I've been meaning to get into toku beyond power rangers for years but i wanted to learn japanese first. and then i didn't. that said, i have seen a solid amount of early kamen rider, so that's nice at least

many apologies for an uninformed response but I've been meaning to get into kr for quite a while and its somewhat intimidating ?! do you have any suggested entry points or really just personal favorites from the franchise :0?

Gavv is the most recent but also very good to start out on. It's pretty feel-good though. I'd recommend Geosubs if you watch it. OOO and Ryuki are two others I'd say are pretty digestible.​ But honestly, watch whatever looks cool to you. There's bound to be a show that has a theme that'll stand out to you.

frost. been there. get in here too.


hi decade. whats good


re: ram. i think the best place to start is whatever season appeals most to u! imo. i would start at the beginning of an "era" (the shorthand for thematic eras of the show, delineated by the current emperor and era of japan. the 3 that rider has gone throw are showa [70s-80s], heisei [2000-2009], "neo-heisei"/heisei phase 2 [2009-2018] {the emperor was going to step down and decided not to, dont worry about this too hard}, and reiwa [2019-current]). this being said, my top entry points would be kamen rider kuuga (heisei 1, legally available in the us), kamen rider w (heisei phase 2, not legally available in the us), kamen rider zero-one (reiwa, legally available in the us), or kamen rider gavv (currently airing and ending next month, not legally available in the us right now).


alternatively, if you wait until september, you can watch kamen rider zeztz as it airs. it's the first time that a rider season is going to get a simultaneous us release, and its all very exciting.


but truly, at the end of the day, every season is someone's first. there are some i would say eh maybe dont do that one, but do whatever you want forever. if you want to start on the anniversary mega crossover season, have fun.


if you need any help finding a specific season, just hit me up in this thread or @saoirse.exe on discord! i looooove toku and want to share with the world.
