Though, I think that Vice just thinks that Sakura's Demon looks cute. Like, how do you think he would react when it is revealed that the Inner Demon of Sakura looks like a Cute Plushy? Likely it's more of a family-type of love.
Something tells me that the series is just starting out to try and build the family up before they choose to add the Dramatic Parts. It's sort of acting like Kamen Rider Ex-Aid as it's starting out with comedic parts, however I feel like it will turn dramatic
Not so fast, FreshToku. I don't feel like they would just Kill off Hiromi just for the hell (hehe, pun not intended) of it. I don't think they would kill him off yet. First of all, his belt is Premium Bandai-exclusive. Would they really just kill off a character whose Transformation Device is a Premium Bandai Exclusive?

Now, here's a bit of a more out there theory, but maybe the Kujaku Vistamp is based upon either ZX or Black RX. I am leaning more towards Black RX because of the colors of the Vistamp. The Blue and Orange are reminiscent of Biorider's Primary Colors. Even the fans that Sakura's Demon Becomes are reminiscent of either Biorider's Bio Blade or Black RX's base Revolcane. The fact that the Demon becomes 2 Fans could be a reference to the two swords.
You could even compare how Kamen Rider Black becomes Kamen Rider Black RX with his yellow Roborider Form and Blue and Orange Biorider Form to how before a Peacock opens its tail feathers, it's mostly green, but when it shows its tail feathers, that's where the colors are.
So, my theory is that the Kujaku Vistamp is likely be based upon Biorider. Not only is it a Showa Rider, which the color of the Eco Armor (the Marble-Colored main body of the Vistamp) indicates, the color scheme is right to be based upon Biorider, the Fans recall the Revolcane and the Bio Blade, and the fact that Black RX's Base Form is a Dark Green which changed into the Blue and Orange like a Peacock opening its feathers.

That's a point in favour of his death -- Premium Bandai belts have historically been minor and/or quickly outclassed in the show; and are a limited run intended for adult collectors. The main things they'd be worried about selling are the things actually on retail shelves, the normal DX belts; that's their bread-and-butter and hence the owners of those are the ones that are unlikely to ever be killed off.

Oh that's actually super neat and way more interesting than Evil's gimmick.

lol you're so oblivious as to how this actually works

historically speaking that's what makes them sell

Sakura/Jeanne's demon's name is romanized as Rabukofu, written in Japanese as ラブコフ, which is cobra written backwards and 'fu' attached at the end. And apparently it is WEAK AS HELL. :lolol
I can picture Takeshi Kusao, Tomokazu Seki, or M.A.O voicing this character. Or maybe Tessho Genda could bust out his Gorisaki voice and make us laugh.

Toy etic sentai plush characters from 80s-90s homage

oooof Live Jackal does not look good they should have at least given him something that fits the Live aesthetic like say Agito/Petra/Blade/Kiva/OOO/Kong/Kamakiri/Build

Did anyone else think that the Kujaku Vistamp could be Biorider-based?

Biorider is a form, not its own rider so no.

Kujaku might be ZX or Riderman, the former more likely.

The Build Vistamp is Hyper Battle

Personally I think I prefer Live Jackal to Live Bat? Not sure yet though. I just really like the goggles!

YES YES YES BUILD FINALLY BUILD YES. Since it's an HBV I hope they do some absolute nonsense like mimicking Build's start-of-episode recaps
