Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight

The show is Awesome! as an adult the show rocks big time.Love the costume and motorbikes;kick butt martial arts.And Nightwing that girl is really HOT!! and it's good to see girl in some of these action show too.I miss a few episodes early show because it's on Saturday @ 11:30 am but Istill manage to keep up the some of the stories and plots devices/ As an adult I can remember a show called "Jason of StarCommand" back in the late 70's and it's good the see some live action shoe on TV;cartoons seem to be getting old but there's a few cartoons on TV are not that creative as there were long ago;now it crap viewing on Saturday morning,so I'm glad to see this action show on and it keeps my interest.

Although I never finished watching the show and such, my sudden patience of a new Power Rangers season was starting to break down. That is, until I heard of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight. And much like Power Rangers, it also came from Japanese footage; however, Power Rangers originated from the Japanese Action show "Super Sentai". And Kamen Rider Dragon Knight was named the same thing in its Japanese predecessor. I was actually was glad the show came on when my patience was starting to decline. It had cool battle scenes, amazing special abilities, and ultimate finishers and power-ups that I found interesting, along with a great storyline that actually made a lot of sense, at least to me. Bottom line, I loved how the show went, even though I never finished watching it. I highly prefer this to anybody rounding from ages 6-9, or for anybody who has been a fan of Japanese action shows and its adaptations at any age whatsoever. For the time being, it served as a good cover-up, but nothing will ever beat Power Rangers,even if the ratings drop horribly.

ORE...SANJOU! (Er...sorry. Watched ten episodes of Den-O plus a movie.) This series isn't "good" or "bad" its just average. Well I guess average is bad for me. I've tried watching this series several times and just something about it just pisses me off when ever I watch it, its not the acting or the story though. Regardless of that, the show is pretty average. But then again, so was Kamen Rider Ryuki (the Japanese original the show takes itself after).

BTW! This show isn't suppose to be a KIDS show, its actually suppose to target teenagers. It's market is suppose to be 12-16. So stop trying to hide behind its "a kids show". Furthermore! Its "a kids show" shouldn't be a defense for any show. Are you saying children are stupid? ONE MORE THING! Why does there need to be an American Adaptations? Whats wrong with the original Japanese version? Are you saying children are too stupid and don't deserve to experience other cultures?

QUOTE FROM "gabbieispretty"- This show is a cheap,Power Rangers rip-off. It is extremely low-budget and the monsters look like they're from the first season of Power Rangers. Matt Mullins looks are the only saving grace. I wish he would get to do something better,though he doesn't seem to be much of an actor. Poor Victoria Jackson being reduced to a show like this. All she gets to do is play a book store owner who has like zero lines and it's ridiculous. The outfits also look like they were ripped off from the first season of Power Rangers. Undemanding little kids will like it, if they've never seen the Power Rangers movie or are huge fans of Power Rangers.

REPLY- ...? Um, its not a rip-off. Power Rangers originates from Super Sentai which is owned by Toei. Kamen Rider is also owned by Toei. Furthermore Kamen Rider predates Super Sentai. The original Kamen Rider was shown in 1971 while Super Sentai premiered in 1975. Please do some research before you accuse anyone of ripping people off. Other then that, I pretty much agree with you. Future Kamen Rider series have better monster designs (Orphenochs are awesome), and better Rider costumes (KIVA!!). He should go to Japan and do a real Tokusatsu series. He has both fighting abilities and looks and it would be neat to see him in a real Tokusatsu series.

Having watched the entire Japanese Kamen Rider Series over the years I appreciate the new American version. Wasn't easy to get my hands on the first episode but it holds true to the Japanese counter part in spirit. I do however wish the had chosen one of the other series nearer and dearer to my own heart, something like Chou Sei Shin Gransazer. I have been a long standing fan of Sentai in all it's forms since USA Network put Dynaman on the air late nights when I was a kid. Now there was a series I would have actually sat through religiously if the had made an American version. I do look forward to sitting through this series with my sons and seeing whether there is really an American audience for these types of programs.

When the show was announced i was very skeptical since i am not a fan of the adaptations. One day i saw on a website that some of the people from Japan that worked on the original Kamen Rider Ryuki are involved with Kamen Rider Dragon Knight. Then i decided to give it a try and i really enjoyed it. I liked how they used some of the riders , the white rider for example got plenty of screen time in the original version she only appeared in a movie and i was really disappointed. Kamen Rider Dragon Knight has a lot actions , plenty of fights that in my opinion are very fun to watch. The actors did their job pretty well and if you like Kamen Rider you should give this show a try.
