I think I actually prefer Gotchard's red skateboard/samurai form more than his teal grasshopper/steam train form. Like when I first saw that his normal form was another "animal + [insert other thing]" like previous Riders all the way to Zero-One, I was immediately disappointed. I think this will be a consistent thing for me this season, that I prefer the look of the ones that aren't "animal + [insert other thing]".

Actually I don't even think Den-O fulfills that require actually, since the armor is all just the parts being placed differently or opening up. Sword Form has Axe Form's chest as its back, Gun Form opens up Sword Form's chest, Axe Form flips Sword Form, and Rod Form opens up Axe Form's chest. The most original parts of Den-O are the visors since they're all different. And they all share the same gauntlets and boots, with the thigh armor changing color based on what form it is.

Actually now that I think about it, none of the Riders actually pass this sort of thing.

Kabuto, all of the Riders have a Rider Form that the armored Masked Form goes over.

Hibiki, only Hibiki had form changes, and he only went from purple to red with his non-final form.

Blade, the only change between Ace and Jack forms are that the silver armor turns gold, and they gain wings, while their Rouzers get additional blades (or a longer one in Blade's case).

555, Faiz's chest armor just opens up for Accel Form.

Ryuki, Blank Form just lacks the animal attributes and color.

Agito, they just change the shoulder armor and color, and add some new armor on the arm depending on the form. And they all have the same head.

Even Kuuga sort of doesn't get away with this, the helmet is still the same, just with different colored eyes, and the gauntlets and knee armor just change color.

The only one where all of the base forms are drastically different is like, Black RX.
