Tojima Tanzaburo Wants to Be a Masked Rider (Tojima Tanzaburo wa Kamen Raida ni Naritai) is a manga series created by Yokusaru Shibata in collaboration with Toei and Ishimori Productions. It was launched in the seinen magazine Hero’s Inc.’s Monthly Hero’s in May 2018.
The official website describes the story:
“Because I wanted to be Kamen Rider.”
Tanzaburo Tojima, now 40 years old, is still dead serious about becoming Kamen Rider. But just as he begins to lose hope in his dream, he gets caught up in a high-profile crime spree involving a group calling themselves the “Fake Shocker” gang…
From Yokusaru Shibata, known for Air Master and 81diver, comes a passionate series about grown-ups who love Kamen Rider a little too much—what unfolds is an all-out, no-holds-barred game of “real Kamen Rider” played from the soul.
