Kikaider Thread?

The manga is on Madokami. The anime is actually better from what I've seen of the manga since it's drawn better; as far as I know the manga is drawn mostly (or entirely?) by Ishinomori's assistants and thus is not as well drawn as stuff like Cyborg 009 or Sabu & Ichi. At least visually, I dunno if the anime changed anything but I kinda doubt it.

I've heard the live action is very different in tone (less serious) and by the small clips I've seen that seems to be the case.

Ishinomori-written Kikaider feels to me like the "dark and edgy" Astro Boy that Tezuka was temporarily forced by an editor into doing and hated, except done honestly.

>Is the live-action stuff any good?
live action is a live action show of its day
I got bootlegs of the Hawaiian subs and enjoyed it a lot, but I like a lot of the old stuff.

Thanks for the info.

Did anybody watch Kikaider Reboot? How is it? It looks good in pictures and trailers, but so did Kamen Rider: The First.

It's way better than The First, I tell you that. I like it.
