Looking at what we can see of Kamen Rider Blaze's belt, it seems like he inserts his Wonder RideBook into the middle slot instead of the right slot. Meaning that there's a good chance that different Riders use different slots for their base forms. So I think each Rider has their own element, and they can augment it with the fairy tale-themed Wonder RideBooks.
I'm super excited, it looks so silly and absurd, fits right in with Kamen Rider. |

I'm sure I’ll end up loving it if the show is good, but what I've seen so far isn't getting me pumped. But let's wait for the press-conference, maybe that'll make me excited as well! |

You're right of course, but coming off of Zero-One which was very basic in design - the whole swords and books thing is a tad weird.

Like look at me straight in the eye, and say that "genius motorcyclist-turned-cyborg by super Nazis fights against said super Nazis in a grasshopper-themed biker costume" is not a silly and absurd premise. |

The more i look and think about it, the more i found it kinda silly
For example - the dragon jack, the horn sword is intertwine with the beanstalk vine lol Also the leo? Tiger? rider what kind of an element he should represent? Ice? But its kinda rare to see the lion motif in blue. Also the blue rider mask have nearly the same identical design compare it to the dragon. The blue fiery thingy is a bit different though. https://ibb.co/qrzwFXc Last edited by msg; 07-26-2020 at 02:43 PM.. |

To be fair, Zero-One in design is more a shout out to the original Kamen Rider, which in of itself was silly and absurd.

There's nothing wrong with silly. But Zero-One was very "basic" IMO, in a good way, and it feels a bit strange going back to sword guy transforming with books. But maybe that's exactly what I need actually. If you enjoy something basic, the next thing to experience should be something exotic and different, just to mix it up a bit. |

Oh it is. But on the weird-o-meter it ranks way lower than let's say dancing fruit warriors fighting against a plant invasion from outer space.

Right is mythological animals, middle is animals, left is fairytales and such. The third Rider's main book is Aladdin. There seem to be more Riders, but their relation to the slots and the elements is still unclear. |

Based on toy leaks, yeah, the three main Riders use the three different slots with an element focus. Saber is fire, on the right, Blaze is water, in the middle, and the third one will be thunder on the left.
