Maybe not the dad since they say Aruto is only the second head of the company (so probably the grandad) , but yeah, it'd be weird to have the setup that only the president can use the belt if no one had used the belt before.

Pleasantly surprised to see the Valkyrie rumors were true. A female Rider in the initial lineup has never been done before.

(please don't kill her right away...)


Also, this is a great poster for the series.

i can't be the only one thinking that the trailer's opening sequence with images of all the previous riders flickering inside the word "HEISEI" is taking its inspiration from that of Marvel's

The RKF Zero-One looks very cool :D

Give the suit a base coat of hot rod red, paint the yellow-green a nice yellow-gold, and tint the red parts blue and we pretty much get Tony Stark.

I don't mind Aruto being a failed comedian depending on what his main gag was, it possibly means Toei gonna try shifting the comedic focus away from slapstick this time around.

I also decided to check Yuya Takahashi's twitter to see if he was excited about the show or anything.
Instead, he tweeted: This Christmas is... Wednesday https://twitter.com/yuya_takahashi/s...68706586337280

To which, Hayato Onozuka (Kiriya's actor) then goes: Huh,,,

So... start placing your bets now I guess.

Not again, I'm not strong enough

Gotta say I'm really enjoying what I'm seeing so far. I did enjoy the beginning of the trailer with the very Marvel Studios intro they had going for the Heisei word before it shattered into Reiwa.

I'm liking that Vulcan and Valkyrie are a duo team, the CEO aspect caught me off guard for 01 so this should be interesting to see.

But overall, good vibes so far. I also like that one of the shots in the trailer showed them at one of the usual stage show locations. Soon Stage Shows will be canon to Kamen Rider.

The alignment for our characters though is pretty great. You've got the duo of Terrorist Hackers, the Paramilitary Duo, and in the middle of it all you've got a Dork who became a CEO.

I'm excited to see how those dynamics change over the course of the series.
