With thanks to user YellowAccel from the folks at RangerCrew.com, we have some potential spoilers for the final episodes of this season’s Power Rangers Super Megaforce. For those questioning the validity, YellowAccel lives in France, and these potential spoilers are from the Canal J website – which is kind of like a Nickelodeon over there.
We will not post the spoilers on our front page – however, if you are interested in reading them, you may do so clicking here for the spoilers. What kind of spoilers do you ask? We learn, story-wise, how they will work in the use of the regular Megaforce suits while fighting Vrak as well as what role Orion the Super Megaforce Silver Ranger plays – as well as details on the return of the missing Robo Knight. We also learn a bit about Mavro, the father of both Prince Vekar and Vrak, as well as the events leading up to the finale “Legendary Battle”.
Thanks again to YellowAccel for the information. You can find his original post at RangerCrew by clicking here. Be warned – clicking the link will take you directly to his post. We have blacked out using our spoiler code on our forum so you can choose whether or not to read them.

What would Kamen Rider be without the Kamen Rider Girls? From guest appearances to catchy pop songs that play in each series, the Kamen Rider Girls have become almost as much as a staple to the series as the kicks and the motorcycles (…oops). And, just like in the earlier episodes of Kamen Rider Gaim, it would appear that a couple of the Kamen Rider Girls will be making guest appearances in the second episode of the upcoming Kamen Rider Drive!
Mitsuki Endo, known for representing Kamen Rider Fourze, as well as Hitomi Isaka, known for representing Kamen Rider OOO, will have guest roles in the second episode of Kamen Rider Drive, according to their personal Twitter accounts. As to what their role is in the series has yet to be announced.
Join in all of our discussion on the upcoming Kamen Rider Drive! This series looks to take us away from a lot of traditions (namely the motorcycle) and also bring back some former traditions that were missing from Kamen Rider Gaim. Join in our discussion and voice up your thoughts on everything as news breaks!
As should come as no surprise, the next installment of the Kamen Rider Ganbarizing Arcade Game will feature our newest hero, Kamen Rider Drive! Not only will he be featured in the next installment of the popular arcade game, some of his form changes will be as well, including (and certainly not limited to) Type SpeedFlare, Type SpeedShadow, and Type SpeedSpike. Check out the images attached to the news story for, you know, images.

Toei has opened an official teaser site for the next Movie Taisen project!
Kamen Rider X Kamen Rider Drive & Gaim MOVIE Taisen 2015 is currently set for release on December 13 2014! The tagline refers to Nonstop fruit-car battles!
At the time details on this project are minimal so stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this exciting crossover!
San Diego Comic-Con 2014 has come and gone, the TokuNation.com crew had a great time at the show, and of course we had to share a souvenir or two with you. So up today is our final entry (for now) in the long list of Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger/Mighty Morphin Power Ranger’s galleries we’ve worked on for the last year. Today we look at the 2014 Exclusive SDCC Armored Black Ranger!
A unique product of the “Zyu2” footage created for MMPR season 1, Armored Black Ranger is a very unique toy as well. This figure shares the honor of being one of only two truly US exclusive MMPR related figuarts released here, along with the female bodied Yellow Ranger. Created in response to the demands of the US market Armored Black Ranger is a fantastic release that continues the tradition of quality and excellence that the Zyuranger/MMPR line of S.H. Figuarts releases has had from the beginning. Likely the last releases in this particular franchise of figures, Armored Black Ranger ends it in style. This awesome yet briefly seen form from the finale of MMPR season 1 “An Oyster Stew” is incredibly satisfying to finally own. If you have the chance to pick this figure up, we highly recommend it.
To check out the full 60 image gallery of this fantastic release, just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And while you’re at it, take a stroll down memory lane with us too!

Kamen Rider Den-O has pulled back into the station for another round of Let’s Watch Wednesdays @ Tokunation!
Memories are time. As long as people hold onto them, the time erased by Imagin can be restored. Even the people lost can return. But if no one remembers you, you fall through the cracks of time ,travelling until you are remembered. The Sakurai Yuuto of the future has returned with more cards, forcing the young Yuuto to become Zeronos once more, and dooming him to fall through the cracks of time. Now Ryutaro’s determination to be stronger is greater than ever. To keep Yuuto from needing to transform and destroy more memories of his life, something greater must be created. Ryutaro will use his own power, Den-Liner, and the 4 Imagin to create Liner Form!
Den-O Trivia #13
We told you about the voice of Deneb, but now we’re looking at the man behind everyone’s favorite Imagin, Momtaros! Momotaros is brought to life by legendary voice actor Toshihiko Seki! Though his list of previous toku credits is primarily bit roles (Chameleon Nejire in Megaranger, Zebra Fangire in the Kiva Movie) Seki has been prolific as an anime actor.
His credits include: Rau Le Creuset in Gundam SEED, Duo Maxwell in Gundam Wing, Legato in Trigun, Iruka Umino in Naruto, and many other roles that span his nearly 30 year acting career. Mr. Seki has continued to voice the role of Momotaros since Den-O’s TV series began, even continuing the role all the way to this years Hesei Vs. Showa Featuring Super Sentai film! And it looks like there’s no end to this role in sight!
What appears to be the final release in the Arms Change line (for now) has just opened up for orders! And that means new official images are up as well!
