NO PAIN. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAGiscK2Qjo Kuuga is not only my favorite Kamen Rider, but also my favorite toku thing ever, and I'm so glad he's second in line to get an official release in the West. https://twitter.com/OilyWhisper68/status/1255221448463056897 MidnightCrewSubs giving their blessing. They were in the middle of subbing the Kuuga blu-rays, which are a damn good remaster of a show from 2000 and presumably that same source footage is being used with this. The only problem is that the Grongi lines will also be translated, and the subtitles for their lines will not be optional. And that's a problem, because the Grongi speak in a made-up tongue that makes their motives, as well as the rest of the show, a mystery that has to be slowly unraveled by watching through. An official cypher for their language was released with the blu-rays so viewers could figure out what the Grongi are saying, but it's meant to be used on subsequent watchthroughs, as there are huge spoilers whenever the Grongi talk about what it is they're trying to do. So anyone's first watch of Kuuga via Shout will have a lot of the mystery sucked out of it. :( But this is still a huge step for Rider and I can't wait for future licensing and hopefully physical releases too. --- Podcast/Audiobook Board https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1364- View my ASCII art and others' at https://thenewhotness.info/ ...
