"Seiken Swordriver!"
―Activation announcement[src]

The Transformation Belt Seiken Swordriver (変身ベルト聖剣ソードライバー, Henshin Beruto Seiken Sōdoraibā, lit. "Transformation Belt Holy Sword Swordriver"), or simply the Swordriver, is the transformation device used by Kamen Rider Saber, Kamen Rider Blades, Kamen Rider Espada, Kamen Rider Desast.

Design[]

The Seiken Swordriver is composed of the following parts:

  • Right Shelf (ライトシェルフ, Raito Sherufu) - The right-hand slot to store the Wonder Ride Book on the Seiken Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Wonder Ride Book, which has a good compatibility with the God Beasts, and transmitting it to the Seiken, it brings various abilities to the right half or "Ride Right" of the body that strongly influences the sword technique of the swordsman's "Sword Robe" armor.
  • Mid Shelf (ミッドシェルフ, Middo Sherufu) - The middle slot to store the Wonder Ride Book on the Seiken Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Wonder Ride Book, which has a good compatibility with the Animals, and transmitting it to the Seiken, it brings various abilities to the central "Ride Mid" of the body, which enhances the physical ability of the swordsman's "Sword Robe" armor.
  • Left Shelf (レフトシェルフ, Refuto Sherufu) - The left-hand slot to store Wonder Ride Book on the Seiken Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Wonder Ride Book, which has a good affinity with the Stories, and transmitting it to the Seiken, it brings various abilities to the left side or "Ride Left" of the body that strongly affects the activation of the special ability of the swordsman's "Sword Robe" armor.
  • Wonder Generator (ワンダージェネレーター, Wandā Jenerētā) - The Seiken Swordriver's energy generator. It has the role of extracting the energy of all things in the universe that included in the Wonder Ride Book and generating "Wonderful Energy".
  • Ride Spell Line (ライドスペルライン, Raido Superu Rain) - the circuit-like pathways to the slots that hold Wonder Ride Books. Tells the Seiken the abilities of the Wonder Ride Book read by the Seiken Swordriver.
  • Swordriver Belt (ソードライバーベルト, Sōdoraibā Beruto) - Seiken Swordriver's sword belt. It is usually stored in the main body, but when transformed, it is automatically deployed and fixed to the waist of the user. After that, in response to the awakening of the Seiken, it plays the role of deploying the "Sword Robe", the armor of the swordsman.

Transformation[]

To transform, the user inserts one to three Wonder Ride Books into the corresponding slots on the belt and pulls out the sword, initiating the transformation. Though not required, each Rider has their own post-initiation pose:

  • Kamen Rider Saber: Saber appears in a library surrounded by flames. He performs an "X" slash before a dragon released from the Wonder Ride Book circles him and forms armor, with the slashes forming the visor, completing the transformation. For Dragon Alangina, Saber performs his own "X" slash first before performing Espada's vertical uppercut slash.
  • Kamen Rider Blades: Blades appears in a library surrounded by surging water. He performs a single horizontal slash before a lion released from the Wonder Ride Book circles him and forms armor, with the slash forming the visor, completing the transformation.
  • Kamen Rider Espada: Espada appears in a library surrounded by lightning. He performs a single vertical uppercut slash before a genie released from the Wonder Ride Book circles him and forms armor, with the slash forming the visor, completing the transformation.
  • Kamen Rider Desast: Desast appears in a library surrounded by fog and purple fire. He performs a single vertical uppercut slash before a skull released from the Wonder Ride Book incorporates him and forms armor, with the slashs forming the visor, completing the transformation.
  • Transforming with more than one Wonder Ride Book results in other constructs being released from the additional books and forming special armor around the corresponding section of the body.
