Kamen Rider Gaim Celebration – Nine Days of Juicy – Retrospectives, Galleries, Give Aways

Posted on September 24, 2014 at 4:35 pm by Chris under Contests and Giveaways, Kamen Rider, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights

This weekend one of the most popular toku series of all time will come to an end – Kamen Rider Gaim is coming to an end with the airing of its final episode, “Transform! And to the Future!”, the 47th and final installment of this beloved series. It’s popularity has spawned one of the most successful merchandise toy lines (in both the Arms Change figures as well as the DX Lock Seeds and Sengoku & Genesis Drivers) in Kamen Rider history, and helped gain a slew of fans to the franchise that are either new or had stopped watching Kamen Rider thanks to the love it/hate it series of Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider Fourze.

Kamen Rider Gaim has been an incredibly popular series here at TokuNation.com, as our discussion threads of each episode have grown larger and larger each week as fans have registered to share their thoughts on each episode. And this weekend they will do it one last time (until the summer movie is released!). While our wallets cry as we continue to buy up all the Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise (who has got their S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kachidoki Arms yet?!?) we figured it was only fitting to give this series a proper send off here with Nine Days of Juicy, the Kamen Rider Gaim Celebration!

Over the course of the next nine days, starting on Thursday, September 25th, we will be posting an in-depth retrospective of all the Beat Riders, Armored Riders, and Energy Riders. Our celebration will end on Friday, October 3rd, right before the premiere of Kamen Rider Drive, the next installment of the Kamen Rider franchise. But what good is a celebration if the party has no party favors?

As we get close to the end of the celebration, followers of the TokuNation twitter account (@TokuNation on Twitter) will have a chance to win two S.H. Figuarts of characters from Kamen Rider Gaim! If you haven’t followed us on Twitter then you’d better hurry – our give away requires you to be a follower of our twitter account and to also re-tweet the give away tweet! Watch for it!

We hope you’ve enjoyed Kamen Rider Gaim as much as we have. So let’s give it one heck of a send-off by celebrating everything about the show – the good, the bad, and the simply confusing stuff! HENSHIN!!!!!

Talkin Toku Podcast Episode 015 – Talkin Toku is Back!

Posted on September 3, 2014 at 9:00 pm by Chris under Conventions, General Tokusatsu News, Kamen Rider, Power Morphicon, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates

Talkin Toku is back!

After nearly 2 months since the last episode with your regular hosts, the boys of Talkin Toku return! Join Kickback, Den-O, and Sentai Tamashii in the all new, all different, all unedited and uncensored Talkin Toku!

Since the last full episode, Kickback and Den-O have gone to San Diego Comic Con, and Kickback then went to Power Morphicon. Listen to his reactions to the overall convention as we talk the good, the bad, and the ugly! Special shout-outs to some good friends made over the weekend – Dan’s Toku Rants, the Toku Ladies Podcast, Zeron Xepher, and Shukuen Shinobi, as well as the guys from Ranger Command Power Hour.

We also discuss some of the latest collectibles that have come out that we’ve purchased – S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ryugen and S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gridon – as well as discuss a lot of the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge toys and information from Power Morphicon to the present – including the rumor that Saban Brands isn’t interested in adapting Ressha Sentai ToQGer!

There’s also some brief discussion on Kamen Rider Drive – our hopes and our fears – as well as whether or not we’re going to go “all in” on the merchandise like we did with Kamen Rider Gaim (and have loved every wallet-draining moment).

Finally – it’s Gaim Time. The boys discuss everything so far in Kamen Rider Gaim up through episode 43 including some of the parallels that the show has with some other Hesei era Kamen Rider shows (spoilers right there). Will Micchy redeem himself? And do we want Micchy to redeem himself? And just who – and what – is Kamen Rider Jam? And our thoughts on whether or not the show ends on Episode 46 (the final episode written by Gen Urobuchi) or if it ends on Episode 47 (the rumored Kamen Rider Drive hand-off episode featuring Kamen Rider Jam).

Also – we want to give you guys free stuff. So we’re going to come up with ways to get free stuff, including the convention exclusive Super Megaforce Red Ranger key as well as a Mighty Morphin Green Ranger translucent key, and more importantly, an entire set of Season 2 S.H. Figuarts Akibarangers. Stay tuned for that and throw some suggestions out in our discussion thread! Check out the episode directly linked to this post below! (NOTE: You have to push play!)

See you in a couple of weeks!

Gaim’s Final Villain, Kamen Rider Jam Revealed!

Posted on August 26, 2014 at 1:18 pm by Den-O under Kamen Rider

Despite Kamen Rider Gaim’s imminent ending in just 5 short weeks, it seems the show has one final surprise to throw at us! The actual, for real this time, one true villain of the series is revealed! Kamen Rider Jam!

