>>23369593 (OP)Fuck you made it too early
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGKksxBjCOQ
Critique Zeztz' aesthetics.
>>23369578Does the OZC torrent on nyaa fix the magenta shit or should I look in the mega?
WHY DON'T WE GO? EVERYBODY!
The lever is inspired by old Typhoon toys
The one thing I dont like about Sachika is how much of a bystander she is despite being so close to the riders.
She has no real connection to the granute issue and is just a handyman helping out.
/krg/ loves her because she isnโt involved like the previous reiwa heroines are but by this point she wouldโve gotten a focus episode as a victim of the MoTW. itโs weird that she hasnโt been targeted yet.
>>23369608The OZC release fixes the shit like Ornac and Wรคrring.
I feel so defeated using a thread done by a newfag, God I hate being autistic
>>23369618That's really cool, nice catch
>>23369626And the ei ei oh?
>>23369633I had to fix it for the webm, it also kept Zenith Arms.
>>23369600I love the suit, it's an interesting redesign of Ichigo even if it looks more like another toku imitating Ichigo rather than a proper Kamen Rider. The way it glows in the dark is insanely cool too.
But despite liking the suit conceptually I cannot really bring myself to enjoy it because of how many Ichigo redesigns we've gotten as of late making it feel less special.
>>23369600>Broadcast and streaming are scheduled to air in:>USA, Canada, Hong Kong, South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam and the MENA region. More details coming soon!usacanada????
The only Reiwa Ichigo-homage we ever needed, and they defiled its corpse many times over until they forget (that it ever was an homage).
>>23369638Seems that SHOUT convinced Toei to air it in the US. Shout is pretty based, I watched all of Kuuga on their channel on Youtube.
>>23369638Yeah we're getting official English subs on YouTube, just in time too because the two main subber groups of Kamen Rider are going to be taking a break this year.
Hopefully the subs are at least innofensive like with TokuShoutsu's
>>23369641Didn't shout have a gay communist subber that whined about how ultraman is racist?
>>23369649News to me. Shame. Hope they fired him.
Hope the new producer Yanaka can pull it off for Zeztz
>>23369600>TRADITIONIt's going to be about marriage too.
>No more sexy female monster's suits for Zeztz
Fuck
>>23369600It doesnโt look like a suit with a Grasshopper motif. It looks like a suit based off a suit that has a grasshopper motif. The antennae seem vestigial.
>>23369593 (OP)Zeztz really looks like a redone Century.
>>23369618>The driver at Girls Remix 2 is actually Zeztz Driver all this timeWe never knew...
>>23369653If true, I'll forgive them for going official in the West
The first kamen rider show airing in the west and itโs using ai lol get fucked westaboo
DANKE WHALE!
https://nyaa.si/view/1989782
https://izusubs.wordpress.com/2025/07/06/gavv-episode-42-release/
>>23369600Why not make this "revice" instead of the one we got?
>>23369622Yeah, the Agents can find Shouma's whereabouts while he's actively on the run in just 4 episodes but they can't find the big flashy place he's been staying at for nearly 40 episodes.
>>23369675You say that like it isn't the case for the majority of other shows as well
>>23369656Stop overreacting, Puniru is a kodomo show that's smutty as fuck yet the subs didn't censor anything.
If you want an even better example TokuShoutsu released English subs for Carranger yet didn't censor Zonette, it's unlikely they'll do that for future seasons. Although Zeztz might not get any due to being done by a drama producer.
>>23369668This is only a teaser, think of that Gotchard teaser that had bodybuilder music for no reason. If the actual show uses AI it won't be for anything major. Also Gozyuger already uses AI but that's for a lore reason.
>>23369670Thank you Whale
That looks more like her Onii-chan than Papa...
>>23369676Every other Reiwa show had the villains crash at the heroes' home/HQ at some point, and their MCs weren't even being actively hunted down for the entire show like Shouma was.
>Zeztz uses AI to piss off people and get them to hate the show, causing a huge enough stink to tarnish the IP so Toei gives it a break.>Gozyuger announces itself as the last Sentai so they get a break as well.>Toei pulls out all the stops for One Piece, even siphoning budget from Precure to feed it...>A huge hour slot is now available."Hey, Wit Studio, we just found a good slot for The One Piece!"
>>23369656It's AI, the monster suits are gonna be sexy whether you want it to or not.
>>23369600Suit's neato, but I don't like the lack of a belt. Also the toy is nice and sleek, but it kind of comes across as somewhat non-descript and boring, rather than just being slick. The gimmick toys aren't exactly wowing me or got me curious at first glance, either.
>>23369600It looks like the Andrew Garfield of Kamen Rider suits, but I do love the color scheme. I hope he's able to do a lot of cool fight and stunt scenes if they're going to go this minimalistic for a suit.
Looking forward to the detailed toy listing next week.
>>23369600I was not prepared for the tone of that video, holy shit. I'm insanely interested in where they're going with this. Such tonal whiplash coming from Gavv
>>23369678>If you want an even better example TokuShoutsu released English subs for Carranger yet didn't censor ZonetteTo be fair, those are DVDs made for adult nerds and are marketed as such with the "Before Power Rangers there was Super Sentai" tagline. Power Rangers, which actually aired in the mornings on childrens' TV blocks was more conservative than their JP counterparts.
>>23369688I'm a bit 50/50 on it. It entirely lacks that bit of cheesiness that gives tokusatsu a part of its charm. It's deadset 101% cool factor serious
>>23369681Toei Company, Ltd. and Toei Animation Co., Ltd. are two separate studios, dumbass.
>"we want diversity audience in rider"
>>23369689They streamed the Carranger subs on youtube but I don't know if the reason they were allowed to do that was because it was a livestream rather than a proper youtube video upload
Zeztzโs toys will be on display during Bandai Toys Bilibili World exhibition next Friday.
I don't mind if Takahashi is writing Zeztz.
>>23369697Careful what you joke about, or it might actually happen
>>23369600The suit is fine, but I'm not a fan of the AI backgrounds. I get that Toei is a typical jap corpo that wants to cut everything down to the bone, but it's gonna make the show look like shit.
>>23369697>>"we want diversity audience in rider"What does that mean? Are you talking about having diverse colors? Because these shows are made to appeal to Japan and the designs of anything are not that diverse when it comes to the main Rider designs with 3 of them being based on Ichigo and one of them partially being a rejected Zero-One design
I hope Takahashi wrote it
>>23369703Why couldn't lemon say it wasn't feline, him saying "it's inceneroar but not a tiger" made things unnecessarily confusing, at least it caused a lot of people larping as leakers to get called out I guess
>>23369692The powers seem to be whacky at least but at the same time they feel Ultraman-like so I don't know how the final result will be
>>23369600>>23369640Added to the collage
>>23369703I can kinda see the Incineroar that the leakers saw in it, but it looks like a beetleman in a battleskirt from here, like a Digimon kinda.
>>23369704>made to appeal to japanNot anymore.
Look at Zeztz and you tell me this isn't shirakura bending to knee to western demands.
>>23369718>>23369581Why do you let Shirakura live rent-free in your head instead of actually reading interviews and production notes?
>>23369716>no belt on his waistnot an Ichigo homage, fuck off
>>23369722Anon has his thing he gets mad at, so he stays mad at it. It keeps him calm.
Im ngl im not too optimistic about this whole western debut deal
>>23369727So you hate Shin, ZO and J too?
>Otherwise yeah it's a mix of massive overreactions of people who let AI live rent free in their heads and shitposting schizos
I WANT EVEN SLOPPIER PRODUCTIONS
CHURNED OUT FASTER
BY PEOPLE WHO GET PAID LESS
AND I AM NOT KIDDING
>>23369658was this suit used for kitbashes already?
>>23369733The show won't have AI backgrounds anon, you're just looking for excuses to get mad at
For the love of god just look at King-Ohger, this is the exact same situation as that show
>>23369735Gozyuger has AI backgrounds
>well that's just the theme of the vill-How convenient.
>>23369739>teehee I love having bad faith arguments in the kamen rider general
>>23369739But that's literally the reason, outside of that they've only used in meaningless shit like papers that only appear for 3 seconds
It's Artificial Intelligence = AI = Love + AI are bad imitating hands so the villain is a hand + AI get shit wrong so the kaijin are mix of words that sound similar to the monster's motif because it's misinterpreting
Besides Gozyuger has only one AI background, which is partially made with proper CGI and whenever they show the inside of the No One world city it's an actual city during nighttime with a proper CGI skybox
>>23369700Reddit-tier meme befitting a Takahashifag.
I actually think Zero One was good
"Kamen Rider" is trending on my xitter.
I actually think Zero One was bad
>>23369749That's OK anon, it's important to be able to think for yourself
>>23369754Same applies for you
>>23369755>>23369753Worldwide or Japan?
Imagine still watching Kamen Rider lmao
>>23369581I can see it if this is the producer's first Toku show, the Great Producer of Dai-Toei will probably "guide" him so that he doesn't screw it up.
>>23369600Itโs a green Zero One. Donโt like it. Face looks smudged. Itโs another reiwa design for sure, trying too hard to โlookโ like a Rider without really trying to do anything new. Only time Hopper riders really work for me is when theyโre movie riders.
>>23369758Again Shirakura has never shadow-produced a show, he only helps on pre-production, the reason why Gotchard had so much influence by Shirakura and Tsukada is purely Minato's fault.
>>23369745You probably would know a lot about plebbit, faggot. Are you going to accuse me of using tokunation or rangerboard or whatever faggot site your crossposting, projecting ass is from too?
>>23369600What Zero-One should've been.
>>23369758It's not like this guy is an amateur though, he's from Toei's normal drama division so he has plenty of experience. Just not on the hero show producing side.
>>23369766Nah, Zero-One still looks better
>>23369756I don't know, but my algorithm isn't really geared towards toku for the most part and it was on the "For You" part of trending. I live in America btw.
>>23369765Aw, the poor Redditor got mad because he and his shitty meme got called out.
>tokunation or rangerboardYou browse those sites too? Lmao, you're even more of a loser than I thought.
How's Decade or Legend going to work?
>>23369773I'm actually expecting his final form, or an upgrade to have him use a normal belt
So what are Ultraman's official subs like? Since people are making comparisons now with this new arrangement.
Reminder the only shows that have had shadow producers are
>Black RX being actually controlled by sponsors
>Goseiger being actually controlled by Omori and Wakamatsu
>Zi-O being actually controlled by Takebe and Tasaki
>Gotchard actually being controlled by Matsuura
Shirakura hasn't actually shadowproduced anything, his influence in other shows have only been
>Taking over Hibiki
>Geats being white and having guns as main weapons
>Gotchard having cards as a gimmick and a highschool setting
>Gozyuger having motifs of past seasons, the first episode getting rewritten
>>23369756Its trending here too along with Gavv and im in EU. I think unless it says "trending in <country>" its not region dependant
>>23369764Yeah yeah, keep the cope up, it's not like there's another show that's clearly not influenced by him and his tropes airing right now.
>>23369776Serviceable. Not really much different from the usual simulcast fare. I'd always take fansubs any day over official subs desu.
>>23369776They're fine. Do the job.
So logically if it airs in the west, we're also getting the toys in the west right?
>>23369782Do Ultraman toys come to the west? If so then I guess so yeah since both are done by BANDAI
>>23369782Ultraman toys aren't sold anywhere but Japan/Korea/China/SEA though the ads are still in the simulcast in other countries that don't have the toys at Toys R Us.
>>23369772The fact you give enough decency to that shithole of a site to capitalize it and treat it as a proper noun tells me you're a projecting faggot from there.
>>23369769Nah, Zero-One has an ugly main color and wack color distribution and proportions.
>>23369787Actually black and yellow with red accents is peak
>>23369787>bright colour = ugly/bad booooIt's over for Rider
>>23369777You really think Shirakura would make it known that he's micromanaging shows he isn't supposed to be in charge of while he's still working for the company? Some of the cases you mentioned weren't known until several years after the fact, and only after the people involved were willing to finally speak up and nobody's career could be hurt.
>>23369790Yes, highlighter yellow is an ugly color and I thank Ace-sama that it hasn't been used by any other Riders before or since.
>>23369787>>23369793Fluorescent neon yellow glows under UV, therefore it's cool. So you have shit taste, confirmed.
>>23369687Apparently, Next week also the press conference
>>23369791>Some of the cases you mentioned weren't known until several years after the factAside from Black RX, we knew all of these cases as late as Q2 at earliest before the shows came out. And I'm Hibiki's and Goseiger's cases you could see the staff changes and even Omori commented in one of the Goseiger blogs during the show.
You're really giving me no proper reason to believe your headcanon, specially when we know almost every reason for the flaws of these shows. The only one that we basically know nothing of what went behind is Boonboomger.
>>23369798Where did they say that? Next Friday we're only getting the toy showcase and a new teaser as far as I'm aware
>>23369776Honestly great, they're as close to accurate as you could get and no fanfic tier additions you'd see in some fansubs. I hope Zeztz gets subs as good as ultra.
>>23369795Zero-Two looks better because it has more red and silver, and some goddamn fluorescent color on its arms so it doesn't look like he's fucking handicapped.
But LEDs are still the superior glow in the dark method, Faiz and Zeztz mog.
>>23369799>even Omori commented in one of the Goseiger blogs during the show.What did he comment, anon?
>Ultraman hired godzilla sfx company to do their CGI
>meanwhile toei used genAI
Warai na joke da
Literally no way Kamen Rider could get more "American" than Black Sun without outright hiring western writers, and even Black Sun was just really flawed, not outright terrible, so I'm not that worried about Zeztz.
If anything they'll just let some Americans make some shitty short series or animated movie with the IP in the couple years if this is successfull, best case scenario it's ok like Ultraman Rising.
>>23369795Sugihara x Omori x WataJun was the best director/producer/action choreography combo this franchise had, I'm hoping the new blood director and Kami can surpass it. Kami himself is great for kino shots in dramatic episodes but Sugihara just has a sense for chuuni appeals in form debut episodes and big climatic fight scenes.
>>23369600It's a little bit to top heavy for my liking and I hate that the belt is now an over the shoulder thing otherwise it's fine. Actually if he wore the belt around his waist it might have helped the suit from feeling top heavy. It's such an odd choice but it's one I see constantly on western takes/redesigns of Rider suits so I could see it as them trying to appeal more to the western market since this is getting broadcast damn near everywhere.
>>23369777>>Zi-O being actually controlled by Takebe and TasakiNah, Shirakura was writing the blogs himself, he was very hands-on with this work.
And just like that, people forget about gavbb
I blame komura being a lazy fuck tho
>>23369810People literally always forget about the current series around this time, newfag
>>23369802LEDs are nice and all, but they are not 100% superior. Ever notice how the photon blood streams on Faiz's gloves and the red on his helmet don't actually glow? It's because they couldn't fit LEDs on the more intricate parts of the suit. UV fluorescent paint solves that issue, just bring upon many others.
>>23369809He was very hands from Q2 onward but for Q1 Tasaki decided how the legacy episodes would play out and Takebe was the one who chose Shinomoya too
>>23369804He commented about not being able to secure a writer for the 33th episode due to "complications" iirc
>>23369810I still like Gavv, do you really want people to not discuss the new show that's about to air? The advent of a new season is always exciting
>>23369810And people still bait with shit like this every year too
>>23369807>Sugihara x Omori x WataJun was the best director/producer/action choreography combo this franchise hadNo, that's Sugihara, Takebe and Fujita.
>>23369818And it's about to get worse
>>23369810Give the Gavvfags a break, this week's episode wasn't very good.
>>23369819Swap tabeke to ohmori then we're good.
>>23369807>Ishida x Shirakura x Miyazaki was the best director/producer/action choreography combo this franchise hadFtfy, newfag.
>>23369821But I liked it a lot aside from Hanto not doing the finishing blow against Suga
If we're doing what ifs combos for me it would be
>Tsukada
>Kami
>Fujita
You just know a powerhouse of a team like that could make something kino with the right writer
>>23369825Fujita never worked with Ohmori as an action director, dumbass.
>>23369600wait is it confirmed broadcast at the same time as japan or..?
>>23369827You would like anything Gavv throws at you.
>>23369830They haven't said yet, but most likely the episodes will release a day later
I don't watch Ultraman but I think that's how they do it with that franchise?
How do u think the western KR tourists are gonna react to Zeztz? Thats gonna be a show in itself
>>23369831So? What is wrong with that?
Do we bother you when you have a good time during gotchard, or maybe saber?
Do you want to tell me your taste is superior?
>>23369775>final episode>Zeztz holds the belt>he slaps it around his waist>HENSHIN
>>23369831There's stuff I don't like about Gavv but it's usually not enough to ruin a whole episode, examples
>Q2 starting unnecessarily slow>The stomach family being missing for most of Q2>The clone stuff being conveluted, disconnected from the main theme of the show and too convinient >Them not properly exploring Suga's backstory >Hanto hardly defeating any actual Kaijin>Lakia being kind of annoying for a while after he turned a new leaf>The show not throwing enough despair at Sachika>Like most Rider seasons, Shouma not using most of his Q1 forms despite this show having a proper world building reason to do that>The villains overall having plain personalitiesBut otherwise this is the most fun I've had with a currently airing season since Build personally
>>23369835There just no way of knowing until the conference but they'll probably recoil in disgust whenever the show does stuff for kids despite it being a kids show first and foremost
>>23369835that really depends on what the actual plot and characters are like, but expect a lot shit like "I watched this show and it was nothing like Power Rangers!" or "Mature Power Rangers?!!?!?!?!?"
This shot kinda reminds me of those showcase shots of Hibiki that look almost like gay pinup photos
>>23369841The bare waist thanks to the shoulder bag driver sexes up the design a bit
>>23369841If watching streamers play Metal Gear Rising taught me anything, its that this will appeal to the female gaze
>>23369840There was semi-recently a video that came out on a fairly subscribed to channel where a person decided to watch Timeranger because you can just do that if you're a burger was was clamering over how mature the themes/drama was compared to the adaption Time Force. I guess videos like that will pop up for Zeztz if it has such a ease of access IE with the episodes being uploaded to Toei Tokusatsu World for everyone besides the EU and AU/NZ.
now I see the incineroar comparison, it's the lighter underbelly
>>23369850The initial leak wasn't even talking about the suit, but the figure inside the gimmick device. See
>>23369703
>>23369836>Do we bother you when you have a good time during gotchard, or maybe saber?Why do you assume I liked either of those shows? I didn't.
>your taste is superior?It is.
>One thing that can be confirmed is that this time they will likely make extensive use of LED volume (LED ring screen) filming; the special report revealed it very clearly
>The preview narration is voiced by the CV (voice actor) of this timeโs motorcycle
>Yes, this time itโs intentional.
>>23369836Why haven't you taken your meds yet?
The first lemon post is about what the other anon said already earlier that the belt's cover being removable
The second one talks about the designs inside of the capsems for the alternate forms
>Blue form: Greninja
>Green: Creamy Soldier (I don't know what he's referring to)
>Purple: like the one in the picture
>>23369861I assume lemon is referring to these maybe?
>>23359757>>23359760>>23359765Man, you guys did me dirty by recommending Build when I was saying I hated how overly toyetic the new Rider shows were getting. I watched 4 episodes now, and this motherfucker has more forms than episodes.
...
Show is actually pretty great, though. Characters are neat, kaijin and Rider suits are cool. Action is decent. Story is actually pretty good, too. Banjo being such an angry rageboy is kinda annoying, but I get why he's like that. I'm having fun with Build.
Actually a great recommendation.
>>23369866Anon you're watching an ascended toy commercial franchise you can't be mad when toys exist. And yes, Build is recommended by most people as a great watch, mainly because the cast is just so god damn strong.
>>23369856>Zeztz will have an Auto Vajin that talks in random English phrasesThis is as if Auto Vajin had 555's belt voice, that sounds kino
>>23369870The trailer is already in full english so I'm glad we're back to Japanglish sports announcer kino
>>23369866don't continue, just drop it..
build gone bad during 10-20 episodes and never build-up..just watch other stuff..in fact, don't watch rider again..go away you're better fuck off from this franchise, shoo shoo tourist
What are the odds Zeztz gets dubbed? Tap into that western market, lots of people watch dubbed anime, play dubbed gacha. Lots of people enjoyed Squid game too.
>>23369835If it's good they'll suck it off as the best thing ever because meh Power Rangers
If it's shit they'll suck it off as the best thing ever because meh Power Rangers
Western fanbase it's everything u no matter how shit it is. I think the only thing they actually bitch about is "meh female rider", or "meh female red ranger"
And just like that, /krg/ has forgot about Fourze.
>>23369880The Ultraman releases have dubs these days so maybe?
>>23369880>lots of people watch dubbed animeThey do? I'd say the chances are high that we'll get a dub but probably not immediately and I'm not sure if future seasons will have dubs, I assume they'll handpick whichever seasons do
>>23369882I still do Fourze's friendship salute with my friends, in fact I did it just today with my older brother
>>23369886>They do?Unfortunately. Dubs went hand-in-hand with anime going more mainstream in the West and the flooding in of normalfags
Imagine how big the upgrade Capsems would be
>>23369600The chin area is not the same on the left and right pic for some reason...
>>23369874>ๅ่ๅฑ็คบDammit. I'd cough up for that Shining Hopper one
>>23369703>looks like a pokeballNINTENDO
I sure do hope Zeztz has a more mature tone compared to the rest of Reiwa. Something similar to Game of Thrones or the The Wire
So does anyone have any hard proof that the Zeztz trailer is using AIslop or does it just look like AIslop to some people?
lots of hot milf in gavv new episode:)
>>23369897Come on you cant not see it
So....Gavv does feel like a budget season, we didn't even get an expensive P-bandai rider.
>>23369600Not feeling Zeztz's belt/toys desu. It's super sleek, but in a really boring way. Like an iPhone kind of way. Might give me an excuse to skip the year in favour of collecting any PDX stuff Gavv gets instead.
>>23369848oh yeah the homophobic priest that can't play heartstone, I know of him, he makes trash videos.
But yeah we might see some videos maybe, on socials you're definitely gonna see annoying people making bad takes but hey you can just mute and block them, the main thing I'm wondering is if Bandai is gonna also release the toys in these regions, probably limited but still would love to have less shipping and import costs
>>23369893It's because the helmet is a bike helmet with antennas and compound eyes, the rest is a texture over a visor, it seems like the texture can shift?
>>23369901Didn't need it when those slots were still being filled by PDX Geats stuff
>>23369600He kinda looks like an Ultraman to me but I can't explain exactly how.
>>23369908Based Geats still winning
>>23369903Zeztz is the "what if KR stopped being quirky" season. But only time will tell, maybe the MC is another Houtaro with some video game plot like Ex-aid with all this digitally stuff.
>Gotchard producer
ZZZ will be total garbage, another wasted good design in a shit show for children.
>>23369909It's the lack of the belt at the waist. And the fact that the suit is so slender, compared to Rider suits typically looking more armoured
>>23369909probably the sleek body, lack of armor plates
>>23369915He's a sub producer, dummy.
The chief producer is Yanaka, from Toei's drama division.
>>23369908>>23369901That doesn't really have to do with lack of budget. It's either Takebe getting her way and releasing less toys or something weird because of the new schedule. Gozyuger's rival Mecha and the silver recolor of the main mecha are both retail, so far it has only gotten a single weapon/mecha add-on as PB.
It seems that from Gavv/Gozyuger onward we'll simply get less PB items directly tied to the show
>>23369920Ah I see, my bad. Hype then
>CaKing gets another showing next episode
Yay. Don't even care if it's just to job
>>23369600is it just me that thinks this feels like an add for like fancy perfume or something?
>>23369903I would be waiting for Yezz stuff before giving an opinion since heโs supposed to be the more โavant-gardeโ one.
>>23369920tbf it seems that Minato does have some influence since we're a getting
>Ichigo homage>Bike that fuses with the rider>Rival that turns into a riderHopefully this extends to getting insert songs too. But the most important parts, which are the setting and tone are definitely being handled by Yanaka. I feel that Zeztz will be be one of the weirdest seasons we've gotten so far
>twitter trannies now get to harass the staff about muh female rider directly
>>23369930Will it make that much of a difference really? Zeztz is the main Rider, thus, his henshin item is going to be the centerpiece toy for the year
>>23369932Toei higher ups won't give them attention, it all depends on wether the show's chief producers want to engage with them and I highly doubt it.
>>23369932The only potential silver lining is that the Nip mainstream also get a front row seat to their absolute retardation and can call them out of it. It's gotta be surreal, when natively, Rider is unequivocally a children's toy commercial show first and foremost, regardless of what adult following they have. Now there's going to be a bunch of loud gaijins trying to drag their own culture, problems and politics into their kids show.
>>23369931He's still a sub-producer so he can still give ideas. They just all go through Yanaka first. And yeah, this'll be the first KR season produced by someone outside of Toei's usual toku hero sphere so we should get something fairly different from the norm.
>>23369932>grrr I'm getting made at scenarios I made up in my head!!!
>>23369934Zeztz's secondary rider is described as a silver W extreme with orange and purple lines and a helmet similar to Ryuki's. That sounds like usual Rider weirdness to me.
But the belt across the waist will be a constant across all riders seemingly.
>>23369903I'm the complete opposite. I didn't really like how the toys in Gavv looked or sounded.
>>23369938>>grrr I'm getting made at scenarios I made up in my head!!!Anon, that's literally going to happen because they do shit like that all the time
I still remember when people on twt kept saying 01 is some sort of racial discourse? Cause its still happening somehow
>>23369939I wonder if there's gonna be a story reason for that or if it's just how they wear it.
>>23369941Why not just not look at toku twitter then? You don't need to look at their discussions.
>>23369941When has Toei actively listened to the west's opinions when making Toku or Anime?
>>23369925CaKing is kind of the GOAT form since I believe it hasn't been beaten except by Bake and that was when Shouma was sick.
>>23369866I warned you that the show had tons of toys in spite of the buildbabbies hyping it up.
>>23369900Anyone who can't see the blatant AI usage is blind or retarded
>>23369920Zeztz have three producers. Not sure who's the third one though.
>>23369932I don't see an issue if it's just a secondary, Revice did them well as just fanservice.
Precure had a male cure x oneesan duo.
>>23369910https://x.com/t_features/status/1941655867641954386
Speaking of Geats wa never endo
Can any anon explain to me why you guys check western Twitter and Reddit instead of simply ignoring them?
Like why can't you just use Twitter to follow news, leakers and Japanese artists rather than checking what retarded westerners think? Why post their shitty opinions here?
>>23369941And? Best case scenario the staff get upset by the constant harassment by twitter teenagers, the numbers are too low to justify continuing, and Zeztz becomes a one time experiment until they try to bring it over to the west again in another 20 years. The demons in your head are your friend anon.
>>23369948Glotta had already BTFO'd it before Bake, she even swatted its Rider Kick away like it was nothing.
>>23369946I'm pointing out how that's not made up scenario and happens often. Someone looking or not looking doesn't change the fact it still happens all the time.
>>23369947It's highly unlikely but people said the same shit about anime
>>23369866Good, finish Drive and watch Ex-Aid and Saber next.
>>23369955Because they're addicted to getting mad at opinions they don't like and share them here in hopes that others join in. Simple as.
>>23369908I still can't believe they released a shitter Bujin sword and a proper Bujin sword as pbandai
>>23369951Takasaki Sota is another drama producer, he made the adaptation of the Manga Densetsu no Head Sho which had a ton of toku alumni
Also this might be another King-Ohger situation where they have 3 producers so that the 3D settings have variety, only that this time Minato and Sota might get to stay since the situation isn't the same
>>23369600It kinda reminds of of the Shin KR concepts
>>23369967That's what color said too
>>23369940Same, Gavv jingles are lame.
>>23369966Two drama producers and a toku hero show producer. An interesting mix.
>>23369969I wouldn't call them lame but I'm not going on Youtube to listen to them outside the show.
>>23369937>The only potential silver lining is that the Nip mainstream also get a front row seat to their absolute retardation and can call them out of itThey're gonna join them, the average Nip is heavily westernized nowadays.
I miss Inoue, but last time he did Rider stuff he turned Gai into a crazy gay man.
>>23369969Jingles are lame in general.
>>23369970Yanaka at least worked as an assistant producer for Rider, but the toku project he was the most involved in which was the Rogue mini-series certainly has a more drama feel. This will the first time that Sota works on something toku related.
Feels weird that Toei is gifting producers from other divisions that worked with Omori before, besides this there's Kuji with Boonboomger.
>>23369959So just a scenario in your head? Gotcha
>>23369975>Zeztz being chief produced by the guy that produced the Rogue mini-seriesOh man
>>23369963Get cucked flame, your country isn't in the list of Zeztz simulcast lmao
>>23369979>Prison Rape the series
>>23369980>Everyone is Flame in my head
>>23369975>>23369979I haven't seen the Rogue mini-series, how's the tone for it besides the gay rape attempt that I see people mention a lot
>>23369867Oh, I don't have a problem with it being toyetic. I grew up with Kamen Rider. I was buying the toys as a kid. lol
I just feel that they went a little too ham with that side of things with Heisei phase 2. You can see them play with it in phase 1, but things were still tamped down. And then there is a marked shift in phase 2, both with the toyetic-ness and style of the shows become more gaudy and wacky. I didn't really dig that.
But hey, I'm enjoying Build, so I'ma keep watching, and see what the newer shows are like.
>>23369876Soooo sorry for me for getting the itch to get back to watching the shit I liked in my younger days.
Suck a fat dick, cunt.
>>23369984It's very dark. Basically just something for adult TTFC subbers to see how dark the underside of Build's world can get.
>>23369978Okay, I'm trying to figure out people here are so fucking retarded.
>X says Twitter trannies and zoomer will harass staff over female riders>retard says "IT'S IN YOUR HEAD AND MADE UP">I point out twitter troons going after staff for asinine and inconsequential happens all the time.>"WHY DON'T YOU NOT LOOK AT TWITTER", "IT'S IN YOUR HEAD"Like, you can't he this fucking stupid
>>23369979you don't like ass-blasted gentoku?
For me? It's Outsiders
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU_DAU3OeZI
>>23369975They're desperate to get a new Omori after his sudden departure so they're bringing older producers that served as AP for toku before.
Hopefully they bring Utsunomiya back.
>>23369994I mean in the sense that a full TV series is being produced by this guy. The drama will be thick, and directed by Kami. It might be full on kino.
>>23369995Only toku m.c.A๏ฝฅT song I don't like personally
He peaked at Flashback: https://youtu.be/ZiUmWPBZgxc
>>23369998The Rogue mini-series still had Omori but yeah we're getting 3 producers, a writer and a director who seem to like edgy shit, not at all what I was expecting from the Zeztz leaks.
>>23370002I wonder then if Zesty will be actually quite dark if they are appealing to westerns more.
>Zeztz gets dubbed
>JYB is the VA
>>23370004I mean it's still airing on SHT between Precure and Sentai.
>>23370004The franchise already strikes a good balance with shows like Gaim and Gavv. Part of the charm is how cheesy and goofy the visuals, toys, suits, etc. look, while still being earnestly serious in its storytelling when the shows want to be. Going all in on generic dark/edge just doesn't seem like a good way to stand out in the long run
>>23369600Sooooo, tomorrow full staff reveal or next week?
>>23370011Press conference, so early August
>>23370013With the show being simulcast in around half the world I expect they won't bother geolocking the conference this year, hopefully.
>>23369974Nah, just Gavv's.
>>23370010Definitely, I assume the staff still knows that.
Even King-Ohger and Build which pandered harder to adults had a bunch of goofy shit in it
Best-looking and most-versatile bike in recent years
>>23370023My favorite is still Black Sun but if this bike dies indeed turn into a robot it will definitely be my favorite, I'm a sucker for that kind of shit

