Vistamp/rider themes

[rubius]

ok, after seeing 2/3 episodes and a preview i'm pretty sure the vistamps are going to honor past riders i mean it's pretty obvious...

Eagle: Double/W
Mammoth: Den-O
Megalodon: Decade

i mean come on in the opening in the lab there are ichigo, V3, and Kuuga in the tanks

makes me wonder which rider will be used for the rest? like...

Hopper: OOO

What do you people think?

I'm honestly not seeing how the animal themes connect with the past Riders. Seems kind of random

They haven't used a tiger or lion yet, so maybe that for OOO? Maybe some kind of bird for Fourze?

I don't think all of the animals are supposed to line up 1 to 1 with the past riders.

we might get some obvious ones, like if they use Showa riders, too, there's almost zero chance Ichigo's themed form isn't grasshopper, but some of the forms, like mammoth for Den-O are probably just gonna be "we want to make a form based on this animal, now what Riders don't have an associated form yet, and how can we make the design look like them without taking away from the animal?" like how Den-O's sword form's whole "peach face for Momotaros" thing was done with mammoth by making the tusks on the face line up with the leaves on the bottom of the peach.

I feel like we probably need to go into it with the mindset of "oh, cool, they made this form like a bit like [insert rider here]" and then just ignore the connection beyond that, unless it becomes plot relevant later.
