I personally liked Drive better than those 3, though I think they are a must too. These 4 are very western friendly.

In fact, every 2010s Hesei sans Gaim is very western friendly. Detectives, Animals, Spaceships, Wizards, Cars, Ghosts... Just dub 'em and go.

Kamen Rider is about super heroes who use their enemy's power against them.

>i don't understand shit about KR

It's changed a lot over the years, but the biggest connection is that Kamen Riders draw their own power or abilities from the enemy faction that they fight. All the original Riders during the Showa era (1971-1989) are cyborgs or artificially-enhanced humans of some kind, and usually forcibly reconstructed by the villains that they later turn on and fight to destroy.

Heisei Riders (2000-today) are much more diverse in terms of origin and themes but keep that same aspect of "using the enemy's power against them".
>>
It's a ruse. Check the date at the bottom. It's a shoop of something from 2013.

Because Toei has localized English titles for EVERY show it makes, even the ones that will never be licensed. "Masked Rider" is just how they want it. Someone at Adness probably had to fight them to put "Kamen" in the title.

It kind of shits the bed with the finale though because Shinnosuke kind of becomes an afterthought, and Sigma was obviously shoved in there to give him a big climactic fight, even though the actual emotional catharsis of the finale comes from Gou beating the shit out his dad.

Heisei Rider's also toyetic as fuck.

The Showa Riders were somewhat loosely connected with all of them taking place in the same world; although Skyrider was supposed to originally be a reboot before becoming another series in the same timeline.

Heisei Rider is essentially Super Sentai with focus on a singular hero and his buddies instead of an entire team (there's usually a team but the main focus is one characteR). Also much more pretty boys once they started figuring out that one of the big demographics was moms who thought the guys were hot.
>>
>>77379863
Shinnosuke was likable, but Gou always had more of a character arc to him than Shin.
Same goes for Chase.

Actually, Toei switched from "Masked" to "Kamen" after Decade. Most likely because that is easier to license and has better brand recognition.

Masked Rider is generic as fuck and god knows how many western works of fiction have someone called "masked rider" in them. With "Kamen Rider" you can't think of anything but the Toei super hero show.

It's a bit early to tell what you could compare Ghost to since we don't know how the characters, action or plot is going to develop.

If you like the aesthetic style so far, definitely check out the post-Decade Heisei series (W/Double onwards, skip Wizard because it's shit) as they have the same sort of cartoony, lighter tone that Ghost has started with.

Also, Den-O has similar comedic dynamics with its characters and Takeru has a bit in common with Ryotaro, the main character from that series.

So what's the status of subs for Showa Rider? I remember the OG series and Skyrider were in the middle of subs, Amazon, V3 and Stronger were complete but that's it. This was a few years back since I haven't read /m/ in a long time.

Likewise same with the status of any Sentai pre-Megaranger.

Yeah, that's moreso post-Decade Heisei, although after the production team in Hibiki is where that started to set in.

Man I fucking miss the aesthetic of early Heisei. Agito, Blade and Kuuga are three of my top five favorite Rider seasons.

Production team CHANGE is what I meant to say.
>>
>>77380074
It varies from show to show.
>>
>>77380074

Depends on which series it is. Sometimes the Rider's civilian identity is a big deal to be kept secret, and sometimes they don't care.
>>
>>77380074
Somewhat, but it's seldom a major plot point. In the case of Fourze, which that webm is from, all the people on the stage were his allies, and he usually defeats the monster, then befriends the human that was overcome by it, so since they're his friends, it's okay for them to know.

It's his goal in life to befriend everyone at his school.
>>
>>77380074

Keep in mind, that is the finale episode of the series. Why would they bother at that point.

>>77379863

I'd only accept a Western adaptation of Drive if they got Chris Peppler to be English Mr. Belt.
>>
>>77380140
>It's his goal in life to befriend everyone at his school.
You mean everyone, ever, right?
>>
>>77380149

That final fight between them was such a fucking cop-out. I mean, Heart got an amazing monologue in, but the build up to it wasn't there properly, and it didn't get resolved in any satisfying way.

