Kamen Rider Saber January Scans Released Online

Posted on December 23, 2020 at 1:02 pm by Kiryu under Kamen Rider

A new challenger has appeared in the world of Kamen Rider Saber and our latest round of Magazine scans showcases a brand new Rider that will be entering the fray: say hello to Saikou, the Swordsman of Light!

The main gimmick with Kamen Rider Saikou is that the sword itself is sentient. The suit is just a shadow, conjured up for the purposes of wielding the sword itself while in battle but can be wielded by other Riders as demonstrated by Saber in the magazine scans. Further details pending, but we’ll be sure to notify you once any more updates become available.

    This suit appears shockingly understated? Like not even just among the Saber riders, but it looks like something that's waiting for something else to pop on top, like Plat Form or Transient. I have to assume there's a gimmick to this new guy that's yet to be seen.

    The gimmick is that Yuri becomes the Saikou sword. The suit is called the Saikou Shadow which he conjures to wield the Saikou sword, but as the scans shows, others can wield the sword such as Saber

    yeah looks like KR Saikou is the sword itself and the wielder is a clone using it.

    after Zero-one with its "Belt is actually the gimmick" joke, we're reaching "the rider is actually the toy itself" point.

    Huh! That's a really fun idea, and pleasnatly surprising to me since it all-together gives this impression that the next month isn't just going to be the new guy showing off how cool he is, which has been the hard tradition for so long.

    I wasn't expecting Saikou to be black!

    Okay that didn't come out right but seriously, I was expecting him to be like Hyper Muteki level sparkly.

    Interestingly, he has a hinge across his chest and shoulders Future gimmick?

    With how Saber has handling the motifs in their suits so far, it would have been too easy and almost generic to make a Kamen Rider whose element is light. Where there's light, there's always shadow. That's the idea they're going for and I love it. The RKF is going to look great, too.
    Since Saikou is a quarter 2 Kamen Rider, he should have something to make him really unique from the huge cast that we already have, and they definitely nailed that. Saikou is probably the most blatant way that this franchise has ever advertised a toy(it literally has its own shadows to swing it around and show off lol), but I think it really works here.

    The Ride Book has the same hinge at the same location. His upgrade is slated to arrive in April, so it's definitely related to that.

    Hazard build. Make sense, but some feels like there's a light form later on. Or the dude end up being a sword for majority of the series for saber, but occasionally pops up in dream sequence for advice like musashi from ghost.

    Before sentient sword like Saikou, we have Banno Driver and Ark Driver

    Felt like there should be a part 2 since this barely cover the entire January.
