LA Comic Con 2025 – Kamen Rider Zeztz Recap

Posted on September 30, 2025 at 1:57 pm by Chris under Kamen Rider, Other Conventions

This past weekend was Los Angeles Comic Con (LA Comic Con) and for the first time ever, Kamen Rider was officially in attendance at its own dedicated booth.  With special thanks to Toei, we can share a recap of the events, including the panel with Kamen Rider Zeztz producer Hideaki Yanaka and a video recap from Toei.

Here are the highlights from Kamen Rider‘s first ever official LA Comic Con appearance:

  • Kamen Rider ZEZTZ panel with special guest, ZEZTZ Producer Hideaki Yanaka – Producer Hideaki Yanaka shared insights into how ZEZTZ was created, explaining the thought process behind the world-building and components that shape the series. The panel drew a full house, with fans lining up to ask questions, reflecting the deep enthusiasm surrounding Kamen Rider’s future. He also revealed that the secret of the heroine, Nem, will be unveiled in Episode 6, giving fans a thrilling hint of what’s to come.
  • World Simulcast Spotlight: Kamen Rider ZEZTZ – Fans are able to watch the latest entry in the franchise, Kamen Rider ZEZTZ, the first Rider series to simulcast globally with English subtitles.
  • North American screening of the movie, “KAMEN RIDER W Forever: A to Z / The Gaia Memories of Fate” with English subtitles – A special screening of the movie from one of the most beloved Kamen Rider entries, Kamen Rider W, for the first time at Comic Con.
  • Kamen Rider ZEZTZ Meet & Greet – The first Comic Con booth for the franchise featured Kamen Rider ZEZTZ in person to meet fans, a first for fans in North America.

Here is Kamen Rider Zeztz producer Hideaki Yanaka with a few words for the appearance of Kamen Rider in the United States:

“The passion from the fans has been even more incredible than I expected. Meeting Kamen
Rider fans not just from the local area but from around the world who came a long way to be
here has been truly inspiring. It is through the support of passionate fans like you that this series
will continue to grow and thrive globally.”

Yanaka also spoke on the creation of Kamen Rider Zeztz and his vision for the franchise:

“From the start, ZEZTZ was created with international fans in mind, while also staying true to the
old Kamen Rider series. The series modernizes the story and concept so new audiences can
understand what makes Kamen Rider unique, while including Easter eggs and callbacks to past
series for longtime fans to enjoy. Our goal was to create something that Western audiences
could relate to, similar to American superheroes.”

To conclude – here is a video recap of Kamen Rider Zeztz at LA Comic Con 2025!  Enjoy!  Mission start!
