This article is about a transformation device in Kamen Rider Ryuki and Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight. |
The Transformation Belt V Buckle (変身ベルト Vバックル, Henshin Beruto V Bakuru) are the transformation belt of Kamen Riders appeared in Kamen Rider Ryuki.
Functionality[]
When the Card Decks is put up against a reflective surface, the belt appears. After the Rider shouts "Henshin!", the user slides the deck into the belt, starting the transformation. After inserting the deck, the armor materializes as two transparent copies on both sides of the holder then come together on them, completing the transformation.
There is a variation of the V Buckle - designed by Hideyuki Kagawa - used by the Alternatives, based on what he understood from the first few pages of Shiro Kanzaki's notes on Mirror World. This belt was used as the Advent Master's Advent Belt in Kamen Rider Dragon Knight.
A gold-colored variant of the V Buckle is owned by Kamen Rider Odin.
User Restriction[]
The V Buckle can be used by anyone who wields an Advent Deck. However, without a contract monster, the V Buckle cannot be manifested unless the user is dragged by a Mirror Monster to the Mirror World.

Notes[]
- The V Buckle was also donned by the former member Yurika Hirokawa of Kamen Rider Girls, who represented Ryuki in the group.
- Ryuga's V Buckle makes a deeper sound when he draws an Advent Card from his deck, but in Rider Time: Kamen Rider Ryuki, it makes the standard noise used by the other Riders.
- In returning appearances beginning from Kamen Rider Geats × Revice: Movie Battle Royale, usage of the V Buckle and a Card Deck would generate a holographic projection of a mirror in the absence of a physical one during the transformation.
