A new opponent has appeared for Kamen Rider Zero-One to challenge the heroes in their final act!

The newly-awakened Ark has acquired a human form and a transformation device- the Ark Driver Zero to begin the goal of wiping out humanity. But the vessels’ true power is awakened when it undergoes a singularity in combat with the other Riders.

As a result, a new and more powerful form is created: Kamen Rider Ark-One!

Feel free to join in our Ongoing Kamen Rider Zero-One discussion thread to share your thoughts and fears about this shocking new villain!

“There’s only one thing that can stop you, and that’s me!”

In a world where the life of the average human has been made easier by robotic helpers called Humagears, Hiden Intelligence is at the forefront of technological advancement. But with the passing of their founder, Korenosuke Hiden, the duties & responsibilities of president have passed on to his grandson, Aruto. Authorized to use the Progrise Keys & Zero-One Driver, this young man will fight to build a world where Humans & Humagers can coexist and smile together, as Kamen Rider Zero-One!

The Reiwa Era has begun with the first fantastic release from Kamen Rider Zero-One! I must say that Rising Hopper is an excellent design that’s translated to figure form rather perfectly. Exuding personality and functionality, Zero-One really has knocked it out of the park with it’s first release. While this figure isn’t armed with much aside from additional hands (his weapons comes with Vulcan) it’s undeniable how stylish and realistic this figure looks in person. And of course there’s that added bonus of black light reactive parts to drool over!

We’ve assembled 60+ images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero-One Rising Hopper for your viewing pleasure. You can view the entire gallery and read through our full review by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we have the formula for another great gallery with Build Tank Tank Form!

TV-Asahi has at last announced a return date for the SuperHeroTime programming block, consisting of Mashin Sentai Kiramager and Kamen Rider Zero-One!

Production on both series was suspended last month due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and a state of emergency declaration in Japan. However, new regulations have been put in place to ensure safe distancing between actors and crew to halt potential spread of the disease. As a result, filming on both series has resumed!

New episodes of Super Sentai and Kamen Rider will begin airing June 21 2020! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details on each exciting series.

While Kamen Rider remains on hiatus for the time being, production details for the current series Kamen Rider Zero-One continue as normal.

Because of this, we now have some new images of the newest configuration for Zero-One: Kamen Rider Zero-Two!

This new form is created by combining the Hiden 01 Driver with a new device called the 02 Driver Unit. A new Progrise Key called the 02 Progrise Key will unlock Kamen Rider Zero-Two when used with the new Driver configuration.

“Forcerise!”

In a world ruled by Humagears, Aruto Hiden has no allies. Or at least, not many. With the Zero-One Driver taken, and his options limited, a mysterious stranger gifts him the trump card he needs. A forceriser! Thus a new and powerful form is born, Kamen Rider Zero Zero-One!

Just revealed by Tamashii Nations Kamen Rider Zero Zero-One (001) is about to join the S.H. Figuarts line up of Hiden, AIMS, and ZAIA Kamen Riders. Set for release in October 2020 Zero Zero-One will retail for 6600 yen. The figure will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive as well. Check back with us to see further updates on this release in the coming months!

“I am Zero-One. The first in my generation, The First Rider!”

Site contributor My Shiny Toy Robots returns with another tokusatsu review, this time looking a new generation of crossover film – Kamen Rider: Reiwa the First Generation! Awakening in an alternate future where Humagears rule and humanity is pushed to the brink of extinction, Kamen Rider Zero-One teams up with Kamen Rider Zi-O to travel back to 2007 and the events of the catastrophic Daybreak Town Incident. Aruto’s resolve is pushed to its limits when he not only finds a mysterious Kamen Rider at its epicentre, but also his Humagear father.

Please check out the review and let us know what you thought of the movie in the discussion thread linked!

TV-Asahi has announced a hiatus of sorts for the Super Hero Time programming block- which currently consists of Mashin Sentai Kiramager and Kamen Rider Zero-One.

This hiatus is due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and the extended state of emergency in Japan.

For the next three weeks, alternative episodes will air in place of the usual Super Hero Time lineup-

*Kamen Rider Zero-One will release a two-part Presidents Special recapping the events of the series from Kamen Rider Zero-Ones’ perspective, followed by a Shooting Special shot from Kamen Rider Vulcan’s point of view.

*Mashin Sentai Kiramager will air the Episode ZERO special originally released in theaters, followed by Directors’ Cut revamps of the series’ first two episodes.

An exact return date for Super Sentai & Kamen Rider has not been confirmed at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details on this unique situation!
