And there you have it. Not quite the list I would have predicted, personally. The idea that Ozawa Ryota aka Captain Marvelous isn’t here to represent Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger is a bit of an upset. And in what world does Iwanaga Hiroaki aka Kamen Rider Birth not get a nod from Kamen Rider OOO? A crazy, bizarro world, I say!
