 Here's a screenshot of the new Toonami Schedule, its time to Get in Gear!

Back-to-Back Kamen Rider Goodness!

I checked the TV Schedule of Cartoon Network Philippines, and lo and behold! Kamen Rider Dragon Knight AND Kamen Rider Kabuto, back-to-back! This is the second time a Kamen Rider adaptation aired here in the Philippines, the first was Saban's Masked Rider that aired back to back with VR Troopers back in the 90's and was dubbed in Filipino. This is the second time Cartoon Network Philippines aired Kamen Rider Kabuto.This fulfilled the early release of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight toys in local toy stores!

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight premieres May 1st at 10am back to back with Kamen Rider Kabuto only on Cartoon Network Philippines. I think they should call this timeslot as Back to Back Rider Goodness!
