Well that was a thing. Like it knew what it was here for, and that was Dan and Masamune being over the top, so that's good?
I just don't understand how this sort of thing exists. Did they film this over the actors' lunch breaks? Normally I'd assume this sort of thing was a precursor to a movie like Hero Mama was for the KyuuRanger movie, but this feels like this was just a one-off for more Ex-Aid stuff

So... What was the point of that? It was kinda fun so alright but feels superfluous?
About the dick-measuring line: takenoko put it in as a joke originally but honestly it works as a decent translation and fits the scene pretty well so... Yeah, they're measuring dicks

I very earnestly sat for a few minutes to think of an alternate line, but none of them felt as good as it. It just worked too well, despite feeling mildly inappropriate lol

At the very least you didn't pull an American censorship with a Gosh Dang It to Heck.

It was alright but the ending song is the best thing that came out of this special.

Oh no, I hate that shit. I just more mean like, trying to not ruin the tone of what's going on with the video. I think it's important to try to put personality and style into the subs, but not at the cost of being too distracting. (Which is totally hypocritical because I'm sure I've totally done that before)TheNinjaDragon wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 10:15 amAt the very least you didn't pull an American censorship with a Gosh Dang It to Heck.
In this case, I feel like "dick measuring contest" might be the very edge of something Mr. Thouser would say. I imagine if he were a real person, he'd probably have said it in a more erudite way

Always fun to see Kuroto chewing up the scenery but, yeah... what the hell did I just watch?

Re: Kamen Rider Genms -The Presidents- Part 2 released
Well that was enjoyable. It didn't go anywhere - and frankly I wasn't really expecting it to in only two parts - but it was fun all the same. Dan Kuroto is the hammiest evil bastard that Toei has ever turned out, and it's always a hoot to watch him be unrepentantly over-the-top evil.
And do my eyes deceive me, or is that Genm Level 2 that we see? That such a rare form for him, since he was almost always Dangerous Zombie or Level 0.
Anyhow, it definitely didn't add anything of note to Dan Kuroto's already lengthy story. However it's not a bad bit of coda for Gai. Despite his transgressions, he's not an utterly evil bastard like the two Dans. So this gives the character a bit of a reset point, perhaps?
Edit: Oh, and Level X cleaner

This was for TTFC, right? And TTFC is a paid service. So I would think that Toei would need to make content for the service, to keep people interested in subscribing. Plus, the actor playing Kuroto is clearly enjoying the role.takenoko wrote: ↑Wed Apr 21, 2021 2:26 am I just don't understand how this sort of thing exists.

Assuming Masamune Dan's age is the same as the actor that portrays him (Hiroyuki Takami), he'd be 51 y/o at the time of this post.
Assuming Kuroto Dan's age is the sam as the actor that portrays him (Iwanaga Tetsuya), he'd be 34 y/o at the time of this post.
If we're to assume that Masamune is Kuroto's father, he'd have to conceive Kuroto at ~17 y/o. That's surprisingly believable, especially given how young some parents are in the West.
It's not impossible that Masamune was a very young dad.

Re: Kamen Rider Genms -The Presidents- Part 2 released
That's surprisingly interesting. I just assumed this was another of those situations where the actors playing parent/children are like 5 years apart or something ridiculous like that. Masamune's looking good for 50

Re: Kamen Rider Genms -The Presidents- Part 2 released
I have a feeling this really was the setup for a movie by reminding us how crazy pretty much every president in Kamen Rider since the beginning of the Heisei Era have really been.
We had a sort of good guy turned temporary evil president in Faiz, a crazy president in OOO, two crazy presidents in Ex-Aid, and a crazy president in Zero-One.
Next year, they'll announce a brand new spinoff series merging Kamen Rider and Super Sentai (for which Saber was the test run)...
Decade is sitting on his throne when his android assistant Peebo, a native of Planet Bio in an alternate universe cries out in shock. Peebo warns TV networks all over the world are pumping out terrible shows that are so bad they're brainwashing half the populace into fighting each other and the other half are falling into comas. Meanwhile the networks have begun taking over world governments. Tsukasa tells Peebo he has to make a stop on a few alternate worlds. Peebo asks why, and Tsukasa responds, "To fight the networks, we need five presidents with attitude."
He then assembles a team and gives them the power to become a sentai: Kaiba Yuji, who becomes Kamen Rider Jedi, with the power of neon and laser swords; Kōgami, who becomes Kamen Rider Kēki, with the power of birthdays; Dan Masamune, who becomes Kamen Rider Founder, who has the power of schedules and deadlines; Dan Kuroto, who becomes Kamen Rider Cheats, with the power of cheat codes; and Amatsu Gai, who becomes Kamen Rider Overstatement, with the power to briefly amplify an attack by 1,000 percent and can draw the attacks of the enemy for 1,000 seconds but has no other powers.
Together, they are Kamen Sentai President 5 *cue cheesy '80s glam rock music*
