  1. I like this review on the movies.
    My thoughts on them are that A new transformation was good enough the had better action scene for shining form here too bad G3 MILD never got much as it was pretty much useless.
    Project G4 well there are 2 things that bothered me one was Gill's condition and other was the movie characters Shiro well though he is not a true antagonist like in the later summer movies well bored me at some point and Risa of the female A-holes she is top contender for it along with being really psychotic. Well I really never had this idea that Japan had such negative view on its military though.
    This movie is well known for the following
    * the only time Secondary Rider went one on one with a doppelganger rider.
    * the start of double bill with sentai
    ETC.

  2. You know, I never have any interests in any Toku movies or even Precure movies, mostly because either the movies are non canon to the main series, or they break characters to characters we already know and love. However, I see there is an advantage of having a movie being non canon to the main series, considering that Agito was pretty bad in the main series, so I really like what they did with Project G4.

    Also, I am really looking forward to the Gaim movie, because at least I could say this movie is actually canon.

    1. Ummm...got that a bit backwards there, dude. Project G4 is canon, every other Toshiki Inoue written one (bar the Nobunaga's ambition part of movie war Core) is not. Past those, EVERY other Kamen Rider Movie is canon to it's series events.
      ...which, sadly, also includes the freaking taisen films. Movies I'd like to be noncanon.
      In fact, I really can't name A Toku movie that's not canon to it's related TV series off the top of my head aside from those.

    2. How about Ultraman vs. Kamen Rider I am sure thats non-canon....
      You know you tweeted the link of an article on superhero tasien in herotaku. I realize that I like the times when there were no crossover Hell even this new one has got me uninteresting there was the time when it was unique but because Toei is company who does not care continues to fling it.
      Project G4 was better than the series, considering the settings overall.

    4. Qwerty: Okay, THAT one is noncanon, but I always forget about that one as it happened TWO DECADES after the original rider series bowed out.

  3. Oops, my bad. Then does that mean the Den-O movies and the Decade crossover movies as well? Umm... Can I pretend that they are non-canon?
