Kendrix’s Last Stand
Most of you may have know this, but I thought this rumor had been debunked. I just heard it today while listening to the R5 Central Podcast that the Den-O/Kiva movie is a reality! Sucks that I didn’t really dig on Den-O, but I know a lot of people did. It also breaks my heart that the one Kamen Rider Series that stands above all others, Kamen Rider Kabuto didn’t get the same kind of love.
Ah well, congrats to the Den-O fans and let’s hope this becomes a new Rider tradition. Click the above picture to check out the Kamen Rider Den-O vs. Kamen Rider Kiva trailer, and Wake Up to the Climax!
