Articles, Blog, Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, toku, tokusatsu

Welcome back to Super Hero Synopses, where protagonists always find the strength to rise from defeat and fight on to victory! Kamen Rider Build recounts Ryuga's hitherto secluded backstory, while Ryuga demonstrates his conversion from sidekick to hero in his own right by coming back from a quick defeat and finds the inner strength to save his friends from certain death. Meanwhile, over in Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger the Lupinrangers are reeling from last week's disaster but their inability to give up leads them back to each other and - thanks to a monster-of-the-week with a useful hidden ability - back on the hunt again.

SUPER HERO SYNOPSES | Relatives Remembered

Articles, Kamen Rider, Movies & TV, Super Sentai, Toku, toku, tokusatsu

Welcome back to Super Hero Synopses, where it's dangerous to be related to Riders or Rangers. Kamen Rider Build continues its themes of identity, but also changes the mood by shifting the thrust of the story over to Ryuga (Cross-Z), who is about as close to a comedic relief character as the show gets. It seems that he too has a mysterious and unknown past, but unlike Sento he never recovered it until now. Meanwhile in Kaito Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger the tone is shifting in a more serious way, as Kaito (Lupin Red) finds that his target has a similar family situation to him, prompting him to try and help the very person he's also trying to rob. However, events outside of his control seem to make his chances of seeing his brother again about as remote as Ryuga's chance...

SUPER HERO SYNOPSES | True Identity

Articles, Kamen Rider, Movies & TV, Super Sentai, Toku, toku, tokusatsu

Welcome back to Super Hero Synopses, where Japanese heroes strive to discover who they really are. Kamen Rider Build has always had some element of identity within it. Whether it's Sento's (Build) forgotten past, as referenced in the new intro sequence introduced this week, Kazumi (Grease) pretending to have similar amnesia in an attempt to forge a new identity, or the initial mysteries as to who Rogue and Blood Stark were. But this week the question of identity falls to Misora, who displays all three of her personas this episode as the latest chapter of the story begins to dig into the question as to who she is or what is possessing her. Meanwhile in Kaito Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger the Global Police are trying to determine if a trio of mild mannered cafe workers ar...
