>Cartoon Network is attempting to use their "Toonami Technique" to create more diverse kids programming
How does /co/ feel about this?
Why don't they just call it Kamen Rider?
>>77379145
Maybe it's something to do with Kamen Rider : Dragon Knight.
Or they just wanted to translate it.
>>77379111
So American Kamen Rider? Might be cool. Might.
Until they reveal he's a disney/ nick tier live action show with a transformation sequence and not much else.
>>77379111
is he wearing a tire around his chest?
You guys know this isn't real right?
Son of a bitch...
I thought we were past this live action on CN bullshit?
>>77379111
I feel like its not a comic or cartoon.
>>77379111
1) What is their Toonami Technique?
2) Looks like an action show so it will get no advertising and will only be played at 5:00 am.
>>77379182
Shit, I would have welcomed it.
>>77379165
Car themed.
>>77379191
if I had to choose between more low-budget looking AT/TTG lookalikes and some tokusatsu live action, I'll take live action.
SU is great but the animation/drawing detail at time is easily the weakest part of the show.
>>77379215
Damn shame.
>>77379191
Kaman Rider is more cartoony then the manchild/tumbler cartoon shit that they currently have on.
>>77379226
Shit I didn't even notice at first but he's actually wearing a tiny car on his wrist as well, and his shoulder things look like the sides of bumpers.
>>77379241
I probably would too, but its the principle of the thing, dammit!
Where do you guys watch Kamen Rider Drive btw?
>>77379258
Heh... now post Starfish Hitler.
>>77379262
You should see Kamen Rider Gaim. Dude is fruit themed.

Didn't think it was the one i was looking for
And for the record, it'll probably be called 'Power Rider', if it ever comes to America again.
>>77379329
I personally liked Drive better than those 3, though I think they are a must too. These 4 are very western friendly.
In fact, every 2010s Hesei sans Gaim is very western friendly. Detectives, Animals, Spaceships, Wizards, Cars, Ghosts... Just dub 'em and go.
>>77379412
>Kamen Rider Meteor
>Not Komet Rider
I seriously wouldn't mind if CN aired old tokusatsu shows late at night.Even better if they gave them really poor dubs.

>>77379487
Kamen Rider is about super heroes who use their enemy's power against them.
I am guessing what you read was either Ryuki, Ryuki's adaption (Dragon Knight), or Blade.
>implying they'll ever take a chance on dubbing or localizing Kamen Rider after Dragon Knight bombed and Saban Masked Rider was a thing
>>77379487
>i don't understand shit about KR
It's changed a lot over the years, but the biggest connection is that Kamen Riders draw their own power or abilities from the enemy faction that they fight. All the original Riders during the Showa era (1971-1989) are cyborgs or artificially-enhanced humans of some kind, and usually forcibly reconstructed by the villains that they later turn on and fight to destroy.
Heisei Riders (2000-today) are much more diverse in terms of origin and themes but keep that same aspect of "using the enemy's power against them".
It's a ruse. Check the date at the bottom. It's a shoop of something from 2013.
Also, Driveisn't the best Kamen Rider.It's not even top five.
>>77379111
>20 Jan 13
Fake.
>>77379578
Stronger is the best Showa. No question.

