This week’s Lupinranger vs Patoranger opens on a distinctly lighter tone than Kamen Rider counterpart, Build, as we see a moment of comedic and heartfelt awkwardness play out in the middle of Jurer, with the whole of both Ranger teams in view. Keiichiro is talking to a beautiful woman, Mana, who gives him flowers, and after […]

WARNING: Major Spoilers ahead for this week’s episode! If you haven’t seen this week’s episode of Build, do yourself a favour and watch before you read this review! In the penultimate episode of Build so far, we see things play out in a way more akin to House of Cards or Game of Thrones than […]
Yeah, science! We open on an explanation of why Ganglers explode when killed, and how they can be revived as Kaiju. The prevailing theory is that the safe is the Gangler’s core. Before they can go into too much detail, though, we are met by this week’s Gangler attacking a wedding. It’s an odd crab-stingray-man […]
Sento has been taken over by Evolt, leaving the roles reversed from the previous episode. In Evolt’s own words, this is a downgrade he took for the necessity of survival after Sento’s plan from the previous episode nearly killed them both. The end result leaves Banjou free, but no longer able to transform. When he […]
Hero Mama League consists of Nono Nakami (Hurricane Blue), Reimon Marika (DekaYellow) and Ozu Houka (MagiPink). As we open the series, all three have married and become mothers, with children all around the same age who attend the same preschool. The film is short, only about 16 minutes long, but channels parts of both Super […]
Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Final is something of an odd film, an ambitious crossover akin to The Avengers, but also in the very familiar style of past Super Hero Taisen or Kamen Rider Generations films. We open on a battle between Ex-Aid’s Mighty Brothers XX form and several of the chicken-headed minions from Ex-Aid, then […]
The Patorangers are in rough shape following the events of episode 14. Keiichiro remains hospitalized, and the others are up and moving but hurt. We open the episode on Commander Hilltop entering Bistro Jurer. He already knows the names of each Lupinranger, but does not let on that he knows more just yet, citing the […]
Pandora’s Box has been opened, and Pandora’s Tower nears completion. Picking up where we left off, Evolt readies the Evol Trigger, a device very similar in design and use to the Hazard Trigger, and Vernage, through Misora, enters the battlefield to steal away Sento and Pandora’s Box. The power of the Bottles on each panel […]
We open this week on the police tracking Ganglers, using a device that looks like a cross between a megaphone and metal detector. It seems there is a monster hiding in the mountains, and as the police gather information from a local school, they see a boy dressed as a Lupinranger fighting with his mother […]
Episode 35 picks up right where the previous one left off, and the stakes have never been higher. Isurugi Souichi, Blood Stalk and half of Evolt, is missing. Evolt has fused with its other half, trapped inside of Banjou, and the newly-whole entity wastes no time in becoming Kamen Rider Evol, Phase 2. This form, […]
