Team TokuNet is back with a review of 2015-2016's Kamen Rider Ghost.
Kamen Rider Ghost started off the season in a very unique way by having the main hero, Tenkuji Takeru, die in the very first episode. But does this set up an equally unique season of Kamen Rider or did Takeru die (multiple times) in vain? The podcast crew discusses his journey towards revival and whether or not the season actually benefited from his sacrifice. We also talk about why Cubi was the best Gamma of them all.

Editor-in-Chief Paula Gaetos chats with artist Kyle Carrozza, creator of the Cartoon Network animated series, Mighty Magiswords.
Recorded: August 1, 2016
Kyle Carrozza was the Tokusatsu Network's inaugural Artist Feature and we were very happy to be able to chat with him about his latest work on Cartoon Network, Mighty Magiswords. Mighty Magiswords is set to premiere on September 29th at 6:30pm. The show centers around the adventuring siblings, Prohyas and Vambre, and their trusted, fun, and, often times, ridiculous Magiswords.
The show builds on the original 15-second series that launched the previous year on the interactive CN Anything app.
Concurrent with the upcoming TV series production, almost 400 pieces of platform-specific original content have been custom developed, including shorts, vlogs, web and mobile games, and interactive narrative content—and all will be enhanced with proprietary technology allowing fans to participate in the world and collect their favorite swords.
“Mighty Magiswords has been an incredible journey, starting as a simple interactive digital product and organically developing into a true multi-story world,” said Chief Content Officer, Rob Sorcher. “Expect Magiswords to continue expansion in tech and content, with new ways for the audience to participate, contribute, play, watch and collect.”

Editor-in-Chief Paula Gaetos sits down to chat with Zander Cannon, writer and artist of the comic book series Kaijumax.
During San Diego Comic-con 2016, Paula got the chance to sit down with Zander Cannon, the creator behind the tokusatsu-inspired comic book series, Kaijumax, now in its second season. Kaijumax focuses on the social system of a group of giant monster inmates on a prison island.
In the interview, Zander talks about how he got interested in the tokusatsu genre, how he created Kaijumax, as well as what's in store for the series in the future. You can pick up a copy of Kaijumax at Oni Press or at your local comic book shop.
***While it may be hard to hear Paula's audio at points during the interview due to technical issues, Zander's audio is clear.***