>>77379145
Kamen literally means masked so why not translate it?
Unless you're a turbo weab that thinks, "Just as keikaku." is a valid translation.
>>77379679
What about Black RX?
>Implying they would bring drive
>When the two major things that happen to Shinnosuke involve blood and death
>>77379517
I'd welcome that over the constant reruns MacFarlane shows and King of the Hill. I wish they'd air the old Ultraman dub when Toonami goes off.
>>77379691
Because "Masked Rider" reminds everyone of the 90s show.
>Retards think this is real
>>77379696
Haven't seen it or Black yet.
>>77379691
For the same reason we don't spell out "Pokemon" as "pocket monsters" every time. It's just the branding.
>>77379720
>not realizing that everyone figured out it's not real and we just want to have a toku thread on /co/
>>77379691
Because Toei has localized English titles for EVERY show it makes, even the ones that will never be licensed. "Masked Rider" is just how they want it. Someone at Adness probably had to fight them to put "Kamen" in the title.
>>77379517
God I fucking love Amazon.
Dem '70s Kamen Rider babes too. Just put Ritsuko in a bunch of sweaters and skirts.
I love Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and Garo, but can't get into Super Sentai for the life of me.
Is there any Sentai series that might be worth a shot?
>>77379715
Yeah, those kids born in 2005 are going to remember a show from the 90s.
>>77379493
Nah, Saban owns that copyright, he bought it when they did Samurai because they didn't know if they were going to use the footage from the Decade/Shinkenger special.
>>77379715
>reminds everyone of the 90s show
The potential target audience would't have even been born in the 90s.
>>77379647
Drive's decent, actually has a fair story through its second half unlike most.
>>77379649
No shit Shotaro.
>>77379691
Kamen Rider sounds cooler.
Why are you complaining when nearly every English word has three synonyms from different languages?

Never get old kids it sucks.
I've really been loving Ghost ever since I got turned on to it from people talking about it on /co/.
I've started downloading Drive, but haven't started watching it yet.
What other Toku shows would you guys recommend and where can I download older stuff?
>>77379816
I didn't say it was bad, but W and Fourze are both significantly better Neo-Heisei (since let's be honest, Showa and old Heisei stuff would never get the green light).
>>77379816
It kind of shits the bed with the finale though because Shinnosuke kind of becomes an afterthought, and Sigma was obviously shoved in there to give him a big climactic fight, even though the actual emotional catharsis of the finale comes from Gou beating the shit out his dad.
>>77379829
>that girl from VR Troopers
And then she guest-starred on Power Rangers. For some reason, that made my little child mind so excited.
>>77379838

>>77379623
Heisei Rider's also toyetic as fuck.
The Showa Riders were somewhat loosely connected with all of them taking place in the same world; although Skyrider was supposed to originally be a reboot before becoming another series in the same timeline.
Heisei Rider is essentially Super Sentai with focus on a singular hero and his buddies instead of an entire team (there's usually a team but the main focus is one characteR). Also much more pretty boys once they started figuring out that one of the big demographics was moms who thought the guys were hot.
>>77379863
Shinnosuke was likable, but Gou always had more of a character arc to him than Shin.
Same goes for Chase.
>>77379111
>kamen show
I'll allow it.
>>77379691
>>77379780
Actually, Toei switched from "Masked" to "Kamen" after Decade. Most likely because that is easier to license and has better brand recognition.
Masked Rider is generic as fuck and god knows how many western works of fiction have someone called "masked rider" in them. With "Kamen Rider" you can't think of anything but the Toei super hero show.
>>77379838
It's a bit early to tell what you could compare Ghost to since we don't know how the characters, action or plot is going to develop.
If you like the aesthetic style so far, definitely check out the post-Decade Heisei series (W/Double onwards, skip Wizard because it's shit) as they have the same sort of cartoony, lighter tone that Ghost has started with.
Also, Den-O has similar comedic dynamics with its characters and Takeru has a bit in common with Ryotaro, the main character from that series.
>other toku shows
Garo.
All of it.
>>77379829
Here's a fun fact, after the Green Ranger was killed off VR Troopers, then called Cybertron, was going to be a show for Jason David Frank to be the star of but due to soccer moms losing their shit and demanding he come back to power rangers, JDF returned as the white ranger.
>>77379391