>>23370030Imagine Zeztz having multiple personalities being executed in a similar way to the two Lupins movie that Takahashi did
That would be fucking kino
>>23370026>if this bike dies indeed turn into a robot it will definitely be my favoriteOh I forgot about that rumor lmao. People getting all swept up in the PV visuals forgetting this is still a regular Kamen Rider series.
>If Zeztz does something extremely edgy and parents complain they won't be able to walk it back until the second half
How much will they take advantage of this?
>>23370030If that theory of KR Zeztz being an older man is true, this legitimately might be quite good. Schizod glowie in his 30-40's fighting nightmares for a shadowy agency.
>>23370041>target the show towards kids>try to do cool shit>walk it back when retarded parents shit themselvesWhy
>>23370010>part of the charm>suit is sleek like ultraman>also used aislop and bland trinketWhat's the point?
And before you tell me "it's early preview they can change it later"
You need to differentiate between CGI and AI generated images.
>>23370050nta but there were only 3 AI backgrounds on the teaser while the rest was CGI and these scenes were clearly filmed for this specific teaser rather than the show.
I'd say wait until the conference to see if we have to shit our pant or not because of AI usage. I mean it's not like the eyecons for Ghost were aliens or like Gotchard and Legend had bodybuilder music.
>>23370048>he doesn't know about ghost incidentnewfaggot-kun....
>>23370057There's nothing in that anon's post implying that he doesn't
>>23370050It really depends on the producer's balls, when people complained about Ouja Shirakura just did a two-parter about a girl having Stockholm syndrome and called it a day, Ghost's producer was just that much of a pussy. But point is that even if the staff wanted to, at least for the first half, they won't be able to walk anything back in Zeztz and the staff are a bunch of edgy people.
>>23370055Okay, i will hold my judgement for this. But TOEI is known for their pettyness so it's not out of realm if they did insert AI into rider show.
>>23370023This just looks almost straight off the shelf
Yo! Gavv 42 is now on the Reiwa Rider Drive(r)! Thanks to Whale for the subs!
>>23370062I don't like it, but AI is already being used for backgrounds in Gavv and Gozyuger. It's not a surprised they'd use it here even if it is still cringe.
>>23370050>>23370055The teasers in question just in case

