Banjo Ryuga, also known as Kamen Rider Cross-Z, is a secondary rider appearing in the stoey of Kamen Rider Build. After becoming a test subject, his Hazard powers rapidly increased, allowing him to transform into Cross-Z.
While Cross-Z doesn't possess as many forms as Build, it does possess several interesting forms that are just as powerful. For more details, let's review them below!
1. Cross-Z
This form is the primary form of Kamen Rider Cross-Z. To transform into this form, Ryuga must use a Dragon Fullbottle and a special device called the Cross-Z Dragon, adapted from the Build Driver. The difference is that Cross-Z only has one slot for one Fullbottle.
Cross-Z's power is quite terrifying, as it can surpass Build, Night Rogue, and Blood Stalk in combat. In addition to relying on punches and kicks, Cross-Z is also equipped with a personal weapon, the Beat Closer sword. Furthermore, Cross-Z possesses several powerful finishers, particularly the Dragonic Finish technique.
2. Cross-Z Magma
Cross-Z Magma is the final form of Kamen Rider Cross-Z, accessed by Ryuga using the Cross-Z Magma Kunuckle and the Dragon Magma Fullbottle. Besides its incredibly badass design, this form is also superior to its previous forms.
Not only that, the power of Cross-Z Magma surpasses that of Kamen Rider Build's RabbitRabbit and TankTank forms. In this form, Cross-Z is capable of unleashing devastating attacks coated with magma, making its destructive power even more deadly. One of this form's strongest finishing techniques is the Volcanic Attack.
3. Great Cross-Z
Besides evolving into Cross-Z Magma, Kamen Rider Cross-Z has another transformation variation, the Great Cross-Z. This form is accessed by Ryuga using the Great Cross-Z Dragon along with the Great Dragon Evolbottle.
Ryuga first acquired this form after regaining his Cross-Z powers, which were previously lost due to Evolto's actions. In this form, Cross-Z is capable of unleashing more powerful fire attacks and a finishing technique called the Great Dragonic Finish.
4. Cross-ZEvol
Cross-ZEvol is Ryuga's transformation accessed by using the Muscle Galaxy Fullbottle. This form is the second final form of Kamen Rider Cross-Z, appearing exclusively in the Build NEW WORLD: Kamen Rider Cross-Z storyline.
Besides its impressive design, Cross-ZEvol is also incredibly powerful. This form possesses three powerful and terrifying finishing techniques, including the Muscle Finish and the Galaxy Finish, a terrifying energy attack.
5. Cross-Z Charge
While the previous form used the Build Driver for Henshin, Cross-Z Charge is a form Ryuga accesses by using the Sclash Driver in conjunction with the Dragon Sclash Jelly. In this form, Cross-Z's power is perfectly balanced.
Cross-Z Charge is equipped with a special weapon called the Twin Breaker, which can be used to attack enemies or perform finishing techniques. Additionally, Cross-Z Charge can still use the Beat Closer sword if needed.
