Breifly alluded to in episode 9 of Kamen Rider Gaim, it looks like the energy riders will be appearing sooner than we’d thought. And, it appears we already know at least one  of them.

Of course we already knew that Shin Zangetsu would be Zangetsu’s upgraded form so no secret identity there.  However, Kamen Rider Duke is in fact

Spoiler:
Ryoma Sengoku, the creator of the Sengoku drivers!

And Kamen Rider Marika will be a young woman named

Spoiler:
Yoko Minato.

The identity of the Cherry Energy Rider, Kamen Rider Sigurd, is still a mystery. But if you’d like to see the image confirming the identities of Marika & Duke then click this story for the spoilery goodness.

Since the end of Superhero Taisen Z, Toei has been strongly hinting at the return of Ishinomori’s other classic cyborg hero, Kikaider.

Recently, Kadokawa publishing (the group behind the recent Kikaider novelization) has confirmed that a new Kikaider movie will premiere next year. Exact details are still not confirmed.

under Power Rangers

A number of fans have been collecting the Power Rangers Action Card Game by Bandai Cards which feature nearly every single Power Ranger as well as various villains, Megazords, and special moments in the history of Power Rangers.  And thanks to our friend Fury Diamond at the Samurai Cast Blog, we have some new details about the soon-to-be-released Series 5 and our first details about Series 6!

The Series 5 cards will be released, tentatively, in February 2014.  The title and the first preview image will not be released until closer to the end of the month.  Be sure to watch the official Facebook page for the preview (and we will bring you the news here as well!).  Series 5 is the largest “Booster” set to date, with over 180 cards.  You will find some reprints of earlier series cards with new numbers, and this series boasts being able to unlock every single sound phrase in the Power Rangers Megaforce Gosei Morpher, which utilizes the cards.  This series of cards does NOT contain anything Super Megaforce related.

Series 6 has been teased as well – the acronym of the title is KoP and DOES feature Power Rangers Super Megaforce, but it is hinted that the word “Key” is not part of the acronym.  However the title is stated to be influenced by Super Megaforce.  Pretty snazzy!

Do you collect the Power Rangers Action Card Game cards?  What’s your favorite, or what card are you struggling to get a hold of?  Let us know!  Thanks again to Samurai Cast Blog, and a special thanks to Henshin Grid Blog for the super-awesome Zeo Gold Ranger card image for me to use in this story.

For the first time ever, Power Rangers will be offered on Free Comic Book Day.  Thanks to Samurai Cast Blog we now know that Papercutz, who announced at San Diego Comic Con 2013 that they were doing a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers graphic novel due for release in June 2014.  This special Free Comic Book Day comic will be a tie-in to the first graphic novel release, and will feature the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the White Ranger.
