about that right now. So any who, a man in a red suit starts to bake a birthday cake, and sings 'Happy Birthday' in complete English. As the Greeeds kick the Rider Vendor Team's assholes, he then ends with. "Happy Birthday Dear....Greeedo" Greeedo is how they pronounce it, bare with me.

And after all that happens, the same red coin as before hits the sleeping security officer in the face, waking him up. It is revealed to be none other then Hino Eiji. Our new Kamen Rider.....*sigh* Anyway he gets changed as part of the room he is sleeping in collapses, and he is seen in his 'pantsu' haha I am sorry, I had to.

He is interviewed by the Detectives....Detectives.... I MISS YOU W!!!!

So they ask for his address, but he says he doesn't live anywhere, and also mentions he just started the job this morning. He says he just needs money and a clean pair of pants, but his clean pair of pants happens to be burnt. He isn't too happy about that.

So we then meet up with Greeeds, as something is seemignly wrong with their bodies, it looks like they are discengrated sorta. They mention it is cause of the lost off their core medals but a Greeed name Ankh.

Back to Eiji, he is upset about the job and starts to flip the red coin he had found before. He walks until he sees a vending machine....the same one that turns into the Rider Vendor. Anyways, he drops the coin under the vending machine, he tries to get it, but it is too far under. He then tries to lift it, but can't kick it out. Then, a demonic hand seemingly goes under the vending machine trying to get the medal, but at this time, Eiji drops the vending machine, right on the demonic hand. Haha! That was funny.

A girl finally comes over to help Eiji, and she lifts it completely off the ground, Eiji in shock, says nothing is wrong. The girl. name Hina, sees the demonic hand and runs off. Eiji then sees the hand and waves his arms up, knocking the coin out of the demonic's hand. Eiji catches it, and runs off.

While all this is going on, the Joker like Greeed is in a jewelry store. He finds and old lady and pulls out a silver coin, inserting it in the back of her head. Gotta admit, that was cool. A white creature comes out, and the Greeed says that it is her desire, it seems that desire is a focal point involving the coins. The white kajin starts to eat jewelry, as it becomes coins. He then transforms into a mantis Greeed, and goes to find the core medal. As he leaves the shop, he runs into the two detectives again, as he finds the smell of a core medal, and the detectives follow him.

Eiji is then still seen running from the demonic hand, as the demonic hand says that it is his body in that coin. But quickly, they are interrupted by the Mantis Greeed, asking for the core medal. The Mantis Greeed reveals that the hand is actually Ankh, who took the core medals before. The Mantis Greeed starts to fight Ankh, and easily does. Eiji seems upset, insisitng that it was too much. The detectives arrive, as the Mantis Greeed swerves their car into another, knocking both detectives out cold. Eiji takes the detective's gun, and shoots at the Greeed, to distract him from Ankh. The Mantis Greeed strikes at Eiji, as Ankh flies over to him and catches him. He says that Eiji has, "Touched his heart" and gives him the OOO Driver.

Quick note here, I like how Toei is have the driver be put on the waist, with the strap wrapping itself around the Rider. Happened since Decade, can't say I am not digging it!

Ankh reveals two more coins, and says that if Eiji inserts them, he can gain power to defeat the Greeed. Eiji accepts, as he says if it helps people, he will fight.

Quick note here again.......I like Eiji. Especailly after that. I got a Godai feel out of that. Good choice on this one Toei!

Eiji inserts the coins as he swipes the round thing and becames OOO.....but not after the song! And you know what.....it didn't bother me! Really didn't I thought it was cool.  And it was kinda cool when Eiji goes, "What was that song?" Ankh quickly comes over, "Don't worry about the song!" Haha, all Toku fans rolled on the floor on that one. He then fights the Mantis Greed and does a good job, but starts to lose. Ankh comes and gives Eiji a 4th medal telling him to put it in the middle. The Mantis Greeed runs at Eiji, but without looking at him, kicks the Greeed away while he stares at the coin. Once again, awesome!

Eiji gains a new form, and defeats the Mantis Greed. Eiji then sees the phone of the one detective ringing, as he runs over to help him, but Ankh attaches his arm to the detective, as he finds the 'perfect body'. But we also see that the person calling the detective was his sister....Hina! The woman who helped Eiji and the vending machine.

We then see the red suited guy....yes singing happy birthday, but this time to.....OOO?

And that's the story! Oh, and one of the Rider Vendor team members opens a can of soda....and it turns into a bird. Weird.....

But overall......8/10. It was actually good, some things could have been better. Wish we could have seem the red suited guy a little more....and not singing happy birthday. And a little more of the Greeeds, and I wish we could have at least found out their names? But other than that, excellent debut OOO. No, it was a GOOD debut.

