This is a bit of a heartwarming Kamen Rider-based post to lift the spirits of people out in the Netverse.

Some Kamen Rider cosplayers in Hong Kong spent a full day gathering up donations for Japanese relief while in-costume. The entire video is set to some heartwarming music as well, so it really gave me a nice feeling to watch it, even if I wasn’t there. Cheers!

MY SON WILL NOT BE BORN FROM DRAGONS, BUT HIS FAITHFUL COMPANION WILL BE… DRAGONBORN!

Does that mean I can still get a prize from Bethesda Softworks if I do so?!
Anyway, Trailer Time:

Here’s a little dose of awesome for you today, courtesy of the Overly Positive blog. The man in the video above, Ted Williams, used to be a homeless man.

According to this report on the Today Show, it seems someone representing the Cleveland Cavaliers has offered the fellow a job and a house as a result of the above video going viral.

Definitely some good news.

EDITED TO ADD:

More Ted Williams coverage-

Thanks to the Hunter of Hunter’s Insight for finding this clip on YouTube. I saw it two days ago and was hoping someone would come along and record it.

There’s been 45 years worth of Ultraman goodness in the world, so Tsuburaya productions decided to commemorate this with a special promotional video. Enjoy!

A bit of filler for you today. As I was looking for something Harry Potter related, and stumbled across a video I used to have on an old computer. This is the Japanese Spider-man adaptation from 1978, and he has a giant robot who isn’t named Spider-bot or some crazy stuff like that.

OH NO… The robot’s name? Leopardon. That’s right, a giant yellow leopard robot for Spider-man.

After the jump: the full song, from Youtube. Look for wonderful mistranslations of the song in the comments of the two, such as “He toss a genie!” and “Give me a Nazi.” Enjoy!
