018 - Trilo-bonanza (Kamen Rider Eps 30-31)

Travis and Nathan come to another pair of Kamen Rider (1971) episodes that want so very badly to harken back to the “Hongo era”—by featuring a vampire trilobite and a plague-spreading anteater. Yep. Col. Zol performs a bizarre ceremony to resurrect a fossilized trilobite (that may or may not have been found under Godzilla’s foot) while the Rider Girls try ward the monster off with garlic. Because that makes sense. Ironically, the anteater proves to be one of the scariest and most powerful kaijins-of-the-week KR2 has fought! He even infects Goro the “Kamen Kenny,” forcing KR2 to finally learn a new move. In other words…this time, it’s personal!
