With Kamen Rider's 50th anniversary celebration still going
strong, and the recent release of Shin Kamen Rider in North
America, what better time to talk about just how huge an impact
Shotaro Ishinomori's original creation had on Japanese pop
culture...including it's huge influence on anime, manga, and
fandom in general! And joining me to chat about it is none other
than the Tokusatsu Troubadour, Mach Dent! Listen as we discuss
how everything from shonen anime to magical girls to video games
have been influenced by Kamen Rider, how easy it's gotten to get
into the franchise now in the US, and going on random fun
tokusatsu tangents! Listen in and join the shenanigans!
