Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
They don't particularly resemble their respective riders. I'll give the songs a listen later, but my preliminary opinion of the affair is that I'm not too impressed.

Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
Yeah, we were looking at your blog post about it last night on IRC. I said (kind of jokingly, but also kinda meaning it) that if I can't tell at a glance which girl is which Rider, it's really not good enough. I don't know what other gimmicks they have, but it just seems like they're trying to capitalize on Kamen Rider by name only and by the fact that they're women. Which is fine if people like that, but it seems super transparent and not very interesting. Maybe they'll do something interesting with the Kamen Rider name, but so far I don't see any reason to look into any of the stuff they're doing

Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
I agree with you about not checking out their music just because they are KR-Branded, but each lady *is* wearing the correct belt for their role. Their costumes otherwise are vague, but I feel like they got the most important part down. It's hard to see in that pic, but on JEFusion it's a little clearer, especially on the image where they pose with their Riders.takenoko wrote:Yeah, we were looking at your blog post about it last night on IRC.

Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
That's why I said at a glance. If they all look the same with just color variations, it's not really Kamen Rider themed enough to warrant it. Think about it this way, it's like putting on a Kamen Rider belt and saying you have a costume for Halloween

You have a point.

That was our assumptions when we first heard the name.Raitaro wrote:i think whole ideas pretty good but why didnt they cast atresses from the actual shows to be in this idol group?
Plus, when I listen to their song (before they get introduced) some of them sounded similar to Rin Asuka (Wakana) and Yu Takahashi (Yuri).
Well, let's see what will happen next...

Is Shoko Fujibayashi involved with KRG? He apparently wrote lyrics for Naturally.GekIDan wrote:That was our assumptions when we first heard the name.

I couldn't find full credits that I could read as a dumb anglo, but it seems likely they had the same producers as the Wakana album. (Haven't heard the Yuri one, so I can't contribute from there)

On another note, Rider-Tan fan-arts?

Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
I think having the Kamen Rider belts is good enough. They may not look exactly like the riders that they represent, but they are an idol group and I much prefer to see the girls in sexy outfits than looking as if they just stepped out of a Halloween party.
Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
It would be a tad easier to see who was who is they had more identification than a belt. Granted the belts are distinctive, it would seem much more....Kamen Rider-ish is there was more than 'we haz beltz, lol'.Shinken Red wrote:I think having the Kamen Rider belts is good enough.

Re: KAMEN RIDER GIRLS
Something odd about being called Kamen anything and not actually wearing a mask. Just sayin'...
