Kamen Rider Fourze/Trivia

• Backed by JAXA: To the point that the Tsukuba Space Center is seen in the opening sequence.
• Dawson Casting: Shun is a high school student portrayed by a 22-year-old actor.
• Fan Nickname: You know it's going to be Rocket Man, just look at his suit shape and attacks...
  • Then there is Kamen Rider PlayStation.
  • And Kamen Rider Onigiri Head.
  • And, of course, Kamina Rider, since Gentaro is considered by some an Expy of the famous Badass.
  • Kamen Rider Meteor's fighting style has led to him being called Kamen Rider Bruce Lee.
  • As soon as it was first shown, fans started referring to Meteor Storm's finisher as a Beyblade.
• Hey, It's That Guy!: Fire-5 appears in the first two episodes and #13-14 as the Orion Zodiarts user.
  • Alternative Zero guest stars in episodes 7-8.
  • Amane from Kamen Rider Blade appears as an Amanogawa student this time, after her stint as an art student in Kamen Rider Double.
  • For that matter, Sakuya Tachibana/Kamen Rider Garren appears as the principal of AGHS starting from #13. The Super Hero Disaster net movies lampshade this by having him do Garren's henshin pose in one short.
  • Abe was previously Mana's cousin Taichi in Kamen Rider Agito.
  • Nao Nagasawa (Nanami Nono/Hurricane Blue and Lily Shirogane) appears as Gentaro's new teacher in #21-22. Interestingly, one of the guys at the gym was Gozo/Metal Dopant.
  • In #30, Princess Shinken Red appears as a classmate at Ryuusei's old school.
  • Yayoi Tokuda was Rije in Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger.
  • In Movie Wars MegaMax, Magi Mother is working with Foundation X!
• Hey, It's That Voice!: Nobuyuki Hiyama takes the role of Narrator and Ryusei/Kamen Rider Meteor's support Tachibana and seems to be making Guy Shishioh the story teller.
  • One of the people singing Fourze's new battle theme is Sheryl Nome.
  • Virgo Zodiarts is voiced by Rie Tanaka in the Megamax movie. Seems like Lacus Clyne is playing another pink character.
• I Knew It!: Sarina Sonoda is Scorpion Zodiarts.
  • And Ohsugi-sensei ends up becoming the Kamen Rider Club adviser.
• Name's the Same: It's not so long since there was another Kengo (depicted as a Jerkass at one point) in Kamen Rider ...
  • Miu Kazashiro shares a name with Go-on Silver.
  • Any relation between Sarina Sonoda and a certain past Rider heroine?
    • That might be a second line of Theme Naming, since Chuta Ohsugi seems to follow Daisuke Okubo.
  • Norio Eguchi(later revealed to be the vigilante Cygnus)'s first name means "man of law", just like his VERY well-known namesake, Norio Wakamoto!
    • From the same arc, we have a mentally-unsound girl in lace named Misa.
  • Kamen Rider Meteor isn't the first Rider to have a Storm form. Interestingly, both are blue and staff-wielding.
  • And now there's Goto, the Capricon Horoscopes - we just had another Goto, who also had a huge dream, but fortunately avoided the easy way to realize it.
• Playing Against Type: Nobuyuki Hiyama as the Chessmaster and Man Behind the Man Tachibana who even has a You Have Failed Me... moment in #27.
• So My Parents Can Watch: The reason why actor Sota Fukishi took the role of Gentaro.
  • Played straight for Anna Tsuchiya, who does the opening song for her kids based on much her son loved Kamen Rider OOO back when it aired.
• Throw It In: Fumika Shimizu (who plays Yuuki) actually improvised the Hayabusa song, which the production crew allowed her to record (and used for a later episode).
• Fourze breaks the tradition that W's FangJoker and OOO's TaJaDor of premiering the Mid-Season Upgrade in the Movie Wars film before showing it in the series proper. In this case Rocket States was shown in the movie but Fourze true upgrade is Magnet States, which premiered in the tv show proper.
