So, pronounced like "Zettsu" according to the kana. Interesting.

You mean since it was preceded by 2 G Sentai and succeeded by 3 more?

It feels so early, but considering Toei is pre-filming now, perhaps this is a sign that the show is going to start filming in April like I've seen some suggest.

My money is 100% already down on some sort of sleep/nap or dream/day-dreaming theme though.

Or maybe, given how much attention is paid to Z in the logo, this is Kamen Rider based on Zorro? It's high time to give the rapier into the hero's hands. Although, in fact, all three assumptions do not contradict each other and may turn out to be true.I wonder if the story of Gavv will repeat itself, when all the information about the rider almost immediately hit the net? In any case, I will wait for news.