On a non-Zeztzztztt note, can someone tell me what the deal is with Ex-Aid? People keep saying its good but im like a third through the show and all of this feels like absolute nonsense. Does it like get better or am i missing something? Only character i can derive some enjoyment out of is Dan Kuroto
>>23370065>Background in gavvWoah, hold it. Fucking where?
If you meant the granute world, then no. That's not it.
>>23370071If you're a third into the show then you will most likely not enjoy the rest. Most people enjoy it because of the cast and the show making a surprisingly good use of breakneck pacing which is usually a detriment for other shows, the directing is also phenomenal at times.
>>23370071It's a medical melodrama in the casing of biomechanical video game super heroes. If you don't like it now, you probably won't like the rest? I dunno what to tell you.
>>23370065There's no AI background the Stomach building and the President's building are both CGI backgrounds made by the Chinese studio that did the backgrounds for King-Ohger while the slums are Shuggodam from King-Ohger put through a filter. Only Gozyuger has used AI and it's only for the far away shots of the No One world excluding the building of Bridan which is proper CGI.
>>23370066Ghost's breakdancing and the BGM used for that video are fucking amazing
Man why did Wizard's and Ghost's productions have to get fucked in the ass?...
>>23370071no it's not good someone is lying to you, you should never step foot in this franchise anyway, they will rot your brain..go away shoo
Jesus fuck we really need to gatekeep rider sooner or later
>>23370079The time to do that was like a decade ago. We're a long way past the point of no return.
>>23370079Ive already watched through 01, Build, Gaim and Geats in that order, its not my first go at it
>>23370078They never said the show was going to be about hip-hop and alien trinkets, I doubt the show would have the same feel as the PV even without the retool.
>>23370079Why do you use punctuation that way every time?
>>23370078They didn't have enough balls, Utsunomiya should have fired Kida just like how Hikasa fired Imai and Takahashi should have stuck with his original plan and ignored soccer moms
>>23370030It's more than a pipedream but I would kill for Susumu Hirasawa to make some music for Zeztz, or Kamen Rider in general.
His music is literally "Dreamlike".
How the fuck are people still not able to differentiate between what is AI and what isn't
>>23370086That teaser wasn't meant to represent the show just like Saber's, Takahashi P does that I know.
I'm mostly referring to how hype I was for those two shows back when they were announced but then their productions went awry.
>>23370079You're an obnoxious SEAmonkey.
>>23370084And you're a dumb newfag.
>>23370090AI keeps getting better.
>>23369600i can't, it's sex
>>23370090It's the other way around. AI's slowly improving year-by-year to the point where it's getting harder to tell the difference over time
>>23370087>Utsunomiya should have fired KidaAnd let Komura take over? Hell no.
>>23370094>>23370097There's still plenty of things that give it away in the backgrounds for the Zeztz teaser
>>23370098Let literally anyone take over, Arakawa was available at the time for fucks sake. Having actual direction is better than the show's plot being in limbo because the main writer is fucking off to make stage shows with his wife
>>23370101And not everyone's spending day-in-day-out training themselves to look for the itty bitty bits of evidence. Most people just glance at these things and call it a day
Suit costume is good, glowing in the dark
Then, i see the sneakers
lmaoooooo
>>23370107I wonder if the orange wings will also glow in the dark
>>23370061Now they could also make the argument that these parents are trying to force "woke" western cartoons as the ideal content for children
>>23370099idk why but the eyes remind me of Earth-1610 Spider-Man (Peter, not MIles)
>>23370066Can someone who actually knows how to make webms make a higher quality version of this cut?
>>23370112Who's "they" in this context and why would Toei care about what the west thinks?
I have to imagine the driver's english is going to sound incredibly fluent
>>23370114>why would Toei care about what the west thinks?They're literally making a show to attract the western audience.
>>23370023>only gets used 5 times
Was Zeztz suit actor revealed?
>>23370116But these shows are still primaroly made for Japan it's not like they gave a shit when Korean soccer moms got mad at Kamen Rider despite the shows getting officially distributed there. They only care if the Japanese complain.
>>23370114Because PR is dead, Marvel is in a slump and now would be a good time to make something that will rake in money.
>>23370114american parents.
just remember minatoP interview that he's pushing for female rider and that's going to happen in the next, idk, maybe 10-20 years
that's him following the trend and going woke.

