It's already been talked about but I'm betting that the next rider won't have a "5" motif, due to the fact that Kamen Rider Faiz, aka 555 is already the "fifth". Then again, what do I know.

The speculation is that it will be "magic" themed, like Wizards, and calling it "Kamen Rider Vzard" ... the V being pronounced "W" and the V also standing for "5". I dunno. Alllllll speculation at this point till we get a trademark.

Latest bit of rumor over at HJU is that the new Rider will be announced on July 12th and he has a cape.

My Rider knowledge is shallow, so correct me if I'm wrong, but a Rider has never had a cape before, right? (EDIT: Scratch this, forgot about Knight).

Anyhow, this might tie in to the magic theme that Kickback has mentioned.

there have been so many rumors, some stupid, some weird and then there isone of a ninja themed one (http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...25825688_n.jpg) which seems to be the BEST looking one! god i hope this is the one

Unfortunately, that's just a fan drawing based on some design rumors. It's a pity, as that looks pretty cool.

Eternal had one too

I hope its a ninja theme and not some stupid 5 item gimmick like theyve been doing

Kamen Rider's magic # is 4.

Kamen Rider Fourze has 4 slots on his Fourze belt.
Kamen Rider Fourze has 4 "states" (Electric, Fire, Magnet, Cosmic)
If you add every form in Kamen Rider Fourze (including movies), you have a total of 8 Riders (KR Fourze base states, Electric, Fire, Magnet, Cosmic, Double-Rocket, Meteor, Meteorstorm) ... and divide by the number of riders (2) and you get ... 4!
If you look at the current KRC who are students and not graduates, teachers, trial members, or riders ... you have 4!
If you include graduates and trials ... you have 8, which 4+4 equals.
If you include KRC students/graduates/riders (and not trials and teachers) ... you have 8!
Each "Zodiart" has 4 stages ... first stage, an overdrive stage, Horoscope stage, and their ultimate form ("Supernova")

I could keep going but I won't. :)