The Jam suit is very clearly a reuse of the design shared by Kamen Rider Kamuro & Mars from Gaim’s summer film, with some major differences in color and accents. He also appears to be sporting a purple version of Gaim’s Daidaimaru. The Jam Lock Seed, unnamed at the time of this writing, very clearly resembles the Gold & Silver Ringo locks of the movie riders as well.

Click “Discuss on the TokuNation forums at the bottom of this post to be taken to our discussion thread with possible spoilers for the identity of this character. It’s currently unconfirmed, but indicators are pointing straight to the one person it could be.

Kamen Rider Gaim Will Be 47 Episodes Total

Posted on August 22, 2014 at 3:39 pm by Paladin under Kamen Rider

All good things must come to an end…

The latest magazine scans confirm that Kamen Rider Gaim will end with 47 episodes, the last one airing September 28th.

Interestingly, the last episode of the series is not written by showrunner Gen Urobuchi but instead by Jin Haganeya, the writer of the Gaim Summer Movie.

Some fans have speculated that Episode 46 will be the true finale of the series, with the alternatively-written final episode serving as a crossover of sorts between Gaim & the upcoming Kamen Rider Drive. This is a rumor at time of this writing; details are not yet revealed!

So, with only six episodes left, is there enough time to finish things off decently? Feel free to join in our Ongoing Gaim Rumor Thread and share your thoughts!

Ryugen’s Final Form Revealed: Yomotsu Heguri Arms!

Posted on July 27, 2014 at 10:45 am by Kiryu under Kamen Rider

While Kamen Rider Gaim draws closer to the final act, a new form for Armored Rider Ryugen has been revealed: Yomotsu Heguri Arms!

Putting this form into perspective, the name Yomotsu Heguri is quite possibly a reference to a Japanese myth involving the food of the dead, how this plays into the show is still unknown but could lead into some very interesting develoupments with everything else currently in play.

Do note that the credibility of these scans are still being put into question, this is still an unconfirmed rumor and should be taken with a grain of salt.

Talkin Toku Episode 13 Released – Why Not Zoidberg?

Posted on July 9, 2014 at 2:31 pm by Chris under Conventions, Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, San Diego Comic Con, Super Sentai, TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates

It’s time to talk some toku with the latest release from the Talkin Toku Podcast – Episode 013 “Why Not Zoidberg?”. Join Kickback, Den-O, special guest hosts baltmatrix and MonkieRanger, as well as two more “surprise” guests as they attempt to talk Kamen Rider Gaim, Power Rangers Dino Charge, and San Diego Comic Con 2014 news and rumors (which have all been debunked as of this morning, hooray!).

Find out what’s going on with all the Zoidberg talk as the gang discusses how to make Power Rangers Dino Charge the best series of all time. There’s an Arms Change missing from Kamen Rider Gaim – and the crew thinks Bill Cosby can fill that void. The gang spends a lot of time discussing the details of the plot of Kamen Rider Gaim leading up to and including Episode 35.

But with a grand total of six hosts on the show at once? You know it’s just going to fall apart. And fall apart it does – but in a way that guarantees you’ll be laughing. Be on the look out for a special video commemorating this episode to be released VERY soon! Take a listen! Stick around till the end for bloopers and things that we cut from the show but decided to include at the end.

Anime Expo 2014 – Kamen Rider Gaim Writer Gen Urobuchi, Power Rangers Alex Heartman and Hector David Jr to Attend

Posted on July 3, 2014 at 1:10 am by Chris under Conventions, Kamen Rider, Other Conventions, Power Rangers

Can you tell that the convention season is in full swing? Every weekend there’s another show with another toku-related guest appearing! And we’re struggling to keep up! But for those of you who are planning to attend this year’s Anime Expo you’re in for a special treat!

For starters – fans of Kamen Rider Gaim will have a chance to meet the man responsible for this incredible series. The writer of the series, Gen Urobuchi, will be in attendance at this year’s show. He will be hosting his own panel to discuss his current and upcoming projects, and will be appearing at the Good Smile Company booth to sign autographs on Friday and Saturday starting at 11:00am.

And for you Power Rangers fans, you too have reason to rejoice! Alex Heartman, known better as Jayden the Power Rangers Samurai Red Ranger, as well as Hector David Jr. also known as Mike the Power Rangers Samurai Green Ranger will be in attendance on both Saturday and Sunday at the Power Morphicon/Robo Toy Fest booth. Exact times and autograph opportunities have yet to be listed.

Anime Expo 2014 is THIS weekend. In fact, it technically starts Thursday, July 3rd and runs through Sunday, July 6th. We are pleased to state that TokuNation.com will be in attendance (simply as fans), but will share any and all information with you that’s made available – especially anything Kamen Rider Gaim related that Gen Urobuchi reveals! Stay tuned!
