The Future of the Kamen Rider Franchise!

Hey heroes… I got word from a little birdy that knows a thing or two about what’s going on over at TOEI. As usual I can’t reveal my source, but it’s legit.

I got to talking to him and asked something that’s been on my mind for a while. What’s up with the new Kamen Rider schedule? With Decade ending early and Kamen Rider W kicking off in the fall, when would we see the end of W and the beginning of whatever comes next?

This is what he had to say…..

Mr. Shadow: I heard TOEI is thinking of renewing Kamen Riders’ now every fall instead of following a close pattern to Sentai.

It goes more to the marketing of new toys… They`d make more selling stuff in the fall/holiday seasons… look at how popular the Double Driver belt is… can`t find it anywhere!

Plus it`s a new pattern for upcoming movies to come as well.

Since we get like 3 /4 rider films a year now.

Henshin Justice: W could go ’til next Fall?

Mr. Shadow: Most likely… look at how well last year`s half year run of Decade and having the winter movie did for TOEI sales.

The same will happen with Double and we`ll have a special team up movie next Christmas too. 😀

Marketing…

Plus fan service always works well with TOEI

So, there you have it first… I’ll let you know more when I know more. 🙂

  • When you start off with anything like "I know this guy but I have to keep it secret" that raises all kinds of red flags. Especially in this fandom.

  • Yeah I know, but since it's me... you know you can trust it. I have no need to make things up around here.

    And my source is definitely more inside than Dukemon.

  • Yeah you are pretty good about being honest, but I just don't believe these rumors anymore till i see concrete facts. It's nice you are telling people though.

  • It's not me lol, but it is definitely on track with the rumors I've seen about why they changed gears.

  • Interesting bit of news. I suppose it does make sense to go that route, but that means we won't know anything about a new KR series until the middle of this year (excluding the rumors and such that we usually get). Whatever. More W=Win!

  • Dont know who the source of keith is, but this is old news to me. One of the W producers said these same things in an interview for a japanese magazine, like in september.
