Kamen Rider The Next
Well, I haven't really watched Kamen Rider the First, but I guess this was good enough to stand alone as long as you know of Ichigou and Nigou's origins.
Really, the most impressive thing I liked about this is the somewhat renewed costumes, I was actually stunned by it, it's like Ichigou, Nigou and V3 like I've never seen them before. Well, how would I put it, this was an adaptation of the original Kamen Rider V3 series, but the enemy org is still the Shocker, Shiro Kazami had a different story on how he became a cyborg here since it is just an adaptation. But a really awesome one too. Haha, despite the seriousness of this film, I actually had a bif laugh when I saw a Filipino who appears as an extra for the scenario, he talks to Takeshi Hongo in tagalog! Duh, stupid bitch, as if Hongo will understand what she was saying trying to tell Hongo never to return to that place. Well, the henshin was pretty much a failure though, showing the belt animation and then you see them in rider outfit and puts on a grasshoper helmet and then attaches a mouth piece. In here, V3 was an antagonist at first, another cyborg created by Shocker through a new method. But around the half of the film, he becomes neutral and later on becomes an ally to help the double riders in fighting the shocker riders, Chainsaw Lizard and Scissors Jaguar. Nigou had the bitter end here but the adaptation was good enough I guess.
Anyway here's a comparison of the old costumes to the new costumes, I seriously like the movie rendition of V3, he's friggin' awesome. Haha, how I wish these were the costumes used in the upcoming All Rider vs. Dai Shocker moview, but they'll be using the old one. Meh.
