Zero-One March Scans
13 Attachment(s)
Some of new things:
- Vulcan Rampage Gatling Form - Jin Burning Falcon Form - Yua transformed into Jackal Raider |
When I said I wanted an upgrade form for Valkyrie, this is not what I meant.
Also looking forward to Thouser vs. Horobi. |
Tropes tell me that being dragged down to being a monster means a redemption where she gets a new upgrade... but my cynicism tells me "she's a girl, of course she won't".
Honestly, more than her being a monster; I'm disappointed to see she's still with Gai. |
I feel immensely bad for the character, her actress, and anyone who had any hopes in her. That includes me, of course. Teased to be a core rider at the start and then pushed out of focus and now is just the 'monster girl lackey' to someone else. I don't want to direct my frustration towards the character herself... so instead I shall turn it all towards Thouser and pray that everybody, Jin and Horobi included, take turns to beat the pulp out of him.

Horobi vs. Thouser? Sign me up! Altho, I'm kinda worried for Horobi here since we remember that: Thouser > Assault Vulcan > Shining Hopper > Horobi. I'm kinda worried that it's kinda like the Mashin Chaser vs. Another Decade thing where Horobi is hopelessly fighting against someone stronger than him. Man, Horobi has a lot of catching up. But if this means a potential upgrade form for him and possibly a team-up of Jin and Aruto in case he gets captured does get me excited.
Also, is that Ikazuchi on the bottom left of the image on the same page? Also, honestly, I'm not that mad about Valkyrie turning into a Raider IF it means she'll see more action and characterization. I hope she won't be MOTW thing and would actually serve as a redemption for her. The idea of a rider turning into a Kaijin isn't new (Chalice and Lord Baron) but I'm really interested on where this is going. |

And I would very much love to be proven wrong about Valkyrie. I don't have my hopes up, and it wouldn't retroactively make up for how she's been treated thus far, but I would be happy to eat my words... |

I feel like Horobi will get a new power-up at some point, given that Rampaging Vulcan uses Scorpion (I'm assuming that it also using Hornet and Cheetah is why Yua needs a raid riser).

Yes it is and the hooded figure is here too. The 4 MJ.net bosses all together. |
It's great to finally look forward to Zero One again after that whole competition nonsense.
|
So, Jin does have a new belt, even if it's just a modified Shotriser with a blade. Like I said last year, the new late series villain driver really seemed to be something related to Ohmori, rather than just Bandai, since they're just repaints and retools. Some people seemed to think that after Zi-O didn't have one Bandai was dropping the concept, but now we're right back to it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaking of which, does anybody else find that shot of Jin and Thouser clashing swords hilarious? I know it's clearly supposed to be one of those moments where the two stare down each other as the blades meet, but I can't help but laugh at the considerable size difference between the ThousandJacker and Jin's knife. I'm almost thinking of getting a screen shot of that moment and making a meme out of it when it happens in the show. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rampage Gatling looks... Okay. I'm a little disappointed that his chest piece is just a repaint of his base form chest with blue wolf parts stapled on to the left side so you don't notice; https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20190908005446 I'm also not sure why he has the combined powers of a bunch of Progrise keys he's never used, but hey I guess that means Zero-One's final form is definitely going to be centered around an upgraded grasshopper now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jackal Yua is... A bit out of left field I guess. I'm assuming it's because Rampage Vulcan uses the powers of Cheetah and Wasp, she has to find another key to use. I don't think she's devolving from a rider into a MotW (or rather I hope she's not), so maybe she found a way to alter the RaidRiser and turn it into an upgraded driver for herself? Maybe it'll just be a stopgap to keep her alive until the Q4 scans like how Evolt was Blood Stalk until he got the EvolDriver? I don't wanna get anyone's hopes up, but it is just a few ideas that came to mind. |
i seriously wish Yua gets redeemed and uses the Jackal key with her Shotriser for her final form...
or she can get killed off saving someone from Thousar.. -w-; |
You know what I just realized.
The hooded figure from MJ.net is supposed to be Death right ? and God of Death in Egyptian mythology is Anubis. A Jackal. Would be dope it that's related somehow. |
Aw... As cool as the suit is... That is far, farrrr from the "upgrade" I wanted Yua to get... I'll just hope it doesn't mark the end of her arc and there'll still be more to come.
|
Rampaging wolf looks really good but I hope he gets a completed looking form because his left side looks REALLY good.
Ironically, he looks like the beyblade named Valkarie |

