It seems some sort of Saber Episode 0 is out or leaked or something and, uh, looks like they're doing a much stronger shared universe in Reiwa!
I kiiinda doubt they'll do much more than references though, and don't expect Humagears to be showing up every two seconds despite the world Zero-One set up. It'll probably keep to its very loose continuity

Didn't they try this with Kuuga and Agito as well, only to quickly realize that it was unsustainable?

I'll be real when I say I'm skeptical on how canon this is because this "Episode 0" is 16 minutes long but like, 9 minutes of it is a giant Recap of 01 and a lot of the rest of it seems to be skipping through scenes of like Episode 1 for Saber.
It feels less like an Episode 0 and more like a half episode promo that promotes the new Kamen Rider: Saber. And then promotes that we're entering Zero-One's final arc. Last edited by Enchilada645; 07-31-2020 at 12:34 PM.. |

With the story aspect of Saber I wouldn't be surprised if they treated Zero One as an in universe story. Maybe that about Aruto being Zero-One was some article about some TV show, or maybe a Movie. It'd be a fun way to acknowledge the existence of prior series without needing to worry about contradicting stuff.
As for the bit bout Agito/Kuuga attempting something similar we also had Fourze which tried to set up a shared universe with Showa era only for that idea to aparently be tossed out almost as fast as it was put forth in the series. |

It also makes him look like the one who couldn’t think of a really creative name.
“Okay, guys, we’re doing sword themes for our names! Show me what you got!” “Saber!” “Espada!” “Kenzan!” “Caliber!” “... Blade? That’s part of a sword, right?” “That’s already taken.” “Okay, then how about, um... Blade...s?” |

It'll probably keep to its very loose continuity But if they do wanna actually have a shared universe that doesn't just get retconned with "LMAO Zi-O", It can be very easily said that HIDEN and the Humagears are located in a seperate city. Post-Show appearances can just be written down as the Humagear city idea got actually built over the ruins of Daybreak Town. Which ofcourse, will just look like Tokyo.

Honestly it's a bit of a tangent but I feel "Continuity" is such a boogie man to people. It's like people only think of the Avengers when thinking of a shared world, but then forget that between the 4 Avengers movies there's about 20 movies that can be watched as stand alone stores with minimal connection to each other. Continuity can be established as easily as just putting Futo Tower in a background shot, or having a Ridevendor tucked away in a corner. People who get it go "Heeey I recognize that", people who don't are none the wiser as it's not part of the story. Last edited by Damienthathedge; 07-31-2020 at 07:07 PM.. |

While I can't tell if this implies Saber came up with Zero-One as a story or actually met Zero-One and wrote down his story.
