The “Decade” is Over; Get Ready for “Kamen Rider W”
| September 6, 2009 |
Decade wraps up for a new Kamen Rider…already!
UPDATE 7/3: It’s finally been officially announced. Kamen Rider W begins on September 6 in Japan. Official site is here.
It feels like yesterday we were singing the virtues of Kamen Rider Decade, and now these new production photos have leaked of a new show being filmed called Kamen Rider W.
We’re sure you see the Kikaider reference in the split outfit but the horns and big eyes maintain all the insect-goodness we love about Kamen Rider. This is the 11th Rider in the new Hesei Rider series. No dates yet but we’re expecting this in the Fall of 2009.
Some interesting rumour tidbits we lifted from Henshin Justice Unlimited:
- W has an insect motif, most likely a grasshopper. He resembles Kikaider, in the sense that his right and left sides are differently colored. His right side is red, and his left side is green. Each side has a different character/personality.
- W is transformed from 2 people, who combine to form the rider. Their names are Shotarou and Phillip
- W’s henshin device is a USB which is inserted into his belt to transform him. Has a gimmick known as the “Treasure Gaost” which allows him to change forms.
- Has the ability to change forms. These forms are activated by the “Joker Memories”. USB keys that activate different forms. 3 of these forms are known as “Luna Joker”, “Cyclone Joker” and “Heat Joker”.
- Kamen Rider W Cyclone Joker is Black and Green in coloring.
- W transforms into Heat Joker in the Decade Movie.
- W has a both a motorcycle and a car.
- W aims to be the “Number 1 Rider” of the Second Half of Hesei Riders.
- Seems to have a relation to ShadowMoon. When Decade is cornered by him in the movie, W shows up to save him
- Keywords having to do with W are “Wind”, “2 People” and “Clan”
- Broadcasting is rumored to start on 9/6
- 8/15 to 8/23 have been listed as filming dates for the show
- His enemies are much closer to the sentai variety- a group of villains that stay a constant from the beginning of the series
