It's now time of the year where we will get rumors for the 2013 Kamen Rider series. There are two current rumors circulating within Japanese internet communities. One is called Kamen Rider Succeed, while the other is Kamen Rider Break. Let's check them out below:
Kamen Rider Break is said to have circular things around the joints and ears. Its base color is yellow and design seems to resembles that of Iron Man and Kamen Rider Eternal. A sketch (right) was made based on the description.
Meanwhile, Kamen Rider Succeed will be a college agricultural and biotech student. The series' lead female character would be a flower shop assistant and there would be a giant robot called Plantroid. The title would be a pun on the saku, which means “to slice,” and seed.
Previous rumors for Succeed (which seems to be different from the current ones) states that the helmet had a crown design, the crown is "cracked", coloring red and silver. The rider's name seems to come from the act of "succeeding to the throne."
It is just a matter of time before we can get confirmed information on the new Kamen Rider's name. Kamen Rider OOO's trademark was revealed on May 29th, 2010; Kamen Rider Fourze's on May 19th, 2011; and, Kamen Rider Wizard's on June 21st, 2012.

Toei will make a rider series with a female lead when pigs fly.
Looks like kamen rider agito with gills face mask that bottom looks like iron man like it says in the article
Now this is interesting. If these rumors are true, it looks like the writers are going back to basics a little. I'm excited!
kamen rider with iron man flavour?
Kamen Rider Decade [Number 1]
Kamen Rider W [Number 2]
Kamen Rider OOO [Number 3]
Kamen Rider Fourze [Number 4]
Kamen Rider Wizard [Number 5]
??????????? [Number 6]
The number five wasn't very prominent in Wizard, will they drop it this year?
im betting that the next kamen rider will have a cameo apperance in the kamen rider wizard movie this summer.
Succeed gives me the impression that he'd be a Rider with a plant motif, given the description about it. Anyway, I'm definitely going to keep my eyes peeled on this, as long as the next Rider series will be worth watching and the main Rider decent to look at.
I hope its the one about throne succession. That seems like the coolest idea.
I like this comment
More likely they'll implement 5 this year because Wizard is more like an apology for Fourze.
The problem for Fourze is that it was too kiddy and mediocre and the writers were either lazy (Nakashima who has a huge hard on for Meteor) or couldn't give a shit less about what happens next (Sanjo and Hasegawa) and Meteor upstaging the main character.
Wizard's 5 refers to 5 fingers of each hand. The next rider's 6 is hard to imagine... If i use my fingers to count to 6, it ends on my thumb. Maybe a fingerprint scanner?
Man, I'd really like a Rider with a plant motif.
That other concept art for the helmet looks like a cross between Kamen Rider and Casshern.
So Ren who waz Hina in OOO or Yuki in Fourze?
They were the female lead!
That doesnt mean the Rider will be female.
Let's hope this series will actually have a plot and character development, that is severely lacking in Wizard.
Wizard is the definition of mediocrity. Let's hope this Rider isn't a bland mess that its predecessor was.
C'mon guys. A sequel to Faiz will happen if we chant loud enough!
Wizard already broke the whole number theme that was occurring with the series. Wizard using 5 fingers doesn't even correspond to the number 5. Don't all kamen riders use all 5 fingers to henshin? You guys are just forcing yourself now. The trend already went back to one with the single ring henshin.
Now onto to the new kamen rider 2013. I hope that these rumors are true for a hi tech kamen rider. My favorite riders have always been the science and advance technology types like Faiz and Kabuto. Plus a hi-tech rider will be so badass and cool. Please let it be a tech rider.
I really like the design of the first picture. It's like a cross between Kamen Rider Ichigo and Kamen Rider Kuuga, and I love Kuuga.
The one problem I have with both names is that, to me at least, these don't sound like main Rider names. They sound like secondary Rider names. Hopefully these are working titles.
PLEASE just let it be something I'd want to SEE!
Kamen Rider Break looks like Iron Man is because he is going be a policeman motif
It's not that he uses five fingers -_- Its that the belt has five fingers on it. He also uses five elements fire water land air and whatevever you want to call infinity light, magic, ect. Regardless of if you think it works or not, there is no doubt that the creators intended to follow the number motif.
"Looks at picture" :Quickman X Kamen Rider.
To Anon 6:15pm,
You're an idiot. With that logic, Wizard must be an apology for W too since he wields 2 rings when fighting. Hell, Wizard has 11 forms in total right now and since W is the 11th Heisei rider... TOEI MUST BE APOLOGIZING FOR that ABOMINATION TO THE WORLD!
Right, enough goofing, so now I ask.. What does TOEI have to apologize for? For being too kiddy? Fourze was suppose to be lighter after the 2011 earthquake. Also, looking at the projected earnings and the last rating reports on Rising Sun Tokusatsu, Wizard is expected to be the lowest earning for Kamen Rider and is barely doing better than Fourze in TV ratings(Despite having a boost in the beginning, it's currently the 2nd lowest Rider series). So I don't see any reason for TOEI to apologize for making a children's show a little more light-hearted after a national tragedy that still made money.
Anon6:15, Just because you had a problem with fourze, doesn't mean Toei does. They have nothing to apologize for.
Back to the topic of this article, since there's pretty much a pattern to the neo-heisei era, the next one has to more science/tech based. I like the idea of a plant-based tech rider, sounds very unique and has lots of potential to be interesting.

Yeah it is a stretch, but there does seem to be a little 5 theme going on for Wizard:
Yes all Riders use their hands to transform but Wizard actually focuses on the hand, specifically the fact he has to wear a ring on the finger to do so.
He would later get the Drago Timer "gauntlet" where you have to press the thumb to get it to work, again focusing on the hand's digits.
There are 5 Styles: Flame, Water, Hurricane, Land and Infinity.
You can also say that there are 5 Dragon forms if you include the All Dragon form.
In my opinion
Number 5 in wizard represented by 5 fingers on his belt. If they did create wizard with 5 item to insert to its belt to transform, i wouldn't watch it anymore :). He'll die before he had time to transform.

I'd love to see more kamen rider like faiz too
If the next rider based on seed type power. Then my theory was true
That heisei riders still based on showa rider
First o's was multi-form rider who looks like multi rider same with RX
Second fourze used predator costume same with kamen rider shin (head only)
Third wizard name came from wizard of oz which oz was backward from kamen rider zo
And now Jack and the ......you now what i mean
But if they still respect with ishinomori job the face of the costume will be blank like fourze or wizard ( no mouth ) shin, zo and j have similar face and zo and j was respective from first and second rider in their era so that mean.........!?
I'd also like to believe he'll also have an inhuman partner, much like Philip (a dead guy who now exist as just a "human" made of data), Ankh (a Greeed), Kengo (a "human" made of Cosmic Energy), and Koyomi (a corpse that can detect Phantoms and needs mana to live). Maybe it may not be revealed until the later part of the series (as in the case of Kengo), but I'd bet that'll happen.
I really want both of these to happen. Can there be 2 riders this year?
The plantroid be a robot with a flower face? I dunno