>>23370119According to the leaks it's Kenta Nitta who has only done mooks for toku but outside of toku he has been a somewhat prominent face actor and action director for stageplays
My uncle works at Kamen Rider and he says that every character in Zeztz will be a queer black woman. I'm sorry, Japan has fallen.
>>23370115I think it's honestly going to suck some of the charm out of it if it really is 150% fluent. In the sense that even the "fluent" English jingles to date still have that dramatised Engrish flair to them that the Nips think is cool.
>>23370129The callouts sound pretty flairy as usual anyway, I mean "good morning, rider?"
>>23370120They wouldn't have bothered making a design that in the Japanese's own words looks like a an American comic book superhero, a PV in English, and a simulcast release if they weren't planning on appealing to westerners in some way as part of their next strategy.
>>23370121But people watch Japanese because it's Japanese and I like Toei knows that. Shirakura mentioned how he disliked the original Power Rangers movie but prefers the Philippines Voltes show because it was more faithful to the Japanese equivalent and sourcing it as one of the reasons why it was successful.
>>23370122But that's just Minato and he isn't the main producer this time. The other producers we've gotten aren't that much of a westaboo aside from Omori and even him never pushed for female secondaries or female protagonists. Also it's like like western kids or parents are going to be the primary fans in the west either, the primary western audience are western otakus.
>>23370133Are they sure they're trying to appeal to American audience and not the Indian audience?
>>23370134Are you the same anon who thinks kamen rider isn't for children?
>>23370135>But that's just Minato and he isn't the main producer this timeHe can still produce a new show in the future, retard-kun.
>>23370135>But people watch Japanese because it's Japanese and I like Toei knows that.Do they, though? I don't have much faith in that sentiment when many Japanese properties outside of this space can and have faltered when they start trying to pander to a Western mainstream audience. The gaming space especially
>>23370139No, you're just the retard who thinks Zeztz doesn't have an obvious focus on appealing to foreigners.

>>23370087>Have Sho Aikawa as a guest writer, the guy that's literally known for picking up incomplete stories of other people, including Blade>Doesn't fire Tsuyoshi Kida and instead keeps Komura as a co-writerWhat was Utsunomiya thinking at the time?
>>23370140The point was about Zeztz. But even then he's the only current producer who pushes for that kind of female representation, unless Takijima and Yanaka also do that.
>>23370139Nothing in anon's post talks about Kamen Rider not being a kid's show schizo.
>>23370139>Currently airing show displayed a woman getting dissolved and turned into spice for addicts>It's just for children bro!!!!!!!!!!!
>>23370125I know theyโve done it before for minor characters, but having the Main Rider do his own stunts for a whole year seems kinda excessive. I donโt think itโs worth it just for somewhat better out-of-suit combat.
>>23370148It's for Japanese children who aren't treated like retards incapable of judgment like western children
>>23370148>projecting Western perspective again
>>23370148Japan has different standards
>>23370144>>Have Sho Aikawa as a guest writer, the guy that's literally known for picking up incomplete stories of other people, including BladeAlso the guy that got fired by big daddy Shirakura himself and hasn't headlined a single Toei show since then.
>>23370155He did Kiramager
>>23370155But he has returned to Toei several times and has even written movies for them, it's not like he has a problem with Toei or viceversa he only has a problem with Shirakura.
Also Shirakura didn't fire him, he left on his own accord after Shirakura changed the script without his permission
>>23370156That was Naruhisa Arakawa
>>23370147>The point was about ZeztzRead anon's post again, you're a retard who lacks reading comprehension.
>>23370147I meant he's projecting, like this anon said
>>23370153That's what makes me worry about this whole simulcast thing.
I fear rider will lose their identity, lose their roots if catered way too much to the western.
Then again Shirakura said they want to spread their wings into the international market so..
>>23370157>But he has returned to Toei several times and has even written movies for them, it's not like he has a problem with Toei or viceversa he only has a problem with Shirakura.Like I said, Aikawa hasn't headlined a single Toei show since Decade's first half, he's only gotten minor jobs like guest writing and V-Cinemas. Ohma Shira-P has a lot of sway at Toei, even if he isn't really the top dog.
>>23370161And once again I tell you to stop letting Shirakura live rent free in your head, we know why each head writer has been picked so far, Tsuyoshi Kida was picked because Utsunomiya wanted a show like Hibiki
If a Kodomo show like Puniru which has an unironic pedophile as the main cast can get simulsubs without them affecting the show's or manga's production why could the west's opinions realistically affect Kamen Rider if they hardly buy toys and have different core values to Japanese children?
>>23370121If you want to know how dire the straits are, PR was bought back by Disney, this also means any future PR comics will be distributed under Marvel, which already has Battle Fever J, Denziman, and Sun Vulcan as separate Earths
>>23370162>I tell you to stop letting Shirakura live rent free in your headYou have no idea how Japanese companies work.
>we know why each head writer has been picked so far, Tsuyoshi Kida was picked because Utsunomiya wanted a show like HibikiLearn to follow a conversation, because this is not the point being discussed at all.
>>23370165People who think a western side of a fanbase can change anything really oversell how powerful they are as a group, especially with niche stuff like toku hero shows.
>>23370165I don't know if you noticed, but in the same vein, just because a show is a kodomo show to Nipponland themselves, it doesn't mean it's shown/marketed to the West in the same way. Take all the mainstream long-running anime that actually made its way to children's TV channels in the West; they all had to undergo adaptation and censoring in some way, because they were acutely geared towards children.
>>23370148Gavvbabbies desperately need a reality check.
>>23370175I remember all the shonen anime that only aired in the US as part of the late night Toonami block.
Only time will tell if the show ends up being more like either Inception or the AI the Somnium Files.
>>23370169>You have no idea how Japanese companies workAnon if Shirakura really was keeping Sho Aikawa from doing projects he wouldn't have done the Go-Onger movie, and the original point is why Utsunomiya didn't pick him to take over Wizard which was because he didn't want to fire anyone. I mean look at the reasoning as to why he picked Komura twice
>Picked her for Zyuohger because he felt that it wasn't fair that her first role as a main writer was under a situation like Wizard>Picked for Lupinranger VS Patranger because he wanted to reuse her setting ideas for when Zyuohger was originally a Phantom Thief SentaiMeanwhile Omori picked Takahashi for Ex-Aid despite originally coming with the Video Game idea with Riku Sanjo back in Drive.
>>23370175I know that, but Zeztz is being brought to YouTube, not to some TV Network on children timeslot, so that kind of censorship wouldn't apply for Zeztz's distribution. I'm mostly saying that if we get a show made by for example Takebe or Matsuura they would most likely not pander to the west at all, the pandering would depend on which producer we get.
>>23370165Damn japan is based lol
>>23370181>he wouldn't have done the Go-Onger movieThat's like the only work he receives from Toei since his falling out with the Great Ohma Shira-P, cheap direct to DVD movies.
>Utsunomiya didn't pick him to take over Wizard which was because he didn't want to fire anyone. I mean look at the reasoning as to why he picked Komura twice>> Picked her for Zyuohger because he felt that it wasn't fair that her first role as a main writer was under a situation like WizardThis is pure headcanon.
>>23370183Okay, good point. But who knows yrars later, if a group of parents stumble upon rider YouTube and decided to bomb review or maybe complain because the show not suitable for their standards?
>>23370183The Toei producers have higher-ups, of those higher-ups want to keep pandering to the western audience, people like Takebe and Matsuura will have to do it whether they want it or not. Zeztz doing all the stuff it's doing already feel less like the initiative of its producer and more like Toei finally acting on their big plan to expand their market to western countries.
>>23370186>is pure headcanonI was going to fight you about but after looking at the production notes for Zyuohger again I couldn't find that statement again, so I guess it really was my schizo illusion.
You still have an unhealthy obsession with Shirakura thought, also that was the 10th anniversary movie, I'd say that's a bit more meaningful than a regular V-Cinema.
>>23370191Who's the current president of the Tokusatsu division now that Jun Hikasa stepped down?
>>23370180The rumors said Paprika+Inception+James Bond
Though who knows if Zeztz won't have a helper in the dreamscapes like that guy had the eyeball girl.
How exactly does Toei measure failures? I thought Kyuranger, Ghost and Revice were commercial successes yet they ended up with the producers getting demoted. I'm personally fine with those cases because I hated those seasons but I'm still curious of their exact criteria.
>>23370192>also that was the 10th anniversary movie, I'd say that's a bit more meaningful than a regular V-CinemaYou really think the average consumer is going to buy that shit? No, it's meant for older otaku, that's why they have a peanut budget, arguably even lower than the average Rider V-Cin.
>>23370202Audience numbers/appreciation and toy sales, former for Toei itself and latter for Bandai.
>>23369600It kinda gives off โdesigned by AIโ vibes, but maybe itโs due to the simplicity of the design. Not a lot of armor and partsZ
>>23370202When did Taka-P get demoted? Also as per Color's words, Revice's toyline was neither a success nor a failure, so I guess Mochizuki might have gotten demoted partly because there were bigger expectations for Revice and maybe also the controversies with Aguilera's actress and that female assistant producer who got harassed during production.
>>23370192Like this anon said
>>23370203, the 20th anniversaries having more budget are the exceptions, they usually have less budget than regular V-Cinemas, although I doubt Sho Aikawa is being kept away from working as a main writer, it's mostly that no one wants to hire him as a main writer after his Garo anime.

