The stage is set and the curtain has been raised! Upon starting the new Sakura Wars, players will stumble upon a full anime intro complete with a tightly reworked original series theme.

KAMEN RIDER (1971) [Episode 1 Review]: The Mysterious Spider Man!

It’s been a while since I flexed my writer’s muscle to talk about one of my geek passions.
