This September, we will be introduced to Kamen Rider Gavv, a hero like no other, inspired by the sweet and squishy world of sweets!
A Historical First: The Sweetest Kamen Rider Yet
Since the beginning of the Reiwa era with Kamen Rider Zero-One, Kamen Rider has been evolving, with each series bringing fresh themes and innovative designs. Following the footsteps of Saber, Revice, Geats, and, the currently airing, Gotchard, Kamen Rider Gavv is set to take the stage in 2024. What makes Gavv unique is his unprecedented motif—sweets, a theme beloved by children and adults alike. This marks the first time in the franchise’s storied history that a Kamen Rider will harness the power of sweets to transform and fight evil.
A Teaser That Tantalises
The teaser visual for Kamen Rider Gavv has been released and it’s already creating waves. Gavv’s design is a striking departure from traditional Kamen Riders. His clear purple body, reminiscent of gummy candy, gives off a bouncy, squishy feel that is both eye catching and unique. The colourful armour covering his face, chest, arms and legs adds to his vibrant, playful appearance.
Gavv’s suit design and other information was in fact leaked a few weeks back via toy leakers and photos taken on set. These leaks heavily resemble the actual suit!
Transformation with a Twist
Kamen Rider Gavv’s main form is based on gummy candy but that’s not all! The series is set to feature various forms and other Riders inspired by popular snacks among children. Each form will showcase different abilities and powers, making Gavv a versatile and unpredictable hero. Fans are already speculating about the types of snacks that will inspire Gavv’s transformations and the powers they might bestow.
Some leaked snacks include crisps and a chocolate bar!
Sweets bring happiness and joy to people of all ages and Kamen Rider Gavv embodies this sentiment. His bright, pop inspired design and the whimsical theme of sweets are sure to captivate a wide audience. Whether you’re a child thrilled by the colourful packages or an adult with a sweet tooth, Gavv’s promises to deliver excitement and delight!
Eager fans won’t have to wait long to see Gavv in action as he is set to make his debut in the upcoming movie “Kamen Rider Gotchard: The Future Daybreak,” set to be released on July 26th. This early glimpse of Gavv on the big screen will undoubtedly heighten the anticipation for his series launch in September.
