    Brandon jokes about the dubious legal arguments, but 4Kids Entertainment did somthing similar with Chaotic (a TCG that spawned a TV series and video game). 4Kids signed licensing deals to market the product in the US, and even played a part in some of the development. 4Kids apparently decided that this meant they owned the entire property. While the real owners fought this in court, legal action went on for seven years (ending with 4Kids *second* bankruptcy), during which time no one was allowed to release new Chaotic products which killed the IP anyway.

    As someone more familiar with Kamen Rider, allow me to surprise you with a few things. First and foremost, this movie has something that 5 Riders vs King Dark didn't, an actual final battle with the villain. Yeah the knock off thought to give the movie a real ending. Furthermore the finale to Kamen Rider X also involved a giant King Dark fight....and dare I say the effects in this Hanuman movie are better than in the actual episode. I'm not even kidding.

    2:39 unless you're brazilian, then you're likely VERY familiar with Kamen Rider
    here is the ever popular reminder that we actually got japanese toku on tv here in brazil, Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Metal Heroes...
    All until Saban came along and got international rights for Super Sentai, killing that franchise over here... then Kamen Rider... killing THAT franchise over here (right before the final episode of black aired no less).
    And then the main channel that aired them (and did the dubbing and stuff) sadly going under.
    AND THEN, to rub salt on the wound, years later when a bunch of brazilians tried to make a Toku-Sentai celebration game, Saban came along and sued them all to hell, forcing them to put "Inspired by Saban's power rangers" on the title among other bullying of the indie devs... even though its REALLY fucking obvious to anyone who even looks at the game (chroma squad) that its based on Super Sentai and Toku in its original form overall (the fucking trailer for the game is narrated in japanese, for fucks sake, and its theme song is also in japanese).
    Anyways, FUCK SABAN and everything that worthless bastard was involved in when it comes to Toku.

    As a Thai, I'll explain that in 6:18 is actually the hell in Thai's Buddhist beliefs. They have something that call "The 5 Precepts" which tell the 5 sins that you shouldn't commit like one must not take the other's life, one must not steal, one must not lie, one must not have the adultery and one must not consume the intoxications. If you commit one of these sins, you'll be sent into hell with 5 different torturing for each sins that you have commit. For example, If you having the adultery, then you'll be sent to climb a spike tree naked, if you drinking an alcohol or taking drugs, you'll get fried alive in a really big pan that we see in the video. This is why this very specific scene always scared me as a kid, back in the time I still believe that hell exists LOL.

    7:30 Kamen Rider has given us some great classic villains:
    -The Shocker organization: Magical/superscience neo-nazis hellbent on the conquest of earth, so big that they ALWAYS come back regardless of the efforts of the Riders.
    -N.Daguva Zeba: the mighty king of a monster race who thrives with the death of the innocent who fell in the ultimate battle but not without taking the soul of the hero with him making him doubt his ideals even after achieving peace.
    -Evolt: an alien lifeform who wants to become the ultimate being, using the power of black holes to eat people and planets to become stronger, who if it werent for the hero's gambit, he could have succeeded in eating the entire planet.

    One of the main evil characters is literally one half man an one half female split down the middle and the underlings refer to them as "Yes Sir,Ma'am."
    The main good guy's robot is piloted by this tiny little hovercraft type vehicle that lands at the very top of its head and is encased in nothing but glass. An obvious weak spot, but nobody ever attacks it. And it's special attack is a "rocket punch" which shoots its own fists off at enemies and if memory serves, they explode. So...yeah.
    It doesn't stop there. A little later in the series, the main good guy gets a female side kick who also gets a giant robot named Aphrodite A. Instead of her robot shooting her fists, it literally shoots breast rockets....

      Very important note about this genre of superheroes: in style, it's much closer to professional wrestling or theater than a realistic fight. Looking cool and being dramatic is more important than being efficient. Though to your point, when the Kamen Rider shows of the 2000s started relying on gadgets and external bits to transform, you'd see transformations get interrupted by the villain snatching away their gizmo first. So, they've thought about that.
