I wonder if this will play out like it did for Kamen Rider Ghost. In the initial images and in the movie, his hood stayed up. I don't recall whether they altered this in his Drive appearance or saved it for the first episode of the show, but someone clearly realized that the hood being up wasn't working the way they wanted.

It's possible that they'll adjust Ex-Aid similarly, although I question the feasibility. With Ghost's hood, it was easy enough to put it down. Eliminating the irises for Ex-Aid would require altering the merchandise already in production. They might come up with a solution like different visors with the eyes focused in different directions. More likely, and more cost effective, would be for them to pay careful attention to how the suit actor moves and how they film it, so as to avoid the awkwardness.

Then again, they put him in those shoes, so... I dunno. (I'm still torn on the suit. I tend to like Rider suits due to design and sleekness*, but Ex-Aid's color scheme makes everything look painfully cheap to me.)

* - Clearly, the sleekness doesn't often extend to the belt.
