- Zamonas' represents Kamen Rider Amazons, a net series reimagining Kamen Rider Amazon that was released during the Heisei Era but is not counted as a main installment.
- Zamonas' name is an anagram of "Amazons".
- The Amazon Alpha, Amazon Omega and Amazon Neo Ridewatches are inserted on his Ridewatch Holder.
- Zamonas' legs and the scale motif are based on Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha, his and helmet resemble Kamen Rider Amazon Omega, and the red-and-blue color scheme as well as the additional armor plating is based on Kamen Rider Amazon Neo.
- Just like the Amazons Riders, Jogen has no transformation pose and his transformation effect is a a burst of heat.
- Jogen's civilian attire is also loosely based on Jin Takayama's appearance from the first season of Amazons.
- Jogen is the only Quartzer Rider who has his own Time Mazine.
- Jogen's Time Mazine Model was used previously by Ora.
- Additionally, his Time Mazine has the same motif as Castle Doran.
- According to PLEX designer Takato Yamashita, the original Zamonas conception tended to represent both the Amazons Riders from Amazons and the Kamen Riders from Kamen Rider The First and The Next. However, this conception was fell through since Yamashita thought that it was "impossible."[4]
