Kamen Rider (1971) - Why We Love It (HD)

The original Japanese television series “Kamen Rider” follows the adventures of a masked grasshopper-like, motorcycle-riding cyborg. Kamen Rider fights villains from Earth and space, starting by getting revenge on the organization who created him to use for their own purposes. Along the way, he manages to ally with other mutants like him who work together to protect the world from these evil organizations. Check out all of the action and watch TokuSHOUTsu on Pluto TV for more!

Takeshi Hongo, or more specifically Hiroshi Fujioka, is a legend. He could act, he could do his own stunts, he could sing his own theme song!

Why we love Kamen Rider?
Me: Henshin! Jump than land do Rider pose and say “Everything”.

Even if their design looks simple and they don't have that many attacks/tricks, everything they do seems so powerful and full of wisdom, no need for all the exaggerated effects and toys like the ones that came later.

I love how Shout translates Kamen Rider with official license from Toei, making it easier for fans to access or be introduced to the series, I thank you for that. I really enjoyed Kuuga, so I hope the next series is Agito personally, but I’d be fine with V3 (next Showa series after KR1) or if we’re doing one per era in a pattern, Zero One can start Reiwa since that wrapped not too long ago!

In the early '70s in Hawai'i, KIKU, the local Japanese language TV station, televised a lot of subtitled tokusatsu (though we kids of "Generation Kikaida" never even heard the term). While Kikaida was the most popular series, Kamen Rider V3 was my personal favorite. Kazami Shiro was cool and heroic, and the series left me wishing I could see the first Kamen Rider series from which it proceeded. Now, all these years later, I can finally have my wish. =^[.]^=

Too bad failing to Brainwash a rider became a laughing stock.

Sentai use the power of light while rider use the power of darkness.
