Officially he was supposed to be hunting down Agito for much of the series, Hikawa was just too much of a bro to actually do it.

Let the Ghost Protocol/Call of Duty jokes begin.

Seriously though, I could as some have mentioned go for a tech type of Rider. I loved how Faiz' system worked, as well as Birth.

Now that you mention it, yeah I do remember that.

Wonder about the kaijin the rider will face.

And what sort of theme in the ghost rider will it go.

Well, Drive is a tech guy so I can see them going for a paranormal theme for a change.

I never knew how much I wanted this until I saw it.

Thinking about it.... Would be kinda cool if the rider was a 'Ghost Hunter' like Micheal J Fox in Frightners with his band of ghost friends conning people with hauntings.

If only it was a combination of Shaman King & Ghostbusters.

Thanks to GuSTaVaum on twitter we have some brief translations of toy items related to Kamen Rider Ghost!

- Ghost Icon
- GanGan Saber
- Ghost Driver

Well, the saber and the driver seem pretty obvious and/or self explanatory as to why they're there, but what in tarnations is the Ghost Icon?

I'm gonna guess "Icon" refers to this years' collector gimmick. Some kind of totem that powers the Driver & weapon maybe?

Yeah I think the Ghost Icon is the gimmick too. What's GanGan mean?

The sound of a large bell or scolding voice.

Interesting. I can't wait for pictures to start surfacing.

I could see a Bell sword or a screaming sword then.

Actually, it doesn't have to be a scolding voice. It can be any loud and intense sound. In the opening to the Sailor Moon toku, it was used as a motivational sound for giving your best at fighting in a tough situation.

But considering the literal meaning many of the weapons had, it will probably be the bell.

Fuck bells.
Megaphone sword.

Considering this might be folklore... Bells.

Maybe an idea I had will pan out: the icons represent a different spirit l'm calling it samurai, knight, cowboy/gunslinger as the starting icon's

Something is nagging in the back of my head about icons in Shinto religion, and I can't recall what it is. But this series is likely to be mask-deep in Shinto religion practices.

....so basically Den-O?

Yeah pretty much.

Another thought I had: What if the icons are yokai and the enemy are oni?

Latest rumor says "eyes". ("Gan" as in japanese "Eye")
"Eye" "Eye" Saber.
Ghost "Eye"con.

Knowing that Toei loves stupid puns, I'm afraid that might be what they did here. x,D

Makes me think the driver will have a face on it... maybe a skull?

*sniff sniff*
I smell collabo

Maybe we'll get ghosts who hang around like the Imagin.

Oooh, I love the puns as much as Toei does lol.

and ON FIRE!!!

'Gan'con is a pun of 'guncon'. :lolol
You know, those controllers people use to play Time Crisis, House of the Dead, etc.
I love it. :)

According to a new batch of 2chan rumors Kamen Rider Ghost will have a costume that that's primarily orange and black.

Kinda like Halloween....


I dig it. Orange is a color you don't usually see for a main Rider. Of course, I say this after we just had a series with a guy based off of a literal orange....

hashspook2taggy

What if the general theme of the series is Halloween with Ghost having a design based on a jack-o-lantern then. It would allow for monsters based on western and eastern cultures to be used for the enemy...

Correct me if I'm wrong but Rider series usually premiere around October right? It would be super fitting.

Gaim and Drive both have aired in October, other shows usually air in late September, post Decade. Though if he did have a jackolantern form, maybe have like a Turkey, Easter Bunny, Rudolph, and others for the other holidays.

Destiny themed pumpkin head helmet incoming.

Nice! Halloween colors are the best!

Wasn't that Kiva's helmet design?