Rampaging Wolf: looks cluttered but maybe seeing it in action will change my mind.
Jackyl Yua:Love how this looks, but she needs a real upgrade. Maybe she'll keep this key and get a new Rider form out of it? And just because; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbOPpgrTXh8 Burning Falcon: The clear winner here! Looks boss and while the key's just a red Falcon it does look cool, plus the suit looks like a real upgrade to Jin. Our boy's gone from pink to crimson and he should be the fire that helps Zero-One after Gai derailed the show so badly. I feel bad for both Yua and Gai's actors; this 5 match setup arc is a real drag even if it's given us the amazing Metal Cluster Hopper form. Aruto's suits are real winners |
Rampage Gatling is a bit busy, but it does make me optimistic about Zero-One's final form not being another "All powers combined" sort of form.
Jackal Raider is interesting. I love the suit design, but I'm disappointed Yua seems to be getting downgraded to monster. Hopefully there's still more to come for her, a fourth quarter upgrade. Burning Falcon looks fantastic, very kick-ass. Yet another new belt, including the two monster belts and the movie belt, I think that's the eighth so far. I feel like that's gotta be a record |
I really like that Metsubojinrai.net is back. Burning Falcon looks okay, kinda weird how they remolded the Shotriser into a small sword / dagger.
Rampage Gatling... kinda meh. Need to see it in motion. But, as mentioned above, them getting the "has every power before it combined"-crap out of the way so main Rider final form can potentially be something unique for once sounds cool. Yua as jackal reaper lady - why not? I hope this leads to a redemption of sorts with a new power up. |

Vulcan looks like another arc possession hazard build like. Looks like CrossZ. It make senses if the Arc give him those powers akin to Zaia jacking 01 powers. Last week Thouser defeated the arc controlled 01 using like 8 power set finished even though it's not impressive giant cgi version finished.in Jin burning falcon looks like the Apple rider from Gaim and using a broken sengoku driver. Yaiba degraded to non-tertiary rider level. She's like the mook motw foot soldier now without a dedicated storyline aside being secretary and a play with comedy relief with Thouser. She kind of looks like Kuuga and Agito villains.Slw |
Rai returning? More factions. Build crossz like parasite arm. It's like fuwa isn't really thinking he's in control. Maybe the arc already planning his narrative west world style. Iz

Normally I'd be a bit annoyed at Yua's situation, but her Raider Form actually looks pretty neat. Not to mention she's using a new Progrise Key that just got introduced and we haven't had as a part of the lineup.
So it interests me since they could have just given her a random one that hasn't been used as a Raider yet. Makes me wonder considering the SlashRiser deal with Jin is that it's a ZAIA thing from what I've been seeing. Either she uses Jackel in a Shotriser or in a Slashriser and she gets a final kitbash form. At least that's my guess anyway. Point is this doesn't bother me too much since this means Yua will be actually doing something. |

Honestly, Yua's been sidelined so hard lately that as long as it's not to kill her off, anything that brings her more screen time seems like an improvement. And I don't wanna get my hopes up, but it would be cool if she uses the Jackal key for a Rider form later on. I'm curious why she's using a RaidRiser instead of her ShotRiser, I hope the show has a good reason for that...
Rampage Gatling looks... interesting? I do like the concept of incorporating the complicated mechanical details from inside the keys because it makes a neat contrast to the sleek designs, and I like how it's asymmetrical as a callback to the original Shooting Wolf form, but I'm still not quite feeling the suit. I'll have to see it in action before I decide whether I love it or hate it. Burning Falcon is just beautiful, and I'd been wondering if they'd ever do a dagger-based remold of the ShotRiser, so it's nice to see that becoming a real thing! Not sure how I feel about Jin coming back, I'll reserve judgement until it actually happens in the show. |

