Feature Shows Extravaganza

The end of the year is approaching.

Unknowingly, Kamen Rider Kuuga has reached episode 45, and the unconfirmed life form No. 46 Unicorn has appeared.

The one-horned fairy is very strong, and he suppressed Kuuga almost the whole time and beat him violently.

In the end, Wu Dai lost to the One-horned Fairy and was beaten half to death and was admitted to the hospital again. Fortunately, Kaoru Ichijo, the strongest second rider in Heisei, destroyed the Murder Game Counting Abacus with his gun, causing internal strife between the Unicorn and No. 47...

As I said before, Kuuga has a lot of details.

The Gurungi clan is naturally bloodthirsty, and the killing game is a way for them to improve their status. The abacus used for counting was broken, and the previous killing results of the Horned Fairy were naturally invalidated.

That's why there was internal strife!

As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins! Unconfirmed life forms No. 46 and No. 47 killed each other. The police, who had just developed a new type of bullet, eliminated No. 47 in one fell swoop.

No. 46, however, was beaten to a pulp, and the amazing all-powerful form transformed from the fifth generation took the head.

The further development of the plot is the death of No. 0 and Rose Girl, and Kuuga is officially over.

In episode 45, the plot of No. 46 and No. 47 fighting each other came to an abrupt end. Although he has golden streaks, dark skin, and red eyes, his ridiculously handsome Amazing Almighty form won't appear until next week.

But the toys are already produced!

It's a pity that the surprising all-powerful form appeared too late. Although he is handsome, he is still not as good as Ultimate Red Eyes.

The key is……

After other forms debut, they can be famous for a period of time. And less than two episodes after Amazing Almighty debuted, the ultimate red eye is here!

This treatment is so miserable!

After the airing of episode 45, Kuga TV has 4 episodes left. Considering that the Kuuga movie version was currently in production, Meng Lang suggested that Bai Cang add an extra special episode to serve as a trailer for the movie version.

At the same time, Dragon Riders can also be cast!

The relevant original plans, including the first version of the script, have been drafted by Bai Cang. After the casting preview was over, it was just in time to finish Kuuga.

But Bai Cang has a doubt.

President, if I create a group of 'pseudo-righteous' selfish knights, will it destroy the children's longing for 'heroes'?

Will not!

Meng Lang said with a smile: As long as the protagonist is kind and upright, no matter how ugly the supporting characters and villains are, it won't have any impact.

What's more...

The world is not simply black and white, but also gray, and Kamen Rider is not just pure good and evil! Justice or not depends on whether you can survive the brutal battle.

You can't survive without fighting

Shirakura! We can't hide it from the children just because the reality is cruel. After all, the fire can't be suppressed. Sooner or later, they will understand that even Kamen Riders are divided into good and evil...

Knight ≠ justice!

There is no setting statement. As a Kamen Rider, you must save people and save the world. After all, the power of the knight belongs to the transformer. No matter how the transformer uses it, it is his freedom.

The same goes for Ultraman next door.

During the Showa and early Heisei years, Tsuburaya's thoughts were imprisoned by the audience. I always feel that Ultraman = justice, so I don't dare to blatantly use Ultraman as a villain.

Occasionally, I'll play a side ball and make some Ace Killer, Evil Tiga, Dark Zaki, and Kaos clone. Although he looks exactly like Ultraman, Ultraman is not added to his name.

Until Beria was born!

If Meng Lang remembers correctly, Beria should be the first villain to be named Ultraman. His full name is Ultraman Beria.

Lao Bei's popularity is also related to his special status and origin.

It was precisely because of Lao Bei's success that Tsuburaya tasted the sweetness. So I created another Tregear, and gradually moved towards the wonderful path of the enemy and the enemy share the same origin...

In a sense, the setting of Dragon Knight opens up a new path and establishes the development route of knights in the next ten years. It is definitely a landmark work.

The most amazing thing is!

Ryuki has also influenced a series of anime works including fate and Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

These works have one thing in common, and that is Battle Royale!

Dragon Knight is not the first battle royale work, but it is the first work to integrate the battle royale mode into a tokusatsu drama and carry it forward.

Twenty years ago, the popularity of the battle royale genre in Neon was much greater than that of PUBG, which suddenly became popular twenty years later. Dragon Rider was born during this period, and its unique setting influenced many people.

Including Mushroom and Laoxu!

Take a closer look at the story of Dragon Rider...

Shirou Kanzaki distributes card boxes, allowing those who desire to realize their wishes to enter the mirror world for a Knight Chicken Dinner. Those who survive in the end can realize their wishes!

Is this concept very similar to Fate's Holy Grail War?

If the selected person wants to transform into a Kamen Rider, he must make a contract with a monster from the mirror world. Once the contract is established, they must hunt other people or beasts to feed the contracted beasts.

What if you don’t feed?

Then you will be eaten by the contract beast!

In Puella Magi Madoka Magica, miracles and magic come with a price, and magical girls are actually a high-risk profession.

In Kamen Rider Ryuki, the knight's power also comes at a price. The Kamen Rider that children long for is also a high-risk profession!

To sum up the plot of Dragon Knight in one sentence: a group of knights jumped into the mirror world to eat chicken in order to realize their wishes. After going through a lot of hard work to reach the finals, they discovered that the game GM Kanzaki-san was looking at you with a blue fire Gatling... …

Fake! all fake!

Just like the scene described by the idiom Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water, the so-called mirror world and the so-called wish fulfillment are just a ceremony planned by Kanzaki-san to extend the life of his sister!

From beginning to end, he never thought about fulfilling the contract.

Of course, everyone can guess the ending.

It was nothing more than the younger sister trying to stop the fight, causing the older brother to lose everything. In the end, the older brother sighed, letting everything go back to where it started.

In fact, there are several versions of the ending!

The TV version of Dragon Knight has not yet finished airing, but Toei has already filmed the theatrical version. And this theatrical version actually includes the TV ending.

Toei's saucy operation stems from the various endings they filmed in advance. The audience can vote to choose which solution will be used for the TV ending!

Generally speaking, everyone defaults to TV endings as true endings and other endings as false endings.

Meng Lang also wanted to learn this kind of operation.

He told Bai Cang to prepare more plans for the ending.

When the time comes, the entire film will be filmed and edited into a special episode for broadcast, allowing the audience to vote to decide which solution will be adopted for the TV ending.

The adopted ending was cut to the final episode for broadcast. The ending that was not adopted was cut into the DVD collection.

I have to say, this operation is really cool!

If it weren't for the lack of time, Meng Lang would have really wanted Bai Cang to shoot a No. 0 to win, and the whole human race would become Gurungi. When the time comes, release it and let the audience choose one of the two.

He is very curious...

Does anyone really want to be a Gurungi?
