How do you all see Geats be different, similar & comparable to 555/Faiz?
You got 01 and Kuuga being the first riders of their era, Saber and Agito based off of dragons & Revice and Ryuki taking the contract concept where the Ryuki riders make contracts and Revice riders making deals with devils/demons. Geats is a fox/kitsune while Faiz is a wolf in Orphnoch form. Bet we have some group almost like Smart Brain, even the Orphnochs & their Lucky Clover |

Faiz eats food for lunch and sleeps at night, and I bet Geats does the same.
(yes drawing parallels between shows is stupid) |

If we're talking dragons, then Saber has way more in common with Ryuki than Agito. Even having an antihero named Ren. There's really no sense in these shallow comparisons!
Will Geats eat food like a nekojita though?

Movie's not officialy out yet (will be in like 2 days), this description is from someone who alledges to have seen an early screening
Plus Japan has really strict piracy laws so we don't even always get cam footage from the films (I remember Zi-O's cameo showed up on bilibili but toei was getting every leak video taken down super fast on most sites) Earliest we could see a photo or some cam footage would probably be the 22nd or later (and as I mentioned whether we get any at all is up in the air) Its interesting that this is another rumour that lines up with the recent "leaked" suit, black suit, white armor... so either that photo is legit, it's a weird coincidence, or some rumour mongers are really latching onto the same fake pic |

So far, I see a lot in common with the Wizard. The same number of gimmicks appearing at once, the use of a gun in the main form and the theme of fire. Well, the last two, according to the cameo description. |

Speaking of which, will we ever get a cyborg main rider again, or is this concept hopelessly outdated? Of course, the opportunity to make it on the 50th anniversary of the franchise is missed, but there will be many more important dates and anniversaries.

Basically, with the advent of advanced medical technology and people who had to undergo surgery an obtain artificial limbs/organs to live, Toei decided to softly retire the idea of portraying people getting these artificial parts as the tragic "loss of their humanity" element in Kamen Rider stories. They wouldn't drop the idea entirely as Blade, OOO, and Gaim all incorporated the idea of slowly becoming a Undead, Greed, or Invess. But things like saying a person's cyborg arm or leg tragically made them no longer a human? Yeah, that had to go. |

By the way, it turns out that the most inhuman rider (we don?t take Vice into account, he can?t become a human) of our time is the Ghost. Unlike the others who had the transformation at the end of their shows, Takeru is not human for most of his series and reflects on this. |

I think making the protagonist an android from the outset wouldn't work as well since you can't exactly have Rider's "loss of humanity" theme if you weren't human to begin with. Now if they want to bring back Kikaida again and tackle that concept there I'd be down.

Yes, in this scenario, the hero will actually have to become a human or simply find his place in the world. Not exactly typical for a franchise, but it's always fun to try something new. |
