[A cat wanders into the base and somehow gets into the vents, the 1-4-1 have been trying to catch it but it keep getting away, finally they resort to sending someone into the vents. Soap is that someone.]
Ghost:
Soap, go into the vent and get him.
Soap:
What!? Have ye gone waxy in yer beester? I canna fit in the wee vent, ye croquet-playin’ mint-muncher!
Ghost, fed up::
Grease yourself up and go in, you ...guff-speaking work-slacker.
Soap: [impressed]
Ooh. Good comeback. sir!
[Cut to Soap bursting into R/n’s empty diner.]
Soap:
Miss. L/n have ye got any grease?
[R/n looks up from the counter.]
R/n:
Yes, yes we do.
[Soap suddenly rips his shirt apart of showing off his chiseled abs.]
Soap:
THEN GREASE ME UP WOMAN!
[R/n feels heat creeping up her neck as she looks at Soap’s body with a poker face]
R/n: Okie-dokie!
{Let’s just say Ghost was the one who got jealous this time, as he got to hear all about how his dear R/n had rubbed grease all over Soap’s abs.]
Soap, boasting to Gaz: I tell ya Gaz, Her hands felt like heaven, I aven’t had a back rub that good in ages!
[cut to Ghost brooding in a corner while stroking the vent cat like a super villain.]
Hello!! I followed you for your absolutely amazing Twisted Wonderland comics (thank you for making them, by the way-) but I saw you posting about something called Ride Kamens? I haven’t heard of it before, what’s it about? Or if that’s a bit much to ask, where could I find more info about it? It seems right up my alley 👀
Thank you!
thank you! :> :> :> (this is also for the other anon who asked about where to find it, I am honored to be infecting the world spreading interest in this silly game)
Ride Kamens is still doing prerelease marketing and isn't out yet; it's set for "early summer 2024", so a bit yet to go! similar to Twst, it's a mobile game about anime boys loosely based on an existing franchise (Kamen Rider), although it seems like it's going to be more standalone/won't require familiarity with Rider going in.
the (very) basic premise is that your player character has just taken over their late father's role as a secret agent, supporting the city's superheroes by running a secret base disguised as a cafe (plus you have a personal butler for some reason) (the reason is because it's amazing). you also have to help the heroes regain their lost memories, and it looks like it'll have a bit of a route/choice aspect there (not romance, just different endings to the character episodes depending on what you do). the details are kinda hard to tell at this point but the characters seem like a really fun bunch; there's definitely big "idiots with emotional problems" energy which I am extremely into.
all the official info is in Japanese only at the moment, but here's the website and the ride_kamens twitter! (though the twitter is sort of overtaken by posts about the AnimeJapan exhibit right now, whoops.) and I believe some people are already planning on doing translations for it too? lots to look forward to! :D
The thing is that if tendou was transfem she wouldn't even take hormones she would point at the sky and go "grandmother said... The man who walks the path of heaven is beyond gender" and then a power up would fall to the ground that would make kabuto pinker and nothing else
Wyd when your co-worker is insane but your boss keeps telling you to film him for views?! Think about how your resumé is non-existent and you need to pay rent
Goodbye to Yuya Takahashi as Gavv head writer dreams after I lovingly looked through Aruto and Ace screencaps the previous night, hello to Junko Komura who will make me bawl my eyes out in the final stretch even if I don't tune in for the whole show 💖
Word on the wind is that Gavv turned on his race because his mum got turned into a snack (...cannibalism??), which means he's got the Komura familial issues, potentially Stacey adjacent style? Will there be longing and heartache underneath that cheer, maybe a hallucination or two showing a glimpse of the tender, perhaps complicated relationship now lost between son and mother? I'm ready to have my heart broken :D (I swear I do want Gavv boy to be happy - but hurt and comfort can co-exist xD)
The villain line-up looks a little basic (then again it's kinda on brand for Komura) but the lady with the pink highlights and purple contacts is appealing to my soft spot for well-dressed villainesses 👌
i dont like being a hater about this bc its a case of me genuinely not being in the strike zone for it but every allusion/reference/homage to kamen rider is way cooler then the actual source material
As I’ve mentioned before, there’s a semi-niche Kamen Rider toyline called Card Warrior Kamen Rider that gives pre-existing Riders new forms. For example, here are the boxes for V3 Flaresalamander and Agito Stagtornador:
But did you know Kamen Rider Kaixa also got a Card Warrior form? Indeed, here’s the box and figure for Kaixa Chaosdile!
Information regarding Card Warrior as a whole is remarkably difficult to come by, so I’m not sure how exactly this form is acquired or if it makes Kaixa any more powerful or anything, but it’s certainly a form that exists.
