So much for the new protocol for protecting leaks. We had info early and almost all of it was true in one way or another. Outside of some names here and there. That being said it all looks cool. Zero gives off some showa vibes while standing firmly in the modern era. It’s like Ichigo, OOO, and Kabuto had a weird lovechild.
I prefer mystical themed Riders, but this tech based stuff looks really cool. So colorful and creative. A gun belt?! Briefcase weapons?! How could you not love that? Nice to (maybe) have a female rider from the jump as well. It’s a new day! So far my favorite part is the Mammoth form for Zero. It’s designed to be the obligatory large mecha/vehicle we have come to know since Fourze (I think), but it looks cooler than anything outside of maybe Wizard Dragon. It’s Kamen Dancouga! |

It feels like they're merging OOO and Build, specifically how the upgrade forms are a direct upgrade of base form like RabbitTankSparkling, as well as the phone bike.
Hopefully the show utilizes the bike often again. I forgot that Zi-O has a bike.

Oh, now this is just fantastic looking! Both a callback to the series roots while also being slick and modern!

I'm a little bit iffy on the helmets, the mostly blank faces don’t look all that good IMO, but man, everything else is stellar. I love the gimmick, it reminds me of Rouze Cards mixed with Gaia Memories, and the color-scheme for the main Rider rules. Plus, we finally have a new hopper Rider.
And Valkyrie has to be a female Rider, right? If so, that's super awesome to get one this early on. I'm totally down for that.

Honestly, wouldn't hold my breath for Valkyrie being a female Rider based on name. Like everyone's saying that since valkyries are females, than that must mean that Valkyrie is also, but you all have to remember that there was a Valkyrie Phantom in Wizard, and it was a he. So until the actual conference where they reveal information about Zero One, let's not go claiming Valkyrie's a female Rider yet. Remember what happened with Zi-O, where people kept saying that he was going to be a female Rider based on a curved chestplate and pink accents? Let's not pump ourselves up only to let ourselves down when it turns out Valkyrie is a male.

I'm very excited that we've got a main Rider design that's so sleek! I'm baffled that Zero-1's Driver isn't even an eyesore. (Then again, I think the Gamer Driver permanently skewed my perception of what constitutes a gaudy Driver.) I'm baffled that his first upgrade form actually looks like... an upgrade, without verging into ugly or silly territory. Looks like the helmet hits most all the repeating Rider elements: bug eyes, the gem at the center, the "tears," and antennae. Way less abstraction than usual, and yet the design doesn't feel like a lazy rehash of Ichigou. The briefcase weapons are so sleek it doesn't even look like modern Rider design. That cheetah form (Valkyrie?) - and the shape of the holders in that image - just screams Go-Busters to me. The timing on the phone-cycle is just bafflingly weird. Build was just two years ago! It was based primarily on a seemingly otherwise-accurate leak that got misconstrued. It said that Zi-O being a female Rider was something Toei had considered during the design process, and several people (myself included) mistook that for indicating that Zi-O would be a female Rider. |

So it seems that the progress keys flip out and then are slid into the belt/gun.
