His transformation device is based off a F1 steering wheel which resembles a gaming controller. He is heavily influenced by F1 racer uniforms with the logos all over the suit
 
A ton of information just poured out officially by news outlets before the new month rolls in

First off. Officially revealed. BoonViolet

BoonViolet/Homura Sakito will be played by Miyazawa Yu, while Byun Diesel (nickname Byundy) will be voiced by popular voice actor Hanae Natsuki.


Hanae Natsuki once voiced Tai in "Digimon Tri" so we literally have Ash and Tai talking to each other soon

His partner- Byun Diesel. The name is meant to pay homage to Vin Diesel

Translated


Sakito/Violet is an earthling but has been off-world for 10 years, and his occupation is a "thrifter." Using the BoonBoom Controller he transforms into BunViolet. He and his partner Byun Diesel (Byundy for short) have passed through many battlegrounds in space. --

--and they enjoy the ensuing "Chaos" that beckons them in these places. Byundy is the same race as BunBun and also a racer in the BBG; he met Sakito after retiring from racing. He has a circular way of talking and if he feels intense emotion will remark with "Byun!"

Why do this thrifter and his partner bear the name "BoonBoomGer", and are they Taiya and co's friend or enemy? For now, their goal remains a mystery.

Cashing in on the fad of making new side scrolling games from childhood IP's comes a new MMPR game

I don't think its fair to call it a fad. A lot of the recent retro brawlers have been excellent by all accounts, including the recent TMNT one. This Power Rangers game looks really fun, I'll definitely give it a try.
 
Oh yay, another game where my hands will end up hurting after playing a while, reminding me of the fact that the game only REMINDS me of the days when I was young and so were my hands :lol:

That being said, I'm definitely here for it. I like the TMNT retro games too. It's just a neat little nostalgia thing for me.

The summer movie villain is loaded with homage/puns

New movie general is Damon Thunder (named for the film Days of Thunder) who is the “Supplement Commander” of the Hashiriyan. He is after Nicola Keydoor (Nicole Kidman), Princess of Planet Torikuru. The movie features a racetrack (circuit) turning into a Kurumajuu.
 
Hmm, I just learned something about myself. I can read upside-down text almost as easily as right-side-up text, but apparently I have a considerably harder time recognizing or interpreting upside-down images of elaborate monster costumes.

First official look at Kamen Rider Gavv

Fuuto PI movie: I'm really disappointed that it's just an anime adaptation of Begins Night, an event already depicted in live action, instead of a continuation of the unfinished storyline of the anime. After the way every season of Kamen Rider tells a complete narrative with an ending, it was startling to me when the anime just abruptly cut off mid-story, with no word on when or whether it will continue.

Gavv first look: The helmet suggests a fox to me, which is weird, since we just had a fox-themed Rider in Geats. The driver looks like it's based on Maya hieroglyphs or something.
 
As rumored Gavv is based on sweets / food. His design resembles that of Gummi Bears.

The belt eats the gummy bear. The first Gummy is called Poppin' Gummy, the first of the Gochizous. The belt mimics a chewing/CHOMP motion.

Oh, good grief. Well... sometimes Riders have silly motifs paired with smart, compelling stories, like Gaim with its fruit-themed samurai armor or Ex-Aid with its video game characters. So I'll reserve judgment.
 
The production team for Gavv goes like this

-The action director for Geats

-The head director for Zero-One

-The head music director for Ghost and Zero-One

-The chief producer for OOO, Go-Busters, and Geats

First look at the belt toy. Interestingly, it isn't called a driver, just "Henshin (Transformation) Belt Gavv", which would imply that the belt itself is named Gavv

Iirc, the belt is a living being, so I'm thinking that whoever uses it is called Gavv by default