>>23369640>>23369716Yeah Zeztz came in way too late.
And itโs funny because they could have based him off Black and it would have worked. Everyone loves that show and it has not had any tributes outside of Black Sun.
>>23370206This a perfect show to give them a reality check, reminding them that Kamen Rider is a childrens' show first and foremost.
>>23370213Ghost got him demoted he then was promoted again with Ryusoulger wasn't he? Or am I misremembering?
Also I don't think the Aguilera thing affected Mochizuki because that was more related to the agency but the assistant producer controversy could have affected with his demotion.
>>23370212It was definitely a result of them just typing different names of Riders into an AI and picking the best design it shit out
>>23369681>AI is sexyThe gooner threads you go to are not what companies use AI for
>>23369851true, but the suit also has it
>>23369701>>23369704Not that anon but holy fuck are you guys sensitiva, he was only joking
>>23370217Two different leakers from different countries each said it's Takahashi, the only reason I'm willing to believe it isn't Takahashi is because Yanaka is a drama producer, so you'd think he would pick someone like Takano or Mutou. But Yanaka was also an assistant producer for Ex-Aid so I guess that's why he wanted to pick him again for Rider?
>>23369703>intimidates the kaijin>smacks their faces to flinch>leaves while weakening them again
>>23370226I'm the second anon, I was genuinely asking because I really don't understand what the joke was or what kind of diversity he was talking, it's a broad word.
>>23370220>Aguilera thing affected Mochizuki because that was more related to the agencyDidn't she claim she was being looked at sexually by a co-worker on Revice? It was a separate issue from the stalker that her agency refused to help her with.
>>23369735>>23369743Outsiders used AI and so did Gozyuger. King Ohger didnโt but itโs clear that they didnโt invest in that technology then but they will now. And if you want an excuse you can just say โdream worlds are weird so we use AI to create this weirdnessโ. The more excuses you let this company use AI, the worse it gets. Donbrother also used digital worlds and never used AI.
Keep in mind this show is meant to be international, so complaining about this stuff will actually get them to listen.
>>23370230She claimed that but being looked sexually isn't the same as being stalked and the staff did address the issue by having her film less scenes with whoever was looking at her that way.
>>23370218Black was already Ichigou homage in the first place.
>>23370015They better not. If the official reveal on japanese television has english in it then might as well have a separate reveal for international audiences.
>>23370231>OutsidersAre you talking about the sheet of paper? Because if so they usually use staff pictures for those so using AI isn't a big deal and with Gozyuger it is because of the setting. Using AI isn't always morally wrong and this is a teaser that was probably not even done by the staff.
If the actual show does use AI multiple times for the backgrounds in Zeztz in the show proper then I will complain just like you but right now I feel like people are being too hasty.
>>23369681>Gozyuger announces itself as the last Sentai so they get a break as well.what?
>>23370231>The more excuses you let this company use AI, the worse it gets.I have no idea how people don't realise this. They're not using it for accuracy to the show, they're just fucking cheap.
>>23370071It was never good, people just liked it a lot because the show before it was very bad and boring. It only gets worse from where you are.
>>23369703Oh, I get it now. They animate like the Hiden Disks in Shinkenger, don't they.

>>23370023>>23370118Whatโs he gonna use it for? Most fights are on led screen and he wonโt need it.
>>23370243>Are you talking about the sheet of paper?There's a scene which features 3 different A.I. pics during a speech, Zein's Henshin sequence also seems to use a few A.I. generated landscapes to depict alternate worlds.
>>23370249Have you not been paying attention to massive outcry against AI taking jobs in America or are you acting like a retard and complaining about AI taking Japanese jobs in a thread that's dedicated to Japanese media?
>>23370249Well yeah, the west are mostly incompetent when it comes to entertainment right now so using AI won't really make a difference, specially when almost every non-indie voice actor are mentally ill for some reason, if entertainment in the west was closer to how it was 15 years ago or so then people would complain about AI usage just as much. Japan has actual talent so if they cheap out and use AI it could have catastrophic problems.
I don't see how any of this is relevant to Zeztz though, it has 3 producers and the longest pre-production period since Kuuga so arguably it should have been able to make more CGI backgrounds than King-Ohger before the show starts, the 3 AI backgrounds are scare me but hopefully this is just an one time thing.
>>23370265They shouldn't have released an official teaser that used AI in the first place
>>23370258I confused Girls Remix with Outsiders sorry.
Does anyone have a webm of the Outsiders AI pics?
>>23370268I wonder if this has anything to do with one of Toei's marketers, ADK, being bought by Korea
Does Korea uses a lot of AI? I'm not familiar with their media

>>23370265Kingohger and gavv LED scene were shite though.
Idk why TOI invent in this thing instead hiring competent CG company like Tsuburaya did.

New Character Art for the Anime
>>23370275they continue using it /because/ they already invested in it and built it up. there's little point for a company in financial peril to just up and abandon a huge tech upgrade they have just because a few viewers don't like it. it gets the job done for them and that's all that matters at the end of the day.
>>23369861>>23369703I wonder what these creatures inside the balls are going to be, specially since Yezz apparently splits the balls open
>>23370219>one shitty season is le proof that le kamen rider is le for le children
>>23370296Kamen rider is indeed for le children, including Gavv. You can enjoy it but thats still the main market. It always has been.
>>23370275>hiring competent CG company like Tsuburaya did.you keep glazing at them yet the CG opening fight on Omega premiere didn't look that good when Omega and the kaiju moving
>>23370133GOOD MORNING RIDER SIR
now that rider is going international for real this time, zesty better have a true lgbt character this time around. shouma and hanto aren't enough
>>23369676Why do you guys always do this? Anytime someone complains about Gavv you always move the goalpost to other shows.
>>23370296All mainline Kamen Rider seasons are for children they're under the kodomo category
>>23370219You talk as if every season didn't have childish stuff and as if Gotchard is hated it's because it's too kiddy
>>23369990You're implying Toei's staff had public SNS. The only known Toei's staff that's active with western fanbase on SNS is fucking Shirakura.
>>23370308>You talk as if every season didn't have childish stuffGavv certainly doesn't have enough for retards like
>>23370148>Gotchard is hated because it's too kiddyIt's one of the most common reasons why it's hated, yes. But the point isn't making them hate Gotchard (you projected hard here), it's showing them a show that's kiddy enough to remind them who the target demographic is.
I dont like Gotchard cause it uses cards for gimmicks
>>23369782The arm of Bandai handling the toys over here is pretty much dead in the water, but I can't imagine we won't get access to the toys at some point
>>23369885>>23369880I don't think it'll get dubbed right away like Ultraman is doing but if it does well enough I think Toei might do it.
>>23370006That would technically make him the fourth person to be in Sentai (PR), Rider, and Ultraman
I mean i love gavv so much, but DAMN these villain group is among the worst ever. So underutilized.
>>23369798>>23369800If you mean press conference, that's the Bandai one for toy dealers and distributors.
>>23370363I just batch of full staff. Or maybe they will release it tomorrow? You know, at the 7th of july? 7th reiwa rider?
>>23370363>>23370369That's the toy showcase, the press conference is the stream they do with the actual press where they properly reveal the staff, cast, setting and have a first proper trailer. We don't have a date for the press conference yet and they're always after the summer movie.
Next Friday is the toy showcase and a new teaser, meaning we'll just get the belt sounds at minimum and at most we'll get our first look at Yezz's rival form and maybe a look at some forms.
>>23370369Full staff reveal probably at july 11th where they reveal more about the toy or could be at press conference on august.

>>23370400Every Kamen Rider season since Den-O has sold well and Gotchard sold better than Geats, although the reason it sold better was because of adults were really into the collectable card trend at the time.
Kamen Rider still sells a lot with children, it you want to see a kid franchise that's really popular with adults but both sells poorly and its audience with kids are uneven see Sentai.

>>23369856>>23370382I didn't see the first post, the bike being able to talk sounds cool, wonder who the VA is, I assume it's a sports announcer again since I don't recognize the voice from the trailer at all
>>23370426I always like when Bandai hires sports announcers to voice drivers because they always turn out great when it happens.
>>23370425I just said that it was popular with kids anon, but the modern card trend is more of adult thing which is why Q1 had a booat, the rest of the sales after were mostly kids which shows that just like mroe Rider shows, kids love this franchise since Rainbow Dragon sold well.
I really don't get why you're pretending this franchise isn't for kids or that it sells poorly.

I don't think anyone here has posted a picture of Takasaki Sota yet, weird how much he's getting overlooked
So this is where Yanaka worked with Kami, him being an Omori-expy makes the Zeztz's staff make more sense

>>23370028That's fucking metal, I expect whatever we get as the blu-ray mini-series for Zeztz to be hardcore as fuck too
>>23370466I guess because he's the lowest rung of the Toei producers for Zeztz? It's basically a drama producer being helped by a toku producer and another drama producer, which is pretty weird for a Toei toku staff-wise.
>>23370481I could see the whole glowie angle that this show is going for working with this staff configuration at least
But it's weird that they picked an edutaiment producer for Boonboomger and two drama producers for Zeztz

>>23370536Ex-Aid, Build, Saber and Gavv. Also finish Kuuga and Den-O, and watch Ryuki, 555 and Blade as well.
>>23370517Jiip is a pathetic pushover.
>>23370530Yeah, the girl who only exists to die, the bitch with a botched character arc that loves to fight but barely fights, the jobber transvestite who just eats shit all the time, and the middle-aged guy who never does anything are amazing characters.
>>23370382What if the bike is later hacked by the Nightmages and turn against Zeztz?
>>23370610It will yell slurs in perfect english
>>23370594Correct, shitposter-kun. They are.
>>23370614(it will sing slurs)
>>23370382Thatโs cool, I thought it was just the belt sounds voice actor. I hope the bike just speaks English the whole show and everyone still understands him like in Tekken.
>>23370357Amazing suit design wasted on the blandest villain cast ever.

The countries left out to dry are Europe and Australia/New Zealand, but really it doesn't matter because this just means that subs will appear even quicker then how quick they're appearing now (though they might be a bit stiff.)
>>23370630If I was Kotaro, I would give Battle Hopper/Acrobatter a good dicking every night as a reward for their service.
>>23370643you would be doing it anyway. Thatโs how he refuels.
>>23369777In Saber, Yuri/Saikou is a shadow producer.
Yeah so you know that Viet FB page that leaks info on Zeztz and Yezz? Turn out they got access to the first two episodes since the Vietnamese distributor of Zeztz wanted to hire outside subtitle team at first, but then they stopped when they learned info security might be compromised.
So Yezz will appear very early on.

I get a lot of you are so far into sunk cost fallacy that you'll put up with anything. But you aren't actually going to watch a rider series that heavily uses gen AI, right?
>>23370980no one has sunk anything into zeztz yet since it hasn't aired or started selling toys
>>23370980I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for the teaser but if there's AI shit in the first episode I won't be getting too invested in it. I'll wait to see how the episodes are with it before they get subbed.

