I'm hoping to the man of the beginning they don't do that

Ah! They did it! One of the things I wanted to see during Super Hero Senki's leak on Revice! NEON PINK! I like this very much, yes.

Some things I do think would make it better in my eyes. Like, Revi's teeth (on the inside helmet lol) should be white. It may be white underneath, covered by the pink visor, but still. I think it'd do good in breaking up the face. And some more clear parts around the arms. Outside of those two, I like it.

Intentional or not, I like the inclusion of clear parts because it just signifies that George (with the help of his Daddy) is on his way to making Century years later. Or, seeing Century inspired him this look for this upgrade. It's a cool detail.

It's like Deadheat, but as a Final Form. I think it's cool! Vice even has his own Revice Driver now, so they have a more unified appearance.

I don't mind whether it's minimalist or extra, as long as it looks appealing and fits the Rider's design philosophy. Ghost Mugen Damashii and Zero Two are both awesome to me!

Regarding Reiwa Rider Final Forms, Xross Saber is honestly my favorite so far. The magical shade of blue is really eye-catching and I definitely appreciate the return of the Final Form weapon, which I'm disappointed that Revice isn't continuing. My only complaint is that using more books doesn't change the headpiece and Crimson Saber is a misleading name.

As long as it doesn't feel gratuitous. ALMIGHTY Saber was powered by all the world's stories and functioned as a white mage to Blades and Espada, which made it seem more unique. But if liveDevil Revice or whatever is unlocked with a cheap pep talk like RealEyezing Hopper and is redundant to Ultimate Revice, then I'm going to be annoyed.

Hongo was right. Century live on in the spirit of Kamen Rider and now they live on in their aesthetic as well!

I don't mind minimalist final forms but I guess I also kind of like when they're a little more...grandiose and striking compared to some of the minimalist designs, but that can come down to a matter of taste.

Emperor Form is one of my favorite Final Forms so...

Yeah this is mostly my sticking point with the Final Episode Special Forms.

This trend technically started with Build and kind of continued with Zi-O, but we're starting to sort of get into a true pattern of sorts with Reiwa as they solidified how it works. Like how after the true mid-season upgrade arrives, there's a clipshow.

Like, Realizing Hopper is basically just Rising Hopper but with the highest stats for the Zero-One Driver. Part of me makes it feel like they invented it purely so that Zero-One could stand next to Zero-Two without a big noticeable power gap. But it doesn't really have much going for it regardless.

Meanwhile Almighty Saber definitely eased my worries when we saw it in action. Because it's not just Brave Dragon but better, it's Saber accessing the power of all the Wonder Ride Book stories while also allowing Blades and Espada to use them. Which is why I was fine with it.

So if we do get LiveRevi DevilVice (Which let's face it, we're 3 for 3 on clipshow placements I would not be surprised if we do get it), I do hope they come up with an interesting gimmick that isn't just Rex Genome but better. I'd like them to lean into more crazy stuff like they did with Almighty Saber.

So we're probably also getting a Rider Final Boss then too...

Hey! The new Revice form looks good (thank Goji I didn't somehow jinx it). I like how it's like their base form wearing another suit, and like I figured, it's not a fusion of the two like Thunder Gale was.

Is it the best final form? Probably not, but it's certainly a good-looking form for both Revi and Vice.

… So, what’s the odds of Daiji becoming Giff’s vessel, either willingly or unwillingly, and becoming the final boss/Kamen Rider Giff now?

huh
a Reiwa final form I don't hate

I haven't taken too much issue with the final episode forms, I personally see them as just another way for the writer to justify having the base form show up and fight in the finale. Which itself is a trope(cliche?) that's existed in Kamen Rider all the way back since W fought the Energy Dopant.

Giffard Rex looks pretty neat, I dig the body horror aspect of all the zizzag lines going down the body implying Ikki and Vice are now covered in mouths.
