Tokusatsu T’day: First footage of Kamen Rider Double
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009
Usually, each year we just get one new incarnation of Super Sentai or Kamen Rider. This September, Kamen Rider Double premieres. We’ve covered it in the past, but sometimes footage can do more than words and pictures.
Yes – I’m so excited about this new Kamen Rider. The idea of two different people becoming the same Rider. It might not be an original idea, but it sounds perfect for the humor and drama Kamen Rider is known for.
I’m so excited I can even forgive Decade ending early. (Though I’d still like to know if this was planning from the begining or for some other reason.)

The thing that keeps catching me about Kamen Rider Double is that, and I’m sure this is unintentional on Japan’s part, but it’s the second Rider series in a row that wholesale takes a concept from DC Comics. If Decade was Crisis Of Infinite Riders, Double is Rider Firestorm.