>>23370699>They have defined personalitiesThey're generic archetypes.
>and they contribute to the plot well.They disappeared for an entire quarter and barely done anything in general.
They're all dying not because of their own faults and flaws but the plot wants them too. Suga's baby motivation is just unresolved, Glotta finally got development and died the next episode.
>They have great suits, designs and acting with likeable actors playing them which add to their appeal. That's such a generic response. You can say that about every single character in this franchise and it still wouldn't matter if they're written poorly.
>is that they want them to be seen more.not seen but actually do something.

>>23370980I will watch it, but the use of AI will negatively impact my enjoyment tremendously. I wont officially support it though, and for the first time ever, that actually matters. I can choose to legally watch it now, but I can choose piracy out of spite.

>Drama producers could potentially get a lot of use from Kami>3 producers like King-Ohger's pre-production but actually staying this time means we could get a good variety of CGI backgrounds>The kaijin apparently get defeated on the real world so it might not be as CGI-heavy as King-Ohger >Kami is one of the best toku directors out there>Yezz's backstory of being trapped in the dream world sounds interesting >A drama producer might make the relationship between Zeztz and the secret organization closer to something like Kuuga or Drive where the side characters feel continously useful>Multiple Agent gadgets and a drama producer, implying we might have Zeztz have stealth segments like a lot of Showa era toku >Bike that both turns into a talking robot and fuses with Zeztz sounds really cool>A lesser form count could lead to older forms getting more use past Q1>The rival being the secondary could potentially eliminate Takahashi's issue of shafting the secondary>If they allow Takahashi to go serialized and not change his plans half-way through we would get something like Ex-Aid in terms of pacing>Having am older cast might not be a pipe dream, that's usually beneficial to the acting as shown with Build, Donbrothers and King-Ohger(1/2)
Its only like 1, max 2 frames in the whole trailer, these could just be cutting corners a bit on barely visible shots, its too early to be doomposting like this
>>23370915>>23371064But I also fear
>The staff might try to be too tryhard edgy>Producer might be a normalfag which could lead to shitty music and lack of insert songs>Takahashi isn't really good at writing villains on his own, he usually needs someone to tardwrangle him to put out good villains, I don't know if Yanaka would do that>Less toys could lead to this season selling badly>This season seemingly getting a higher budget could lead to the next season being cheaper>We might get a drama action director that might shafts toku action battles for out of suit battles and drama, basically a more extreme case of King-Ohger's second half. But honestly I doubt that I'm almost certain that we'll get NabeJun again>Releasing the shows officially on YouTube could potentially lead to Kamen Rider being far tamer like some of Toei's Anime, but so far Toei has managed to release some toku episodes on YouTube without any issue so I'm hopeful it will stay that way>We might get a really shitty subber, but so far Tokushoutsu and Ultraman get the job done without doing any retarded shit, so while they aren't as good as fansubs I can probably live with it>We might get AI LED backgrounds which could lead to Zeztz feeling really generic>The motif seems to be random shit + animal again, which sucks because Build, Geats and Gotchard weren't that long ago and every Reiwa Rider except Gavv has had animals as a centerpiece>Zeztz being based on Ichigo doesn't feel special because of how many homages we've gotten as of late>Too soon for another Takahashi season so a lot of tropes might overlap(2/2)

The texture of the helmet looks weird, is it supposed to be a bike helmet?
>>23370980I'll give it a fair try. If the show itself and not just the PV is heavy on AI, I'll not watch(if it sucks) or pirate it instead of watching on the official channels.
But I'm most likely just going to take yet another yearlong break like with Saber.
>>23370980do we know if it was completely generated with AI or was it AI assisted?
>>23371084>is it supposed to be a bike helmet?Have I got news for you about what Kamen Rider is
>>23371096Retard I'm talking if the reason it looks weird is because it's a bike visor painted over, we haven't gotten a Kamen Rider protagonist with an actual bike visor on his main form. Also in other shots the chin looks different confusing me even more on the paintjob.
>>23371093There are 3 AI backgrounds in the teaser, otherwise the rest are live-action backgrounds or CGI. Zeztz himself is live-action during the whole teaser.
>>23371093There's backgrounds that are full on AI, the suit itself looks like something shat out by an AI and refined by human artists
>>23371104i meant the Zeztz' suit.
>>23371109The suit of fully live-action, if you mean the design itself we have no idea but I doubt they made it using AI
What kind of westerner are we expecting for Zeztz's agent organization?
>Guy that doesn't know English that gets continuously bullied by the cast but somehow becomes one of the most badass characters in the show
>Helpful sidekick with a romance subplot
>Antagonistic asshole that might become a Rider later
>Retired Rider that's mostly a semi-recurring background character and world-building set piece who we'll never see actually fight
>Zeztz news, seems like at the very least it will be unique
>Tojima news, looking good so far
>Puniru is back
>Gavv/Gozyuger have been a mostly solid SHT
>Actual best case scenario for Jojo's staff
>Mushoku teaser looks good
>Ghost in the Shell teaser looks good
>Yomi no Tsugai Anime got announced and it has a good staff
>Vermilion Mask Anime announced with a good staff
>Extra confirmation that Murata is the fault of One Punch Man's issues
>Comfy streams by Made In Abyss author, new chapter soon
Only problem is that there are so many good shows releasing this season, specially on Sunday which overlaps with SHT that I don't know how I'll find time to watch all of these, otherwise this was an extremely comfy weekend
Honestly, Zeztz really does like they just went and prompted "make the coolest looking Kamen Rider ever made, inspired by the original Kamen Rider" into an AI and changed the final result a bit.
>>23371157Yea i also love making shit up to get upset at
AI puritans are so funny because they'll call anything and everything AI and maybe 1 out of 10 times be right about it
>>23371166>thinking they didn't actually do this on some level
>>23371173They will be right, the problem is the dumbasses who are too retarded to actually notice always say "uh seems fine to me bro" like (you)
>>23371178Blusky is that way faggot >
>>23371173>>23371178Both of you are retards on the extreme, using Ai isn't necessarily a bad thing and so far the way Toei have used it has been inoffensive, if we do get a lot of AI backgrounds for Zeztz it might be a problem because it could make so of the episodes feel generic since the story's focus are on exploring dreams. However people act like 4 seconds of AI backgrounds on a teaser that might have not even been made by the staff is decisive proof that the show will use AI and are already talking like niggers acting like them pirating it now will somehow have an effect on the franchise.
I don't get why people from the US like to have extreme opinions, immediately jump the shark and never properly research anything, it always like they're looking for whatever petty excuse to get mad at. Well, at least they're not SEA I guess.
>>23371184The argument is that you're a faggot claiming the sky is falling because of some shitty modeling work for an advertisement
Comment on Nyelv's Granute form by the suit's designer: https://twitter.com/tam2shino/status/1941867070213571011
>I think many people were surprised that Nielv's monster form is unexpectedly massive, but the idea is that he has biologically modified himself to achieve that (the fang-like things on his shoulders and thighs are also added weapons).
>When I originally drew him, I didnโt expect he would become such a "modification enthusiast", but considering that, I think it makes sense.
>>23371243The announcement trailer should be aiming to put the best foot forward so there is legitimate reason to be concerned if they're allowing that to be half-assed in a significant and noticeable way.
>>23371243>might have not even been made by the staffIrrelevant since they looked it over and said "yup, that's fine" and officially uploaded it to the internet. If they weren't okay with using AI in the actual show they sure as fuck wouldn't have given it a pass for the teaser.
>>23371252>>23371257It's still just 4 seconds of footage, most of the teaser was real or CGI
I don't see the Japanese complaining that much since they're probably actually going to wait for the conference to see if they have to complain or not
>>23371173If a design is so uninspired or the backgrounds are so shoddy that several people mistake it for AI, it just means they did an awful job.
And there is no "AI purists" Raj, no one wants to watch literal slop (other than your pajeet ass).
>>23371064>>A lesser form count could lead to older forms getting more use past Q1Gavv proved that even if the side forms are fewer, they will remain as underused as ever.
>>23371260Is there any anti-thread up for Zeztz?
>>23371264I think you're just a retard shitflinger trying to kill Rider's push before it starts, just like every other time they've put their foot in the west
>>23371274This one has seemingly even less and the weird staff makes me question how will they promote toys
>>23371264Have we ever gotten actual indians on /m/ besides that Ubisoft one? I can't remember any
>>23371283>This one has seemingly even lessIt's only one less than Gavv, not counting the limited promo that is Bushel.
>>23370980I want them to lean into the Gen AI aesthetic very hard. Make it obvious that everything is close to reality, and yet fake as hell. That Uncanny Valley feeling would give the showsโ dream world a very unique tone.
>>23371264>mistake it for AI
>>23371282You're correct, no one wants more Black Sun or Arturo Hiden, much less the shit other nip companies like Capcom have been doing.
>>23371284We'll never know t for real but every AI slurper is some breed of streetshitter in my book.
>>23369600I mean it's a pretty dang good looking suit. It's kinda surprising how minimal the belt is and the design doesn't even feel like an homage but rather gives rebooted #1 feel. The slim, revamped #1 design also kinda gives me ZO/Zero-One vibes and I'm kinda surprised they didn't save this design for an anniversary instead.
I do kinda share the sentiment about being tired of #1 homage designs being overdone and it kinda feels weird that a non-anniversary show uses the first color scheme of #1 and Cyclone for Zeztz and his bike. But it is undeniably a great color scheme and Zeztz's suit uses it beautifully.
I am worried about Takahashi and even more about Minato, but I'm really hoping the new main producer and Kami being involved will bring promise.
>>23371064>>Having am older cast might not be a pipe dream, that's usually beneficial to the acting as shown with Build, Donbrothers and King-OhgerAnd Saber as well.
>>23371321I thought Rintaro, Kento and Mei were around the usual age range
>>23371283It has confirmed three Q1 forms which isn't significantly lower than Gavv (which is 4 forms with Fuwamallow getting ignored after its initial use), and the fourth form leaked is suggested to be a q1 upgrade form so it seemingly would still be following the same form structure.
Gavv was able to capitalize on Gochizo variants (and the writing encouraging collecting duplicates if you really want to) to cover for a lower overall form count but Capsems don't seem to be designed to follow suit, of the one we've seen it's kind of tricky to even see what's going on inside of it.
Also there's the example of series like Gaim and Ex-Aid where the main Rider only having 1-2 Q1 forms still can end up with them being underused.
>>23371339The whole Main Trio was around their mid-20s. Mei, Ren, Legeiel and Sora's actors were the only members of the cast that were in their early 20s or younger.
>>23371354>Mei, Ren, Legeiel and Sora's actors were the only members of the cast that were in their early 20s or younger.Oh, and Daishinji's as well.
>>23371354>>23371361I didn't know that, thanks. I wonder what led Takahashi-P to get an older cast
>>23371068The music is one of my biggest fears too. I loved Build but I really hated the OST, it was extremely unmemorable and I'm scared that Yanaka will do a similar approach for the music
>>23371377Prepare for generic epic hollywood action style music
Shake it Off is jist gonna play in one episode won't it? It's a decent song to change shake things up a bit. The Sakabe ost is serviceable, but not as good as his 01 or King Ohger for me.
Looking at Zeztz's back better now it looks like he has a fake scarf engraved in the back, I assume they'll pull out to become the orange wings that were mentioned.
I wonder if the wings will be get an actual mold or if they'll be CGI whenever they're on-screen
>>23371381Kamen Rider already does that
>>23371381This is a japanese kids show anon
>>23371377Kawai Kenji has a really distinctive style even if I'm not personally in love with it. Though I did really appreciate the character themes and they were used in the right ways to be memorable.
>>23371412Yeah I enjoy some of his anime music but for Build his music was really forgettable for some reason
Does anyone remember what color/lemon said about the final boss P-Bandai belt? Wasn't there a sketch of it too?
>>23371419They just did a really rough sketch that showed it was red and a retool of Gavv's belt, they also said it comes with two Gochizos but they didn't say anything more. People think this is the movie belt with another faceplate.