>>77379943
Tommy was never killed... he just lost his powers for a while.
So what's the status of subs for Showa Rider? I remember the OG series and Skyrider were in the middle of subs, Amazon, V3 and Stronger were complete but that's it. This was a few years back since I haven't read /m/ in a long time.
Likewise same with the status of any Sentai pre-Megaranger.
Which Kamen Rider would be the most at home on CN anyways?
>>77379111
I feel that programming will fail and CN will continue to produce mediocre 11 minutes "comedies"
>>77379903
>Heisei Rider is essentially Super Sentai with focus on a singular hero and his buddies instead of an entire team (there's usually a team but the main focus is one characteR). Also much more pretty boys once they started figuring out that one of the big demographics was moms who thought the guys were hot.
Yeah, that's moreso post-Decade Heisei, although after the production team in Hibiki is where that started to set in.
Man I fucking miss the aesthetic of early Heisei. Agito, Blade and Kuuga are three of my top five favorite Rider seasons.
>>77379980
Whatever nigga, the shit was like 25 years ago and I was 4. Cut me a break.
>>77379985
That's still the case as far as I know. There's several scrub and re-subbing projects for some Heisei series, but no love for Showa.
>>77379995
Fourze would definitely be the easiest to just straight-up dub since the setting is based in a western-style high school.
So we can all agree that Amazon is the cutest rider, right?
>>77380020
KUUGA, KUUGA
Fucking stuck in my head all over again.
>>77380042

>>77380042
What about Philip?
>>77380020
>after the production team in Hibiki
Production team CHANGE is what I meant to say.
>>77380074
It varies from show to show.
>>77380074
Depends on which series it is. Sometimes the Rider's civilian identity is a big deal to be kept secret, and sometimes they don't care.
>>77380074
Somewhat, but it's seldom a major plot point. In the case of Fourze, which that webm is from, all the people on the stage were his allies, and he usually defeats the monster, then befriends the human that was overcome by it, so since they're his friends, it's okay for them to know.It's his goal in life to befriend everyone at his school.
>>77380074
Keep in mind, that is the finale episode of the series. Why would they bother at that point.
>>77379863
Heart should have been true final boss for Shin, there's no doubt about it
I'd only accept a Western adaptation of Drive if they got Chris Peppler to be English Mr. Belt.
>>77380140
>It's his goal in life to befriend everyone at his school.
You mean everyone, ever, right?
>>77380149
That final fight between them was such a fucking cop-out. I mean, Heart got an amazing monologue in, but the build up to it wasn't there properly, and it didn't get resolved in any satisfying way.
They should've pulled a Blade where the final "boss" fight happens a couple episodes before the actual finale and they spend the rest of the series wrangling with the ethical quandaries that the win condition creates.
>>77380183
I'm only about twelve episodes in.
>>77380173
Why does Peppler sound so weird when speaking in English for extended periods of time? It's like... he's clearly a native speaker, but somehow it just feels wrong.
You know?
>>77380183
And sentient space stations
And alien life forms
And his belt itself

