Title: A Denou Clip
Post by: Sword on January 31, 2007, 08:14:48 PM
This is on the subject of Kamen Rider Denou, previously covered.
In these shows, there's a situation called Turnaround time. Simply put, it's the time it takes for the hero to go from being mugged to mugging for the cameras. Faiz had it at 30 seconds, Blade at 25, Kuuga at 15, and Kabuto at 25.

Denou... well, he goes for 1:40. Here's the clip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=QXjoof8DW_g

semi-on topic:  Did anyone catch this Superbowl ad?  Fans of Japanese spandex heroes seem to be the target audience.

caught it, loved it. It's a great tribute. Last year, when the commercial was made, Ultraman celebrated its fortieth anniversary.

Fourth Part, Resolution.

This is some brutal stuff. It took me seven episodes to be this impressed with Kabuto.

Hero's meant to be a wimp. When he's in armor, his own personality falls back and he's taken over by whichever Imagen is in form at the moment. Though falling back is not the same as falling off. Ryoutarou acts as a conscience for these monsters.
