It's more of a Zero-One and Jin Flying Falcon type of deal, right? Same source but different outcome. It could be that there are multiple numbers of the same gochizou existing kind of like how Hibiki didn't just have one of each disk animal. If not, maybe Valen jacks it from Gavv somehow during the show or Chocodan says Gavv has shitty aim and ditches Gavv for Valen. :lolol

The cake form is a lie.

We will know if it's a Garren reference when Premium Bandai announce the Kara Miso Gochizou.

Since there are already different variants of gummy, I presume there will be others for chocolate as well. Like milk for Gavv and dark for Valen.

This means that a month after Valen`s debut, the female rider will receive a variation on the white chocolate theme. If so, then after Saber, the season of swordsmen, we will have a season of shooters.

So Gaav and Valen both have chocolate shooter forms?

I'm pretty sure it's going to be like 01/Jin Flying Falcon, where they both use the same item, but with different forms depending on how it's used.

Yes, which is what I'm assuming right now as well.

I'll be dissapointed if we don't get a whip-using form based on gummy worms.

I'm curious why do people think will be head writer...?

Not who do you want it to be, but who do you think is the most likely?

Personally with the rest of the staff I'd say Yuya Takahashi has a shot even if it does feel a bit soooooon for him to come back... However, I also wouldn't be surprised by Minato Takano or Akiko Inoue... or someone totally new to rider/toku lol

But beyond that I'm not sure who else feels like a "safe bet"

So, would do other people think?

The fact that they're hiding who it is until the press conference tells me that it's someone Toei believes will draw attention from fan circles. I unironically believe Toshiki Inoue is very possible, especially after how well Donbrothers was received.

Of course, seeing as even Keiichi Hasegawa, the man behind some of the best Ultra series, is languishing as co-head writer of Gotchard... I don't really know if it matters who's writing it. Bandai's excessive demands of how many toys must be introduced every quarter is severely hindering the overall writing quality of Kamen Rider.

But then The Outsiders will drag on until 2068, when So Okuno plays Ohma Zi-O.