>>23371468Nakagawa, Sakabe, Sahashi
>>23371468Tsuneyoshi Saito's work with Kiva was incredible. I still listen to Wake Up to pick me up form time to time.
>>23371468I'd say Nakagawa is strongest all-around, especially for making a soundtrack.
>>23371344>>23371283Yeah, the main issue is that you still have an upgrade at the end of Q1 that's supposed to stand above the previous forms. The only way you don't get forms being underused is just if you make the upgrade so underwhelming it basically doesn't count (like Gavv's Blizzard Sorvet getting kind of sidelined by Gavv Caking when he isn't using either base or final form in recent episodes).
>>23371148The CGI horses in SBR will look worse than any CGI in even Rider, is this really still a victory?
>>23371468Nakagawa and Naruse because of Drive.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpxKjRZUATw
>>23371478I think some of the best uses for Q1 upgrade forms are the ones to work with the Q1 forms, even if that style tends to be in bad seasons.
Stuff like Wizard Dragon, Ghost Boost and Fire Gotchard.
>>23371468I donโt care, kamen rider music is always awesome. All I want is actual inserts this time, Gavv fumbled that bag.
>>23371468I want something similar to Shinkichi Mitsumune's Speed Grapher and for the opening to be done by m-flo featuring a rock band
My favorite composer is definitely Kotaro Nakagawa
>>23371120The Dragon Knight duo appear as minor villains for a couple of episdes
>>23371490Yeah? Part 5 didn't have that much CGI so they'll most likely find a way to mitigate it
>>23371496>Wizard DragonThe Dragon forms were an awful idea since they completely superseded the base versions. There was absolutely no practical reason not to use the Dragon versions. Ghost Boost was in a similar boat.
The absolute best form format(s) were W and OOO, where the Q1 forms continued to be used for utility reasons, the mid-season form has some sort of unique advantage(s) and the final form is the big powerhouse.
>>23371490CGI horses are only necessary if they're drawing tons of horses at once (and in those cases the knights/riders on them are 3d too) which isn't an issue during most of SBR. Most anime when doing quick shots of horses do them in 2d, not 3d, unlike with cars and other vehicles.
>>23371503Only way to make side forms relevant again is to get rid of super forms.
Toei Tokusatsu World Official uploaded the Zeztz teaser: https://youtu.be/zGKksxBjCOQ
This means that we'll most likely have them doing the official subs for Zeztz. How are their subs?
I'm at least glad that we aren't getting Remow which means that the franchise won't get censored or made less skimpy/bloody for worldwide releases.
>>23371502And Part 6 has shown DP's QC for animation has greatly deteriorated since then.
>>23371519Canโt wait to shitpost in the official Zeztz comment section.
>>23371521That was a batch release and a different director that hasn't done anything of note, he mostly works on storyboards or management, he's doing 7's management actually. But the shows where he's the main animation director are the worst looking shows of the studio.
>>23371519Skimming through a few episodes their seems like Tokushoutsu's, which is to say decent subs that get the job done, but it's probably better to get the opinion of someone who has watched a full episode of them.
>>23371519You could just take a look at their 1-2 episode releases for each show. i.e.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOuJYKUvdHY
Will Toei get a Miss Magazine to be Zeztzโs heroine?
>>23371519>skimpy/bloodyLike thereโs much of that in Gavv
Lango will survive in the end and become a CaveFriend like Uncle Dente.
>>23371555Unironically wouldn't mind that. Rest of the family can get put down like dogs by Shouma though
>>23371546>they say henshinThank God
>>23371556Why? Lango's as much of a piece of shit as the rest of them, he even fucking murdered Hanto's mom.
>>23371560I don't think it'll happen. I just happen to like Lango a bit more than the rest for whatever reason
>>23371557Couple problems with being captions is anything that needs translator notes or typesetting though. They seem to leave jingles completely untranslated too. Timing of the lines can be a bit wonky too (like in those Build episodes)

They didn't announce Zeztz music composer yet because the music will be generated with AI.
>>23371571Kizuna Ai bros, we live!!
>Whale is taking the year off because Zeztz is officially licensed
>he gets a well-deserved break away from the sub scene
>no one else touches it due to the unspoken "hands off licensed stuff" rule among fansubbers
>official subs are machine translated
Screenshot this post
>>23371571What won't be generated with AI in Zeztz?
>>23371578>He doesn't know
>>23371568They seem like simple enough issues that a nyaa scrub could fix at least
>>23371575If the subs are like the YouTube channel they seem normal enough and both Whale and Ei were going to take a break anyway this year, so if we hadn't gotten the official subs we would have to be stuck with Geo, TV-nihon or wait for an anon to save us

Pointless question: so do /m78/ fags generally watch the official release straight off jewtube or does someone still rip a version with official subs to put on catsite like subsplease does with anime subbed by CR that they download (and those caught streaming are looked down upon like with every other type of genre)?
>>23371597both.

>>23371597I downloaded Z but ever since Trigger I just watched them knowing the channel will keep the show on anyway, but the recent Ultraman episode uploads by other accounts getting purged made me think to archive episodes again.

>>23371597The YouTube releases have lower quality, Tsuburaya puts up higher quality versions on their subscription streaming site. Ultrafags usually watch the episodes on YouTube first, and if they want a better quality release they download the episodes ripped from Tsuburaya's streaming service.
>>23371068>>23371377Here's the kind of music you can expect from Yanaka-P judging by what he has worked on before:

>>23371627what's wrong with that
>>23371627Stop being retarded on purpose
Those two aren't from avex
>>23371612Thatโs so 2010. Kids listen to phonk these days.
>>23371627Oh no a popular artist that makes great songs I'm gonna criiiiiinge
>>23371627Nobody tell anon who sang the OP for Decade, Gaim, Ex-Aid, Zero-One, Geats, and Gavv.
>>23371631Possible if it's a collaborative work like Back On and Flow for Gotchard OP.
Action choreography will also be AI generated.
Zeztz looks so much better in edits with a masher jaw. I really don't like his helmet.
>>23371597I always download and keep the shows. Maybe it's just because I'm a bit older, but I for one can't fathom how people live off exclusively streaming services. There's a certain comfort in knowing I always have the shows when I want/need them without having to rely on streaming/internet services
>>23371635>great songs>>23371638>comparing GACKT or TM Revolution to those 2Gavv's OP is probably the worst of those listed and it's still far less grating to listen to compared to the best YOASOBIslop on any given day.
>>23371635YOASOBI is so overrated. Not to mention oversaturated after she got uber popular
>zeztz ends up being serious
>becomes successful
>all shows afterwards are all made to be serious
Say goodbye to quirky forms and designs.
>>23371625I wasn't expecting Kasouken no Onna's OST to sound like that nor for it to be done by Kenji Kawai. That OST sounds awesome, really what happened with Build that made it sound so generic aside from inserts.
I guess Kenji Kawai is the likeliest pick for a composer right now. I really hope we get inserts.
>>23371670Stop being retarded on purpose, Build was successful yet we still get quirky shows. It really depends on the producer and as long as Matsuura and Takebe are around we'll still get crazy out there ideas.
>>23371670Zero-One was the second most successful Rider season of all time in terms of sales yet we got designs like Saber, Gavv or the crazy CGI shit from Revice and Gotchard. Stop making up nonsensical scenarios to get mad at.
>>23371671>Stop being retarded on purpose, Build was successful yet we still get quirky showsYou should as well, Build was a quirky show.
>>23371676Zero one was quirky as hell though.
>>23371627I don't get why they get so much hate on 4chan, they're definitely massively overrated and don't deserve most of the awards they got but I liked Yoasobi'd music from Beastars or some of their earlier stuff like Yoru ni Kakeru. Similarly I like every Anime song that Creepy Nuts have done aside from their Dandadan song.
Either way it's not like we'll ever get either of them because they aren't from avex.
>>23371676>Stop making up nonsensical scenarios to get mad atPeople overreact too much in /krg/. There's that one anon that gets very angry at jokes or opinions.
Also Zero-One was the most "cool" Reiwa show in terms of designs. It was not quirky at all.
>>23371680Zero-One is another Ichigo homage and the suits try the whole "modern simplistic" tech look just like Zeztz, the anon said "forms and designs" not series' tone.
Just get AI to use the voice of Aniki.
Which suit's reject is Zeztz?
So how does this work, they leave the new episode up on their channel for the entire week?
Wonder of the presscon will be pre-recorded like Geats and Gavv or live like the rest
>>23371704I would say if the episodes are being put on the TTW channel it'll be like how the Tsuburaya channel does it with their Ultraman episodes most likely.
>>23371625The music from Sato's shows are really damn weird but I like the one from Yanaka's. So I guess this show will have good music like most of this franchise after all
>>23371692Who actually asked for this
>>23371706The gozyuger one was live
>>23371712it was obviously coming like all the other marketable things
>>23371670>Say goodbye to quirky forms and designs
>>23371613Stay mad saberfag
>>23371714Even this one was recorded.
They just held the presscon a day before the recorded version went public.
>>23371670Both serious and whacky designs have been proven to leave a lot of money, why would they be stupid enough to drop one for the other instead of mixing things up like they have always done?
>>23371712the seiyuu pigs
>>23371724Because this will air in the west, birthrate in japan is declining with less kids to buy toys, so they aim for a wider market. Stuff like Zyuohger and Toqger was basically a no go for PR adapation. Everyone loves Marvel in America and Japan so they figure make the designs look "cool" majority wise.

>>23371732>birthrate in japan is declining with less kids to buy toys, so they aim for a wider marketZero-One is the second best selling season and that wasn't too long ago, Gotchard was last year and it almost reach Build levels of sales, Gavv's problems with its sales are underproduction and Japan's declining birth rate isn't as bad as other Asian countries. Kamen Rider continues to be one of the most financially successful franchises that Toei has ever made, most of Disney's IPs are bleeding money due to how mismanaged they're right now, weird Japanese shit continues to get official subs in the west anyway and the main goal for Toei will always be the Asian market.
Just because this season is catering to the west to ease new fans in it doesn't mean this will become the norm from now on. As always wether we get something whacky or not depends on the producer.
>>23371750Kabuto is getting an anniversary movie so maybe sooner than you think
>>23371764>Gavv's problems with its sales are underproduction And also the fact that the toys are lame and girly.
>>23371764>Japan's declining birth rate isn't as bad as other Asian countries.If a terminal patient has 3 months left to live and another one has just 1 month, you think the former's situation isn't dire just because the latter has it even worse? All major east Asian countries are cooked in terms of population growth.
>>23371750Tendou is Strongest.
>>23371721Cry harder, butthurt schizo-kun.
>>23371781All major first world countries, more like.
It's just more noticeable in East Asia because they haven't yet committed to "import people from the third world to obfuscate the birth rate problems" like the other nations.
>>23371793I thought they sounded terrible since hearing the leaks and yes, it also looks terrible now.