He does a lot more than befriend alien life forms

>>77379860
Fourze did too many weird things towards the end that will put me off from saying it is better than Drive.
Same for W, though I think it trades off with a strong beginning. So W is like Drive in reverse for me. I loved the way W's set up. I loved the movies which were pretty much prequels. I like how it carried itself during the first half. However by midway, after the younger Sonozaki sister's weird ass heel turn and Weather's defeat, I didn't like the overarching plot as much. None of the final bosses interested me. Terror wasn't terrifying, Claydoll is stupid, and autistic benefactor man was just villainous comic relief. Not to say that the last half didn't have its moments, but the first half I enjoyed better.
Drive was just slow. Nothing really offensive, it sets the setting nicely nicely, but the first half is a slog to get through. Mashin Chaser's story was dragged out and Medic was used as a stall to help achieve that. Then they get better and Chase and Medic are redeemed in the writing. All the villains ended up strong. Even Banno made up for his late appearance by being an enjoyable, hateable bastard whose voice actor and suit actor gave it their A+ performance.
So people really like Fourze, huh? I couldn't get into it at all. The suit was ugly, the gimmick was bulky, and it was in that two episode pair thing that made Wizard so unbearable. (Well, it was one of the things that made Wizard unbearable.)
That said, I absolutely loved Drive. I would kill to have Drive be imported and put on TV. I think it'd really work! You'd just have to make sure to get Chris Peppler to reprise his role.
>>77379191
Boco succeeds once again in displaying his shit taste.
>>77380371
W's main offense is that I can't take any of the villains apart from Isaka/Weather seriously.
I do agree, Fourze past the middle of the season where they realize "oh shit we need to get through the rest of the Horoscopes before the series ends" gets really weird. And fuck the Gemini arc.
>there are people that dont like sentai
>>77380209
Might be a mandated thing by Toei. Like Kyoryu Cyan's actor needing to sound like a stereotypical westerner speaking Japanese instead of a more realistic one because Japanese kid's understand it more.
The same probably goes vice versa. Japanese kids might not understand clear English, but they can understand Engrish.
>>77380371
>Drive was just slow. Nothing really offensive, it sets the setting nicely nicely, but the first half is a slog to get through.
Agreed, but I still think it could work on TV. Since Power Rangers get their episodes cut down, I figured it'd probably work the same for a hypothetical Kamen Rider, meaning just consolidating the earlier episodes so that it doesn't drag as much.
>>77380482
I've just never really had the same urge to start it like I got watching Kamen Rider webms and shit.
I'll probably start it or Ultraman sometime soon, but right now there's just other things I'm more interested in marathoning.
>>77380489
I meant on his news show, his voice sounds strange.
>>77380209
I don't think he ever spoke more than a few words at a time in Drive. It might just be his accent or the effects of speaking mostly Japanese for so long.
>>77380482

Jesus christ, i'm cringing a bit.
I'm not saying it's bad, I'll probably enjoy it if I watch it, but goddamn that was cringe-inducing. Acting like an anime character in real life looks so weird to me nowand to think I was a weeb 6 or so years ago
>>77380604
Is Gokaiger worth watching? I've had it downloaded for over half a year.
>>77380606
The main character is really likeable despite it, I recommend goving Fourze a shot.
>>77380417
I LOVED Fourze's base suit. In fact for Fourze, I loved all the base suits. Base States Fourze, Meteor, Nadesico... but then there are the powerups. What an assault on the eyes they were. And they weren't as tied into the motif as I believe a spaceship/space themed Rider could be. They were just throwbacks to Super-1 and that was it.
Ghost strikes me the same way, but I don't hate the other Souls like I do the other States. I just don't think they work as well on Ghost's and Spectre's base suits as Ghost's and Spectre's own Souls do.
I both cases, I think it's a situation where they put working into making a good looking base suit without thinking how well the look would translate into other forms.
That's why I like W, OOO, and Wizard (at least for the regular Styles) because they had the alternate forms in mind. I also love Drive because they give the Riders mostly new suits entirely sans shit like Deadheat and Mach Chaser.
>>77379517
This would be a dream come true. I love old tokusatsu and the original Ultraman. I loved it when Adult Swim aired reruns of Astro Boy and Gigantor at like 5AM.
>>77380720
>Astro Boy
Wasn't the creator of Kamen Rider an underling of the guy who made that?
>>77380736
Yup
>>77380606
I felt the same way when I first watched Rider starting with Gaim.
Fourze there's one of the campier shows. The recent shows (2009 and after) put a lot more emphasis on fancy poses, fancy gimmicks, fancy motifs, fancy catch phrases... Not that they're bad, most of them are really good.
>>77379111

They could always use Omni Studios in Hong Kong if they're still around. Or could hire a bunch of old popular voice actors from the '80s to do 'em -- y'know, Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Robert Axelrod, Cam Clarke, Richard Epcar, Barbara Goodson, B.J. Ward, etc.

Yeah the guy in the front is kinda okay, just typical over-the-top japanese acting. It's the girls and the other people at the back that made me cringe.

