Detailed Pics of the Energy Riders & Upcoming Gaim Spoilers Under the Cut!

Kaito & Kouta are joining forces to fight Bravo, both using Baron’s Lock Seeds to transform. Baron lends Gaim the Banana Lock Seed while he uses Mango, and together they perform Gaim Banana Arms & Baron Mango Arms Double Kick! Gaim even gets to wield Baron’s Banaspear. Will we soon see other riders lending their fruits to each other?

Following up on the recent reveal, new scans have appeared to provide a more detailed look at the new Energy Lock Seed Riders! The new reinforcement belt, the Genesis Driver, was created by Yggdrasil Corporation’s research division scientist, Sengoku Ryoma, who uses Energy Lock Seed Lemon to become Armored Rider Duke! He’s using everyone’s belts for experimental research, but what is his real objective?

By grabbing the energy bar after inserting the Lock Seed into the new Genesis driver, the fruit is split open with the juice color appearing below and a new, stronger generation of Rider is created! Kureshima Takatora has become Armored Rider Zangetsu Shin.

The new super-powered weapon, the Sonic Arrow, can be used as either a bow & arrow or as a slashing sword-type weapon. Energy Lock Seed Cherry, Armored Rider Sigurd, continues to remain a mystery…

Armored Rider Marika, a girl by the name of Minato Youko, has been working under Sengoku Ryouma to guard the outskirts of town. Using the Peach Energy Lock Seed to transform, she relies on speed and acrobatics to cause trouble for Gridon. She’s so fast the eye can’t see her and uses the Sonic Arrow to slash at him. Duke’s arrows of light will pierce even the hardest armor and it looks like Ryuugen is also in trouble!

In addition to the Genesis driver, Yggdrasil is manufacturing an army of Kurokage Troopers to act as a group and overwhelm other riders. Baron transforms in an attempt to fight them, but there are simply too many for him to defeat. Kaito & Kouta are both caught by the enemy troopers! Kouta hints that Gaim’s new power-up will be revealed soon…

What fruits do you want to see join forces? What is Ryouma really after? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
