It's already the 26th in japan and it would've been Nirasawa's 61st birthday and I wanna post some of his undead designs bc I'm bonkers for them. the details!!!

Capricorn Undead might be my favorite kaijin design EVER so far, it's just so cool in a patched together self created kinda trans way that drives me crazy. It's a shame he was taken out so little but I assume that suit must've weighted a million pounds and be extremely top heavy so they probably just parked a suit actor in the grass.

anyway i wish i could see a monster designed by him again.

It is the mid-1800s. You are Karl Marx. You have risen to prominence aming leftist circles, with your scathing attacks in contemporary Capitalism and Imperialism. You hear a knock on your front door. Your front door is shattered.

A very large black dragon, a veteran of the British Millitary, apologizes for the damage. His name is Temeraire, and he is a Member of Parliament.

He has read your work and wishes to discuss it with you.

had an epiphany about varian and eugene from the first episode

the ending of shin kamen rider makes my brain go brrrrrrr

[t-u-i-t-c]

"Mission clear."

+ bonus

[biomic]

this is an incredibly refreshing scene for one of these shows and im so relieved that there's no ambiguity around whether shoma's dad's abuse was justified or not because it was done out of "love". but now i worry im going to have this sinking feeling of dread throughout the rest of the year out of fear that the show will try to downplay or rehabilitate his actions later on

i think komura is making shoma and the show's stance as of now pretty clear here, but as history has shown it only takes one producer's note or premium bandai request for something like this to be completely upended

I would really enjoy to see an Alex!Spiderman AU, it would be awesome to be Spider-Man and a spy at the same time!

If you made this AU who do you think would be Deadpool ??

"I was your average teenage spy until I got bit my a radioactive spider in a SCORPIA laboratory and gained powers."

genuinely could not tell you who deadpool would be. like MAYBE tom, but even then I don't think so. None of them really have the adittude for it to me. I did see a post recently about how Yassen would be the Prowler and I totally agree.

The world is a stress ball when you are a constrictor :)

This is great, but I would've gone a little more old school with my team: Golden Bat, Moonlight Mask, National Kid, Astro Boy (Mighty Atom), Gigantor (Tetsujin 28), and 8 Man (although there a lot more to choose from).

Okay so we all agree that thw is gorgeous, everything about it looks amazing, but one thing that bothers me is that all of the characters look too soft? They look airbrushed and their skin is too smooth and their hair looks too clean?? I feel like the first movie did such a good job, you know their skin had texture and they looked greasy and dirty and stuff, and I feel like we definitely lost that as we went along? This might've been a problem in HTTYD 2 I'm not sure, but I feel like the 3rd movie is the worst offender

i also feel like they changed their teeth as they went along (if i'm not mistaken they were like 15 in the first movie, and by that point you aren't losing anymore teeth (and vikings don't exactly have braces)), like they look straighter and smaller and stuff.

I'm not even gonna get into what they did to Valka bc that was egregious.

🌻My thoughts about Erissa🌻

(because if I didn't share this information with these 2 people who will read this, I would be tearing off the panels with my teeth from the excess of thoughts in my head)

⋆｡ °✩⋆ ˚｡ ⋆୨🌻୧⋆ ｡˚ ⋆✩° ｡⋆

You know what she reminds me of now? If you spill something in the kitchen and it is difficult to wash it off, the kitchen floor becomes sticky for some time. It's a very unpleasant feeling when you walk there, because your socks or slippers or something stick to it... Erissa is the kind of sticky floor in the kitchen.

She gives me the vibe of a goblin who sits in the basement and she sits in the basement and everyone watches the sun... So she puts a stick out through this small basement window so that people can trip over it.

Even though she seems like such a mean child who doesn't respect anyone, do I see potential and a cool character in her? You can see that she is strong and does not hesitate to use her strength to the detriment of others. I feel the same way about her as I do with Darko, I'm supposed to dislike her and act against her, but does she have something nice about her? I would give her chocolate and a pat-pat on the head and tell her that she is a good child.

When I see her, I think "Playful destructiveness, realizing one's own agency" and on the one hand it is so silly, but on the other hand it is disturbing? Like Erissa, she seems to be an ordinary girl wearing a sweater made by her grandmother, but in fact she is some kind of demon with incredible strength that could kill anyone.

⋆｡ °✩⋆ ˚｡ ⋆୨🌻୧⋆ ｡˚ ⋆✩° ｡⋆

And here I should give an end, but this writing always comes out so akward to me, so I'll just say that Erissa promises to be a very interesting character (if they don't screw it up) and I'm glad that Darko is back BECAUSE DARKO IS GREAT. I love the sso fandom and I love Darko.

Take care of yourself in hot weather, don't overwork yourself, drink plenty of water and stuff :v

If you're interested in showa suit actors the big one to know is Nakayashiki Tetsuya, the original "Mr Kamen Rider", main rider suit actor for every season up through Super-1. He makes constant face cameos as truck drivers, disguised monsters, etc. in those shows too (I particularly enjoy him as the human form of the snake monster in Skyrider ep...9 I think?). He then played the rival character in the ZX special

Though also shout-out to Ohba Kenji who before he got cast in main hero roles, got his start as a monster suit actor in Kikaider. Which makes sense, he's an unparalleled stuntman

WHOAAAh I didn't know kenji ohba used to be a suit actor too...amazing.... looking Nakayashiki up has opened a world of showa production pics i'm so happy!!

found a page on the french rider fansite all about him including this recent image of him with miyauchi, i'm kinda emotional about this ahah

thank you for this im very excited to do research

My tokusatsu collection part 7. Hey, look! It's the Raven Banner version of Shin Ultraman and not that shitty Cleopatra Entertainment version! You want a good English release of Shin Ultraman, you get the Raven Banner version. I continue to be a tokusatsu collecting weirdo...

[valtharr]

Are Sentai/Rider-only people aware that we're now in the fifth year of Tsuburaya simulcasting new Ultraman episodes with English subs for free on Youtube, and in the second year of Tsuburaya simulcasting new Ultraman episodes with English dubs for free on Youtube? Like, do they know?

They should include every kind of holiday that involves the distribution of sweets throughout Gavv's run because dear, sweet Shouma, Halloween isn't the only delightful occasion! We also have the self-explanatory Pocky Day, cakes on Christmas, all the chocolate sales on Valentine's Day, birthday treat galore...and speaking of birthdays, I advocate for Shouma getting a birthday cake and he gets so happy that 1) he gets a super upgrade and 2) he's crying and he swears he's not sad, just the happiest he's ever been in his whole life (and maybe a part of him wishes his mum was here too)

"I wonder what manner of ending will be fit for him?"
