I also really like by the way that we have threads and discussions on here about what the upgrade items could look like, and we're coming up with stuff like scrolls and tablets as those are book-adjacent or what could be seen as an evolution of books.
Bandai's answer is "book but big"

But Jaou Dragon's a pop-up book, it has to be bigger than usual to accomodate all those little plastic part and joints inside.

"Book, but Big" is how they should advertise any book above 300 pages.

As for the final form though, maybe a book based on the Book of Ancients the SOL is mentioned to protect? All Wonder Ride Books are said to be 'pages' of the book after all, and Kamen Rider LOVES to blend previous forms together for final forms.

Japanese entertainment may be, um, slightly religiously insensitive at times but I don't think they're THAT insensitive.

In my experience, Christianity is viewed in Japan in much the same way we view Greek mythology -- ie something cool to just use
I would definitely be surprised, though, if the bible was the final form? It. Just doesn't seem like where any of this will go

The final form is just a book form of Wikipedia. The final attack is named "Edit War".

I guess christian elements are just what they think is "cool". Kinda like how they think speaking in english is cool. Noticed that during my trip to Japan and some high school kids would be impressed by this other kid who would make english words.

He said they would've thought twice before using it if they knew it would eventually be distributed worldwide though.
