Okay this was a little surprising- OG Kamen Rider-

[sc ikaiju]

As you might know Shout apparently lost the original Kamen Rider Licence, it's off their YouTube channel and Tubi. At the time no one knew what the future for it was going to be. Then yesterday, out of the blue. Toei put the entire thing on their Toei Tokusatsu world channel. Well the rest of the series, the first two episodes were already on there. Now like with their releases of Agito and Kabuto and the Gaim soccer movie, EPS 3 to the end is only up for a limited time., listed as 2027 4/2, so either February fourth or April second depending on how they list their dates of next year. So a pretty amazing little surprise https://m.youtube.com/@toeitokusatsuworldofficial2399

This is a fantastic surprise! OG Kamen Rider has such a rich legacy, and it's awesome to see Toei putting it out more widely. I remember discovering the original series back when I was deep into the Power Rangers mythology, so it feels like a full-circle moment.

The limited time offer for episodes after the first two is interesting, especially with how they've been doing this with other series like Agito. I wonder if this means they might have more plans for Kamen Rider releases down the line. Do you have a favorite episode or character from the original series? For me, it's hard to beat the charm of Hongo Takeshi!
