Saban Brands has registered registered in the US Patent and Trademark something called, “Power Rider”. To those who remembered, Saban Brands once claimed that they got the footage of the Kamen Rider Decade and Shinkenger crossover. Could this be a new Kamen Rider adaption or something else?
And to those who are familiar, in case this is a Kamen Rider adaptation, this would be Saban's second attempt with the franchise. The first attempt was simply called, Masked Rider which utilized footage from Kamen Rider BLACK RX and some clips from Kamen Rider ZO. Years later, Adness adapted Kamen Rider Ryuki in a show called, Kamen Rider Dragon Knight which failed in the US yet was successful outside the American territory, especially in Japan. Also, Steve Wang, the director of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight has interest in adapting Kamen Rider 555 or Kabuto.

With the release of next month's issues of Hyper Hobby and TOEI Hero Max magazines, more Kamen Rider Fourze information was revealed. This basically confirms the existence of “Kamen Rider urban legend” that was rumored before.
Kamen Rider Fourze’s base form is called “Base States”, which is accessed when Gentaro uses the space energy inside the Astro Switches. It’s stats are as followed:
- Height: 200cm
- Weight: 95kg
- Punch strength: 2.1t
- Kick strength: 6.3t
- Jump power: 20m in one jump
- Speed: 100m in 6.2s
- Special Attack: Rocket Drill Kick (Stratosphere Kick): 15t
Kamen Rider Fourze’s exclusive bike is the Machine Masshigler. Although, that’s just what Gentaro named it. It’s official name is “ORB-40F”It uses hydrogen as fuel and doesn’t release any CO2. The Astro Switches are the sources of Fourze’s powers. These switches hold an unknown energy called “Cosmic Energy”.
- Fourze’s Module 1, the Rocket Module:
A rocket is equipped on his right arm. By enabling the Exhaust Thruster, Fourze can add up another 4 t to his punches. - Fourze’s Module 2, the Launcher Module:
He can shoot 5 missiles from his right leg. - Fourze’s Module 3, the Drill Module:
It’s equipped on his left leg. It’s spins around 200 rpm. - Fourze’s Module 4, the Radar Module:
By using this module, Fourze can give his Launcher Module homing missiles. He’s also able to reflect certain waves. - Fourze’s Module 5, the Magic Hand Module:
The Magic Hand is equipped on his right hand, which gives him an extra 10 m reach. The end of the Magic Hand is called the “End Effect Pliers” which can lift up any object up to 6 t.
The Zodiarts use switches that are very different from Fourze’s. These are called “Zodiart Switches”. A human can use this to turn into a Zodiart. The Scorpion Zodiart is actually one of the stronger monsters, who suddenly shows up in Amanogawa High School.
In episode 1 and 2, someone will use the Orion Switch to turn into the Orion Zodiart. He uses a giant club called Lemnos and a shield called Chios, named after two Greek islands.
Kengo Utahoshi received the Fourze Driver along with 40 Astro Switches from his dying father. He wishes to fight against the Zodiarts with the Fourze Driver, but due to his weak body he’s unable to fight. Kengo eventually gives Gentaro Kisaragi the belt when they meet. The heroine Yuki Joujima is actually Gentaro’s childhood friend who’s Kengo’s classmate. She calls herself a “space nerd” and Japan’s happiest schoolgirl.

A rumor has been spreading Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger's Ryota Ozawa (小澤 亮太) and Mao Ichimichi (市道 真央) are now currently dating. An image of them kissing each other have been posted on a gossip blog.
It has been reported before during Mao Ichimichi's first photobook and DVD interview that she likes 2D (or animated) men more than real men. And both guys seems to get closer during the filming of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.
Will we ever see the next Fumiya and Remi Hoshikawa of Fiveman, or Ryu Tendou and Kaoru Rokumeikan of Jetman who are co-stars of the same Sentai series and ended up with each other?
Updated, a translation courtesy of Windmaster Hiroaki via Facebook:
"A picture of Ichimichi Mao & Ozawa Ryota on a date ...holding hands together somewhere in some city was taken. They look lovey dovey together & from the looks of it, they look rather good together (from the writer's perspective)!! holding hands tight & sticking close to each other, you can see what a pair of love birds they're!!
The young couple look very cute together through the whole process (walk, shopping, whatever they're doing back there). But that's not all, instead just being lovey dovey, one thing i found very shocking personally, is the moment where they shared a passionate kiss when they were about to part... now with both Mao & Ryota both being in the spotlight, such a brazen display of their love is really shocking indeed!!
Ichimichi Mao & Ozawa Ryota seems to have became intimate due to acting together, but having already progressed to such a stage is something really unexpected & shocking!!
Although I'll pay attention to their activities nonetheless from here on out, the progress of their is really some private thing I'd be interested about!!"

After the success of her second single, AKB48's Tomomi Itano recently revealed in her official blog that she was diagnosed with “vocal cord nodules”, a condition that can be a big hindrance to singers.
She wrote, “This whole month I was thinking my voice was hoarse…it seems that I have vocal cord nodules.” She added, “I am worried that it won’t heal that quickly. For now, I would like some rest.”
Vocal cord nodules are condition where the two vocal cords comes in contact and creates friction, thus making one’s voice hoarse and hinders the ability to sing in higher pitches. It develop mostly in females in adults, and both sexes in children.
Treatment for this involves vocal training, speech therapy, and, occasionally, vocal rest. In rare cases, surgery may be required.