They should've pulled a Blade where the final "boss" fight happens a couple episodes before the actual finale and they spend the rest of the series wrangling with the ethical quandaries that the win condition creates.

>>77380183
I'm only about twelve episodes in.

Fourze did too many weird things towards the end that will put me off from saying it is better than Drive.

Same for W, though I think it trades off with a strong beginning. So W is like Drive in reverse for me. I loved the way W's set up. I loved the movies which were pretty much prequels. I like how it carried itself during the first half. However by midway, after the younger Sonozaki sister's weird ass heel turn and Weather's defeat, I didn't like the overarching plot as much. None of the final bosses interested me. Terror wasn't terrifying, Claydoll is stupid, and autistic benefactor man was just villainous comic relief. Not to say that the last half didn't have its moments, but the first half I enjoyed better.

Drive was just slow. Nothing really offensive, it sets the setting nicely nicely, but the first half is a slog to get through. Mashin Chaser's story was dragged out and Medic was used as a stall to help achieve that. Then they get better and Chase and Medic are redeemed in the writing. All the villains ended up strong. Even Banno made up for his late appearance by being an enjoyable, hateable bastard whose voice actor and suit actor gave it their A+ performance.
>>
So people really like Fourze, huh? I couldn't get into it at all. The suit was ugly, the gimmick was bulky, and it was in that two episode pair thing that made Wizard so unbearable. (Well, it was one of the things that made Wizard unbearable.)

That said, I absolutely loved Drive. I would kill to have Drive be imported and put on TV. I think it'd really work! You'd just have to make sure to get Chris Peppler to reprise his role.
>>
>>77379191
Boco succeeds once again in displaying his shit taste.
>>
>>77380371

W's main offense is that I can't take any of the villains apart from Isaka/Weather seriously.

I do agree, Fourze past the middle of the season where they realize "oh shit we need to get through the rest of the Horoscopes before the series ends" gets really weird. And fuck the Gemini arc.

Might be a mandated thing by Toei. Like Kyoryu Cyan's actor needing to sound like a stereotypical westerner speaking Japanese instead of a more realistic one because Japanese kid's understand it more.

>Drive was just slow. Nothing really offensive, it sets the setting nicely nicely, but the first half is a slog to get through.
Agreed, but I still think it could work on TV. Since Power Rangers get their episodes cut down, I figured it'd probably work the same for a hypothetical Kamen Rider, meaning just consolidating the earlier episodes so that it doesn't drag as much.

>>77380417
I LOVED Fourze's base suit. In fact for Fourze, I loved all the base suits. Base States Fourze, Meteor, Nadesico... but then there are the powerups. What an assault on the eyes they were. And they weren't as tied into the motif as I believe a spaceship/space themed Rider could be. They were just throwbacks to Super-1 and that was it.

Ghost strikes me the same way, but I don't hate the other Souls like I do the other States. I just don't think they work as well on Ghost's and Spectre's base suits as Ghost's and Spectre's own Souls do.

I both cases, I think it's a situation where they put working into making a good looking base suit without thinking how well the look would translate into other forms.

That's why I like W, OOO, and Wizard (at least for the regular Styles) because they had the alternate forms in mind. I also love Drive because they give the Riders mostly new suits entirely sans shit like Deadheat and Mach Chaser.

I felt the same way when I first watched Rider starting with Gaim.
Fourze there's one of the campier shows. The recent shows (2009 and after) put a lot more emphasis on fancy poses, fancy gimmicks, fancy motifs, fancy catch phrases... Not that they're bad, most of them are really good.

They could always use Omni Studios in Hong Kong if they're still around. Or could hire a bunch of old popular voice actors from the '80s to do 'em -- y'know, Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Robert Axelrod, Cam Clarke, Richard Epcar, Barbara Goodson, B.J. Ward, etc.

