You're probably right to be concerned, as this material is highly flammable. (Long story short: your perspective will resonate with some people and will do whatever the reverse of resonating is with other people. I'm happy to talk about it via PM.) It's probably best to steer this conversation back to Kamen Rider ZiO as quickly as possible.
Although I love the term 'whatever the reverse of resonating is', I have to say. I think a female main rider would be fantastic. As a girl who enjoys Kamen Rider, I'd love to be able to identify more fully with the main character for once (well, to an extent. The chances of us getting a female main rider are very small - the chances of one being both a girl and a lesbian are less likely than Putin and Trump stepping down at the same time. Annuga's not the only LGBT girl on this board, damn it! *shakes fist dramatically at Toei*). On the other hand, I'm not certain the 20th Anniversary would be the best time. Like...? I don't know, it'd feel a bit weird to have the last Heisei Rider be a girl when the previous nineteen were male. The first Rider of the next era may fit a bit better - especially if Zi-O will only last until the abdication - but honestly, I'll just be happy if Kamen Rider's still here in another ten years - a female Main Rider would just be a nice little cherry on top. Speaking of, though, I do wonder if that wrist brace really is his transformation trinket? The last non-belt-using Main Rider was Hibiki...and that was a decidedly un-Kamen Rider show, aesthetic-wise. Zi-O looks far more traditional, so it'll be interesting to see how things go there.

Now that I have processed the fact that the next rider is a WALKING TALKING AND FIGHTING ROLEX, my first impressions:
IT'S AWESOME. I love it. The ラ イ ダー on the suit's face is not that much of an eyesore and I love how creative the design team got with this suit. With that said so far only question I have is will the actual suit's paint job have a plated finish or metallic finish for the silver parts.

With Zi-O apparently teaming up with a bunch of other riders, it'll be a crime if they never get to fight Chronus. Analog vs Digital baby!

Yeah...I think I'm just going to skip over how accidentally (I hope) misogynistic that post is, despite how much it upset me to read, and just focus on Zi-O themself.

Sorry, wasn't trying to upset anyone. I don't think a guy saying he relates to the male perspective and doesn't identify as a female is misogynistic though, not at all. But I'm going to shut up because I'm not trying to cause trouble. I think you may be seeing what you want to see there though, sorry if it upset you however as that was not my intention. I like this forum and don't want to upset anyone, I like coming here and talking about this stuff. Some of the posts I read got me thinking and I probably should've kept my thoughts to myself. Anyway, new Rider looks cool. |

Wow for an anniversary season Zi-O looks nice. I see a little bit of other riders suit in him like the faiz finger tips and the wizard coat.
I don't see this rider being a female just because the suit has pink. Toei is not gonna go out with a bang for the final Hensei rider as a woman being the main rider. Zi-O HAS to be a male to sell the toys that's just how it works. I could see the second or third rider being female that can happen that way she sell less toys and won't hurt toy sales. |

I'm trying to figure out the gimmick. Will the armor turn into like a rolled-up watch like you see on display? Or will it match more like the rumor drawing and look like a bust/chess piece.
