Tatsu no Ko Tarou and the Train

You're wondering why the two items above the titles have some kind of connections to the article that I'm talking. Well, uh...this is kind of awkward, but apparently, the Gun Form of Kamen Rider Den-O from this titular show is based on the dragon from the same anime movie (to which it's based from the novel or from some kind of Japanese fables that someone either forgot to research the missing fables or are actually too lazy to gather their brain cells moving) that I've mentioned. And what was really ironic about these two shows (or alternatively the movie and the long running franchise) are that they are both produced by the same company: Toei (which would explain why there is a Toei Animation company, as well as the Live Action company) . Well, okay, Kamen Rider wasn't animated in a typical anime kind of way like Tatsu no Ko Tarou (or Tarou the Dragon Boy), nor that TnKT wasn't made into live action kind of way, but I wonder why the Den-O people in Wikipedia are still arguing about the Forms (one minute someone said their Forms was based on Chinese constellations, the next they were based on the Japanese Mythological Heroes). Can't they just stick to on the final decision they've made (and I'm looking at the World Embryo Wiki people too, since I'm dying to know what the heck is going on after chapter 16 and whether or not Takao is an ally or not)?

And if you don't believe me that Tatsu no Ko Tarou (a Toei animated film apparently) is going to be a trivial point in the Kamen Rider Den-O Wiki page (and hopefully, they're not going to change it, as I'm sick and tired of having the pages changed so many times), then why not go to these webpages below, if you'r really curious about it:

ANN's Info about Tatsu no Ko Tarou (aka Tarou the Dragon boy)
Some interesting articles about Tatsu no Ko Tarou and the long lost anime films
Some site with the Tatsu no Ko Tarou pics made by Toei (ironically)

P.S. Come to think of it, the dragon from the Tatsunoko Tarou film really reminded me of Haru in his dragon form from Spirited Away X3.

Quote of the Moment - "Also, side note, stop adding pointless information, dumb shit, and otherwise irrelevant information. I've finally cleaned the article up, don't screw it up again. Add information thats actually about Den'ou." - One of the Den-O Wikipeople who is fed up with people changing the Kamen Rider Den-O article back and forth.