Yeah the guy in the front is kinda okay, just typical over-the-top japanese acting. It's the girls and the other people at the back that made me cringe.

If you guys say the MC is the type of guy who wants to befriend everyone, I might really watch the show someday. I like characters like that.
>>
>>77381056
The guy in front is also a massively popular actor now.
>>
>>77380736
Yeah and the guy who made Mazinger Z and Devilman was an assistant of the guy who made Kamen Rider which is why this exists.

Where do you start? I heard Ultraman is really important. Any similar to Symphogear?
>>
>>77381154
I'd recommend starting at either Kiva, Hibiki or Blade.
Those are commonly acknowledged as the best Kamen Rider shows and have all won several awards in Japan.
>>
>>77381154
>So Kamen Rider is a more serious Power Rangers
Not really. Kamen Rider is not team-based; it centers around the protagonist, even if the series is about multiple Riders like Ryuki or Gaim.

Also, every entry is different, and that's without taking into account the difference between the Showa and Heisei eras, so it's not on its own "more serious" than anything. There're the more lighthearted entries like Fourze, the more violent ones like Amazon or Kuuga, the darker ones like Faiz and Gaim, etc.
>>
>>77381033
That's a parody series, you don't have to watch it but it's pretty funny. Akiba is the same Gokaigers in the sense it's good to at least be familiar with Sentai Honestly Kanpai Senshi After V is funnier to me.

Start with either W or OOO for more resent shit, or Kuuga for early 2000s shit. If you something a tad more grim, go with Gaim, for something a tad more light-hearted, go with Fourze.

Not that anon but thanks for the recs. Which would you say is the easiest for a cape fan to get into. I've never been that into anime so a super Japanese show might be hard to get into. Unless it's nothing like anime, I don't know.
>>
>>77381416
Oh then you could probably still go for it and watch Gokaiger, but some of the enjoyment comes from seeing people from old Sentai series come back. I'll warn you it spoils a few Sentai in case you decide to watch them later.

Fyi, I'm pretty sure he's trolling.

Kiva's modern day arc is pretty panned, Hibiki got retooled, and Blade is decent except for chronic misunderstandings. I'm not sure if the latter two got decent subs, either. (I think someone tried scrubbing Blade?)

Fucking Christ, I love anime in my shows. but not Kamen Rider. that doesn't really belong in America that much. Although technically Super Sentai did come in here in the mid 90's and it was popular.

The original toku series is pretty fucking dated, being from the early 70's and all. It's also somehow even lower budget than Kamen Rider and Super Sentai from the same era, but it's a pretty fun, goofy show if you're into that sort of thing. The 2000 anime that aired on Adult Swim is typically a much easier pill to swallow for newer fans, being a more emotional, grim show that's closer in tone to Ishinomori's original manga, which was a tragic series.

Generation Kikaida, a Hawaiian based company that licenses old Toku shows that were popular in Hawaii, brought it over. Kikaider was a huge thing there in the 70's apparently, so they license pretty much everything with the character for release in the US.

They've done full boxset releases for Kamen Rider V3, Inazuman, Kikaider, and Kikaider 01. The only thing is that their full series sets can get pretty damn expensive, since they apparently print them up on an order by order basis.

For Western comics the closest you're gonna get is the old Marvel Masked Rider comic, and that new Power Rangers comic coming soon. As far as manga is concerned though you can find Ishinomori's original Kamen Rider series, which is available fully translated through Comixology, along with Android Kikaider and Inazuman. His Kamen Rider Black manga, which is pretty goddamn different from the show has also been translated into English but not through any official channels.

There's also Kamen Rider Spirits, a newer, more violent manga series that covers the adventures of all the old Showa Riders, up to ZX, after their shows are over, leading up to a bigger plot involving them all.

As far as Sentai goes the only one I really know is Ishinomori's original Himitsu Sentai Gorenger manga, which is very different from the show and comes across more as a gag strip. I'm pretty sure it hasn't been translated either.

