NOW TOP 5 ALL TIME FAVORITE TOKUSATSU CHARACTERS (SPOILERS!)

This is a continuation of my previous post. These ones are in order of who  I like the most.

So here's the top 5 of my favorite Tokusatsu characters of all time.

5. Kamen Rider Kuuga
Kuuga is amazing. His forms are great, his civilian character is great  and his reasons for fighting are heart warming. His character development in the series wasn't very big as he was already pretty much a good guy but his resolve towards being the good guy was what made him very likable. The fight with Daguva though not flashy, was extremely intense and emotional. I even thought he died at the end with Daguva.  Over all he made me laugh, he made me cry for many reasons. He deserves this spot in my heart, though if a few newer riders didn't show up he would be number 1.

4. Kamen Rider Joker
JOKER! God I loved kamen rider joker. Not that W is bad but I just like him way better than W. Shotaro by himself is a pretty solid character. He was arrogant and over confident but when pushed, could prove that he wasn't all talk. He's also like a big brother to Philip(BROTHER!) and pretty much every younger character in the show. He handled things calmly, atleast until akiko or someone else tries to butt into him. His powers as kamen rider Joker are basic but great. It reminds me of the oldschool showa riders. Though I haven't finish any of them.

3. Kamen rider Den-O/ Momotaros
When I got back into watching toku, Den-o was one of the first series I've watched and finished. Each character was unique and amusing to watch but none of them was as good as momotaros~.
He's the acting leader of the four(five with seig?). He's not the smartest but he's the most passionate of them.... well maybe next to kintaros. His form is also very cool, that and his finishing move(moves?). His relationship with the taros and ryutaro always makes me smile. I also loved that he's the Den-o representative when it comes to anniversary movies. Den-o was pretty solid, but if it didn't have momo, it wouldn't feel the same to me.

2. Kamen Rider Skull
Skull holds a special place in my heart cause of how he was shown in them movie. As you may know, a lot of characters on this list are influenced by my memories of my late dad. Well skull never fails to make me tear up a bit every time I watch his phone scene with his daughter. Other than that, skull is just plain bad ass!I mean, look at him! He's the first rider to not only have a scarf, but a freakin soft fedora too! His fighting style is very stylish and it reminds me of a lot of showa riders, considering he'd probably be fighting beside black at the time if they shared a world.

1.Kamen Rider OOO
Both Eiji and the past infinity king are my top favorite toku characters. Their concept of powers and how they are able to use their powers are amazing. The infinity king was the very epitome of desire and Eiji on the other hand was an almost void of desire. Their forms are also amazing, each on having it's own strenghts and weaknesses. Eiji was a very inspiring character for me and I look up to him to this very day. But what really won me over to him was his putotyra and Tajador forms. I just love how beautiful they look side by side or even against each other. It'd take me more than two posts to say how much I love this rider so I'll stop.

So that's it,my top 5 favorite Tokusatsu Characters of all time.
