Before this video was uploaded, this channel was a little under 2k subscribers. It really has gotten a lot of attention and support in a short amount of time.
I hope they continue to upload more episodes on there official channel. So I don't have to rely on people to upload episodes on unofficial illegal UA-cam channels.
Was Kamen Rider paid by Marvel & DC's legal teams to track down and eliminate the Japanese bootleg versions of their respective IPs? Oops, I forgot...Japan also went in with its own Marvel-approved take on Spidey 2 years after
The first 13 episodes or so of Kamen Rider are particularly surreal, but they become more conventional after that. This was largely because kids weren't enthusiastic about it, and the show REALLY took off after its sort-of reboot with Kamen Rider #2.
Fun little factoid, lead actor Hiroshi Fujioka did his own stunts in and out of the suit for the first 10 or so episodes, making this the only toku show I can think of where the lead actor was also the suit actor.
@@michaelrhett4958 He's probably ly still working on it. Considering each video is around one hour long, he must spend a lot of time and work on it, and he is probably making two or three video at the same time.
I still can't believe I lived to see OG toku shows being officially in the West. Thank you TokuSHOUTtsu and Shout! Factory. Also please, if you can, support your fave shows in any way you can!
Keep in mind that the first time the instrumental Let's Go Rider Kick plays in this show, Hongo is still fully human. He was worthy of the theme even before being rebuilt into Kamen Rider! (Also, "cyborg" is accurate here in context, but "Kaizou-Ningen" can be applied to a biologically-altered human as well. Technically, "Kaizou-" means "altered" or "rebuilt" and is as broad in meaning as those words.)
"Kamen Rider Ichigou Hongo Takeshi is the cyborg, He was remodeled by Shocker, an evil organization bent on ruling the world. Kamen Rider stands against them for the sake of all humanity."
Aw heck yeah, 71 on UA-cam legally . Takes me back to 2013 just getting into the franchise. Glad this is available outside Japan and the us finally for the international friends of justice and humanity.
I don't know how people State-side ever saw these original tokusatsu shows before "adapted" versions for the US. It's a real privilege to see them now as they were and I've been catching this and the original Sentai shows whenever I can. I love the rawness and grittiness of these early shows made on nothing but enthusiasm and a pack of cigarettes. They're fun and just effortlessly cool.
KIKU TV and other public TV channels in areas where there was a huge Japanese population aired Tokusatsu like Kikaider and Kamen Rider V3, along with anime like Yuusha Raideen and Galaxy Express 999 during the 70s.
That was surprisingly well done for it's time! I'm happy to have finally seen the birth of Kamen Rider. I'd love to see more episodes uploaded here soon.
I actually really like the scene where the Shocker troops are circling KR. Most of the time, that kind of edit is used to have a character jump or move really far, and so it was interesting to see them use that technique to just make the Shocker troops move in an unnatural and unnerving way.
Gosh dang I remember years ago going through uploaders and forums just to see one episode of Kamen rider, to now see it in it’s entirety complete legal. Makes this bug eyed mask shed a tear
Its so much better than most episodes of now days kamenrider. But somehow it also looks like an Art Movie made by Art Students for a Film Festival in Cannes.
The best one is still KR Black. Nothing came closer to that. Neo-heisei and reiwa sucks because they love to spamming skills and no human life in stakes
Thank you for delivering this piece of wonderful entertainment in this time of need. Also fellow Kamen Rider fans please support this so we can hopefully get more Kamen Rider seasons brought over to the west.

The first of a badass series that holds near and dear to my heart! Thank u Kamen Rider Ichigo aka hongu takashi. I'm pretty sure this still remains to be the longest running Kamen Rider series to date. That may seem cool but it's a hell of a chore to get through. But it's worth it!
Thank you TokuShoutsu! It's amazing what you are doing now!Finally more people are able to witness the greatness of one of Japans greatest champions! :D
Was disappointed to find I couldn't watch TokuSHOUTsu on the service due to living in the UK, but I'm so happy you guys are uploaded the series to UA-cam for us Brits. Thank you. Will also be checking out Ultraman on here as well as the Gavan and Goranger on the Toei channel.
Thank you! It´s gratifying to see the first episode of the first Kamen Rider available worldwide and legally. I hope that Shout eventually release the series on DVD or Blu-Ray as well - I bought all the Sentals released by Shout, and I think the company made a great job. Greetings from Brazil.
It's also up on Shout Factory TV. Going by Shout Factory's usual UA-cam channel this was probably just a sample to promote the Pluto TV channel but the first season is on shoutfactorytv.com
o pior q mesmo q de certo na band o retorno dos tokus devido a quarentena ate a dublagem parou num vai da tempo de negociar serie inedita antes do interesse cair na terceira reprisada!
My dad was station in Okinawa in 70-72. Loved the tv shows even though I didn’t know Japanese. I was 4-5 years old so I didn’t know English either! The theme song has been in my head ever since. Rider kick!
Remember to show support for this so we can get more Kamen Rider here in the west.

