Kamen Rider Den-O loves the kids

Hey everyone!  We're back from our Osaka trip!  We had a great time and took a TON of pictures, so expect some lengthy photo-filled posts soon.  But first: we met Kamen Rider!

Let me explain. Yesterday Kamen Rider Den-O was at the mall by my school for a promotional event because there's a new Kamen Rider movie out.  For those of you not in the know, Kamen Rider is a tokasatsu (Japanese superhero action - think Power Rangers) TV series about a guy who wears an insect-themed suit, drives a motorcycle, and fights monsters.  Since it started its run in 1971, there's been roughly 20 different Kamen Riders, each with their own series.  The one at the mall was Den-O, a recent Kamen Rider who not only has a motorcycle but a time-traveling train.  Basically the coolest guy.

He played a game with the kids involving a big puffy dice.  He was bad at it on purpose so the kids could win prizes.

Even a baby beat him!  Seriously, Den-O?!

WHO WANTS SOME?!

At the end, the kids got to pose with Den-O.  The kid in red was INTENSE.

This kid on the other hand is barely trying.  I know he's a four-year-old, but he looks like a Kim Jong Il statue.

I even took a video of the action.  Check out how crazy the kids go for Den-O!



That's all for now. Like I said, there will be Osaka posts soon so keep checking the blog! See you soooon!