>>77381056
The guy in front is also a massively popular actor now.
>>77380736

12-to-1 - simulcast of the current Super Hero Time shows minus Precure (Super Sentai, Kamen Rider)
1:30 - All Riders starting at W
2-to-3 - Garo. All of it from the beginning.
So Kamen Rider is a more serious Power Rangers? Where should I start with them?
>mfw I don't watch sentai but I've watched a lot of robot animes
Where do you start? I heard Ultraman is really important. Any similar to Symphogear?
>>77381154
I'd recommend starting at either Kiva, Hibiki or Blade.
Those are commonly acknowledged as the best Kamen Rider shows and have all won several awards in Japan.
>>77381154
>So Kamen Rider is a more serious Power Rangers
Not really. Kamen Rider is not team-based; it centers around the protagonist, even if the series is about multiple Riders like Ryuki or Gaim.
Also, every entry is different, and that's without taking into account the difference between the Showa and Heisei eras, so it's not on its own "more serious" than anything. There're the more lighthearted entries like Fourze, the more violent ones like Amazon or Kuuga, the darker ones like Faiz and Gaim, etc.
>>77381033
That's a parody series, you don't have to watch it but it's pretty funny. Akiba is the same Gokaigers in the sense it's good to at least be familiar with Sentai Honestly Kanpai Senshi After V is funnier to me.

Start with either W or OOO for more resent shit, or Kuuga for early 2000s shit. If you something a tad more grim, go with Gaim, for something a tad more light-hearted, go with Fourze.
>>77381390
I meant that it's the only one I've watched.

I just picked old toku which was dubbed and shown in the U.S. in some capacity plus classic English dubbed anime.

(optional) 3:00 AM -- Kimba the White Lion
>>77381193
Not that anon but thanks for the recs. Which would you say is the easiest for a cape fan to get into. I've never been that into anime so a super Japanese show might be hard to get into. Unless it's nothing like anime, I don't know.
>>77381416
Oh then you could probably still go for it and watch Gokaiger, but some of the enjoyment comes from seeing people from old Sentai series come back. I'll warn you it spoils a few Sentai in case you decide to watch them later.

>>77380074
For Fourze in particular, the main character doesn't care about who sees him, but the only people who actually do see him transform are allies, enemies, or people who will become allies or enemies.
>>77381498
Fyi, I'm pretty sure he's trolling.
Kiva's modern day arc is pretty panned, Hibiki got retooled, and Blade is decent except for chronic misunderstandings. I'm not sure if the latter two got decent subs, either. (I think someone tried scrubbing Blade?)
>>77379861
Okay this will be fun.
>>77381904
And the craziest part.A Japanese pun that was actually funny.
Fucking Christ, I love anime in my shows. but not Kamen Rider. that doesn't really belong in America that much. Although technically Super Sentai did come in here in the mid 90's and it was popular. But action shows and kids these days do not work so well. We are more into Humor and random humor. I see this bombing, if this was another time. it would've succeeded. but not in Lesbian Space Rock Era

I think the Blade scrubs are done.
>>77380417
>The suit was ugly
Pretty much every Kamen Rider has garbage designs f a m
>>77381952
Faiz is the one infamous for chronic misunderstandings, Blade's actually pretty good after the first ten or so episodes.
So I keep seeing people praising Garo, which I will take as it being really damn good. Can I get a quick summary of it/opinions?
>>77380482
That's Kamen Rider. This is Sentai.
>>77381985
Now lets not get crazy, Tajador is perfection.
>>77381109
Is Wizard any good? That suit is sexy as fuck
>>77382025
The fights are good, but the rest of the series is boring.
If you like mayoman he'll carry the entire series for you though.
>>77381967
Only you a weeaboo would welcome such shit on an american television channel. They need to stop this Anime shit, and come up with their own action shows that are GOOD; stop stealing/out sourcing that shit from other countries cause we can't make our own good action cartoons, we never could. It'll fail because it isn't Teen Titans Go. not because of /tumblr/ Universe. you fucking weeaboo.
>>77382025
I couldn't finish it, It just dragged it's feet too much and I didn't like any character 30 episodes into it.
>>77382025
The main show is fucking garbage outside of the secondary rider, the webmovies are great.
>>77381154
If you want to watch a series called Kamen Rider then start with wherever in Heisei. If you want to watch Kamen Rider then you're shit out of luck because only a handful of old series (Amazon, Stronger, Black, Black RX) are fully subbed.

