I hate everything about this. But, I will say it's still not as bad as Ex-Aid with those eyes and the weird face backpacks.

The chewy effect definitely adds personality to the belt and a sense of twist to the handle. The voice is very energetic and optimistic.

My main gripe with the costume actually concerns the matching pants. The white interior simultaneously attracts attention and creates a feeling of emptiness. It would be better to limit yourself to classic black or experiment with colors. And the cowboy’s poncho should have been made longer.

What a colorful, playful, kiddie motif... (flashbacks to Gaim and Ex-Aid) This series is gonna have a really dark plot, isn't it? I wonder if the monsters eat people...

Random idea, but with the idea of eating and the fact that both the Chemy cards and the belt ad show a whole bunch of each Gochizou instead of just one, it would be interesting if in the story the Gochizous weren't collectables but consumables, meaning there'd be many of each but after using one it was "eaten up" and Gavv had to somehow get another of the same kind before he could access that form again (obviously the toys would still be reusable). Perhaps they'd even be made from defeated monsters, with Gavv in an eat-or-be-eaten situation where he must devour his enemies to survive!

Ok, I doubt it'll actually be like that, but it's fun to think about, and consumable form-changing items could be an interesting weakness to give a rider if they were handled well.

*Looks at clipboard* Oh yes.

Let's hope they seriously don't go that path. We've had enough of that in Ryuki and the Hibiki summer movie.

That they're advertising just the Main Rider and the base forms makes me wonder if we're not going to immediately get a Secondary or multiple Riders from the get-go again?

I wouldn't be surprised if they go Revice with their rider count. I'm sure they have at least three prepped in the oven including Gavv, but wouldn't be surprised if they added a few more along the way. But I don't expect a lot like Geats or Saber.

So Gavv is inspired by Tokyo Ghoul? It seems to me that in this case there would definitely be plums (especially considering how close they turned out to be this year), just to test the waters and not conflict with restless parents. Plus, in terms of the show, it will be quite disappointing when a defeated monster, instead of a new toy, drops an already familiar one (especially for something like candy fur, which is already hated). But given that the rules are likely to traditionally change mid-show, one-off gimmicks may very well become a thing at some point.
Plus, then the crossover with Gotchard will turn from a team-up into a confrontation.

And for some reason I immediately remembered the Black Sun with its narcotic jelly made of people.

I would venture to guess that it will definitely not be less than 5. The main trio, an antagonist and one more for plot needs.
