Kamen Rider Build May Scans Online- New Rider Revealed!
 

It's a very very Mad Rogue...

I hope it’s Utsumi!

And its likely that rogue got an upgrade but grease got shafted...huh

Well this puts a kibosh to the idea that Mad Rogue would be Gentoku's new form. Given who they are implying to be Mad Rogue's user, the circumstances for that actually do make a bit more sense.

I still wondering why Sento used Hazard Forms again after he has Full Full Bottle?

Agreed. Grease really needs his upgrade sooner than later.

Mad Rogue's suit is alright, but Rogue's Croc form will still be my favorite, along with the henshin sound.

It seems like they're really trying to hold off Genius form as long as possible with these scans.

Had a really interesting thought. It's too bad Kyuryuger's batteries wouldn't work with the Pandora Box.

Yep, Mad Rogue is Utsumi. If you see in Scan 8, he has his hands to his face in a similar fashion with characters with glasses.

What is Kamen Rider Saga doing there? :lolol

Isnt Grease getting a new weapon? I guess that would be his upgrade? xD

Yeah, I'm thinking Mad Rogue is Utsumi. I suppose it could be Gentoku, but Mad Rogue seems like an upgrade for Night Rogue and NOT Rider Rogue, and Utsumi is the current Night Rogue (though he doesn't use it outside of the web-series and that one episode a while back).

Plus I feel like Utsumi has had too much screentime and development to simply be "That guy that develops weapons for President Nanba".


On top of that, I doubt Nanba would give Gentoku an Evol Driver after he's already proven to not be 100% trustworthy, and I doubt Sento would give Gentoku an upgrade form before Kazumi, unless Rogue somehow loses access to his powers and he needs new one.


Plus why even bother hiding his identity when he's clearly based off of Night Rogue...unless it's not Gentoku.

Mad Rogue reminds me of G3 from Agito in some way. The suit is okay, but not that great IMO. It would be cool if it's Utsumi, because the character deserves more screen time and if Gentoku isn't Mad Rogue that means he gets to keep his sick Lacoste suit.

Also, on the topic of Grease: I'm glad he isn't getting a new form. The one he has looks great, and I love that we can have a Rider who simply gets stronger by fighting instead of form-switching. Although Build always makes an effort to link a new form with some sort of growth, in the case of Banjou especially, I think they did well with Grease just getting stronger without needing a new form.

Kind of liking the Mad Rogue helmet. The eye shape is cool. Looks insect'ish to me. And I do like my Riders to remind me of bugs.

No, that was a disproved rumour.

I just noticed the bottle motifs on the helmet are a 90 degree rotation of the Build's helmet motifs.

Build has the Organic bottle represented on his left eye and the Inorganic bottle represented on his right eye. Mad Rouge has a Bat design on his forehead and Engine blocks as his mouth plate.

As for the rest of his design. I'm mainly surprised by the all the white they added in, it doesn't look too bad in contrast to the black and the violet. But didn't the Mad Rouge images from the Q3 scans show his shoulder pipes were silver?

Man, I was a little on the fence with Mad Rogue, but seeing the suit has changed my mind. It looks amazing.

I really hope Mad Rogue is Gentoku. It makes sense from a story standpoint considering the fact that it's been shown that Gentoku is willing to work with anyone to achieve his goals, and seeing as Evol is fighting against the Nanba forces, it would make sense if Gentoku joined him.

Also, it doesn't make much sense to me from a marketing standpoint to name one Kamen Rider "Mad Rogue" and the other Kamen Rider "Rogue." After all, they could have easily called Cronus "Chronicle Genm" and it would have still made sense from a story standpoint, but not for marketing. Plus, Utsumi has only been Night Rogue in one episode (in disguise) of the actual show and two parts of the Special episode. Considering the fact that Utsumi has also become Hellbros, I doubt that it means that Utsumi is the Night Rogue Representitive now. Then again, I'll probably be proven wrong.