Gonna be honest, I look forward to Fighting Jackel, I wanna see if it's a dangerous enough key to rival DoDo.
Weird that the Slashriser has Zaia in it's name, but then again the Shotriser has AIMS, so I would like to see a mirror match. Rampage Vulcan looks awesome for a form, can't wait to see it in action. |
I was so, so on the Valkyrie team, and while I stopped watching Zero One pretty early on (Arturo is just too painful to watch) I’m pretty sad such a potentially awesome female rider is getting shafted consistently.
She really needed her own Assault form or some equivalent, proper upgrade, not this... thing. Meanwhile Vulcan is boring as dirt and is on upgrade number 2. |
When I first saw the scan I thought the form looked awesome, before I saw that she wasn't using the Shotriser, but instead the RaidRiser. I'm still holding out some hope for her. Honestly, her using a RaidRiser is probably just to sell more of that toy when it's finally released.
BTW, has any series had remotely close to the number of drivers they've had in this one? 1. Zero-One Driver. 2. AIMS Shot Riser. 3. Zetsumeriser. 4. MetsubouJinrai Forceriser. 5. Thousandriver. 6. RaidRiser. 7. SlashRiser. 8. Cycloneriser (Movie-Exclusive for those who haven't seen it.) That's a total of eight different transformation devices. I don't recall of another series having even half that. On the more interesting side I find it strange that Vulcan is getting the form that has the powers of all the main Progrise Keys (besides Rising Hopper), as traditionally that's the power-up that would go to the main rider. |
I wonder if Jin got Krakoa'd like the X-Men and his AI was transferred into one of the satellites and was rebuilt to be its emissary of hell. :lolol
Either way it looks freakin' metal.:rock: |
Gonna play devil's advocate here, but I think Yua becoming a Raider makes perfect sense. Remember, ever since the beginning of the ZAIA vs Hiden arc, she's clearly been holding back a lot of feelings, most likely being negative, about her position and place in the whole situation. And people become Raiders because of their negative feelings, right? So Yua's probably got a LOOOOOAD of negative feelings to draw from. I think with her becoming the Jackal Raider we might actually get to see her backstory, since of the three protagonist Riders, only hers isn't known. I'm thinking that she or someone she loves is in debt to Gai, which is why she's still working with him and why she hadn't quit ZAIA yet.
Plus, we've seen how strong Raiders are compared to Shining Assault Hopper and Assault Wolf, and that they're not only able to keep up with those forms, but sometimes outright overwhelm them at times. So being the Jackal Raider might give Yua a big edge, especially considering she's an experienced fighter compared to the past Raiders. |

Yeah I was going to say, a lot of people think becoming a monster is a downgrade but in this case, becoming a Raider is an upgrade. Given their essentially Pseudo-Riders, since the Raidriser is a stripped down Shotriser and the base suit is a AIMS Rider suit.
Aside from Storming Penguin (Who to be honest was a punk anyway. Even Buffalo did better.), the other Raiders have shown that they are difficult to handle for the most part. To where Shining Assault and Vulcan Assault have to be the ones to deal with them. So in a sense, this is very much an upgrade... just not the one we were expecting lol But here's hoping that becoming a Raider means something, and that we'll get a bit more out of Yua as a result. But swerving from that discussion I'm absolutely at the edge of my seat waiting for Jin vs Thouser, just from the pictures alone that fight looks like it's going to be really cool in action. |
The cool thing too about this discourse over fighting jackel too is crossing fingers it's obvious she's gonna use that key in a shot riser eventually anyway. And or of course the epilogue movie/if she ever gets a V Cinema,
So thankfully Yua either way isn't gonna be a completely wasted potential of a character.....ya know, hopefully. |
