Welcome to the second edition to a quite old general made about, oh say 4-5 years ago. The rules of this general is very simple: You talk about anything relating to the Japanese genera Tokusatsu which includes the following series, but isn’t necessarily limited to the following:

Godzilla
Kamen Rider
Super Sentai
Metal Heroes
Ultra Man
Gamera
Giant Robo
Toei's Spider-Man / Spy Darma

Adaptations, parodies or Tokusatsu films simply made outside of japan are fine such as, but again not necessarily limited to:

Power Rangers
Masked Rider and Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight
Mystic Knights
Beetleborgs
VR Troopers
Inframan
Mighty Moshin' Emo Rangers

I used to be pretty deep into the Kamen Rider series especially the heisei era. My favorite series is definitely Agito. At first it starts as a mystery series but later divulges into Kamen Rider vs evil Jesus at the very end.

As for my personal favorite Rider, it would be Kamen Rider Faiz.

The series itself is really dark and the ending was incredibly rushed due to low popularity, but the rider himself imo has one of the best rider kicks ever.
