Who do you guys think will portray Esu Ukiyo? Would it be the Junon Superboy winner like usual? Or would it be someone different?

Ooooo, I like his voice tbh. Does have a cocky tone but he sounds cool. Curious to see who the actor is and what he looks like.

Ngl these don't sound legit to me. Especially since it doesn't line up with what what we've seen people who watched the movie say about the belt sounds

I would call this noisy, and even if they skipped the standby, pretty long

as has already been said it also sounds A LOT like a Zero-One Jingle which makes it feel extra fan made... Plus since it sounds like text to speech that's another thing that's contradictory to the reported belt sounds with the whole "actual VA" thing

Though someone else on twitter who claims to have seen the movie says this jingle sounds "close", and it's always possible they used a short version in the film.... so what to do I know lol

(If it is legit it sounds kinda bad to me tbh...? Like in Zero-One having some text to speech was charming and thematic [and there they still hired an actual band to perform most of the gimmick and belt sounds]... But this just feels generic, noisy, and low effort to me... I could have made this exact clip on my laptop in like 4 hours or less, I'd expect a bit more from Bandai and Toei... also the bike sound is just really itratating, though maybe I'm only saying that because i have a headache rn)

Being the winner doesn't actually mean anything, Kentaro Maeda himself only placed in the Top 30 and no higher in the 2020 one.
In any case, Junon's offical Youtube account uploads video clips of the Top XX candidates in the contest speaking with no overlapping sounds, and timestamps with people's names that you can easily copy to google more about them. if you've got time to burn, parse through the 33-34th ones and see if any of the voices match up. I certainly won't be doing that, its a bit too much investigative work for me lol, esp since the chance of Geats' actor even *entering* that contest is too much of an unknown variable to give weight to it.

Wonder if Geats will give us an English speaking rider? And we haven't gotten a Black Kamen Rider who speaks Japanese ever yet.

Sounds fake to me. Firstly, the transformation speech sounds more like a Revice thing than anything, which is really weird? Secondly, knowing what we know about the gimmick, why would it sound like this?

The Desire Driver is not only a multi-Rider Driver, but a driver with a mix-and-match element? (I'd imagine the "crystals" in the Driver might influence the standby, similarly to how (iirc) the Sengoku Driver had like, 2-3 different standby jingles depending on the lockseed used) In any case, if if Geats' crystal gives him a unique standby....why would there be motorcycle noises within it? Sure, his base form's bottom half is a motorcycle, but auxilary forms gotta share the same jingle, I'd imagine they're all not (partly) vehicle-themed?

Thirdly...would Geats even need such a jingle? (Like I know it's the norm to have lengither/noisy jingles of Reiwa but hear me out lol) From people's descriptions, Geats can fight without his armor of one of his halves (iirc he starts off blank, turns on Magnum and fights a bit, turns on Boost and fights some more) There's probably going to be some kind of "Best Match!"-esque noise for the base Rider combo both being activated together with the right crystal ofc, but with the implication that Geats doesn't need to activate both to fight + will most likely switch top/bottom halves on the fly and quickly, why would the jingles even need to be this long? It's probably more akin to W's jingles if I had to guess,,,

I'm curious how they'll handle the female lead. Geats' manager?

Heads up: The jingle is fanmade, its original source is here. I'd wish people stop reposting people's fun speculative work in attempt to get clout from it, it just sucks,,

I don't know if I find Geats voice to be cocky or if it's just your standard "I want to win" tone. Especially being in a game/competition plot
I don't want to force with Ex-aid parallels but it doesn't sound more cocky than early episodes Houjou Emu being in his M mood.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions about his cockiness from that voice, but the guy is definitely in the same age range as most top riders. I wonder if we'll ever get a Hibiki counterpart again, or vice versa, a child as the protagonist? (I know that usually few people liked it, but the first pancake is always lumpy).

Or a fan, or just a friend who is worried that he got involved in this game. In general, there are many options.
