Episode 36 and Doraemon coming soon. Sorry about the super, duper long delay!

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?
I’ve been slowing down lately since I don’t have my computer right now. I took a flight and checked my bag, and wouldn’t you know it, they lost it. It’s been 5 days now and not a trace. It’s pretty inconvenient since I had my laptop, external hard drive, clothes, Wacom tablet, Nintendo DS, and my passport in it. Estimated value is over $2000.
I was about to hand Kamen Rider Black episode 36 to Britas, but that’s on the external hard drive. I also had a few DVDs of KRB in the bag as well, so that’s another problem. All my fansubs are on that drive, which is not so good. I have the episodes online, obviously, but the subtitle files are on that drive.
I should have just carried it on. I’m never checking anything again if I can avoid it. What was I thinking…
Wish me luck!

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.]

Girls in Uniform is a pretty new figure series that’s sold in most convenience stores in Japan. The concept is to take the most beloved tokusatsu girls and make them into anime-style collectible figures. This is the first Kamen Rider themed release, with several out already on the Super Sentai front.

For the debut Bandai chose to release 6 + 1 secret figures. You don’t know what’s in the box until you open it, so the “+ 1″ is a secret figure that’s not revealed on the box. The characters chosen are: Ozawa Sumiko (Agito), Kirishima Miho (Ryuki), Smart Lady (555), Amami Akira (Hibiki), Hana (Den-O), Naomi (Den-O), and the secret figure is Smart Lady in the mourning outfit from episode 5. Hana and Naomi below, looks nice huh? View more pictures at Charab Life: Part 1 | Part 2