Garo is aimed at an older audience and doesn't have to rely on toy sales like Sentai or Rider series. So it heavily emphasizes some darker themes, while still having literal Knights in Shining Armor as its protagonists.

Other things to note

>one continuous universe and story, so you'll probably need to start with the first series, unlike other toku shows where you can jump in anywhere
>mix of Arthurian legend, eastern spirituality and urban horror
>heavy emphasis on out-of-suit fighting.

I fucking love Garo, I highly recommend checking it out.

Why would any of you want more toku in the US? Americans dislike watching Asian actors and dubs are a joke here like the craptastic one 4Kids did for Ultraman Tiga. And subs would never work.

The only way toku is palatable for Us audiences is the Power Rangers formula; retain the Japanese costume and fight footage but add-in Western casts (white with token black, Latin American and Asian).

Shows like Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Ultraman are all about Japanese people who are superheroes and their distinct style of gimmicks and storytelling. You don't get that when you bring it over here.

Take DC and Marvel superheroes. They're accepted as US heroes and characters worldwide, they don't have to be "filtered" like toku does for the US.

We already have a huge portion of the CW dedicated to original programming that falls under the um rella of "toku" as special-effects heavy action genre. More specifically within the heroic narratives that define most of Japanese toku with things like Flash and Arrow.

It's already here, it just follows more western tastes and conventions and is aimed ostensibly at an older audience.

Fourze or Drive would be my top picks. My favorite series are all early Heisei but I feel it'd be difficult to localize them and that they'd try to hard to update certain aspects about it that would make it too jarring to fit the old and new footage together.

Plus Blade is just too perfect as it is and I don't want to change a thing about it.

Fourze is based in a Western-style high school so much of its writing and structure already translates pretty easily to American audiences.

Some people just can't get past subtitles. Not the reading part, but hearing character voices in an unfamiliar language. I dunno why, some people I've tried to introduce to good shows get thrown by that and can't get into the characters or story as a result.

>>77392762
So you get my post from earlier then. Unless it's through an Americanized lense, Japanese superhero shows can't be appreciated in this nation. That's why I don't understand why any fan of Kamen Rider would want it here. It'll either be a fuck-up like Saban's Masked. Rider or a well-intentioned miss like Dragon Knight. The US doesn't appreciate something like Kamen Rider.

It's not like every Kamen Rider or Sentai series is a perfect masterpiece either. Shit, I fucking love me some Garo but I'm not going to pretend that every series or movie put out from it is completely perfect and must not be sullied by dirty gaijin hands.

I never said Japanese shows are perfect. A lot of them suffer from bad acting and nonsensical plots. However at least the Japanese make it from scratch and utilize their own motifs and tastes since it's primarily intended for their audience.

Foreigner have no problems accepting American superheroes and don't need to localize them. They recognize that they're consuming a US work of fiction with its culture and style.

But god forbid Japanese superheroes being brought over here and not treated with gag dubs.

We should focus on perfecting our media before trying to adapt something most people have no fuckng clue what they're handling. WB is clueless and I have zero faith in them.

If they had to continue going only forward from whatever they pick, I would say Kiva. Skip Decade because that won't make any sense. Everything from Kiva onward is very western down to the motifs.

Blade might be good, but it has the bug aspect to it which I feel is the main thing that bothers western companies that have had any interest in distributing Kamen Rider. I feel like they don't like bugs that aren't Spider-man as super heroes because of some sort of "eww bugs" mentality.

That's because we enjoy superheroes regardless of their national origins.

I only watch it for Kai and Parasyte. Having toku air on Toonami sounds way too good to be true, so I know it'll never happen, even if Demarco disappears from existence by some magic.

>>
>>77379623
Showa had a very specific sense of heroism that I adored. I've seen 20 eps of KR1, all of V3, some of X, all of Stronger, most of Skyrider, all of Black, and all of RX, and I love all of them. It was honestly one of the most consistently good franchises imo, especially when god tier sagas like Ultraman had the unfortunateness of having Ace and Taro.

