Sorry for the long absence. It’s been a very hard year for me, and I haven’t been in a good enough mood to look at any fansub work. However, I feel that I should get back to this so that I can make some people happy. I also have some people helping me so I should be able to get work done more efficiently. Maybe in return I’ll get some happiness back, seeing your excited comments.
Thank you every one for not forgetting me. I do read all your comments as they come in, I really appreciate it. I’ll do my best to return the favor.

Here’s the first image of Kamen Rider Kiba (or Kamen Rider Fang), and it looks pretty awesome! As I mentioned before, Kiba reminds me of Hibiki in a couple ways, like his hands and use of animals/monsters. He also looks inspired by Dark Kabuto as well; looks quite cool in my eyes, love the blood red/black/silver combination. He better have an awesome bike!
Not confirmed, but he may be a monster hunter. Wouldn’t be a bad marketing idea considering that Monster Hunter is such a popular game series in Japan. Gotta catch ‘em all!
A couple more concept shots at this site as well, double typhoon belt!

A full unveiling is coming real soon, but here’s the annual New Kamen Rider silhouettes. The horror elements mentioned in the previous rumor report are intact, which I’m excited for. Perhaps we’ll see creepier monsters and creative night time fight sequences!
The suit looks pretty cool to me, a lot better than the initial shots (though it might be a blank form). Looks better than Den-O; looks like an evolved Hibiki suit. More details coming soon, so keep on the lookout!

Sappii has a new review up for the new High Detail Superior Kamen Rider Den-O figures, which look quite impressive. Sappii notes that HDS is better than the Ultimate Solid series in a way since the figures are in one piece, avoiding spliced body parts with unsightly seams.
What Kamen Rider would you like see for High Detail Superior 2?

There I am, around age 4 or 5. Kamen Rider Black RX was out at this time, I believe. Am I the coolest or what?

Igadevil has reviewed H.G.C.O.R.E. Kamen Rider volumes 1 and 2 on his blog. He has a ton of photos to share, and reviews every single figure – safe to say that it’s the most detailed review in English (maybe the world).
They’re relatively old sets, so you might have a hard time finding it outside of Japan. If you’re looking for them online I suggest eBay (make sure to check the eBay Stores as well), and newer sets can be found at HLJ.

Kamen Rider Den-O star Sato Takeru supposedly complained of chest pains and was diagnosed with pneumothorax, or collapsed lung. He’s getting better now and was told to rest for ten days.
Pretty scary, especially considering his age. If you feel any discomfort, don’t hesitate to visit your doctor!
Get well soon, Sato-kun!

Just doing my daily check on The MagicBox (this is where I primarily get my Japanese video game news) and I found the above image. Mask, scarf, large belt…Whoa, it’s Kamen Rider! So, I spent a couple minutes making Mog Rider, coming to a TV near no one! Kind of reminds me of a cooler Rider Man 
This mog character is for a new Nintendo Wii game by Square Enix called Chocobo’s Dungeon: Toki Wasure no Meikyuu, or Chocobo’s Dungeon: Labyrinth of Memories (unofficial English title). This seems to be the first installment of the Job System into this series so it looks like an interesting release, coming to Japan on December 13th.
Look at more images at The MagicBox
[UPDATE: Read more about the character, seems that he was also in Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales as Dueler X (Japanese name was Dungeon Hero X). Very awesome.]

And hey, that’s Kamen Rider Black breaking through the window in the opening video with his Battle Hopper (in the bottom right corner)! From the text it looks like it’s 1 of 4 special edition Rider Chips R trading cards included with the magazine.
And below you can see the adorable Imagin costumes for dogs!

Kamen Zaiber is an old, Japanese parody of the Kamen Rider series. The camera work, suits, and special effects are all great! A definite must-see for fans.
Kamen Zaiber Opening
Episode 1: Kamen Zaiber tries to save a helpless girl, but is infuriated when everyone constantly calls him “Kamen Rider” instead of “Kamen Zaiber.”
Episode 3 (2 doesn’t exist online yet): A fake Kamen Zaiber confuses everyone, while a sister of the girl from episode 1 avenges her sister’s death.
Episode 4: Hell Shocker tries to blow up a boat when Kamen Zaiber J, revived and upgraded with a very long name, stops them.

Episode 5: The thirsty Kamen Zaiber decides to get a drink from a vending machine and has trouble.
