New image circulating of Zeztz' new forms, take with a grain of salt.

Some more images of Zeztz from a pop-up event. We get a glimpse of some of his form changes. It looks like they also have the DX belt on display. It appears that the "belt color change" will be achieved by piping light through a transparent strap.

A better look. https://www.reddit.com/r/KamenRider/...ilibili_world/

Something about the way the forms are presented in those images makes me feel like I am looking at a bunch of energy drink flavors.:lol

"Technocolor Stream" - I feel like this is going to be a shooting form. "Espirim Recovery" - For healing? Not really sure it'll have any kind of combat capability but maybe it has a shield for defense or something? "Paradigm Wonder" - Like, I dunno, Ultraman Miracle Type/Gamma Future? |
Gonna need to see these forms in full to get a better feel on them.
Green, Blue, Purple, classic form change colors. But if it's just changing the colors of the suit and the print on the chest... it feels a bit... too simple. Like you can say back to basics all you want, but even Kuuga had distinct differences in the armor for his forms. So I'm hoping that these will have something a bit more to them the further into news we get. |
I'm wondering if "belt" is a misnomer for this driver. Strap, maybe? Looks like the ends have a port for an actual across-the back strap.
I'm guessing that omitting a big, chunky piece at the waist will open up some new action-sequence possibilities. The drivers, especially since Fourze, have been increasingly impractical. I suspect the retail toy line will look a bit like the first wave of Wizard's, so... not as big an impact on the subsequent show as something like Level Up or armor-swapping. |
I like how despite the very unsubtle Ichigo homage, Zeztz doesn't actually seem to be grasshopper-themed in the way that Zero-One and Gotchard were

Also, since we're talking about a belt, I'd probably still prefer a strap that goes from the shoulder to the waist, rather than one that goes right under the arm. It's somehow too frivolous and makes you think of a courier rather than an agent. |
Finally, a good suit. Gavv's base suit was decent but man, all the other forms were just ugly. as for the AI in the teaser, my hope is that it was only used for the teaser for areas that are essentially not able to be done with conventional means such as the snow covered temple and on the side of the building, though with the whole dream theme, it does also make sense for things to be a bit messy. When used ALONGSIDE human work and not replacing it, AI can be good, but not when using it to replace the love a real person puts into their work. Either way, I'm in because I want more Kamen Rider here in the west.

Personal theory about the four forms for now (which I'm mostly on board with Frontier regarding how they might work in the show):
Physicam Stream: The initial "Au naturel" form good with hand-to-hand combat, the Kuuga Mighty/Kiva Kiva Form of the show. Technolom Stream: The weapons specialist form, personally I'm thinking this will likely be the form Zeztz takes on when he wants to go trigger-happy. Esprim Recovery: Assuming Esprim is a bastardization of the word esprit, this to me seems like a tanky form that can take a bazooka blast to the face and would keep on going as it heals quickly like Wolverine or Sabretooth from the X-Men. Paradigm Wonder: Like Frontier speculated, maybe a Gamma Future-like form, or any of Kamen Rider Double's three forms that involves the Luna Gaia Memory. The "trickster" form for a lack of better words, I guess. Off topic, props in advance to any grown-up who can manage to put on the Zeztz Driver and won't wait for a memorial edition or CSM. The straps look to be the same ol' plastic straps. :lolol |

His Driver reminds me of a Bop It toy.
|
Is that guy our main character? ...Is that a realistic gun in a holster he has on? Kamen Rider with a gun memes are back?

Edit: I also forgot, we had Russian Roulette towards the end of Gotchard lmao |
I can dig the simple forms. But I hope that this is only for this season. It would suck if each Kamen Rider from this point on follows the same incredibly simple aesthetic.

Not to mention that we've only seen a few Q1 forms. There is still potential for other forms/riders to shift the aesthetics. |
I am of two minds with Zeztz aesthetics so far. On one hand, it is interesting and kinda neat how simplistic and minimalist the designs for this season are, to the point that the form changes are mostly just a colour and pattern change. On the other hand, it does also feel a little jarring given how maximalist the past decade or so of Rider designs have been. I guess what I'm curious of is whether this will be a one off thing or will it be a trend for future Rider shows.
