I simply wanted to show some love to this show. Tojima Wants To Be A Kamen Rider speaks to me despite not knowing much about Kamen Rider. Just want to do my small part to put it on people radar.

At time of recording the show is at episode 12.______________________________Follow meMy website: https://dadneedstotalk.com/Blue Sky: dadneedstotalk2.bsky.socialTwitter: https://twitter.com/DadNeedsToTalkInstagram: https://www.instagram.com...
