Gotta say, the man is talented. He was the cool and silent type in GogoV circa 1999, then came back as a blood-thirsty anthropomorphic piranha, and now he is what seems to be a maniacal fencer with a phoenix-motif armor. Now I want to see him play the goofy uncle-type hero in a future toku show. :lolol

Funny joe odagiri audition for GoGoV and he didnt get picked. Meanwhile, two of the csst mate became delta and amazon respectively. They should of done a akibarider parody show. Sentai should do a amazon gore horror level of show vice versa paying homage to the 80s cult/war aspect.

We already got a goofy uncle. The guy that played Naoya to juzo to caliber 1.0 might end up being the goofy uncle if he decide to show up again as comic relief since it happened to Dan and Thouser. Although he almost did full time pink movie v cinemas like GaGaSkull/Rito from kakuranger.

Meanwhile, magiyellow must really love toku and on good term with the staffs to come and go every other year as a guest and bg drop by as random cameo characters from time to time in both rider and sentai. He and caliber 1.0 was in the intro of the Gaim movie.

Any scans & silhouettes of new riders yet to come?

No, but the Official Kamen Rider Webpage just revealed the name of Bacht, Kamen Rider Falchion’s, sword. It’s the Mumeiken Kyomu, the sword of nothingness.

Mumeiken Kyomu (Unmarked Sword Nothingness)

That's an awesome name for a sword.

Okay wow I don't know why I am just now realizing this, but both Buster, Slash, and Kenzan's swords have very large spaces around the Wonder Ride Book slot which makes me think the mid season upgrade item is gonna be manga or comic book, something large and flat like a magazine.

Or, do their weapons just look like that to scale down to the DX toys?

They're scaled up. The ports for Ride Books are larger on the props then the toys.

He's not talking about the wonderride slots, but of the wide space around them. He's asking if the space around the slots is just done to keep in line with the engineering and design of the scaled down DX toys or that these wide spaces are left on the swords near the wonderride slot intentionally, to accomodate a new upgrade item released later on.

If they get a larger book that takes up their whole prop's space, then the same book wouldn't fit on the DX toys.

More tv spots than a marvel movie . Wonder if there's a real versus between the two shows as well as two 01 saved for the theatre experience. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6roozQAOjaI

Does Falchion give you Odin vibes due to the phoenix motif?

Weird how I'm much more excited for Jin's flying battle than I am for Zero-One and Zero-Two teaming up. I'm excited for both, for sure, but Jin hmmm...

A little, yeah...

Saber's possible movie form. Now, while it does look like it's obviously photoshopped, it could just be someone trying to make it as close as to what they saw in the movie.

Touma using Calibur's sword?

Looks more like the thing Touma's got a recolored version of is JaOu Dragon.
Kurayami has a serrated edge.

And yet, the belt...

Well, the Wonder Ride Books have had their own sounds before...

Touma's movie-exclusive WRB?

Emotion Dragon?

Yeah, that's what it looks like.

I think it's pretty cool how the three dragons in the book go red, white and black just like Saber's default form.

Anyway, I'm behind on the show so I'll catch up on 13, 14 and Espada Retsuden tomorrow.

So, if Brave Dragon is Red, and Jaaku Dragon is Black, where does the white dragon come from?

Jaaku Dragon is purple, not black. Odds are that the coloration of the Emotional Dragon Book just match Saber's base colors.

That's a good question. Maybe the white dragon appears in the movie.

If you check the right side of Calibur's suit, the dragon parts are actually black.

Emotion Dragon WonderRide Book will be out in March.

I love Kamen Rider Saber Emotional Dragon design. I think this movie Form looks cooler than Kamen Rider Saber Crimson Dragon :D

Oh that's a really cool repaint of the Shield Module from Fourze.

I really dig this a lot.

I swear that shield is a repaint of something I've seen before... oh, Fourze's shield module!

Anyway Emotion Dragon looks pretty cool. I know there was some Arthurian story involving a red dragon and a white dragon, so maybe that's where the white dragon comes from? But it's probably just to match the colors of his base suit.

I wished there was more changes going on the suit for a toy repaint.

His shield is Fourze's Shield Module.

I just hope the end credits of Saber winter movie will show us a teaser of what new rider(s) are coming/yet to come!

I know Saber's been pushing the whole 'friendship' stuff but seriously? 'Emotion Dragon'?

