Okay, that sounds like fun.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I really like have multiple Riders to choose from in the beginning of the show.

...What the fuck does that have to do with fruit or samurai?! The main character should be a cook or a chef if it's fruit themed. If the focus is dancing, that should be the theme instead of fruit. Damn it Toei, pick a theme and stick with it! Thankfully we have 5 riders this time, so hopefully they won't all be dancers.

She's not holding a Lock Seed, she's probably just the support character and the actor of the 5th rider just hasn't been revealed yet.

I'm just saying that we probably shouldn't assume that she's a Rider yet. I've gone to a few different websites, and none of them say that she's Griton (in fact, they only mention her as Gaimu's best friend). It's only here that I've heard people say that she is. Heck, even the OP didn't say that she was Griton. We're just assuming so because she was in the same position where Griton was in the non-transformed photo. I'm just going to believe that Griton's a mysterious Kamen Rider who'll appear when the others need him to until we get more information so I won't be disappointed when it turns out that Griton's a guy.

Exactly, she's not holding anything. That's just her fingers in the photo, nothing else. Like I said, we're just assuming that she's Griton because she's in the position where he was in the photo.

Griton's shoulder pads do look like tits, so maybe it confirms it's a she :p

Griton kinda looks like a steam train.

All these guys really look like anything but fruit, except maybe bananaman's shoulder's.

Please dont be so sexist. Seriously, have a little class when referring to a woman.

So is Wizard going to air until the last Sunday in Sept? Wouldn't that make it like 53 episodes?

A sample of Shonan no Kaze's work.I can see it working.

Its been anounced by the production staff that Wizard will have 51 episodes leaving several weeks in between the shows. Current speculation is that Kamen Norida will fill the gap since Toei just filed a trademark for it a few weeks ago.

That royally sucks x . x

It's working for me. I haven't eaten a fruit, unless you count Peach Greek Yogurt, in over five months that wasn't orange Kool-Aid. Now I have oranges, grapes, and the roommate is teaching me how to make coconut shrimp!

OOO.. Why hate Oranges? They're JUICY!

No, Wizard is 51. Something else will air in between. We don't know what yet.

First post updated with more details. At the moment Griton is the only one without a confirmed human identity; its possible Griton may be female but the woman in the photos but its just as likely that is Kota's sister or another dancer from Team Gaim.

I'm really liking this fruit salad, I love Gaimu and Zangetsu look, specially on that ridiculously awesome poster. The whole Corporate vs Artistic (dancers) thematic sounds cool.

Also I love fruits and I cannot lie :lol

Seems the four of them use the same belt type. That's cool, but it's suprising that bandai didn't try to milk them, by giving them different belts.

Dude I might LOVE the color, but Im with ya there on the fruit :lol I dont even like orange juice :lol

Even more sexist would be to say she can't be a rider because grape and melon are already taken :p

Norida?

There you go

I have no idea why saying those shoulder pads look like boobs is sexist but fine cool whatever.

Pretty sure it was the fact that you said "It must be the female".

That aside,I think her suit looks male because wasn't there a talks of the rider suits themselves coming from a different dimension? So maybe she has the Coconut lock,but its a male suit.

Oh yeah that was something called a joke.

I'm pretty saddened that people think I was actually making a serious statement there.

Well saying they looked like "tits" is incredibly insensitive. So how about we all clean up our language just a little bit here and be a bit more respectful? If you cant see why that statement was sexist I'm sorry, but it is.

That right there adds so much more variety.

Also, Yggdrasil could tie into the fruit theme. Yggdrasil is a tree in Norse mythology. Tree...fruit. Yeah, they probably created the belts. There might be 4 more Riders down the line since Yggdrasil is tied to the 9 worlds of Norse mythology. Just a thought.

I'm sorry if I hurt that suits feelings.

Now this, this peaks my interest!

I think it was how you used the word "tits."

And IMO, Ryugen's suit looks more feminine than Griton's. Maybe it's the purple grape motifs in the green base suit with golden trim. But hey, maybe the source of this year's powers only gives men Lock Seeds and Griton steals a Coconut Lock Seed to prove women are just as capable as men. Though, I'm not sure how often Japanese kids shows do that "Girl Power Plot" that Western kids shows love to do.

And Yggdrassil's roots are gnawed on by a dragon named Nidhogg. Plot point?

That's a really cool idea, and I'll probably end up dissapinted if it doesn't happens.

Also just realized Gaimu has a orange slice sword :lolol I need toys right now.

Thinking about the break dancing angle, I'm going to be really bummed if there's never any sort of crossover between Gaim and Den-O Gun Form. Even if it's just a net movie.

If they start naming the Monsters after Norse gods,this will be my most favorite rider series ever.

That's because Ryugen's human form is more feminine than Philip. :p

Yeah, Japan's not going to do that anytime soon.

They made KR Odin

It has nothing to do with the suit. You know there are female members of this fandom and this community right? And when you say things like that its incredibly insensitive and off putting. Please just think before you say something like that. We want this to be an open community for everyone.

My train of thought exactly. I'm not gonna judge right away...but I hope its damn entetaining. Wow..I wonder how that pitch meeting went..."And for our next series...the theme will be..FRUIT!"

Just stop it right now, Toei!

A dancing, fruit-themed, reggae-tuned, samurai helmeted rider? Just check all of my "That's cool" boxes why don't you? I'm excited to see what this show has to offer.

Fruit, Samurai, Deadbolt Locks, and Norse Mythology?
You bet this will be awesome. Think of other warriors with Lock Seeds!
A strawberry Ninja
A peachy Pirate?
A kiwifruit Spartan?
A pomegranate Shaolin Monk?

THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES!

Odin's a guy. Japan is not going to do a "Girl Power Plot" in Kamen Rider.

If they make a villain named Loki,all I have to ask then is when will the series come out and why not now?lol

So what? I made a joke saying the pads look like boobs, how is that insensitive? Whose feelings am I hurting in this scenario you've made in your head? I didn't make a joke at the expense of women at large 'why give a woman a Driver? We all know they can't drive!' (now I have :p AND YES THAT WAS A DELIBERATELY SEXIST JOKE AND NO IT DOES NOT EXPRESS MY OPINIONS OF WOMEN) so if I've somehow turned people away then I apologise but I dunno who the hell would be turned away by that, except those who are way too young to be on a forum anyway.

I read a different quote, thought you were talking about the Nordic thematic, my bad :o

What does Bart's battleship from Xenogears have to do with this? (Smartass :D JUICY!)

You are now my new best friend :lol JUICY!

Yes, I am now finishing posts with JUICY! So look forward to that for next few weeks :lol

That's just peachy...

It's JUICY!

Oh yeah, they've done Nordic stuff before, though normally in name only. "Yggdrasil" appears in Japanese fiction all the time and it's isn't always related to the myth.
