TOKUSATSU MUSIC HIGHLIGHT:"Journey Through The Decade" by GACKT.
AND!
"Samurai Sentai Shinkenger" by Psychic Lover & Project.R.
Crossing Blades with Generations.
The year is 2009, and what a year!! Easily one of the best in tokusatsu history, and the party is only just beginning. For Kamen Rider Decade, it's an anniversary season celebrating the first 10 years of the Heisei era. The entire story is focused around a multiverse journey while our main hero tries to find out who he is and how he fits in all this. Shinkenger, my #1 favorite Sentai, is the first and so-far only samurai-themed squadron of superheroes. Thanks to Decade, this is also the first time Rider and Sentai have a crossover. The crossovers that happen in Decade are absolute hype, even if the story could be better. The fact that they got Gackt to do the theme songs is amazing as well (He never came back to tokusatsu, but the future never knows~). Almost ten years later (2018), Psychic Lover made an English version of their Shinkenger theme. The translation isn't great, but it's still interesting. They both got their fair share of movies, making V-Cinema movies very popular for tokusatsu. Get ready, because after this, tokusatsu media really starts to bloom~! It may be a while before we see either of these shows released internationally, uncut; but the best stuff is worth the wait.Let's Bushido On The Road, my crowd.
