To be fair they are more fansites more than professional news source. Oh will since Ukiyaseed (Orends Range) doesn't report on this they might as well be fake.

According to Nihon_Hanguk on r/kamen rider: https://www.reddit.com/r/KamenRider/...iders/eq9lsry/

Kamen Rider "Zero-One" (but probably not the real one) uses Job Boxes and the Job Driver. The Job Boxes are based off different jobs and items associated with them.

While they weren't able to decipher the name of the base form, Zero-One's first form is "Rocket Pencil Businessman", the forms that come after it are just called "Dai-San" and "Dai-Yon", and his first powerup is "Mannen-Hitsu Businessman Suit" which is based off a fountain pen.

Zero-One's rival/non-rider is "Wolfessor" who uses the ReviYasanKnuckle. According to Nihon_Hanguk "__-ya San" is Japanese for "__store", i.e. Sushi-ya San is a sushi shop/seller.

And the secondary, who I guess is the one in blue on the fourth pic, is Kamen Rider "Zero-Two" (no, not the one from Darling in the FranXX) who also uses the Job Driver.

Lastly, and on a completely unrelated note to the translation. While we did get the official teaser showing Zero One's collectables as a silhouette of a "Insect Card". One of the commenters on reddit did bring up the idea "What if the official teaser isn't showing a silhouette of a card, but the silhouette of one of the Job Box's sides?"

Just so we are on the same page, that is all from the scans SengalBoy shared with us previously.

I'm pretty sure they're just overthinking this one, it was probably just meant to be Leivathan or something. Though I guess with (even fake) Rider, punnage potential is not to be underestimated.

Thanks so much! It's great to see the amazing wordplay with these forms (even if it's fake).

I also just realized that if Wolfessor would be hunting the Kamen Riders, he would be a job hunter. Even more brilliant wordplay.


Also one last aspect I would like to point out is that irregardless of the legimatacy of the scans, these would amount to roughly four pages of a catalog. From what I could find, it seems that both Build and Zi-O roughly had about 8-9 pages (including the cover page). The only things missing would be the page regarding the action figure line, DX images and release schedule, and perhaps one page showcasing the primary Rider's base form.

While it certainly does not help out with the authenticity, it's just something I thought I would point out.

Also, that is an amazingly good point. It would make sense for the cube items to have some sort of rail to slot into the Driver, so the silhoette being a side view would make sense.

I would also like to point out that just a week or so after Zero-One was trademarked, rumors popped up regarding the theme being "Business VS Business," which does help point to this being more on the real side, but there is always the possibility that this was based on the rumor. That being said, if this is fake, then the artist needs to be given a job at Bandai, considering that in roughly three weeks or so he put together an entire Kamen Rider toyline and constructed artwork in the exact same style as the regular catalogs. That takes insane talent (IMO).

Dangit man, Toei loves their puns. That alone makes it seem likely lol.

I LOVE these but, IMO they look a bit too involved to be real, there's way too many and too wildly different. Aesthetically, they look more like the Chinese style toku, which tend to be more ornate. But, you know, just my opinion. If real, Zero One will at least look amazing.

[Agentjx]

I think the forms will be numbered. He's the 30th rider to not be movie-exclusive and with the need to be more subtle anniversary-wise compared to Zi-O, this seems plausible, and it plays right into the name: Zero-One.

My instincts tell me that they're real, but who knows?

These aren't the first fakes of these caliber. A catalog-like fake was released last year.
