I agree that titles are like names. You wouldn't change Sakura to Cherryblossom or Ryu to Dragon.

But I'm voting for Kamen Norite anyway.
Those japanese have to learn to use their own words!

Let's just sub Go-Onger into Power Rangers RPM while we're in the mood... It's a proper name, leave it be!

Lol. KAMEN RIDER!

Kamen Raidaa?

XD

Kamen Raider of the lost ark.

Oh hey, look at that. That is the sign that Yume needs to sleep. She's acting dumb again.

Well I was gonna vote for Masked Norite but it wasn't up there XD

I just thought of something in all seriousness. If you change it to Masked Rider, wouldn't it be redundant since it's already there albeit smaller?

It's Mask Rider! You should only translate literally!

But I go with Kamen Rider, simple because it sounds so much better than Masked Rider

Kamen Rider, untill they decided to change that big kanji to big Masked Rider Romanji.

I'll vote norite though...

I started knowing the franchise as Masked Rider, since Black was dubbed in the Philippines as Masked Rider Black (also has title screen with it). Though I also liked Kamen Rider, basically its the original title. Can I have both.

If I could I would have chose Kamen Mask Rider, just to appease both sides.

I always thought that translators (and now Dragon Knight) call it Kamen Rider to distance themselves from that horrible Power Rangers spin-off, Masked Rider. I'm definitely for keeping the trend going.

Also, what's all this Norite stuff about?

It's a proper noun... I vote for Kamen Rider, yo.

I voted Kamen Rider.

Masked Rider reminds me of that Shitty Saban Adaption of Black RX too much.