Kamen Rider W: Episode 49 Review/Kamen Rider W: Series Overview

Kamen Rider W: Episode 49 Review

Warning: SPOILERS

And it is here, the FINAL episode of Kamen Rider W. I have been waiting for this since episode 48 like a kid waits for his mom to come home with his new video game. I was to say the least.....impatient. But it is here, and the time has come for my review.

The show starts normally with clips from the previous episode. Of course, they show the most emotional scene, where Shotaro de henshins and Phillip becomes part of the Earth's memory. *Sigh* Anyways, the episode goes on, as Shotaro is arguing with Santa-Chan and a man wearing a blue hat(This is important, remember this). The episode continues on, as we find out that it has been 1 year since Episode 48. Shotaro then has a flashback of  visitng Wakana, in what looks like to be a hospital room, with a woman police officer sitting next to the door. Wakana asking if he was sent by Raito aka Phillip. Shotaro stays quite, as Phillip told Shotaro to not let Wakana know of his sacrifce. The flashback ends, and Shotaro leaves back to his place, and meets a young boy name Akira.

Akira's sister has been captured by a group of young men calling themselve EXE, revealed to him by Watcherman, Queen and Elizabeth. Shotaro goes and finally finds EXE. We see that they obtain Gaia Memories, and indeed, have the Akira's sister. The leader of EXE says they are, "Succesors of the Museum" Shotaro pulls out the Lost Driver and and the Joker Memory saying, "Let's go, Phillip" quickly realizing that it is just him. Another very emotional moment. *Sigh*

But, the mood changes, when we FINALLY see, Kamen Rider Joker! He is pretty awesome, and Shotaro pulls off the solo rider with ease. Quickly defeating the Anomalicaris Dopant with his Rider Punch(I smiled when I saw that :) ) The flashback at the begining of the episode contiunes, Shotaro is now seen back at the hospital where Wakana is. And.....yeah, she breaks out. Suprise suprise.

Wakana seems to have her Dopant powers even without transforming. Shotaro, Wakana, and Ryu meet on the roof as they talk. Ryu henshins into Accel going into attack Wakana, with Shotaro stopping her, because Shotaro feels that Phillip's sacrifice would be pointless if Wakana was hurt. Wakana quickly asks Shotaro what he means.  Shotaro reveals the fate that Phillip was dealt, and dissapears into data.

Once again, the flashback ends (Don't worry, it comes back). Shotaro goes back to his office, as he hears Phillip's voice. He quickly runs in looking and asking for Phillip. He then sees that it is just the Frog Pod's recording of Phillip's voice. Akiko quickly apologizes, as Shotaro quietly goes off into Phillip's base. Akira then gets a text from his sister to meet her. But wait......Flashback!

Wakana returns to her mother, Shroud,as Wakana pronounces she will complete the Gaia Impact. Shroud tells her her answer is in the Gaia Library. Wakana confused why her mom was helping her, Shroud says they are family.  Shroud then falls into Wakana's lap, and dies peacefully. And......flashback over....for now...

The Akira goes out to find his sister, and succeeds. Meeting up with EXE, they take him to his sister, as she apologizes, and takes out the Ocean Memory, giving it to the leader of the gang, as she was the one to give them the Memories.. The Akira and his sister run, as one of the gang members becomes the Coackroach Dopant (Him again....)

They are met by Shotaro, as he does the Joker henshin, but with more style and a pose. Awesome to say the least. Ryu comes in and handles the other gang members without henshining. Shotaro defeats the Coackroach Dopant, and destroys the Ocean memory, and the Edge Memory

The group consisting of Akira and his sister, Shotaro, and Akiko, start to walk, as they are met.....by guess who....the man in the blue hat! (Sorry, couldn't figure out his name) He changes into the Energy Dopant and shoots at Shotaro seemigly knocking him down. With the group stunned, Shotaro gets up unharmed! 

As he seems the Xtremem Memory, who took the blast. He quickly thanks it, but then realizes, the Xtreme Memory was destroyed with Phillip! The Xtreme Memory shoots out a green ray.....revealing Phillip! Shotaro stunned, Phillip reveals that Wakana sacrificed herself. Wakana sacrificed her body so Phillip could take hers, as she joined her family to become Clerks of the Earth. Phillip tearfully thanks his family for their sacrifce.

Throughout the episode (forgot to mention this) The camera was seen through a point of view of what looked like to be the Xtreme Memory. It indeed was the Xtreme Memory holding Phillip while his body was being re created.


Shotaro happy as I ever seen him, pulls out his Joker Memory, as Phillip pulls out his Cyclone Memory, as they both become Kamen Rider W! THe credits roll through the battle, and that is the episode!

