[FairyKing]

I think what makes Grand Zi-O work is that it shamelessly embraces just how over-the-top and gaudy it is. There's nothing subtle about it, no pretense of practicality, it's just in your face "hey look at me I'm the King of Time with the power of all Heisei Kamen Riders! Bow before my tiny statues of past Riders, dramatic upward-pointing armor and golden EVERYTHING!" Like it doesn't even look like a king, it's more like a walking palace!

Also, I just noticed the Rider statues are in a very specific order on the body. Phase 1 is on the right (Zi-O's right), phase 2 is on the left, and within each phase the chronological order starts at the shoulder, goes down the arm then up the leg, to the hip, and then up the chest. Then the two anniversary Riders are on the center line, with Decade in the middle of the chest and Zi-O himself on the head.
