    the problem is that kamen rider is a television show for 9 year olds and so the good boy goofball is just too good a cipher and lens for the viewing audience

    And said 9 year olds love big toys that do lots of noises, so that battle was lost years ago.

    Fun fact: I did not realize that the Drivers in Zero-One were voiced by the members of Monkey Majik until my partner and I were almost finished with the series

    Or after depending on how you want to rank 01hers as part of the overall series

    Also it's Ex-aid & Zero-ones writer, and they did great stuff well both shows. Zero one got a bit fucked by COVID, but was still strong, and ex aid is just genuinely well written

    I wanna see some big wipeouts. Some people should get wiped out!

    And then the Kamen Rider feels real sad about it.

    So a video of Geats' fight in the Revice solo-film leaked.
    Granted this will likely change some but it seems possible for Geats to fight with just half his form-armor equipped. Said form-armor called Magnum for the upper-half and Boost for the bottom. The transformation items for the series seem to half of what's been seen of the Desire Driver's front end though the video doesn't make it clear if the center core where Geats' symbol is part of one of the two halves or if it acts as a base to attach the halves to.

    From what we’ve seen I think
    the core is a base; you can see some LED type stuff on the half circle bit just outside it around the core of the driver that would have to be part of the driver itself on the DX belt, and it has some different patterns on it than the magatama ones we see in the poster.

    Didn’t expect that plating on the left side to be part of the Boost Handle though, that’s neat; almost expected it to function like a sword with that given the way the handle and plating almost resemble a hilt and hand guard.

    EDIT: actually hmm
    looks like at least boost houses half that circle, one sec

    Yeah Boost definitely has it, you’re right. Not sure about magnum though

    EDIT AGAIN: wait no I think you’re onto something here. Looking at it when it’s just magnum, you can see how the mechanism works; might make sense for that to be symmetrical then

    Remember that this is gonna be a in a live-action battle royale setting so it makes sense that the Driver itself is a basic mass-produced unit from the tournament sponsor(s) made special by the unique attachments given to a player.

    So, bets on this season having a form that drives the user crazy, and an upgrade that gives them control of the crazy form?

    ...Because they've done that for the last 3 years, and the only reason it's not last 4 years is Zi-O skipped it, while Build had it.

    Oh yeah that part i remembered; I’d figured that the attachments in this case were specifically the disc portion of magnum and the handle of Boost, rather than the rest of the chunks that compose the full attachment [so I’d figured the disc swapped in and out on its own and the handle slotted in like a key in an ignition switch, more or less]

    Boost’s chrome-orange bits look like they open and pull back towards the handle once you activate it too


    Also same clip:
    I like that the bike takes advantage of being kitsune themed to do a cyclone homage with six tails that are also six exhaust mufflers

    So someone actually subtitled that clip.
    The Driver sounds pretty great. Wenn the upper-half armor comes on, it announces it and then goes "Ready? Fight!" When the bottom-half armor was applied, it called out "Dual On: Get Ready For Boost And Magnum" which under the tournament context could also mean 'duel'. A finishing move is called a Grand Victory, the finisher used by Geats in the movie called Magnum Boost Grand Victory.

    Looks like the form attachments are “Raise Buckles” and will come in various styles than just the kind we’re seeing with boost and magnum

    Namely, the form we see here with Hammer and (as our first legacy item for Geats) Revice

    hy5i6luwfm5w.jpeg


    Guess this will be how, with everyone using Desire Drivers, they’ll still create a fairly unique silhouette for each rider’s belt

    Detailed information lifted & reservation acceptance start decision 🌸

    Stay tuned for more information ✨

    #暴太郎戦隊ドンブラザーズ

    Not 100% sure but it sounds like It’s a revised version of Don Momotaro’s Robotaro form that you use instead of the standard one.

    Which makes some sense; supposedly the reason the regular release can’t articulate like that, and has static skirts, is because it needed the stability for the additional combinations for Don ToraDrajin and whatever is to come later. So guessing you just swap out which version of Don Robotaro you want to use

    EDIT:

    Edit: you can make out now how the different patterns on the buckles work; seems like it’s different little plates inside, each with their own pattern that gets lit up to display; curious how they avoid bleed through on the patterns? (When not actively cycling them that is)

    A look at the Zero-One Legend Raise Buckle. It confirms that the LRBs will have models of the associated Rider's Driver on them which is a bit weird but I guess it helps set them apart.

    The revolve change figures are fascinating to me.

    DX Driver set promo unveils Buffer (or at least that’s what Toku twitter is calling them)

    g1d2pwcqo69u.jpeg


    Somehow they get the traditional O-signal gem thing (though arguably it’s done by having another slot open in the mask for the eye/visor to see through; curious if the continuous visor design thing we see on the revolve figures are actually what the rider helmets are supposed to look like without their masks on then: one continuous eye thing)

    Also interesting: Buffer seems to only have one Raise Buckle (Zombie)

    Edit: everyone keeps comparing them to Evangelion Unit-01, but honestly the vibe I keep getting is freakin’ Belial

    Perhaps they're hiding their proper looks for now but it could be interesting if some of the initial Riders never get a major Raise Buckle like Geats and Buffer.

    but Geats is just hitting all the right notes. I mean it seems to be basically Ryuki: The Game, and Ryuki is one of my favs

    Hopefully Geats has a similar kill count