>More sentai coming to America
I am totally ok with this.
Damn you OP, you made me double-check.
>>77382156
Kamen Rider isn't sentai.
>>77382156
>Kamen Rider
>Sentai
The word you're looking for is Toku
>>77382179
>>77382175
Pretty sure OP pic isn't a rider (despite what the faked text says), but hell yeah let's get some toku all up in the US. As cheesey as Power Rangers was that will always be a good memory and the thing that launched my interest into this genre.
>>77382286
>Kamen Rider Drive
>Not a Rider
>>77382286
>Pretty sure OP pic isn't a rider
No, it's definitely a Rider
>>77379860
>Neo-Heisei
Stop.
>>77382340
>>77382338
I, I have no words. I'm feeling bad yet completely satisfied looking at this poster. Damn you Japaneses.

U wut m8?
Where were you when the Flash became Android Kikaider?
>>77380213
>And his belt itself
He was a pretty shit friend to his belt considering he flung it into a pit of lava.
>>77382417
Jesus Christ this is the titiest shit I ever saw.
>>77381154
Kabuto.
>>77382455
Why would you ever suggest that? Do you want him to hate Kamen Rider? We're talking about a show with one of the most divisive main characters ever, and a plot that shits the bed with the lights on in the second half. No one should ever have Kabuto as their first.
>>77382495
>>77379111
>Drive
>not starting with W and working your way up from there
Heathens!
>>77382522
>Kikaider
I knew I didn't fucking imagine that show.
>>77382609
The toku series actually got a pretty neato remake last year. It's a lot closer in tone to the manga and the anime that aired on adult swim though.
>>77382488
Kabuto isn't that bad.
>>77382609
It even had a recentReboot
>>77382630
In the credits of the remake they even play the theme from the old show accompanied with clips
>>77382630
And it crossed over with Gaim
>>77382630
>>77382654
>>77382657
>>77382665
Neat.
All I remember is black robot guy crushing scientist guy's throat.
That's it. Was it a good show?
>>77382674
The crossover was really bad.
>>77382699
Meh
>>77379111
I actually thought this was real for a split second.
Fuck you OP.They would have edited it to hell anyway probably
HEY RETARDS WHO THINK THIS IS REAL
>20 JAN 13
>>77382665
Hell the original Kikaider, Ban Daisuke, has a pretty extensive cameo.
>>77382657
>>77382674
The movie also got an actual English release, with a limited theatrical showing in California and Hawaii, and a limited DVD release.
>>77382686
The original toku series is pretty fucking dated, being from the early 70's and all. It's also somehow even lower budget than Kamen Rider and Super Sentai from the same era, but it's a pretty fun, goofy show if you're into that sort of thing. The 2000 anime that aired on Adult Swim is typically a much easier pill to swallow for newer fans, being a more emotional, grim show that's closer in tone to Ishinomori's original manga, which was a tragic series.
>>77382754
>The movie also got an actual English release, with a limited theatrical showing in California and Hawaii, and a limited DVD release.
Whatttt
>>77379111
this would have been really lame if real anyways. most kids lost interest in power rangers ages ago. the only people who care about it now until the new reboot are virgin neckbeards
Yongou Over Yander (The guy who scrubs Kabuto) basically confirmed that he did this on his twitter
>>77382754
>California
Fucking typical, I hate California.
It gets all of the Japanese shit I want.
>>77379918
It's a shame Wizard is (apparently, I haven't watched it yet) so bad because his design is pretty good.
Out of the three and a half I've watched (W, Gaim, Fourze, OOO, in that order) I think Gaim and Fourze are probably my favourites. I didn't expect to love Gentarou nearly as much as I did.tfw seeing ryuusei cry makes you cry goddammit why did that scene have to be so sad someone hold me ;-;
I'm two episodes behind I think, but god Ghost feels so hyperactive so far.
