The Shocking Truth Revealed in Episode 1 of Kamen Rider Meis: The Identity of Kamen Rider Lido

The much-talked-about new series "Kamen Rider Meis" has finally begun broadcasting, sparking immense excitement on social media right from the start. Particular attention has been drawn to the identity of "Kamen Rider Lido," which had been shrouded in mystery since the release of the key visual.

Before the broadcast, various predictions and theories flew around, such as "Who is the person transforming?" and "When will it be revealed?" Surprisingly, within the first episode and through official announcements, it was easily revealed that the character is the private tutor, Tatsuomi Asao. Furthermore, it was simultaneously disclosed that he is a member of the "Zodiac Alliance," and viewers have been voicing their surprise and praise at the rapid pace of the plot.

Social media has been flooded with comments such as, "It's amazing how everything was revealed in the first episode," "I'm surprised they didn't drag out his identity at all," and "It's great to see him attack with a cold ruthlessness he never showed during his tutoring days." In addition, new theories and discussions regarding future story developments and foreshadowing are heating up, with comments like, "Wait, cats aren't part of the Chinese zodiac, are they...?" and "How will this eventually connect to Kamen Rider Lido?"

The context

"Kamen Rider" is a long-running, immensely popular Japanese tokusatsu (special effects) superhero franchise created by Shotaro Ishinomori, which has been entertaining audiences for decades with new yearly installments. Traditionally, the identity of mysterious rival riders or masked characters is kept secret for many episodes to build suspense. However, "Kamen Rider Meis" subverted expectations by revealing the identity of Kamen Rider Lido in the very first episode, creating a fresh wave of unpredictable drama involving future relationships, betrayals, and the bonds between the characters.