@@davidb265 I'm in the UK as well and I think this gives us hope that there will be more Sentai as well Kamen Rider on DVD
It's crazy that the first two Kamen Rider villains are Spider-Man and Batman
so is kamen rider kuuga first enemy, first showa and first heisei rider, just reiwa is weird in their own way.

@@agungsatria8593 i don't hate the new series. Did i said "hate"?
@@zeroanimation3956 you sounds like
"How many jump cuts do we need?"
"Yes."
It was 1971. They needed to simulate fancy special effects somehow.
1970's Japanese villains always had a different flavor, they're like a strange nightmare.
The same with the heroes. In japan they don't power up to stop bank robbers, they are to bussy fighting aliens, monsters or supernatural entities.
The weirdest has to be the nazi crocodile from JAKQ

Finally, we can WATCH

Doct Joe And then he broke his leg which is why Hayato showed up in the first place in-series
@@andresiathechannel7988 We got a Second Season as Compensation for Ichigo's Injury.
Andresia: The Channel If he didn’t break his leg, would we still have the concept of secondary Riders today? Or Henshin poses?
@@what0080 I always wondered about that as well.
@Gilson Marcondes Ladeira That was Hiroshi Miyauchi, or Kamen Rider V3, not Hiroshi Fujioka.
Batman? Virus? Man, Kamen Rider truly was ahead of it's time.
And so, it begins! _Tou!_ Fun Fact: Episode 2 has Ichigo fight a type of Bat Man...
Yeah and he throws him off the roof, it's awesome
24:21 "...Bat Man spreads his terrifying virus among people" Welp... WE NEED KAMEN RIDER
Great.Now you here too.
Kamen rider Ichigo predicted Covid?!?!
Dude....really everwhere I go I always find you, I can't even watch obsure Japanese t.v from decades ago without running into you
"The monstrous Bat Man spreads his terrifying virus among the people." Hm...
We’ve been living in a Kamen Rider multiverse spin off this whole time
@@mrjenybean ONORE ZIOOOOOOOO!!!
Always remember:
"Won't you believe in him? Even if there is no God or Buddha... there is Kamen Rider."
best words!
That manga was freaking awesome
Jesus Fruit
And God Tendou
"WHAT IS YOUR MISSION AND ID?"
"Justice. Kamen Rider #2."
(Any Rider who can't answer this way, this simply, isn't a Rider.)
Buddha? That means Thai right?
How it all began. And how it will begin again. They will rise as many times as needed to save the world.
Kamen Riders are forever.
Is that paraphrased from Kamen rider black RX’s speech to crisis emperor before their final battle
Until oma zio existed

I've gotten so used to the gimmicks and crazy cinematics of the Heisei era. This is sure to be an interesting change in pace.

You Could Watch It On kissasian.sh
i agree with u..
Totally worth the wait. That said, I'm still hoping for an eventual physical release more than anything else.
Christmas came very early this year.

No, no this is not better than masterpieces such as W, OOO, Fourze, Gaim, Drive, Ex-Aid, Build, or Zero-One
The best one is still KR Black. Nothing came closer to that. Neo-heisei and reiwa sucks because they love to spamming skills and no human life in stakes
Build is a damn masterpiece
Who's here after seeing Shin Kamen Rider?
Now this is way better than Power Rangers.

Man I love my childhood. Thank you Shout Factory. For doing the unexpected. Bringing Kamen rider to America that isn't just clips and would get copyrights.
Now I just wish they had made a crossover of Kamen Rider and Japanese Spider-Man
they did, v3 and toei spiderman
It was only a photoshoot for a magazine, not an actual episode.
At least there's the Miyauchi guest appaerances on Spiderman.
2020: *WW3, Australia on fire and Corona*

MORE EPISODE !!!!!

The first of a badass series that holds near and dear to my heart! Thank u Kamen Rider Ichigo aka hongu takashi. I'm pretty sure this still remains to be the longest running Kamen Rider series to date. That may seem cool but it's a hell of a chore to get through. But it's worth it!
Best kamen rider episodes are when they're fighting covid monsters, or monsters spreading viruses
The prophecy is being fulfilled.
20:32 the guy on the right is Diamond Jack from JAKQ

Wow, I can't believe that the battle choreography when KR fight that Spider-Monster were remade exactly into the new Shin Kamen Rider!
Thank you very much!
"Raidaa... HENSHIN! -Toh!!"

It's good to hear the Kamen rider anthem again
so very nostalgic. thanks a lot for uploading this movie
Thank you for uploading the full episode. Hopefully we see more on here
Thank you. It reminds me of my childhood
I love the parallels of scenes in Shin Kamen Rider with the original.
So what goal do we need to help you reach to unlock the rest of the OG series?
Download Tubi and all 98 episodes are at your finger tips!
It's also on VRV. UA-cam generally plays better for me than most streaming services, and so having it on youtube as well is just awesome.
