Plenty of stuff are going on for celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the Kamen Rider series (the Heisei series to be exact). Apart from having Kamen Riders from nine previous series to appear in DCD, another new Kamen Rider has already joined the battle ...
... not on the same battlefield as DCD. His name is Kamen Rider G.
Kamen Rider G is played by Inagaki Goro, a member of SMAP. Goro is said to be a huge fan of the Kamen Rider series himself. There's a possibility that "G" in Kamen Rider G is depicting his name.
I'm not familiar with the Japanese pop world, but I'm happy for anyone who got his/her dream realized. For Mr. Goro, he got to play Kamen Rider, and got his dream realized with a loud bang! ^^ His performance in the show is really cool.
I'm not sure if Kamen Rider G is another series that will run in parallel with DCD, which is going to be huge sensation to the fans, having two Kamen Riders series in a single season, or will it be a movie, or maybe he'll be the many wild cards in DCD.
Anyway, the first "episode" is up on Youtube for viewing ^^
Part 1 of 2. Follow this link to Youtube if you can't see anything.
Part 2 of 2. Follow this link to Youtube if you can't see anything.
The story is very simple to understand, and the explosions, 'sophisticated' Henshin poses, good old one-on-one fight, the bike, and the final Rider Kick really reminds me of those old days. ^^ Never mind the cameo appearance of DCD and his friends, I really enjoyed the show. ^^ Hope to see more of G soon :D
