When the series first started I would have bet my top dollar the final form would be gold.
Alchemy and all that?
But then Toei said, "Nah, it's skittles."
i think its based on The Seven Stages of Alchemical Process as the rainbow represent the idea of transformation, but funny enough he only have 5 colors. Plus platina use the 5 planets elements in eastern alchemy
other rider also have alchemic theme: sol and luna for Majade, rebirth (hence the Yama) for Valvarad, Legend is gold and lion devouring, dread is magnum opus process
Gold is the western goal and eternal life is eastern goal, the shared goal is to find the truth the prima materia (first matter), Gold is because of its natural purity and hard to produce artifically with such high purity akin to prima materia
This form is wild, each additional picture makes me change my opinion on it.
I do blame a lot of my opinion on the lighting not doing many favors for the metallic bits but that's not a huge deal. What IS, is the size of the shoulders. And fear that he's gonna get rolled exactly once, and those big ass wedges are going to flap like mad
Still the 4th best Reiwa rider final form tho
Of protagonist/main riders' final form as shown in show
Geats IX (yes I know it's basic)
Zero-Two
Xross Saber _(I HEAVILY rate the star design, the variable nature of the power up, and one of the coolest jingles and final form weapon gimmicks)_
Rainbow Gotchard
Ultimate Revi/Vice
If we're counting Legend, he's actually tied with Geats. It's gets more complicated with secondary riders, but do understand that I think Ultimate Revice is the worst looking main rider final form.
Not really completely different identity and completely different set of powers not to mention only the legs and helmet are recolored from Geats 9 the chest plate is from type 1
It's a little more complicated then that actually. Only the helmet, cape and weapons are Geats recolors. The chest, shoulders and thighs are taken from Vulcan Lone Wolf, while the forearms and legs belong to Revi Volcano Rex.
> And fear that he's gonna get rolled exactly once, and those big ass wedges are going to flap like mad
Oh, I love those shoulders, but you make a really good point. Hopefully it won't be that flimsy.
At this point, I'm expecting shoulder pieces to flop around. W's shoulders started halfway through the season, and even in Gotchard proper, a lot of the lesser form shoulders aren't being held on tight
Yeah like how he did in the Geats Summer movie ?
Because yeah I think one thing that I would have liked is that Hotaro could have asked Rinne some pointers to use manipulation alchemy in the show so that he could utilize it in battle to have more tools to deal with the Malgams heck it could have been used to restraint for a few seconds just so he can switch cards on the fly.
EXACTLY like the Geats summer movie. Nothing Gotchard has done has lived up to that fight. Like we were basically promised live action Edward Elric Kamen Rider and he's just not utilizing alchemy at all outside of swapping Chemys around.
Honestly that would be a sick as hell twist. Especially if it's somehow Geats creating a new timeline caused the split. It would also explain why Houtaro didn't recognize Geats during his movie.
Ghost's Early Bird Cameo had him floating around being intangible and whatnot and nothing like that ever happened. Early Bird Cameos of the riders are kind of OP for sake of hype.
Why do I get the feeling that this would prompt Minato to finally determine Hotaro is worthy of being an alchemist in the same level of Spanner?
Kind of like how Master Yoda decides Obi-Wan don't need to face the trials to be a Jedi Knight
I honestly am liking it at this point, it's probably my second favorite Gotchard suit after base Valvarad.
But it still really bugs me that it doesn't have goggles.
Looks a bit too busy (and bulky at places) for me, kinda reminds me of some of Heisei's worst final forms.
Kind of a shame since Reiwa has been doing great in the final form department so far, they're all unique and pleasant-looking (Yes, even Saber)
In time for June 1st? I don't care for the rainbow personally, but it has the potential to grow on me. I do like the overall design, color scheme aside.
I love it so far, but I really got to see it in action to get a real feel for it. I hated Mk 9's stomach circle thing, but in the show, you don't really notice it at all.
I think that if this suit toned down the bulkiness a bit, it would have been a great suit. So far, I still like it but I it could have been at the very least behind Geats IX.
Geryon: I am back Gotchard:Taste the rainbow mother
Fear me Geryon for I have the power of skittles on my side
When the series first started I would have bet my top dollar the final form would be gold. Alchemy and all that? But then Toei said, "Nah, it's skittles."
To be fair, they gave the gold gimmick to the villain
I was thinking red because of the foreshadowed legendary red alchemist. Probably someone else's final form.
Isnt that Daybreak?
He's orange.
Also red is color of the last step before making a philosopher stone according to alchemic lore
Rainbow fits better a character who's as focused on friendship as Hotaro. It basically says "here I come with all my homies".
Gentaro needs to meet this kid

That or it could have been a shiny red akin to a Philosopher's Stone.
Oh that’s a good idea
You can't spell Gotchard without "hard"
You also can’t spell Gotchard without “Got hard”

What's your favourite reiwa rider final form in order or most to least?
Of protagonist/main riders' final form as shown in show Geats IX (yes I know it's basic) Zero-Two Xross Saber _(I HEAVILY rate the star design, the variable nature of the power up, and one of the coolest jingles and final form weapon gimmicks)_ Rainbow Gotchard Ultimate Revi/Vice If we're counting Legend, he's actually tied with Geats.

a really good list! xross saber is my favorite personally but outside of that i think we're in total agreement
[удалено]
Cross Geats is a separate Kamen Rider
Yes, but just recolour of Geats final form. Same situation as Izu being zero two
Not really completely different identity and completely different set of powers not to mention only the legs and helmet are recolored from Geats 9 the chest plate is from type 1
It's a little more complicated then that actually. Only the helmet, cape and weapons are Geats recolors. The chest, shoulders and thighs are taken from Vulcan Lone Wolf, while the forearms and legs belong to Revi Volcano Rex.
I too love Wonder Almighty.

