Kamen Rider Amazon is a Japanese television series.
Production
[change | change source]It was the shortest Kamen Rider series ever, lasting only 24 episodes. It was believed to be due to the show's large amounts of violence. But this was due to a pre-planned change of networks airing the program, from NET to MBS/TB. A clean break in airing series was requested. There was a planned end at episode 24.
Kamen Rider Amazons
