2012/2013 Kamen Rider - Kamen Rider Wizard... CONFIRMED.

[The Analyzer]

So it's most definitely, unequivocally confirmed the next entry is Kamen Rider Wizard?

Edit: And may the Kamen Rider/Harry Potter fanart commence! Has this every happened with Magiranger?

The IPDL's have always looked like this

Maybe it'll be written as Kamen Rider VVizard, still retaining the V for 5 if they keep the increase of mix&match components by 1.

Kinda like how they did it with X where his name represented him being the 5th Rider, but he had two V's to avoid confusion with V3. That's what I read, don't know if that's true.

I'm surprised Toei did not incorporate 41 and 14 in the name, making a pun of the 41st anniversary of Kamen Rider and being the 14th Heisei era Rider show.

I thought X was for the number 4.
I mean, even though the other Riders said they considered him a Rider, I think Riderman was a sidekick until much later, no?

What I read is that Riderman is officially the 4th Kamen Rider and X is the 5th.

Not really. During X itself we got the "5 Riders vs King Dark" movie. Riderman was considered undoubtedly an official Rider by then.

Oh, okay, I wouldn't know. Haven't watched Showa besides a little of Black and RX

 

[HenshinSlayer]

I was hoping for some Dr. Strange in it.

Maybe it's pronounced funny? Come on where is the pun?!

If I remember correctly, in Germany, sometimes you pronounce he letter 'W' with the letter 'V', so "Wizard" could be pronounced as "Vizard", just like how "Volkswagen" to us is "Folksvagen" to them. Probably just to put in the letter 'V' for 5 there, not totally sure.
