Kamen Rider: THE FIRST

A Tokyo subway tunnel hums above ground. Underground, a white coat’s sleeves are pinned by black gloves. The coat belongs to Takeshi Hongo, swallowed whole by a shifting nightmare of chrome and shadow. One jerk of a gear and his spine clicks into place. His skull plates seal. The hum becomes a heartbeat. A 60s blow-up doll, suddenly alive in the wrong decade.
