   my secret skill: I know the lyrics to all the Shōwa-era Kamen Rider theme songs by heart.

   I haven't even watched any other than Black and RX, but I can sing all of them

     this is my periodic reminder that Kamen Rider Black Sun (2022) is about Japanese Greta Thunberg finding out that if you start a revolutionary worker's party you just get coopted, and the true way is to run a violent guerilla insurrection. this is portrayed as a good thing.

     and yes it's still a show about edgy cockroach superheroes fighting bug anthros. only the anthros are a very blatant metaphor for immigrants and the real villain is the President. by the end of the show it's not a metaphor anymore, they spell it out. also it's a pro-political assassination show. published *after* Abe was killed in the funniest possible way.

     I have no idea how this thing is allowed to exist, and with my childhood cockroach hero to boot. they even made the main character a girl, specifically for me