Okay, that's pretty damn awesome! My favorite form of Saber so far.

My shield module comparison aside, I suppose what I really like about this form is it's just a more fully realized Brave Dragon. Like it continues the Brave Dragon theme, doesn't really change up the base suit at all, but instead adds more armor and flowing cape parts to make it more complete.

It's a real nice simple but elegant design for our little 20 minute special. I think the only thing that might be awkward is how to the right the Emotional Dragon book is since it pops open and is fairly big.

It's getting out of hands how much toys and merch they're squeezing in this semi crossover movie. The tv spots so far hid it. See on Ig the v cinema driver for 01 metsubojinrai already leaked as well as other rider Id and poses. https://instagram.com/superheromaxid...=1ag0mqn7l1g1p

This is a thing Kamen Rider has been doing for years, though?
This is Kamen Rider Zero-One’s Summer Movie, just delayed, and there are always several new toys for the Summer Movie. Nothing was ‘hidden’ there, either, as we’ve known about the Eden Driver, Abaddon Riser and Hell Rising Hopper for months now.
As for Saber...well, with the pandemic, we don’t know what they’re doing. This could be a stand-in for Saber’s Summer Movie, or it could just be something extra they’re trying out...but it’s not like new forms and/or new movie riders are new. We’ve had them for the past decade and a half by now. As I’ve said, none of Zero-One’s toys were ‘hidden’ - we’ve known about them all for months, and Falchion since they started doing CMs. The literal only thing that they’ve saved for a surprise was Emotion Dragon. Furthermore, it’s not a crossover movie at all. It’s just a Zero-One movie double-billed with a Saber movie, like Rider Summer Movies often are with Sentai.

As for the Metsubojinrai Driver, that’s for something else altogether, so I wouldn’t worry about that. Kamen Rider Zero-One Others: Kamen Rider Metsubojinrai is (the first of?) Zero-One’s V-Cinemas, and has nothing to do with the movies.

With the Swordriver hilt just being a plastic brick that presses buttons for the actual sword, do you think Saber will be the first Reiwa rider and the first rider since Wizard to have a final form weapon? Seems pretty obvious that Bandai isn't going to stick with Rekka for the entire show.

Any sign of new riders coming soon?

The movies have passed.

Came to say exactly this! Emotion really feels like a direct upgrade to the base form the same way Shining Hopper (and to some extent 02) did to Rising Hopper, or even Kachidoki did in Gaim! "This, But More" is always one of my favourite design philosophies for toku upgrades so I am Loving this. Would gladly see it rock up in the show, however incredibly unlikely I know that is...

According to tweets.from those who've seen episode listings, one or more South Base riders will supposedly show up in episode 15 or 16! Can't confirm if it's a legit rumour though

Thoughts and hopes on what the Southern Base branch of Kamen Riders will be like? Quarter 2 is around the corner, so we're certainly getting new characters soon. I can't wait to see what's in store for us.

I think the reason Emotion Dragon works SO well is that design-wise, it's basically a 3-volume combo(despite the transformation trinket just being one book), yet it doesn't have a commit to a single color scheme. I love the idea of the 3-volume combos in the series, but the fact that Saber, Blades, and Espada all coommit to one color scheme kind of ruins it for me. It just looks a little too extra; to the point that I genuinely prefer all of their 1-volume forms. When everything is the same color, I find that I lose focus and don't appreciate all the little details as much.

Emotion Dragon works incredibly well because the middle and left parts actually match the color scheme of Brave Dragon. Even though the Brave Dragon side remains unchanged, it gives off the impression that the originally plain-looking black and white parts of Brave Dragon have been upgraded. I know it could never happen, but it would have been amazing to see Blades and Espada get something like this.

Something else that I really appreciate about Saber is the fact that Jaoh Dragon doesn't give Calibur a COMPLETE makeover. It just makes more sense this way, and is definitely easier on their budget since we know the suits they use are modular. This probably sounds mundane, but I think it's genius that both of Calibur's suits share everything below the chest. While we can appreciate Jaoh Dragon, it's nice to see that a lot of Jaaku Dragon is still there. I actually really hope that if Slash, Buster, and Kenzan get upgrades, they follow a similar pattern, because their suits have really great designs and ideas that shouldn't get completely shelved. I really don't believe that getting an upgrade or new form should warrant a completely new suit, at least for Kamen Riders that aren't the primary or secondary.
