Kamen Rider Still Riding (and Kamening) to America
Posted at 11:09 AM Apr 28, 2008
When we last saw the American preview for Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, the actors were godawful and the show was due on February 27th. Now the show is supposed to premiere at some point this year, and I've upgraded the acting from godawful to merely bad. My new biggest problem is that the main hero looks like a giant 5-year-old. Incidentally, there are apparently 13 different Kamen Riders in this series, so don't give yourself a hard time if you have trouble telling them apart. (Via Japanator)

This looks phenomenally stupid.

The Riders predate fiveman shows by a long shot, if anything, Power Rangers are Kamen Rider Wannabes *BUT* I agree, this doesn't look very good. I freaking love Kamen Rider and was hoping for much more.

Heaven forbid we ever see an actual Asian man in any of these adaptations. That would be all crazy and stuff! You can only have Asian women in lead roles, men have to be supporting characters and/or comic relief.