They're trying so hard to keep the kid's attentions
>>77379111
>Kamen rider
yup I am A-ok with this.
Kamen Rider is for children! CHILDREN!
>>77379995
>mfw "uchuu kita" means "space is here/space has arrived"
>it's not "blast off" like the subs said
when will the lies end
>>77382779
Except for, y'know, all the children that still watch the damn thing. Half the kids who came to my door step on Halloween were wearing Dino Charge costumes.
>>77382778
>>77382789
Generation Kikaida, a Hawaiian based company that licenses old Toku shows that were popular in Hawaii, brought it over. Kikaider was a huge thing there in the 70's apparently, so they license pretty much everything with the character for release in the US.
They've done full boxset releases for Kamen Rider V3, Inazuman, Kikaider, and Kikaider 01. The only thing is that their full series sets can get pretty damn expensive, since they apparently print them up on an order by order basis.
>>77382858
Why do I want to fuck Yurusen?
Are there any sentai/kr comics?
>>77381154
I started with W/Double and immediately fell in love with the franchise as a whole. Then went onto Gaim and then Fourze and I'm a little over halfway through OOO.
>>77382858
That's because they're trying to shill out as many toys as they possibly can before the holiday rush, so they're introducing a shit ton of weapons, eyecons, gimmick (boat thing, ghost phone, etc.) and shit.
>>77382870
So's everything else on Cartoon Network, so it'd be right at home.
>>77382895
Because the show's execs literally built her for sex
>>77382926
For Western comics the closest you're gonna get is the old Marvel Masked Rider comic, and that new Power Rangers comic coming soon. As far as manga is concerned though you can find Ishinomori's original Kamen Rider series, which is available fully translated through Comixology, along with Android Kikaider and Inazuman. His Kamen Rider Black manga, which is pretty goddamn different from the show has also been translated into English but not through any official channels.
There's also Kamen Rider Spirits, a newer, more violent manga series that covers the adventures of all the old Showa Riders, up to ZX, after their shows are over, leading up to a bigger plot involving them all.
As far as Sentai goes the only one I really know is Ishinomori's original Himitsu Sentai Gorenger manga, which is very different from the show and comes across more as a gag strip. I'm pretty sure it hasn't been translated either.
>>77379258
>I'm drowning! Why won't you bitches help me!?
Was the only thing I could think of at first and fell out of my chair laughing

The life of the Shocker mook is a rough one.
>>77383115
Aren't those Dustards?god what a terrible name
>>77379111
Why did they pick Drive? Should've started at W, it'd be great.
>>77383151
It's a shoop YOU FUCKING MORON
>>77383134
Yeah, Fourze's a good show but its mooks were both pointless and retarded.
>>77382417
>>77382340

This Kamen Rider is a Kamen Driver

>>77379111
wait, they're dubbing Kamen Rider Drive?
>>77379863
I wish the Flash show had effects like this
oh come on i was hoping to see this dubbed so that i can crack this joke again
Is this really /co/? Toku on /co/? Nice, do any of you like sentai too. I am currently watching Ninninger, I like it so far.

Newsflash:You're dumb.
>>77383075
Ishinomori really had a hard on for cyborgs
Anybody weigh in on this yet?

>>77383332
I've been trying to get into ToQger again, after having to drop it last year when I didn't have time to keep. It's a really fucking cozy show for some reason. Those first few episodes just feel so relaxed and goofy.
>>77383344
He really fucking did. The Gorengers were just dudes in sweet costumes though, and Kikaider was just an android. Same for Hakaider too, despite what the brain would make you think. Though even he was a cyborg a few times.
