KR Gaim: Kamen Rider Griton's Pinecone, Durian Arms Teased
Apart from a higher resolution of the announcement poster for the 15th Heisei Kamen Rider series, KAMEN RIDER GAIM, a new toy catalog scan show the upcoming forms/arms for the show's 5th rider: Griton.
Kamen Rider Griton's default form uses the the Acorn Lock Seed and utilizes the Acorn Arms. As seen in the image at the right, Griton have additional Lock Seeds in his arsenal, the Pinecone and Durian. Each form's silhouette can also be seen.
Earlier toy catalogs reveal the Kamen Rider Gaim uses Orange Arms as his default form, and can also use the Strawberry, Pineapple and Watermelon Arms. Riders Baron have Banana, Ryugen uses Grapes and Zangetsu uses Melon. There's also Kiwi and Manga Arms but the user/s is yet to be revealed.
To premiere on October 6th, Kamen Rider Gaim will be directed by Ryuta Tasaki (Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger) and Takayuki Shibasaki, with scripts from Gen Urobuchi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet). The show was produced by Motoi Sasaki (TV Asahi) and Naomi Takebe (Toei).
durian arms wowww king of fruit only in asia...
ReplyDeleteFinally, a durian rider...
ReplyDeleteWTF?
Durian?! It was ok as a joke, but they're really using it?! Oh man what were they thinking... But as the saying goes, don't judge a rider by his lock seed. Not really sure if I'm going to take this seriously, though. I hope gaim is one of those funny rider types (den-o) and I really hope he's funnier...
ReplyDeletedurian?
ReplyDeletenow we're talking business...
Well it looks like Durian isn't Gaim's final form. I still say Gaim's final is fruit basket or garden.
ReplyDeletetheres been a few complainers complaining about the series.bt i think the poster looks pretty cool i cant wait to see the series this fall.
ReplyDeletemanga or mango LOL
ReplyDeleteGriton is looking to be my favorite rider so far. Although, I thought he was a coconut, not an acorn. Either way it works, he is the best designed rider in my opinion. I can see him being the kind but strong character. I hope these arms are his. I want know about him even more.
ReplyDeleteDurians arm . .
ReplyDeleteIt really exist!!!!!
lol
So apparently the king of fruits durian is a joke but oranges, strawberries etc.. are not. You idiots. Well anyway I expected Gaim to have durian as his final form since it looks so cool and powerful. But no the other rider gets it. Which means most likely Gaim's final form will be a fruit salad!
ReplyDeleteWell, looks like a lot of people called it.
ReplyDeleteI go for Dragon Fruit as Gaim's Final Form.
ReplyDeleteIf they're plan to do a Dragon Fruit, they better do it right.
ReplyDelete@anon4 I don't think many people are complaining and are not excited... It's just that many think that the fruit concept is too-outlandish for the darker and grittier brother of super sentai, the kamen rider franchise. I, for one, also think that the costumes are awesome, though the concept is still funny...
ReplyDeleteSpike On~ Anyone else remembered it?
ReplyDeleteIt's like this Karmen Rider show just keeps jumping the shark. Every thing bad about it just keeps getting worse. Kamen Rider was great, but this Karmen Rider guy is a joke that should die like Disco. Saban Power Ranger Megaforce looking better then this fruit basket of a bad show.
ReplyDeleteThis kind of negativity should die instead. I know people are entitled to opinions about the show, but this amount of hate is just sad. It's like like judging people before they're even born.
DeleteDurian arms.. not surprised,I would have think the same if u want some rider that is actually look and sounds dangerous
ReplyDeleteDurian!! LoL
I guess Gaim's ultimate form will be Mixed Fruit Form. LOL
ReplyDeletefinally, durian has been acknowledge !!
ReplyDeleteAcorn? Pinecone? I guess we'll be seeing a plethora of peculiar plants.
ReplyDeleteI want Rambutan (hairy fruit) arm!
ReplyDeleteTomatoes and cucumbers aren't getting any love? They are technically fruits too...
ReplyDeletewish it has santol arm or atis arm... yum yum
ReplyDeleteDECADE = 1
ReplyDeleteW / DOUBLE = 2
OOO = 3
FOURZE = 4
WIZARD = 5
GAIM = 6
I CANT BELIEVE THEY PULLED OFF THE NUMBER SCHEME.
People's the number scheme ended with fourze, stop trying to find hints that it's actually still going on.
DeleteLooooooooL! OMG this is crazy!
ReplyDeletelol, super form = fruit salad, ultimate form = nature's bounty
ReplyDeletelooks pretty darn cool to me!

ReplyDeleteThe lock is 6, when the lock is open. It is actually pretty cool.
I know a lot of people like it but I'm not feeling this show yet, I'm not pumped in the slightest. I thought wizard looked cool from the get go but the suits for this show just seems like stuff thrown on more stuff and mashed together with really weird flowless color pallets. The colors and armor for most riders I've seen just isn't very flattering or interesting to me. Ill see it in action and make up my mind but the break dancing thing and fruit stuff just so far isn't for me. If people like it that's cool and who knows might be good but I just dont feel it yet.