On one more note, I've seen some people online state that Mad Rogue is Utsumi because of his glasses gesture in one of the pictures in the scan. Firstly, Mad Rogue's right hand is just open in front of his face, not really doing the "pushing up glasses" gesture. Secondly, Utsumi actually did the "pushing up glasses" gesture as Hellbros, and it was with his left hand and never had the "open hand" gesture in front of his face.

Again, I'll probably be proven wrong soon though.

EDIT: Also this https://i.pinimg.com/236x/14/8c/30/1...bf5af6fd53.jpg

Honestly, it's hard to tell. I think it's white but looks somewhat silver.

Thing is, these scans also confirm that Gentoku is properly joining the good guys, explicitly because they're joining forces against Evol. Working with (for) him would run contrary to his goals. He wants to rule Japan, while Evol plans to destroy the Earth. They're not exactly compatible motives

And the glasses gesture is not the only piece of evidence (though I'll note Utsumi has done so with both hands, if not in suit). The scans keep his identity secret, but let know that he's somebody smart. They also have a couple of lines from him and these are the real giveaway: Mad Rogue uses "watashi" (as Utsumi does), not "ore" (as does Gentoku). None of it is anything like solid proof, but altogether it's very suggestive.

You're probably right. Although it stills confuses me that Bandai would want to market two separate Rider with such similar names. Also, it kind of confuses me that Utsumi would want the Earth destroyed as well, given that he works for/ brainwashed by Nanba, who've stated that they want to take over the world, not destroy it. Guess we'll see eventually.

This is starting to sound like a retread Ex-Aid. An earlier big villain (Gentoku and Dan) joins forces with the good guys, while not abolishing his evil ways, to fight a really big villain (Evolt and Cronus)

That's been Kamen Rider for the past few years to be honest. Heart and Necrom also did this.

Has it been confirmed that Mad Rogue is working with Evol, because they might not be necessarily working together. Plus, they can take Utsumi's character in a number of different directions since we still don't really know that much about him other than he "seems" to be loyal to Nanba.

To be fair Gentoku's goal to rule Japan is out of his fear that Seito or Hokuto would invade Toutou so that he could bring peace to all three nations. It's doing the wrong thing for the right reason which kinda fits with how every major player represents something of war

Hmmm...it looks like Mad Rogue is fighting alongside Build and Grease in some of the photos. Wonder if this means Gentoku became a good guy? (Although not actually good, like Genm.)

Um...the photos and the text on the scans imply that he's fighting against them.

Perhaps so but in Build's defense, Gentoku joining forces with the rest of the Build crew makes a heck of a lot more sense than Kuroto joining the Ex-Aid crew.

I think at this point Namba is still in the "we want to open that box, damn these consequences" part of their plan. They may not even be privy to Stalk's true motives, but as Mr. Titan said, it's not like they trust him anyway. It's possible they think they can beat him afterwards...somehow.

I like Mad Rogue. I also like the idea that Mad Rogue's an upgrade to Night Rogue, whereas Gentoku using the name Rogue is more a sign of pride and/or just him doing it because he's associated himself with it for a long time.

Guessing entirely.

But looks like Mad Rogue might be Rogue after he loses to Evol and then gets recruited by Evol.

Which would suggest Evol is BloodStalk to bring the story back around to how it started in their dynamic but in a new way with the power dynamics altered and more apparent in that "Evol above Mad Rogue" way, instead of the Blood Stalk and Rogue way where Rogue thought he was in charge but Stalk was really using him instead. Which seems to suggest further character growth of Rogue between the flashback special to the start of the series in how his ego keeps trying to push him to feeling in control and in charge, but he's really never been and Stalk has been using that ego to manipulate/control him. Which fits to the Evol over Mad Rogue dynamic as Rogue having to keep swallowing his pride as the series seems to keep doing to him by trying to force him to put that ego in check. But I could also see them building up to a Night Rogue vs Mad Rogue too and trying not to over hype that as yet to keep it a surprise. But I could also see Evol giving Rogue the Mad Rogue gear after destroying the Rogue gel system. As a kind of proving his superiority thing since even with equal gear before, BloodStalk was still more powerful/used it smarter.

