Past Rider Actors Expressed Their Thoughts About Shigeru Araki’s Passing.
It’s very sad to be typing this entry, so I’m going to keep it short.
Araki Shigeru, most known amongst tokusatsu circles as having played Jou Shigeru/Kamen Rider Stronger passed away on the 13th April.
As I said in my comment on orend’s blog, the world is much poorer for his loss.

Apparently I need to look at my LJ friends list more often…
Again, NSFW, but おぷりんす has recently posted two variants of a portrait of Tackle and it’s pretty awesome/suggestive stuff:
"Tackle lays down on the job"
Super Hero Retsuden keeps getting better and better. Whilst I still think that it’s too much to expect cameos from Skull Man or Suipadaman (especially the latter!) the fact that Tackle makes an appearance and is a playable character is several hundred kinds of awesomeness.
"What? Lifetime membership to Tachibana Racing Club you say?"
Meanwhile, speaking of Skull Man, I updated 日々冒険 not five minutes ago with brief comments about the first episode of the 2007 Skull Man anime and the 2006 adaptation of Ishinomori’s 009-1 featuring idol, actress and Godzilla movie franchise veteran Shaku Yumiko.
In other news, this morning I have spent most of time re-watching Kuuga, the original Kamen Rider and Faizu…I’ve warmed a lot to Kuuga simply because of Yuusuke the 2nd in DCD; the original Rider series is still a classic, like a cross between The Man from UNCLE and Godzilla – pure genius, especially with Hong Kong subs; Faizu is still just a boring as ever. It’s like everything Andrew Cartmel tried to do with the last series of Seventh Doctor era Doctor Who…but wrong. My wife gave it a more favourable review due to its pacing being so much like that of a standard drama. I, however, disliked it immensely due to its pacing being so much like that of a standard drama.
And now I’m off to watch DCD!
