Comments from Hideaki Anno will arrive for each episode of this project. For the first episode, "The Spider Man",
The world of masks has continued for more than 50 years. This is the story of how it all began. The tempo of the editing that spins the action of the deadly action and the fun of the omission of setups. The technique and sense, all of them were epoch-making. During this broadcast, from the first appearance of the Rider to the 35 seconds of battle action while the M-9A editing music played, I was numbed and captivated by the depiction of the Cyclone's transformation."

The comments from the audience show how much they cherish the work of "Masked Rider".

The "Shin Masked Rider" movie is scheduled to premiere on February 7, so this is a great opportunity to get excited for the March release of "Shin Masked Rider".
