Kamen Rider Gaimu is a Fruit Rider?!


Herotaku reports that TOEI already gave initial confirmed information on Japanese toy stores regarding the 15th Heisei Kamen Rider series Kamen Rider Gaimu. Reports states that Gaimu is indeed a fruit-themed Kamen Rider, as rumored.

Additionally, Kamen Rider Gaimu is said to have multiple forms and/or other Kamen Riders making an appearance within the show itself. Gaimu's belt will be called the Sengoku Driver, and with the use of the Lock Seed and Knife Cut, he transforms to the new hero.

Kamen Rider Gaimu premieres this October.

  5. The name of the belt make me feel the Edo period. By the way, Kikaider The Novel has been released! http://www.vohchannel.com/2013/07/chinh-thuc-phat-hanh-android-kikaider.html

  6. What PART of this guy looks like a fruit?!

  7. NO!!! NO!! NO!!! Fruits?!?!? wtf. So the collectable gimmick for this rider is going to be toy fruits... Real nice. Well that's going to save tons of money for rider collectors. Who would want that??

    Also it seems that anniversary series is going to have legend riders appearing on the show. So could this show do what fans expected Decade too do??? I hope so. But I'm already going to say this.. Kamen Rider Decade is way cooler and more badass then Gaimu. Fruits... please

  9. I read about a motif of fruit in the earlier rumors of the show and you know what there was one fan who i mentioned in a forum which is tokusatsu related thinks that element of the armor that the rider wears is orange (the fruit type) and you know what he may be right that element of this kamen riders transformation are fruits but it isnt so bad i mean the manga/anime One piece use the fruit thing and its called a devil fruit which gave most of the characters powers from it ,At least they didnt put something silly in it because when it says "lock seed" it feels serious (i think)

  10. So... Fruit Samurai?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Isn't this the same one that was proved false before?

    ReplyDelete
  12. I don't know if I'm disappointed, excited, or if this is just a joke TOEI is making

  13. Seriously?A Sengoku-era Samurai Kamen Rider with fruit-themed powers?

    Wtf Japan?

    ReplyDelete
  14. Toei has the chance to give the world a literal fruit ninja if they give him a stealth form.

    They must not let us down.

  15. Fruit ninja has a kamen rider series now.....i quit.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I bet he's going to deliver a real tasty fruit punch!

    ReplyDelete
  17. this is the point where i simply say: %#@*.

    ReplyDelete
  18. If this is true, then I seriously doubt that Kamen Rider Gaimu will be a dark series.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Fruit Ninja! The story line better have a mind blowing plot like agito, funny moments like Den-O, life or death situations like Ryuki, a cool character like kuuga, with a atmosphere like Double, and a d*ckish antagonist like in Shin, and the feels of Ichigo.

    THEN I'll give it a Segata Sanshiro Stye nod of approval.

  20. Great, the show hasn't even started and he's already being called a queer.

    ReplyDelete
  21. LOL Tutti Frutti Rider

    ReplyDelete
  22. Fruit rider?! Are you kidding me. That sound like an insult!!

    ReplyDelete
  23. hmmm, looks like the guys at back at Toei played too much fruit ninja.

    ReplyDelete
  24. You guys do know that technically Den-O had a peach motif with Momotaros and the peach shaped eyes on his helmet right?

    ReplyDelete
  25. haters gonna hate..everytime before a new rider series start there will be a bunch of haters will criticize example decade's pink colour
    double's weird design, ooo's traffic light design, fourze rocket head...and the haters will end up loving the series at the end..so its a trend..no worries just enjoy the show

    ReplyDelete
  26. Let's see, the main character's catchphrase would be " Eat fruits to get VITAMINS !!! " or something like that ?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Henshin!

    TANGERINE! TOMATO! BANANA!

    TATOBA TATOBA!

    ReplyDelete
  28. HAHAHAHAHA. Fruit Rider? What is he gonna do, force his enemies to eat their vitamins and minerals everyday? Is our secondary rider based on Vegetables? Heck, why not have all the Riders in show be based on the food pyramid? One for Meat, Dairy, Fruits, Vegetables, and Grains.

    Toei is running out of ideas and I can understand that but they should have been more creative. I know Super Sentai has been doing Dinosaurs, but I want to see Kamen Rider do their take on the motif. Probably a bad idea, but it's better than nothing, but we could have a crossover one day where one Dinosaur Sentai Team fights against a Kamen Rider consisting of the powers of all five dinosaurs each member is designated as, with the 6th ranger's dinosaur as that Rider's final form, hahaha.

    In any case, this season could be pure comedy rather than drama. He looks more like a Samurai than a Ninja though.

  29. It doesn't bug me that it's a fruit themed rider, rather i'm more curious how they incorporate it into the rider and the story

    ReplyDelete
  30. i thought the fruit rumor was just a hoax, well, hope it's only for the accesory, just like foodroid or candroid, maybe now is foodroid.
    i hope the kamen rider himself is not a fruit themed. it will be silly to see kamen rider with fruit face

    ReplyDelete
  31. Ashamed for the guys that never see fruit cutting stunts being performed in real life... I am disappoint in all of you!!!

    (Coincidentally, I just got a captcha that had "trolinn" in it)

    ReplyDelete
  32. i can picture it to be a comedy/funny rider, bout time we had a den-o replacement

    ReplyDelete
  33. The one and only Carmen Rider.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Gaimu is supposed to be a martial arts themed rider. Look him up on the rider wiki.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Ok, it's final form should be king of fruits "Durian" and looks of spikes on its armour...

    ReplyDelete
  36. TORIKO!!!! LEG KNIFE,FLYING FORK!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  37. some people complain no matter what.maybe the fruit thing has something to do with just gadgets smiliar to how fourze used fast food items for his.people havent even seen the show yet are already complaining about it.

    ReplyDelete
  38. When I read the title I heard: ring ring ring ring ring ring ring Banana Form XD

    ReplyDelete
  39. maybe TOEI concepted the gaimu with fruits.. The purpose is to learn kids eat much fruit?

    ReplyDelete
  40. Wow, a lot of people here need to learn to speak some English. Oh and btw, it should be "Reports state that Gaimu is indeed a fruit-themed Kamen Rider, as rumored." You're getting better GekiDan, just keep at it.

    And as for all the whiners.... I'm not too pumped about this either, but at least it's something DIFFERENT. TOEI had the balls to slap a fruit-theme onto a Kamen Rider series. I give em props. Let's see how this turns out.

  41. kamen rider popeye!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yeah, fruit, that's ridiculous... what next?! USB sticks or motorbike parts?!

    Whether the rumour is true or not I'll give the show a chance. People claiming Gaimu will be terrible without seeing a second of footage need to remember this happens with every rider.

    As for the guy who said TOEI are running out of ideas, they should use dinosaurs... really?

    ReplyDelete
  43. @Danté Solablood

    what next?! USB sticks or motorbike parts?!

    Kamen Rider W already did USB sticks for motorcycle parts who knows?

    As for my take on this series... WTF! A Fruit themed Kamen Rider come on Toei. I expected better from you

    ReplyDelete
  44. The first that cross my mind is Toriko.. I think this theme will suit perfectly for viewer with age ranging 5-12

    ReplyDelete
  45. fruit eh? whats next? vegetables?

    ReplyDelete
  46. mayby the secondary will have vegetables or some other type of food
