Just had a dream a couple of days ago about the next Rider being revealed. All I remember was that his main color was green

Damnit, I was already beaten to the "Zeo" joke

This sounds like fun.

Those "leaked" pictures might have been onto something. What with the series being the last Heisei series, yet the start of a new era.

On the contrary, it could be "Geo" or use the kanji for "Kanji" and "King".

So, we've got either Rider fusion, rock powers, or something like Shinkenger.

If this is legit it is a nice mix of references. Starting off we got the Kamen Rider ZO reference which itself was a tribute to the franchise's 20th anniversary(don't ask me why it is how Toei marked it ) and this year would be Kamen Rider ZO's 25th anniversary. And now to look at the potential references, like what others before this post have pointed out, this can also mean that the rider is to be considered a "king" of sorts as it can be translated into "The King". I am not convinced about the alternate romanization being Geo because "ジ" can be typically romanized as Ji or Zi than Ge by itself, as Ge is mostly written as "ゲ". Of course, there are exceptions such as the prefix Geo which can be written as "ジオ" but the fact that it is written "ジオウ" does not convince me enough that it is nothing more than ZI-O. Anyhoos, looking forward to additional info that will be revealed during summer.

Well, I was leaning towards pronunciation. "Geo". Like "Geology" or "Geography" or "Geode".

Of course it doesn't look like anything but ZI-O. But pronunciation wise.....

You thought the next rider would be ninja,dinosaur,etc themed but it was I Di- Zio!

Anyway jokes, if his name is supposed to be Geo then maybe this rider will use different rocks types as his gimmick.

I'm really curious to see what they do with this season. It's the 20th Heisei series/10th Neo Heisei series. I'm expecting something celebratory.

This will probably be our first non Heisei rider if the Emperor of Japan is stepping down soon.

[Blade Fang]

If Zi-O was geography-themed Rider, I think it will be interesting if his Forms is based on various countries in the World. Yes, maybe will be very similar to Battle Fever J.

Imagine if we were all wrong about the pronunciation and it turned out it was actually “Zeddy Rey.”