Heisei is extremely dependent on the show. Kuuga and Agito are god tier, W and Gaim are great, Fourze is ok, and the rest ranges from weak to awful.
>>

>>77398473

Ah yeah, I recently got into Kamen Rider back in February of this year when the Flash went on hiatus and I got interested in all the Drive webms people were posting. I was wrapping up grad school though and didn't have a whole lot to do in the evenings so I was able to marathon through literally a dozen series between then and over the summer.

Once I got a job and moved I just don't have the time to watch a whole lot regularly like I used to. I miss just making a pot of coffee and staying up late to blaze through 10 episodes of Rider at a time,

One thing I noticed when I first started watching Showa series is that there's this profound sense of loneliness and isolation for the Riders as a result of them being Riders and the main heroes of the story. It separates them pretty solidly from the rest of humanity and the possibility of having a normal life.

Some Heisei Riders get close to it, but usually they don't start out that way, it's a consequence that's faced later on in the series.

>>77398602
It's because it comments on Japanese society isolating "the outsider". The fact that the Kamen Riders are no different in terms of power and design to the monsters they fight is why they have to face these challenges alone.

To me, that's true heroism. Knowing that you've lost your humanity and yet you still fight on with a human heart against evil.

It's easy to be a superhero when you retain your human looks and have cool flashy powers or tech. But what if you were horribly disfigured and/or morphed into a horrific creature?

Would Peter Parker still be heroic if he was a giant spider (with his higher brain function)? What if Superman looked like a Xenomorph from Aliens yet has the same stoic sense of justice?

>>
>>77398768

Well all of the Riders have a human appearance they can pass as, so it's not quite to that level. But for the Showa Riders at least, they're still decided inhuman because of what makes them a Rider in the first place.

For Heisei they usually don't start off that way one notable exception for a main Rider is Takumi in Faiz but that's treated as a major twist halfway through, but, like I said, it's usually a consequence of them continuing to fight as a Rider as the series continues, for example, Kuuga, Blade, OOO and Gaim.
>>
You know what, I'm gonna say it.
Screw Fourze. The entire concept was fucked as soon as they did that stupid Gemini twist.
>>
>>77398925

Nah, Gemini was a really fucking dumb story arc, and the second half of the series in general was pretty weirdly paced, but the rest of the series is strong enough that I still recommend it as a whole.

Honestly Fourze's biggest problem is more that it has no idea what to do with the Kamen Rider Club kids after awhile..

>>77403947
>Using OOOs
Never going to happen.

The reason Power Rangers works is because all they need is to connect the replacement actor to the fight sequences.

Given that Ankh is usually in the same scenes as OOOs is, they would have to get the same actor to play him or edit frames.

Or have him be a dark-horse 3rd faction whose only purpose is specifically to come in during fights and taunt OOOs, meaning they'd not need to explain why his hair's inhuman or why he acts weird.

but then you'd not have icicle-fiend.

The only way I could see old Showa toku popping up on U.S. TV is probably through some kind of ironic hipster alternative television block like MTV had in the '90s with Liquid Television and Cartoon Sushi. Even then, it'd probably be all jokey like the Night Flight English "dub" of Dynaman and Spike's adaptation of Takeshi's Castle.

I wish there was a big enough audience to warrant showing old toku on American TV. I know the reason there aren't many stateside releases with official English subs is because the market is so niche and small (aside from rights licensing brouhaha).

But I'd definitely tune in to something like IFC if they just did a small thing like show old Astro Boy and Speed Racer episodes or whatever. Doesn't even have to be toku or anything new.

Yeah as far as I know the only actual official English releases are the Kamen Rider V3 boxset by Generation Kikaida, and Kamen Rider The First, which is pretty damn garbage. But Shout Factory recently started releasing full season sets of Super Sentai in English with Zyuranger earlier this year, and Dairanger coming out a couple days ago. They've got plans to do Kakuranger and more if Dairanger does well, so there's always a chance that if these are successful they could branch out into Kamen Rider.