As this is the end of the series, I am not upset. The awesomness of this episode made this series go out with a bang! It ended on a positive note, we finally saw Kamen Rider Joker. We got to see Wakana's kind side aain. And did I mention....PHILLIP LIVES! So this was as good as a episode as 48 was. I am okay with the series ending. Onto Ozu and Movie war!

Here is episode 49:

Part 1

Part 2

Kamen Rider W: Series Overview

When the rumors and pictures started flying all over the net about W during Decade's run, I was its biggest critic. I never thought the two in one rider would work. Phillip looked too much of a sissy. And a detective Rider series? Give me a break.

Then the opening theme song came on.....and I fell in love.

I enjoyed the maturing of Shotaro and Phillip throught the series. Along with Akiko and Ryu. When the story started, the series was mainly focused on Shotaro. Phillip was just the other half. Few times was his family mentioned, but never was a focus. Until later on in the series.

Ryu then showed up, and become a great addition to the team. Hesisitant of W, he to matured towards the team and became a very valuable all.

Akiko was a pain at first. Couldn't stand her. But, she also matured and became an awesome part of the team. 

The Sonozaki Family were perfect villians. The secrecy behind their plan, and Foundation X. How Phillip was Sonozaki Raito. And how he actually died and was just data. Saeko's betrayal with Dr. Isaka. Wakana's total mood swing. Shorud being the mother of Wakana and Saeko, and the ex-wife of Sonozaki Ryuube. Ryuube being great head of this evil clan. Although I didn't like one thing.....

WHY DID SONOZAKI KIRHIKO DIE SO SOON! I mean really....he was the definition of awesome. And you kill him off? No......NO!

And the Dopants as the villians were cool. The Gaia Memories were just plain great and I loved the case's that involved them. Thinking it was one person, when it was actually the one who you thought it wasn't. The series was just that awesome, that you can't find a lot wrong.

My final verdict.....10/10. I seriously think this was the perfect series. And when I get older and have some money, I will buy every toy that I can for W. And the DVD, and I can't wait to see A-Z Memories of fate. It was that awesome, I hope you guys feel the way I do.

Kamen Rider W: Episode 48 Review

Warning: SPOILERS

It was by far the most emotional episode that I have ever seen in Kamen Rider, no, ANYTHING IN TOKU. I never thought I could physically tear up over a Toku show. But I was wrong. Seeing two people die, Saeko and Phillip. And seeing Shotaro, without a partner, after getting used to the whole 'two in one Rider'. We are now one episode  away from the end, and I must say....I am not ready for the end.

With the Double and OOO Movie War coming in the fall sometime, I have a feeling we may be left with a cliff hanger at the end of 49. Just not ready for that. But there will be a good ending to it. One way or another. I am excited for 49, and finally seeing Kamen Rider Joker in action will make the ending just that much more better. Having Phillip's gift be the lost driver and a blank book, which seemed to be Shotaro's, and a note asking Shotaro to protect Fuuto, it really put in perspective how the growth of Shotaro and Phillip had over the show. From Phillip mocking Shotaro how he was still, 'Half Boiled.' to now, when he leaves Fuuto all to Shotaro's hands.

But, after everything I said, the best part, is when Shotaro stopped Phillip from de-henshing. Few words were said, but the final words, could have touched everyone's hearts. "Goodbye." "Ah." Of course both were translated from Japanese, but still. I just can't believe.....Phillip is gone. W is now Joker. And Episode 48, will be forever known, as one of the most Epic Episodes in Toku series.

Here is the Series RAW:

Kamen Rider OOO: Preview

Since the announcement of OOO making an apperance in Kamen Rider W :A-Z Memory of Fate, leaks of different pictures, sounds, and now the previews of OOO have been shown. From my early impression, Toei is pulling another W. With that, I mean Toei is trying to go away from what we are used to from Kamen Rider. They did this with W, by making it a detective theme. And now, OOO looks crazily different, but interesting.

When W was first starting to get leaked out, I really had my doubts. I NEVER thought it would succeed. And obviously I was wrong, and W is my favorite Rider show of all time (I can't believe I saw a show better than Faiz...).

The Rider Belt noise is.....well you be the judge:


Yeah.....its going to be hard to get used to.

Otherwise, OOO seems pretty cool and different. I get a Amazon feeling somehow. The show also reminds me of Agito. THe only reason, it is a direct continuation from W. And I LOVE THAT.

I liked Decade, but I didn't like the whole AU Worlds thing. Becasue I always liked how all the Riders were in one world. It just made it to confusing for me.... But otherwise, it looks pretty cool. But here is the latest OOO preview!

Kamen Rider W: Finale Trailer Released!

Awesome awesome awesome! We get to see Kamen Rider Joker in action finally! And wait.....Shotaro dies? What is going on?! And 2 weeks seems so far away...