But I could also see Mad Rogue being someone new that sends Rogue on a downward spiral of despair by getting defeated and having his "fake Rogue" power revoked to further the blows to his ego, and force other character developments as that ego caused no one to be willing to create new gear for him and has isolated him and forced him to change as a person.

Either way, loving the Evol form designs with how his torso stays as is. Looking forward to how this story plays out in the show!

That "Rider" bottle seems to have some interesting potential to it too for other matches.

The scans confirm Stalk is Evol, yes.

It also basically confirms Mad Rogue is Utsumi, not Himuro.
Mad Rogue is noted to be someone highly intelligent and use the pronoun 'watashi' (like Utsumi does, whereas Himuro uses 'ore'). He's also shown doing Utsumi's glasses pose.
Meanwhile, Kamen Rider Rogue is shown fighting against Evol, together with Grease, Cross-Z and Build - and Himuro has been set up for a redemption arc for some time now.

Yeah, after further inspection, it seems more likely that Utsumi is going to be Mad Rogue. Which is a shame, as Utsumi is a strange mixture of Cardboard Cutout and Micchy during the middle of Gaim. Also still baffling from a marketing standpoint, but oh well.

Actually though, it makes me wonder if Utsumi and Gentoku have any relationship with Mars, as they both could handle the transteam gun, and Utsumi could even become Hellbros. Gentoku is also especially strange, given that he randomly could use the transteam gun, and has been highlighted throughout the series to have been majorly effected by the Pandora Box.

Now that I've gotten at least a day to think about it, I'm actually kind of happy that Utsumi might Mad Rogue if not for the fact that we might get more focus on him. So far, it feels like Build hasn't exactly know what to do with Utsumi after his "death". I mean, they played sympathetic angle with him supposedly regretting the choices he made in the scene before he "died". After that his characterization has been all over the place. He's now completely loyal to Nanba with the whole backstory that he was a Nanba Child which doesn't entirely gel with the scene earlier of him regretting his life choices. We've seen scenes of him enthusiastically exercising his higher position of power over Gentoku, an aspect of his personally which may have been hinted at earlier in the series but it came off more as dissatisfaction of his position rather then straight up envy.

Really the most consistent aspect about him is his intelligence, being only second to Sento as far as smartest character in Build. Which reminds me of what someone brought up as the potential origin of Mad Rogue's name. Mad Rogue i.e mad scientist.

The Transteam Gun was built by Katsuragi to help raise the Hazard Level of a Build Driver user. It has never, ever been stated or implied that you need a connection to Mars to use it - because you don't.

HellBro's is based off of BiKaiser from Heisei Generations Final, which was created by a friend of Katsuragi's. Also nothing to do with Mars.

It was either stated (or heavily implied) that you had to have a high enough hazard level in order to use the Transteam Gun.

Also, while HellBro's is based off of BiKaiser, there's the whole scene with Fu Washio barely baring the power of HellBro's (and while it's never stated, I would assume that's why Rai Washio is never shown using HellBro's, as he can't handle it). Which is weird because in the special, Utsumi has no trouble using the HellBro's system, which would imply that there is some other element to him that him just being a scientist.

I really really really etc. like Mad Rogue's helmet. The design over all is pretty good, but that helmet is great.

Not mad at the design but I gotta repeat myself.

It's like seeing Gatack and Den-O Rod Form side by side again.

I’m still pissed that Saga doesn’t have an SHF.

Me too.
*pats back*
Me too.

Never explicitly stated and, if anything, the Transteam system seems to be straight up the weakest and thus most likely has the lowest requirements, if it does indeed have any.

Now, mind, who knows how the Nebula/Kaiser system works, because it's not me.

We know the Transteam System is at least a higher Hazard Level than the 3 baseline required for the Build system. Gentoku states as much in...I want to say episode 12 or 13.

If I remember correctly, the deal with the transteam system is that it has no growth. Its locked in at a set hazard level, unlike the build and sclash systems, which can raise a users level.

The Transteam Gun has a requirement of Level 3 - same as the Build Driver - this is stated in the transformation introduction video they did.

I...don't think that's actually true? I just rewatched it and they don't mention a number, Gentoku just says to raise your Hazard Level until you can use it.
