Technically I think the title of first Reiwa Rider ought to go to Ginga.

There it is Lads! That time of year again! Now to wait for that good ol NEXT RIDER silhouette image!

Also inb4 Reiwa Number theory

I like the name. It's simple, but it invokes the imagination. It doesn't give away to many details. Plus, it makes sense for the first Rider of the new era. Zero-One.

Hoping the rumours about headphones and shit are real but with a name like this I get a vibe they want a more traditional design. How many weeks until we can expect scans again?

First though:



Second thought:

Zi-O = ZI

Third thought:

Cool name.

I don't get the "Reiwa Number Theory" bit.

I get the "Second thought: Zi-O = ZI" even less.

On a different note, doesn't "Zero-One" pair suspiciously well with the official pronunciation of ZO, the '90s Movie Rider after Shin and before J?

The first tease of Zi-O popped up early June, it was that very generic "round" image but it was something. After that end of June we got magazine scans with a silhouette, early July we got that Ganbarizing fuck up and a marketing leak that showed Geiz and some of the Armor Time forms. End of July we got the first official image of Zi-O with a poster, and ofcourse Magazine scans. So we're a little bit off but sooner or later something will leak.

Also going through the early pages of the Zi-O thread reminded me of the "IS ZI-O A GIRL" discussion, whew lad people got fucking upset about that

Forget the numbering system. Please please please be what I had envisioned, which was a digital Rider that was based on hard drives/digital world.

Kamen Rider Zero-One, hence ones and zeroes, base IO language.

I imagined that the driver would be scanners that could read barcodes for power ups. Originally I thought Mega, Peta, Tera and Zeta would be a great four Rider setup.

Especially since I kind of dig the Zi-O Decade form with the barcodes. But YMMV.

I know some people are wanting another Cyborg Rider. *Kikai walks in* You technically count, but not for what we're talking about! *pushes Kikai out of room*
