Kamen Rider SABER Rumours and Discussion Thread

Shame the openings of Saber still remain the same. Maybe not even proper. If I were to update them after the first two (+Kento was later).

Opening (Version 3): With Yuri. The swordsmen will be in the Southern Branch. Rintaro will have Mei in his mind, trying to reach him.
Opening (Version 4): Some of the swordsmen - Blades, Slash & Buster return to Touma's side. Along with Sophia's return. Yuri's scene after. We see the hooded Master Logos & the Southern Branch swordsmen, with Storious behind the master in shadows. Then we see Calibur, but it's Kento.

I'm not a terribly big fan of this new trope of making the final form a new rider or very least treating it like one.

I'm fine with it but if they revert back to how they did it in Heisei times I can understand.

Well, y'all got your final form weapon!

Seeing this suit in action and knowing the story around it are probably going to make or break it for me. But if nothing else, it's giving me a new appreciation for how good the base Brave Dragon design is.

I do like that it's doing a new thing, instead of just trying to be like Saber's previous forms but even more fiery/knighty/dragony, because there's only so much you can keep escalating in the same direction before it starts to lose impact.

My favorite detail is that it's "fiery and hot" in the way that the stars are "fiery and hot". If nothing else besides it being a repaint and a new helmet, I can appreciate it in what it's trying to do.

Wait, with Cross Saber being covered in stars, doesn't that literally make him a knight in shining amor?

TheRaizin · 05-28-2021, 07:28 AM

Some stuff about the Cross Saber toy and its sounds. Seems like it can form change.

Enchilada645 · 05-28-2021, 08:03 AM

Oh hello... more Alangina Saber? And potentially Lion Alangina?

gashatfreak · 05-28-2021, 08:08 AM

Dragon Lion Alangina? I've been waiting for this ever since the show started!

AlphaVector · 05-28-2021, 11:07 AM

Well that final form is... different?

Dunno, I really like my big bulky final forms, so just not for me. Feels almost like a cost-saving measure

MKDremare · 05-28-2021, 11:19 AM

How'd the sounds get leaked if the toy hasn't even been released?
