Dear Vector Prime, would you be able to tell us if the Transformers encountered any other transforming superheroes, such as Takeshi Hongo, better known as Kamen Rider #1, or one of his several successors over the decades?

Dear Metamorphin’ Master,

Yes, indeed. On one occasion, the Ark crash-landed in the foothills of Mt Fuji. The Decepticons, awakening early as usual, beat a hasty retreat before Battle Convoy and his Autobots could awaken, coming into contact with the local branch of a human terrorist organisation. Megatron made a deal with their leader, the control-obsessed Doctor Arkeville, who provided upgrades to the Decepticon soldiers in exchange for live test subjects for his brainwashing experiments. Curious about the possibilities of electronic mind control, Megatron offered a lowly support Cyberdroid, MCD-73.

Arkeville married Cybertronian technology with his own occult sciences, upgrading MCD-73 into a grasshopper-type warrior he dubbed “Shothole”. He then set about granting upgrades to the Decepticons themselves: Exhaust gained the ability to exude blood-tinged venomous smoke, Loudpedal’s sonic capabilities were turned into a high-sensitivity sonar array, and Detritus’ control over junk was augmented into the power to create fine webs of rust. Megatron’s own titanic strength was augmented by a black coating capable of superheating his body. While Megatron led the Decepticons off to menace the still-weary Autobots, Arkeville took Shothole for himself, planning to use him to attack a nearby racetrack. There, they were confronted by a pair of Transformation Cyborgs who had defected from Arkeville’s organisation, Takeshi Hongo and Hayato Ichimonji. The pair took on their own insectoid forms and did battle with both Shothole and the evil doctor, who mutated himself into the horrific Hypnocobra. While Ichimonji was able to handily hold back the snake, Hongo had a much tougher time with the larger Shothole, until his advanced senses picked up a sense of restraint from his attacks; Shothole didn’t want to fight. Hongo and Ichimonji used their Rider Power Purification move to heal Shothole of the brainwashing procedure, allowing him to act on his own free will and defeat Hypnocobra with his Hole Shotkick.

The trio then rushed to the location of the Ark, where the hellish Decepticon armada was advancing on the hopelessly outmatched Autobots. Convoy noticed the sun glinting off the three oncoming machines, and rallied his forces, their just hearts far stronger than the evil power of the Decepticons. Megatron himself was forced to retreat after Shothole, Hongo and Ichimonji defeated him with their Two-World Rider Kick attack. Convoy thanked Shothole for his help and invited him to join the Autobots, but Shothole declined, feeling that he could never truly escape his Decepticon nature.

Shothole would continue to fight alongside Hongo and Ichimonji even as their band of cyborg heroes grew, and many a time would the Legendary 8 Riders assist the Autobots in their own battle for freedom. I am personally very fond of this story; Shothole’s ability to overcome the circumstances of his creation is proof of our own ability as Cybertronians to get past the sins of our forebears. If only my fallen brother had the capability to see this…

He’ll make you sound like a robot if you don’t watch it. Titan Master Enemy! Original idea from @onyxstrike on a Transformers Discord of mine. Photo from Seibertron, digibashing done by me. I may expand on this concept a bit more!

Very specific question to ask, but what media player/s do you use to watch Tokusatsu? I've been using MX Player and VLC (fiddling with the aspect ratio on the latter for some shows) and I can't really seem to get rid of these distracting black bars on the sides without making the footage all stretched out. Any guides too would be appreciated, if you're able to supply any!

i use VLC too but i've never really had this issue? i don't fiddle with the settings too much, im just on the default aspect ratio and donbrothers looks like this for me

i will say for older shows that have a more boxlike aspect ratio, like abaranger, i don't think you can get around those borders without stretching out the video bc it was made for a certain screen size. but im not sure why something shot for widescreen like donbrothers looks like that for you, unfortunately. does anyone else know a fix for this?

@onyxstrike replied to your post:

Probably should've mentioned in the ask that I'm using the app versions of these media players. I'm assuming you use desktop versions which probably manage aspect ratio stuff better?

yeah i've only ever used it on desktop and haven't had any issues, zero experience using the app

Apparently the press release for the new Ex-Aid special labels this as "Kamen Rider Ex-Aid with Zero-One", and I am NOT prepared to see Genm and Thouser in the same shot together.

Your Toei Fake Suit Parts post made me realize that it was an absolute missed opportunity for there to be a Zi-O .5 episode taking the piss out of those.

i don’t even remember which post that is but toei should’ve made a million zi-o .5 episodes so yes
