Tokusatsu in review: Kamen Rider Yongou

Shinta quickly gives his thoughts on the netmovies that conclude The latest Taisen film after Yonemura refused to end his film by syncing it with canon…which becomes an event that’s better than the Movie itself and ejects the Taisen films from Continuity?!?
…Well, to be Fair, they Contradicted canon all the time to begin with.

.hack//Retrospective: .Hack//Vs/The World

The retrospective comes to a close with a fighting game of Cyberconnect’s flagship franchise, and a theatrical feature chronicling the final tale of the Epitaph of Twilight.
Done in reverse order, of course.



Note: this was made before it was announced Cyberconnect2 was given outsourced work on Square-enix’s Final fantasy 7 Remake. Frankly, from all the other details revealed concerning that project at around the same time, that was the only highlight of them.

Tokusatsu in review: Travelers, Dimension Police

Season 4 starts off with a Movie directed by Koichi Sakamoto…that fails at even being typical Japanese fanservice one would expect from a movie described as a “Supercharged sexy action thriller”, despite starring Nao nagasawa and Ayumi Kinoshita.
