Re: KR Gaim 01 released

I could just quote word for word the opening post by Takenoko.

I'm a bit confused about what they were trying to do here.

Too much unrelated stuff on the table.
Looks like they're going to turn the Warring States period into the Warring Fruits period.

Next episode: the one-eyed banana general ?

You're right, it's obviously a big rip off with no originality to it.

Re: Garo Soukoku no Maryu released (3300 releases)

Several references to Alice in Wonderland, Wizard of OZ (Scarecrow/Kakashi), Transformers (Zaruba) etc... I wouldn't call those references... the only proper "reference" is the Scarecrow since he has a different personality and role in this story. The rest is more like ripped off right in...

Re: KR Kuuga 24 released

Still didn't see the episode (I'm going to catch up later, still have 3 episodes to watch ) but that pic is awesome. I don't really like all the cartoonish ones that are covering 99% of fan pages. Edit: Finally watched them all. Yeah the power up was a bit lame but if I'm not wrong that isn't the &q...

Re: KR Wizard 53 released

I honestly wish they had just taken two weeks off. Seems to me they screwed up with the schedule somewhere near the end mainly because between the battle with Wiseman and Gremlin there shouldn't have been two whole episodes. That ruined the build up for the finale and the ending was as anticlimatic...

Re: Kamen Rider 555 Blu-Rays (10 years on)

I have just one question: how can they justify that price? Is there some extra other than the disc itself?

Even with a crapload of interviews, backstage shots and stunts/greenscreen/ropes (like in the good old Garo) I'd still find that price absurd.

Re: KR Wizard 52 released

Actually, Gaim weapon is based in historical fact. During the WWII era, many Japanese soldiers carried similar weapons. Edit: http://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&safe=off&hl=en&biw=1366&bih=665&tbm=isch&tbnid=cEtf9IoUBN6gdM:&imgrefurl=http://www.fioredeiliberi.org/phpBB3/v...

Re: 2014 Sentai - Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger

I doubt Shinkansen can be used in the name and it would sounds too similar to Shinkenger.
Bullet Sentai Tokkyuger sounds cool. If you get to pick one train, you want the fastest one.

Or... Thomas Sentai Tankenger.

Sparkle sparkle sparkle!

Re: 2014 Sentai - Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger

I'm curious about the plot though... I mean. What can you do with trains. Is the mentor going to be someone who used to be a world famous conductor but tragedy stroke when the evil Arial Empire destroyed his tracks? Well, look at Den-O. And anyone else remember this? http://vimeo.com/45593319 Appar...

Re: Why not Garo?

Snip, unnecessary quoting, and original post is right above this one Did they edited in DVD the second season in Italy?

Re: Why not Garo?

If you're talking about not knowing Garo at all, then in my case it's the other way around: In my country (Italy) when Garo came out, everyone watching MTV knew about it, even people that didn't like it at all, because it was aired in prime time each tuesday. In the same time frame other 'alternativ...

Kamen Rider Banana is a thing now... ok. (but no new shoes this time :P ) I like the one that should be the orange form and it reminds me of Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (Kongo and Orange share the same design and color). Seems like Samba+Dinosaurs wasn't random enough so they picked Sengoku+Fruits as ...
