I realize that this might be a strech, but there might be some other Kamen Rider/ Sentai fans here than just me and Psyke. If not, become one. TV-Nihon subs most of the series that are released.
TV-Nihon
This year, there is a new Rider and a new sentai.
Kamen Rider Kiva seems....a little off so far. t's not as good as Den-O initially was.
The new sentai has yet to release, but I'm already sceptical of it. It looks.....idk >_<
For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.
I was wondering the same thing recently, about whether anybody else here watches Tokusatsu.
Super Sentai is too aimed too much for kids, sadly.
Garo is a nice start for beginners, due to its mature themes. After that, Kamen Rider Kabuto and Kamen Rider Den-O make good series to start too. Den-O just ended its run in Japan last month, and it's a runaway success. I loved the series and bought everything associated with it.

Yea, most sentai is way to kiddy. Hence why I dont like the look of Gonger, the new sentai. Gekiranger was so awesome, but this looks so...meh.
Den-O brought so many characters into the mix with different personalities. Thats what did it for me.

Gekiranger was good, and the only sentai which I can swallow of late. Still, there are plenty of good tokusatsu shows nowdays, including late-night slots catered for adults, such as Garo and Cutey Honey The Live, which I feel is absolutely fantastic.
Garo's ended for quite some time now, but here's a clip for those interested to know more.

Well, Kiva has started and I like the story so far. It keeps flipping between the two time, and the more the show progresses, the more you get. So far, I like the new rider.

I can't really get into Kiva yet, and the whole violin playing thing is getting boring. Guess I'm still comparing it to Den-O. Not started on Go-onger so can't comment, but Cutie Honey is awesome. Check out this scene in a recent episode, with a Gundam reference.Originally Posted by Phoenix20578

The violin in Kiva is great. But yea, if you compare it to Den-O, its nowhere near as good, but few things are better than Den-O.
As for Go-Onger, I refuse. It looks way to kiddy for me to even stomach.

I cast ressurect on this thread >_>---------------------------*.
Though I don't really expect much discussion since it seems there are only 3 people (me included) watching these shows.
Man I just got to watching the cross over between shinkenger and Decade and it was utter badass, heck all of Decade so far has been great and I'm actually quite dissapointed its going to end so soon just to make way for Kamer Rider Double ;[.
Looking forward to ep 26/27 with the Black/RX crossover, should be good =D.
Also I'll definitly check out the upcoming Kamer rider: climax heroes for the ps2.
Kamen Rider W looks gay and I want to punch the 2 main leads whenever I see them. Still, Decade rocks although Tsukasa is getting a little boring, and is no where as cool as Tendou was in Kabuto

Indeed, but I think Tsukasa is the way he is, because he doesn't really have a purpose, he is just wandering around.Kamen Rider W looks gay and I want to punch the 2 main leads whenever I see them.

Anyway 26/27 were badass, really nostalgic seeing black RX. I also noticed so far Decade final form hasn't been hit once, he is pretty much the rider god so far, even if Kuuga's ultimate rising turns out to be more powerful, Decade could just henshin into him as well ;P.
Black was the first rider I've ever seen, think I was around 8 or 9 years old. Minami Koutaro is still awesome and his henshin sequence still kicks ass. Kuuga, on the other hand, is becoming a joke, haha.
And yes Johnbear, Geki was pretty awesome. The story was very good, and so were the action sequences. I watched Go-ongers after that for the humor, but I can't get myself started on Shinkenger.

I recently started watching Den-O and found it to be awesome. This is my first experience with Kamen Rider.
Is there a particular need for me to watch the series in order or are they loosely related like the sentai series. Can you guys also recommend which are the ones i should be watching first?
Well if you plan on watching decade, which you should, then watch all of them, I personally would start with Kuuga.
I've never watched Kuuga, but I've watched all the Heisei Kamen Rider series, except for Ryuki but I'm about to complete it soon.
Den-O is one of my personal favourites, due to the imagins and their interactions with Ryoutaro. I'd recommend Faiz or Kabuto as they're pretty easy to pick up. Pick Hibiki later as it's very much different from the rest, but still really good.

Kamen Rider W (Double) debuts in Japan this morning. I'll miss Decade but at least he still has one more movie coming by the end of the year.

I just finished Kiva and am half way through Decade. Did you guys get a chance to watch All Rider vs Dai Shocker? the movie was suppose to premier last month.
I just finished decade and it is really by far my favorite rider show so far, and it's really obvious it could've lasted at least another 10 eps, but at least he still has the movies.
Also watched the first ep of double and it was actually a lot better then I thought, prolly cause I was set out to hate it.
I liked the jazzy tunes, the detective vibe and the gaia chips calling out like decade and double had a pretty interesting rider kick. I still really dislike philip though, so gay ;(.
Also double was pretty cool with the double voice, too bad it only happened once
I just finished decade too and it was awesome! I can't wait until the december movie since there's still a lot of mysteries left unanswered (damn sea cucumber).
I'd have to say that Den-O is probably my favorite since it was just pure joy to watch. I was dying when Decade was using his Den-O cards in kabuto's world and Ore Sanjou showed up. Kiva has the best costume designs though, Emperor form just looks so wicked.
I watched the first ep of Double and thought it was pretty good, i was initially impressed with the monster design since i thought they would keep the fire CG the entire time, but that was too good to be true.
So W just Ended and OOO is the new rider.
How do you guys feel about Kamen Rider Traffic Light?
