GO, GO, LET'S GO! Visiting the Kamen Rider 50 Years Exhibition!

 Earlier today, Friday, January 13, I visited the Kamen Rider 50 Years Exhibition currently taking place in Sunshine City, Ikebukuro. The exhibit, which runs from December 23 through January 15, covers the entire history of the Kamen Rider franchise and features actual props from the various series, as well as replica suits of the numerous heroes and villains. A picture's worth a thousand words, so let's get to the photos!

'The War in Space' Comes to an Unusual Place!

A few weeks ago, I was visiting Ikebukuro's Sunshine City with a friend when I noticed something interesting. Outside a small shop was a poster from Toho's The War in Space hanging on its wall. I didn't have my camera handy at the time, but today I returned to photograph it.  

The store is called Itchomeichibanchi Yorozuya, or the First District, Block 1 General Store. The poster is tacked on the wall outside the shop, so you don't even need to enter the store to see it. It's surrounded by a lot of children's toys, which I suppose is appropriate for the movie. 

It was quite surprising to see a War in Space poster hanging in a random shop, but that's part of the fun of being in Japan!
