Maybe because of the variety of monsters and the motorcycles.<br /><br />By the way, I tried to imagine you with the Kamen Rider Amazon's motorcycle, what I can say is this motorcycle would take a lot of place in your house lol<br /><br />Shin-chan is amazing! You should watch it! lol<br />I really like the manga, it's really witty.<br />There are so much to say about Shin-chan.<br />But now when I read Shin-chan, I also have a special thought to Usui Yoshito since he passed away, I'm thankful to his creation of Shin-chan, it always makes laugh when I'm tired or sad.Takonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323571674926016503.post-71523269463917265282011-10-29T18:33:14.629-07:002011-10-29T18:33:14.629-07:00Haha Shin-chan.

Although I wasn't allowed to watch it in Japan because my dad thought it was too stupid.<br /><br />Yeah~ there are some cool looking Kamen Rider figures. It's funny that a lot of old men still collect these things that they liked as kids.<br /><br />Haha and yes Kamen Rider has had a huge influence on Japanese pop culture. It gets mentioned in lots of shows, anime/manga etc. It's prone to getting parodied too just like you've pointed out. Probably more so than the other super hero guys too, like Ultraman etc.GodzillaRadiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02740668791641571035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3323571674926016503.post-35271237192480792852011-10-25T10:28:13.886-07:002011-10-25T10:28:13.886-07:00My favorite Kamen is Action Kamen (aka Masked Much...My favorite Kamen is Action Kamen (aka Masked Muchacho)!<br />http://tviv.org/Crayon_Shin-chan/Action_Kamen<br /><br />Though except him, I don't know very much about the Kamen series.<br />I often see episodes subtitled by fans on the web but seeing there are so much, I never tried to watch some episodes.<br />I'm more familiar with Super Sentai through Power Rangers with the serie broadcasted in the 1990's (I never watch the recent one).<br /><br />What I know is all Kamen collectible figures are expensive! At first, I wanted to buy one because it looked cool and well-done but after seeing the price... eehm... lol<br /><br />On wiki it's written Kamen Rider character was based on Ishinomori Shotaro's prequel characters Cyborg 009 (created in 1963), 8 Man (also created in 1963) and Skull Man (one-shot manga from 1970). And it was Ishinomori's son who did the choice of the Kamen Rider design Grasshopper.<br /><br />It seems like Kamen Rider influenced a lot the Japanese culture, such as Shin Chan with Action Kamen/Masked Muchacho or SMAP's "Kamen Renaider", etc.Takonoreply@blogger.com