>>23371683>Either way it's not like we'll ever get either of them because they aren't from avex.Is ALI a part of avex? I would die if get a rider opening like Wild Side or Lost in Paradise
Is
>>23371781Bro, have you even looked at South Korea's birthrate? Now THAT's a disaster. And really, Western countries are actually in the same boat, only offset by immigration so the population growth numbers don't look as bad on paper.
>>23371845My favorite songs from them is Professionalism and Muzik City, they're great. Sadly they aren't from avex, they're independent, I don't know if that makes it easier or harder to get them to do the opening. The only relation ALI has to toku is that their original rapper was a character in Kamen Rider Black Sun.
>>23371851Did your stupid ass miss the point of the analogy? Korea's situation being terrible doesn't automatically make Japan's not pretty bad. At this rate, both are going to disappear, one just sooner than the other.
>>23371862>that their original rapper was a character in Kamen Rider Black Sun.That's enough to tell me it's possible
I will now cope and hope that zeztz will get an opening by ALI
Clearly the OP should be done by Maximum the Horomone
>>23371781It isn't that bad and you're missing the entire point, Kamen Rider still sells well, and both dark and goofy seasons have sold well. Your claim that if Zeztz is successful would mean that they'll suddenly drop experimentation makes no sense and you have nothing to base that upon.
>>23371872That's not avex either, like really if you guys want to shitpost picks that make some sense say the Oppa Gang Style guy whatever he's called who's part of avex and now that a Korean company bought one of the main advertisers of Kamen Rider, who's comfirmed by the staff listing to still be involved with Zeztz and with that artist being known outside of Japan, it would be the perfect meme choice for Zeztz's OP artist.
>>23371872What's rock/punk bands under Avex?
Which avex or Kamen Rider artist would pair well enough with m-flo for them to make a banger like this again?:
https://youtu.be/XDPdmgN-dtM
m-flo is from avex and one of the members did a song for Ride Kamens. With Yanaka having worked on both Ex-Aid and Build it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to pick something similar to Beverly and Daichi Miura
>>23371883Out of the top of my head
>tricot>Back-On>D>Nightmare>Do As Infinity>Kishidan>Wagakki BandAnd Pillows but they just disbanded
>>23371878No one's going to go through Avex's talent registry for a shitpost dude, and most people aren't going to go through it to verify a clearly obvious shitpost either. A shitpost is a contract between the shitposter and shitpost consumer that all things within a shitpost aren't to be taken seriously or researched thoroughly.
>>23371511Nah, they just need to get creative and come up with scenarios where the side forms' utility outweighs the raw power the super forms bring. Or just give the side forms line-wide upgrades ala the Rising Forms.
>>23371889But wouldn't PSY doing a Kamen Rider opening cause a massive melty here and isn't it kinda scary that it isn't outside of the realm of possibility?
>>23371897You sound like a fucking idiot. Shut the fuck up
So the likeliest choices for the OP are?
>D because Dream
>Nightmare because dreams
>Monkey Majik because they can sing in English, are hardcore tokusatsu fans, partially voiced the Zero-One driver and did the themes for the Zero-One V-Cinemas
>AAA because it's the most popular avex artist worldwide and they clearly aren't opposed to bringing whole bands back since they brought Shonan no Kaze again, albeit featuring Koda Kumi
>We The Band because they sing on fluent English
>>23371886Rider chips
We need something like "What's your fire" but in a takahashi show
>>23371906I don't think they would have neither Kamen Rider Girls or Rider Chips as performers for the opening themes because of how easy they're to get, which is why they've only gotten them for insert songs
>>23371801you must be OP of this thread, right?
fuck off with your bullshit this general have rules you know

>>23369593 (OP)>We're 8 years into Reiwa already>Yet another Ichigo homage>Revice already did the "forms being based on past riders" gimmickThey've de everything on the power so that if they do a crossover season for Reiwa's 10th it wouldn't feel special anymore. I really hope the 10th anniversary does something like Boukenger or Fourze where they generally homage the franchise as a whole but not that directly.
>>23371910nta but I think it would be fine for a feature, Rider Chips + m-flo sounds like a power combo

>>23371951The information distribution with Zeztz has been really weird so far, to the toy stores they used to codename "Metal Rider" and now they don't reveal anyone from the style besides the producers

The opening they did for digimon ghostgame tells me they can probably do something with the whole dream idea

Sadly he was one of the most unlikeable and nonsensical characters from that show
>>23371960They can't because they're from Nippon Columbia and doing Gozyuger's OP right now, so having them for Zeztz would cause overlap which is something they'll try to avoid

>>23371931The shoes kind of reminds me of Boonboomger's.
>>23371951He does exist and appears very early on. People I know that have been in contact with Zeztz's official distributor in Vietnam already got access to the first 2 episodes and they all said there was another dude with half-silver suit.
>>23371931It's really him...
>>23371931>>23371928The entire suit is "airtight", no armor plates, everything is sewed together. Only the shoes a a separate piece. It would suck major ass if this suit got damaged early on.
>>23371931Really wonder how the alternate forms are going to look. Them having two tones of the same color feels dumb and I have to wonder if the musculature will remain throughout every forms due to the chest belt
>>23371994My theory is forms will add different styles and layouts of armor plates on the default costume
>>23371936Getting two old men protagonists this year alongside a Kabuto anniversary movie and whatever the hell the Den-O thing is feels weird
>>23371931This suit is gonna look so wonky after 40+episodes of action. Guess the entire thing is just light foam, this is probably the lightest rider suit ever. The fighting style will be agile as fuck.

>>23369593 (OP)Is Saber the most forgettable Reiwa rider?
>>23372141I'd say overall Gotchard is.
>>23372141Gotchard still is, the show trying to be so overtly safe like Ryusoulger causes almost every good idea to feel half-baked and not memorable.
Even though Gotchard isn't a bad show it's easily the most middling Rider season ever.
>>23372141On the contrary, it's one of the most memorable. Hell, all the Reiwa shows are extremely memorable save for Gotchard and maybe Gavv. Keep in mind that memorableโ good though.
>>23372153It's hard to say wether Gavv will be memorable or not because the show isn't over yet, but so far I find it memorable. I find generally every Rider season to be memorable aside from Black RX, Wizard and Gotchard
>>23372153Gavv is plenty memorable. The main cast is great, Shouma's story is interesting, the mix of the theme of sweets/snacks with a fairly dark story is fun.
>>23371931He doesnโt look friendly
>>23372179Kamen Riders are monsters, they aren't supposed to look friendly even if they actually are
But the chin pattern seemingly changing shape is making it t even harder for me to predict what kind of personality he'll have
>>23372153Gavv is plenty memorable. A lot of just the dialogue scenes stick with me. And it's hard to forget the way above average fight choreo/direction

>>23372204Why did the editor give spiderman a bulge?
>>23372216Saber and Den-O make a nice symmetrical pose together.
>>23372220Hadn't noticed that, seems to be intentional on the game staff
>>23372153Skipped Gotchard but Saber was about as memorable as any of the axebait Jump puts down in under a year. I just remember it as a mess with a couple of fantastic episodes directed by Kami.
Gavv is plenty memorable with 3 really good riders and character arcs. There's a bit of fat in terms of plot progression but it's really easily the best Reiwa show.
Least memorable I'd say was Geats. Revice fucked up so badly it's painfully seared into memory. Geats had good action and flash but I don't think the characters or story were standouts.
>>23372227nta but wow I literally agree with everything you've said to the point it's scary, believe Gotchard is more forgettable than Geats if you ever give it a try but Geats is the second most forgettable Reiwa season.
lemon: Actually, it is a hard capsule, not a softgel capsule
>Has the naming method changed to 'small props' this time? What about that old pile from the Heisei eraโare they belts?
lemon: This is not a Rider capsule after all
>So will there be both hard capsules and soft capsules? Are they identified as the same entity or as different individuals?
lemon: Different
>>23372234Zeztz just looks so naked without the proper waist belt. It's the same sort of odd impression I got way back in the day with the Gekiranger suits
>>23372234Zero-One, Gavv and Zeztz feel so similar yet so different I don't know how to explain it.
>>23372236The two lines going down near his hips make the suit less naked looking IMO. This kind of feeling is most likely one of the main points drilled on within PLEX meetings.
>>23372240Gavv is literally just purple Zero One concept.
>>23372236Yeah I hate it, it looks like those shifty "toku inspired" costume designs that westerners do for their games or comics that always for get the belt when 99% of riders have belts and 90% of sentai teams have belts. The one that passed me off the most was the batman one. One of the heroes known for having a belt NOT having a proper belt.
>>23372234Looking at all of them besides each other Zeztz's proportions stand the fuck out. I don't think I've seen a suit actor so distractingly yoked since GokaiBlue's suit actor whenever he gokaichanged into Big One
>>23372247Those are supposed to be toku inspired?
>>23372246I know but the texture usage and the shift of animals makes him look noticeably different and Zeztz breaks a lot of the standard conventions that go when designing a Rider suit. Yet I can't unsee Zero-One in them for some reason I can't explain, specially with Zeztz which most likely isn't the same situation as Gavv.
>>23372236Weโve had naked-er
>>23372251Yes, but I can't even tell you what the comic was about because I didn't care for the designs that much.
>>23372256Jesus these don't look toku at all, the only toku comparison I can pull off is that the shape of Batman's helmet vaguely resembles a Makai Knight but that's a massive stretch.
>>23372251Aside from the grasshopper stuff, Zeztz heavily resembles Revi Neo Batta. That might be why you're seeing Zero One in it.
>>23372247Tried generating one based of the Beyond suit and this was the best of the lot. Jason and Dick's suits look pretty good imo.
>>23372247lol Batman Beyond passes better for "toku-inspired" than this shit
>>23372227Wow, I haven't read a post so wrong in a long while.
>>23372141It still amazes me that even after Revice and Gotchard, there's still anons autistically clinging on to the Saber bad meme.
>>23372153Gavv is very memorable and even though a lot of people are caught up in the lull it's in, it's still solid and consistent. Gotchard had some cool stuff but I'd agree that if anything that's definitely the most forgettable Reiwa show.
>>23372301Personally I think that Gavv has gotten a bit lullsy ever since Dente died for real. He was a heart of the show for me and I miss his presence.
>>23372302I think Dente needed to die for the sake of stakes, he was the most obvious and safe choice to kill off among the good guys, although I'm not really pleased with the circumstances in which he died. But him being gone really highlights how small Gavv's hero cast is.
>>23372247>>23372256I really want to know what reference material do these people use to design these
>>23372303I wish we got to hear his last words at least, but alas he was just a corpse on the ground.
I hate when someone with a similar opinion to me is annoying as fuck.
It'd obviously be much better if they paid someone do the actually interesting backgrounds for Zeztz, but of course Twitter has to pretend 2-4 background images is the worst thing ever, Even worst because I know it'll just be forgotten like the Boonboomger teaser images in a few weeks.
Anyways, I'm guessing Gavv will end with Shouma introducing actual human candy to the Granute world in some way, it'd be cool if when he defeats Stomach Inc. he reforms it back into a legit candy company.
>>23372310>it'll just be forgottenNah, they won't stop bringing it up until the season ends and they'll treat the people watching it like hitler
>>23372317>Mass Tokutuber bullying for the entirety of ZeztzToo good to be true, so it probably won't happen.
>>23371936>>23371996the age of old man yaoi toku
>>23372256Off topic, but the fake belt thing was triggering my autism too hard and the squinty eyes.
>>23372329A 3/10 to a 6 or 7/10 with just one tweak.
>>23372329Looks much more toku hero-esque now.
I dunno why so many western artists that draw toku hero inspired costumes always make them wrong, like not having a specific driver or brace on their person or the helmet looking odd. At least with this one the belt could have some kind of slim thing inserted into it so he can transform.
>>23372240I get what you're saying, but I fail to explain it as well. Best I've got is that the armor placement is similar and the chest is designs look familiar
>>23372240They're all different flavors of generic.
>>23372233Gochizo capsule
>>23372007Also, if you're trying to translate chinese, better use google translate
>>23372358I could see a Capsem with a little gochizo graphic in it for sure.
>>23372449Slot for the dream ticket?
Anyone else had that dream of a rider who the belt across his chest like a sling bag? I could the bike talking to me was trying to seduce me.
>>23372467You should probably thank him because you could've been braindead right now if he wasn't in your dream
If the Suit Actor also being the face actor is true. I hope for one or two scenes of Zeztz taking off his helmet will transformed. I always appreciate that in Toku shows.
