Most Rider shows with their gimmick/theme reach their full potential with what they can do during the show's run. Most fruits you could ask for were have a lockseed and associated Rider/form with it during Gaim. Or how Ex-Aid covers every game genre with Gashats and gaming hardware type with belts/weapons.

And while the watch motif specifically is near fully utilized in Zi-O (Only thing I can think of missing is a Sundial), the Rider theming is such massive potential for so much of the rest of the show that we'll never get to see. Another Final Form Riders, Another secondary Riders, Final form armors, the missing Phase 1 Heisei armors. Makes me wish the show ran another year so we could see way more. What we've gotten so far is awesome, but it barely scratches the surface. We've gotten all that in toy form with god knows how many watches, but a majority of that stuff won't appear on screen.

I wish I could compile a definitive list of things that we didn't see in Zi-O that we should have, and maybe more stuff they could have done.

This is one of those things I've always been curious about but never bothered to look up until now, but I just found out the six numbers (453145) occasionally written under Kamen Rider Decade's logo on stuff like his cards to give it that barcode look are actually spelling out his name, because D is the fourth letter of the alphabet, E is the fifth, etc.

I always assumed it was some clunky goroawase thing I could never crack, but it turns out it was way more simple than that the whole time. :lol

I can't believe it took me this long to realize that the Twin breaker is inspired by a drill bit. Or a screwdriver, I dunno, I'm leaning more towards screwdriver because that seems to fit in with the whole tool motif the Sclash driver has.

You could almost say they're... masked riders.
