Gaim Jinba Lemon
 

From the Battle special DVD episode???

There's actually rumors that Kouta is given the Lemon Energy Lock Seed in Episode 17. So that could be a future episode thing.

So, Gaim 's Energy Arms forms are exactly what I expected, the fruit armor just transforming onto Gaim.

Also what the fuck is Ryoma Sengoku up to?

I honestly cannot tell what is on Gaim in this picture.

That face in the corner behind him doesn't really match the other Armored Riders. could that be the rumored "Knuckle" we heard about a few days ago?

Either that or it's a terribly deformed version of Gridon xD

What am I looking at, and why do I want it?

Someone put the poor guy in the microwave. :p

Love it! And I can barely tell what it is! :lol

But still, loving it.

I can't tell what it is, but I'm excited. :D

All I know is that I've got more Arms Change sets in my future!

Both it and Knuckle looks ok.

Kinda curious as to why Gaim doesn't have his own Orange Energy Lock seed, and that he requires a Lemon lock seed to become an Energy Rider. Though it is still unique, and neat that he requires the original sengoku driver to become an energy rider.

The Lemon Energy Lockseed makes more sense than the Melon Lockseed. Thought that was always an odd combo. You don't really think of oranges and melons coming together, usually.

Neat?

Because Yggdrasil only developed 4 types of Energy Locks for the energy riders that work for them to use. They had always planned to collect the Sengoku drivers back from the civilians. Why would they have created an upgrade for a person that was never actually supposed to receive one?

This is gonna be cool, now I must go drink lemonade and orange juice together in celebration! :lol

We really need a lime lock seed now to go with the lemon energy lock seed. Kamen Rider Sprite!!

I think the only reason we have a orange x lemon combo is because they're both citrus fruits.

.... Holy Gosei crapping Rockets... I take it back, that is the best looking damn suit in KR Gaim!

Hmm, it just looks kinda out of place. How is that based off of anything organic, let alone a fruit?

Lemon. But it fits the overall motif of a modern Sengouku Era War between warring states.

Lemon mode look AWESOME! Seriously that just looks freaking great. Yeah, it doesn't really figure the whole 'lemons are yellow' thing but I don't care. ME LIKEY!

I look forward to the eventual gushing review :lol

Oh wow... now that we have an actual look at it, I definitely can say I like it.

Whoa.

I knew that we would be getting a hybrid form for Gaim, but Jinba Lemon looks so cool! It's kitting too since lemons are believed to have hybridated from oranges and citrons.

What I really like is the pattern of lemon slices adoring the Jinba Lemon Arms. It also looks like while the Orage visor is reused the head seems to be a recolor.

It looks boss! Why can't next week get here sooner?

Whoa!!!!! Hold the train up! That mode just looks spectacular! I I I just want the figuarts of that now!! But seriously that looks awesome the toy sales will still go up and up and up if this continues. When this gets an AC it will have to be a new figure.

WOW, that is a beautiful suit! That looks terrific!

But it doesn't look like a lemon. Lemons aren't black and angular...
I also don't like how it just re-uses Orange Arms' helmet.

You completely glossed over how I also said: It fits in with the Sengouku Era motifs of the rest of the show. Plus, look at Shin Zangetsu, Duke, and the rest of the Energy Riders. Those don't exactly fit fruits, and Shin Zan's helmet looks like Zangetsu's original Melon Arms helmet.

I really think you're overthinking this.

I know how it looks like samurai armor, but it still doesn't look like a fruit. The Energy Rider on the other hand, do look like the fruits they're based on(show me a black lemon that isn't rotten or spray-painted and I'll take this all back).

And he still just has Orange Arms' helmet. Shin Zangetsu's is a different mold, but this isn't.

For me, it looks like a hybrid. He still uses the Sengoku Driver and not the Genesis Driver so appropriately the armor looks like it was cobbled together from various sources looking like a fruit/armor mash-up.

Yes, this. You have to remember he doesn't just use the Lemon Energy Seed to Henshin, he also uses his normal Orange LockSeed.

See Shock? The second image. Orange Lockseed. And I absolutely love the lemon slices in the armor :lol

But it doesn't look like a mash-up of fruit and armor.

I don't think that's a good enough excuse, because, Orange + Lemon =/= Black samurai armor.
Are you just suspending all disbelief because two lockseeds at the same time is something we've never seen before?

Huh, I guess he kinda has a fruit pattern that could conveniently look like either an orange or a lemon. I still don't like it.

Looking pretty good there Gaim, even borrowed Bujin's colored mouth. Makes me wonder if any of the other Sengokunites will be getting these armor upgrades.

I like the more muted color scheme it gives him. The black with new silver detailing like the head crest really sells this combo.

I suspended belief because it's a show where break-dancers become superheroes using fruit that turns into padlocks from another dimension occupied by Worms from Kabuto becoming fruit armor :lol
