Yeah, I see the similarities with Ichigo's blue suit now. I guess it's logical to assume it'll be a fast form.
My guesses for the prototypes for the another two:
1) V3 and Black.
2) W and Zero-One.
Or some other combinations of these four. I think they took the approach to forms from Kuuga, and it would have been out of step with the general aesthetics of the grasshopper.
P.S. Although this whole style of agents will obsessively remind me of Shin from the 90s.

I am not the only one, but it does not seem like ai was used in the second preview, right? Either way, I'm all in on Zeztz, this looks way better than Gavv

Ah I see we're bringing back belts that won't shut the fuck up.

For that matter, there is no evidence that AI was used in the first preview. There are unconfirmed feelings and assumptions that smack of a witch hunt. And judging by this comment, some people did not even realize that the AI is suspected for background, not the rider:

I don't want to throw accusations or what not around, but that was my first thought, the head/face looks like it was generated rather than designed, but maybe I just need to see it more clearly...

Which in turn proves that assessing AI based on one's own impressions is unreliable nonsense. I already wrote that fines for plagiarism would very quickly teach AI and those using/creating them to sort their products. But now it seems to me that a false accusation of using AI should also be fined. Because this is slander and damage to business reputation.
Personally, I generally agree with this comment:

The person responsible for the backgrounds in the trailer took them from the public domain and among them there could be AI creations. Or there could be none. I saw photo wallpapers with strange unrealistic landscapes back in the nineties. In any case, until there is more compelling evidence than "it seems to me" it is fairer to assume that AI was not used.
Sorry, it's a sore subject. In fact, the topic was cleared of this crap quite quickly. In other places, it would have been chewed over for at least a week.
Returning to Zeztz, in this frame he looks very much like Ghost, what do you think?

I know that the frame is clumsy, but after everything written above, it would be wrong use AI to remove the inscription.

Huh? People thought the suit itself was AI-generated?

Zeztz's weapon. Looks like it has multiple modes, one for each form that was revealed.
