The Zeronos suit I instantly fell in love with it. I like how Altair form is the rider form being more agile yet strong while Vega form feels like the heavy duty masked form in a sense. Which reminds me, this was our second green kamen rider to be of the bovine kind since Zolda(and our third green bovine hero if you include super sentai's Magi Green from Magiranger, Ohranger's green ranger had a green bull robot but his motif was not a bull so that does not count).

He's so cool.

Yeah, if I recall it was after this show he switched to stunt doubling and went to a agency called Takeshi Racing which mostly handles automobile-related stunts for tokusatsu. I thought he was wanting to be more of a traditional actor but seems like this was why. He later quit showbiz in whole to be a judo therapist but recently seems to have participated in Dogengers alongside Seiji Takaiwa and Katsuhiro Suzuki who played Hiromu/Red Buster and Mondo/Kamen Rider Quiz.

He is also in terms of suit color a polar opposite to Sword Form, red contrasting green and all.