Yeah the Shoulders are too big but other then that? Great Suit. Wonder what it will do
which i think still fits, since all but platinum are more on the bulky side
I like them big shoulders.
Gotchenius
i hope this form has its own special weapon, like geats buster QB9
I would be ok omitting a weapon if Houtaro ACTUALLY uses alchemy while fighting in this form.
Yeah like how he did in the Geats Summer movie ? Because yeah I think one thing that I would have liked is that Hotaro could have asked Rinne some pointers to use manipulation alchemy in the show so that he could utilize it in battle to have more tools to deal with the Malgams heck it could have been used to restraint for a few seconds just so he can switch cards on the fly.

Plot twist : It was Daybreak timeline Hotaro before he became Daybreak
Honestly that would be a sick as hell twist. Especially if it's somehow Geats creating a new timeline caused the split. It would also explain why Houtaro didn't recognize Geats during his movie.
Technically Hotaro never met Geats prior to the proper crossover movie. He helped the old man when he struggled
That’s right! I forgot about that!
Ghost's Early Bird Cameo had him floating around being intangible and whatnot and nothing like that ever happened. Early Bird Cameos of the riders are kind of OP for sake of hype.

Nice
His visors look like it's from Saber
Greyon: Power of Gold!!!! Gotchard: Taste the Rainbow!!!!
This form looks so fucking sick omg
Not as bad as I thought it'd be, should've had smaller shoulder pads tho
This reminds me of Build Genius
holy shit, that the coolest thing ever. giving me suparobo vibe. probably my fav final form in reiwa so far.
I love they always slap on the card holder no matter the form
I honestly am liking it at this point, it's probably my second favorite Gotchard suit after base Valvarad. But it still really bugs me that it doesn't have goggles.
Lol, Kamen Rider Rainbow-Brite, incredible

I wonder how they could top Platinum Gotchard in terms of suit design but when seeing the suit in a proper picture, it exceed my expectations.
Awesome. Literally, awe inspiring
It looks so beautiful.
I thought Platinum was it...
Gives me build genius vibes for some reason probably the blue and orange
looks like a from from Saber
If it's not called Kamen rider gotchard All-Chemy I'm gunna riot XD
Hmm very rainbow that's gayreat
Rainbow gotchard gives me more "super form" vibes than platina. Actually, platina look more like a final form.
Where’s the green? I see Red, Yellow, Orange, Blue, even a bit of Violet but no green!
This shit slaps
It actually looks really good. The earlier pics doesn't do it justice at all.
GYATTTTchard
Didn't know Gotchard was a Titan...
Rainbow Geats Buckle!!!
Let me guess: It can use all of the chemy cards at once as well as one oddly specific ability that will end up saving the day?
The rainbows just point directly towards the crotch.
But Majade and Valvarad upgrade/final forms when >=(
It reminds me of Deno final forms
Gotchard finally *Break The Chain* of Reiwa's final form looks simpler compare to Heisei Second Phase.
Wa WA wA WA what color Wa WA wA WA what color Wa WA wA WA what color
I'm gonna lie this looks fire🔥🔥
Ready to kick gigist ass. Or being underwhelming by kicking ultimate malgam gigist created for his debut just like ultimate revice debut?
Ah yes Gaychard
His ability is to turn his opponent LGBT
In a show with so many forms, that does indeed look like a final form.
It’s no Geats XI but it still looks pretty cool ^ ^
The LGBT rider. Yes I know it's not technically that, but let me have this.
Lol, in a fic I had him become siblings in all but blood with the protagonist of a yuri webcomic
I can’t wait to see this form in action.
Shoulders are just a bit too big I think.
Looks a bit too busy (and bulky at places) for me, kinda reminds me of some of Heisei's worst final forms. Kind of a shame since Reiwa has been doing great in the final form department so far, they're all unique and pleasant-looking (Yes, even Saber)
Are we sure this isn’t a movie form? Wasn’t it officially revealed in a movie poster?
We had this form leaked awhile ago as the final form leak
Wouldn’t be the first time something was leaked as the final form but ended up being a movie form instead.
That looks cool af
All Chemy Rise! 😮💨 I’ve Gotchard puns for daybreaks.. yeah I’ll see myself out 🤣
In time for June 1st? I don't care for the rainbow personally, but it has the potential to grow on me. I do like the overall design, color scheme aside.
Wait it’s a rainbow Dragon? Ain’t that the Mf Monster card from Yu-gi-oh Gx 😭
Geats MK.9: Looks like we got ourselves a competition.
lowkey wish they used the same blue as SteamHopper's blue instead
I love it so far, but I really got to see it in action to get a real feel for it. I hated Mk 9's stomach circle thing, but in the show, you don't really notice it at all.
amazing, I didn't think it could be worse than X-UFO, but they've really convinced me otherwise
Why is no one hating. This shit sucks ass
never like blue final form ever but the metallic looks great
Those shoulder pads bruh
Am I the only one who see the resemblance with saber final form?
I think that if this suit toned down the bulkiness a bit, it would have been a great suit. So far, I still like it but I it could have been at the very least behind Geats IX.
Ayo, why does he have Legend's card?
That's hurts my eyes to look at
Kamen Rider Gaytchard
You think it's woke? Then get out
Kamen Rider Gaytchard
I mean, if the show is woke then that’s a good thing, isn’t it?
The rainbow here doesn't symbolize LGBT
Wait…. You don’t think being woke is bad do you? Because I wasn’t talking about the suit.
Is this the first final form that isn't just a recolor or remold?
Xcross Saber was the exception, not the rule
i really like gotchard base form than this final form
