    hero is emu, computer programmer who creates the bugsters to help with...games I guess??? They go nuts so he designs the gashats to fight them

    They call him father

    The last time I had such a strong visceral reaction against a suit, we got Fourze.

    So I'm actually pretty hyped.

    The more I see of ExAid the more I'm getting surprisingly excited, holy crap.

    Here's some toy-catalog scans, translations scored courtesy of Heroshock.

    Ex-Aid transforms using the Gamer Driver and his series' transformation-trinkets, the Gashat (or Gasshat), game cartridges with handles. Inserting one (Mighty Action in Ex-Aid's case) into the Driver will give access to the chibi-esque Lv1 form which is somewhat unclear as to it's purpose other then an incomplete form. Lv2 is the actual fighting form for Ex-Aid and other users of the Gamer Driver. The Driver's capable of slotting a second Gashat however, allowing for something that seems akin to Drive's Tire-Changes or Gaim's Arms-swaps in which armor-pieces are fitted over the Rider. The pieces can come together to form (with one exception) a robot though if that's how they appear when summoned or it's just a way for the armor to double as the show's gadget-bots is unknown. Ex-Aid's Lv3 Gashat is called Gekitotsu Robots.

    As seen in posts above this one, we're getting multiple Riders early on in the show. The first two shown under Ex-Aid are Brave (RPG games) and Snipe (shooter games). Below them is Racer (whose gaming-theme should be obvious), a Rider who seems to either be an artificial being like Drive's Chase or someone who has an unfortunate Lv2 form. The final Rider is known as Genm, someone who looks to be Ex-Aid's direct rival or evil/dark counterpart as he not only shares a similar head-piece but he uses the Proto Mighty Action Gashat to transform. Curiously, he's the exception when it comes to the Lv3 Armor as it comes together as a bicycle rather then a robot like the others. Also, as you can tell, the first four Riders share a Gashat for a Lv4 form, Drago Knight Hunter. It's unknown if this is a single Gashat or if there's multiple copies.

    1Pdos2J.jpg

    The five Riders will use personal weapons all under the same brand name called Gashacons. These seem to all accept a Gashat for final attacks. Ex-Aid's the Gashacon Breaker, a mallet (perhaps based on Whack-A-Mole and related arcade games) that can extend a blade.

    9zgMQOI.jpg

    Brave's Gashacon is the Gashacon Sword, capable of switching between fire and ice attacks and possibly being able to fling them Legend-Of-Zelda style. Snipe's is the Gashacon Magnum, a handgun that can extend into a rifle. Racer's the Gashacon Sparrow, a bow that can become a scythe (or possibly scythes).

    Finally, Genm's is the Gashapon Bugvisor. It's not exactly clear but it appears to be a twin-barrel blaster/chainsaw.

    Wow was i not far off with the Sonic the Hedgehog comparison

    They are going for a very specific era of 90's video game aesthetic

    I love how colorful everything is. Really jumps out at you

    And as a Gaim lover, multi rider is the way to go

    But please give us more/more prominent female riders

    I mean geez

    Heroshock translated a summary attached to the toy catalog which seems to validate the story that WLV posted at the top of the page.
    « 2016. Unknown monsters called « Bugster » start invading our world by infecting humans through computer game viruses. Em, computer genius and great video game player creates the Gamer Driver and the Gashat to become Kamen Rider Ex-Aid and counter the threat. But is Em really not aware of the Bugster’s creation ? Why are they calling him « Father » ? Let the games begin ! »

    Eh, I'll have to just give the show a watch, but I'm not a big fan of those designs

    They should have got rid of that dumb belt, and instead of having a gamepad on their chest, make THAT the belt instead, and do something like Faiz where they pull the gamepad off, put in a button combo, snap the pad back onto the belt and hit start to do cool shit

    Also I don't like when helmets are supposed to look like they have hair

    I'm fairly new to the whole kamen rider thing but to me incredibly stupid belts are part of the appeal

    You're not even wrong.
    The bad guys tricked them into going on a cruise to an evil island by telling them it was filled with jewelry. Which they are apparently just going to fucking steal, because they are talking about bringing bags to scoop the gems into. Then they launched into a song about how much they fucking love jewelry. The best part is where they have like two lines wondering if jewels are really so important, compared to friends or romance. But then one points out that you give rings when you get married and stuff like that, which is more than enough to convince all of them that gems are fucking great and lets sing about our birthstones and what they mean about us.

    Also civilian non-school uniform Jupiter is wearing a shirt with Cher's face on it and it's causing me to lose my mind.

    Edit: Actually, maybe that says Grace? Grace...Jones maybe?

    Also on display are the horrible wigs and the 'you need to immediately know this is a sailor because he has no lines' costume there.

    Alright, the Dino Supercharge DVDs are finally being released! I do want to wait until they're all out though, which will probably be in a few months.

    Do we know when we can expect more Ninja Steel news?

    speaking of PR, I keep thinking about how hard it would be to adapt Zyuohger, because it feels like the characters are constantly fighting out of their uniforms

    this is my first sentai, though, so I don't know if it's actually out of the ordinary or not

    It appears to have a green version of those Power Coins

    And she's green

    So Rita Repulsa is now the Green Ranger? What are they doing with this movie

    That's been the running theory basically since Rita's outfit was first shown. It's pretty clearly a torn apart and damaged battle armour outfit, and looks more or less like the ranger outfits themselves just green with gold highlights instead, and hey guess what gold highlights is the green ranger's thing.

    I have a podcast about Digimon called the Digital Moncast, on Audio Entropy.

    I think it's gonna turn out that Rita was the green Ranger back in the day, but rebelled or something. End of the movie is the Rangers recovering the green coin from her staff, or perhaps her getting away and removing it on her own like "time for me to give this to someone...."

    Zyuohger's new ending song is great. I just wish it had the bird's human form dancing too.

    Well now I have to learn new lyrics and dance moves (since I had already learnt the previous dance and song)
