Decade Cast and theme song preformer semi-revealed.

So They had that Press conference for Decade earlier, and a whole bunch of stuff has been revealed.


Let us start off with this:



From Left to Right we have:

Murai Ryouta as Kamen Rider Kuuga (more on this later)
Masahiro Inoue as Kamen Rider Decade
GACKT preforming the theme song "Journey through the Decade"
Mori Anna as the Rider Heroine
and Ishibashi Renzi as the villian(?) (at least I think that's him.)

I'm slightly disappointed, I was hoping the nearly two week long rumor of the kid who played Asumu to be Decade, but I did admit it was highly unlikely in the first place. What really worries me is that the guy who played that Detective in Climax Deka is apparently going to be Kuuga. I could mean that they are recasting the other riders as well, or that Odigiri Joe just refused to resume his role. That or they have Kuuga in a very recurring role (Why else would he be a part of this cast announcement). Still, this is going to leave some very bitter taste is a lot of people's mouths.


GACKT preforming the theme song is an really intresting piece of news though. Kamen Rider is still doing it's tracks through AVEX, so obviously this is an out of label artist creating a contract for a one time song or such (Which happens all the time). But what is really intresting that. . . Gackt is very very well known. And while none of the Heisei Rider theme song preformers have really been unknown, Kamen Rider theme songs have more been a launching ground to boost up careers or bring the artist(s) further into the public eye.

And now I leave you with a photo of Decade's Bike that he will probably never use.
