The first Kamen Rider series in the Reiwa period and the thirtieth overall.
Being the first Kamen Rider of the Reiwa period, Zero-One's name and motif are in homage to Kamen Rider 1. He is the first lead Kamen Rider to have a grasshopper as his central signature design motif since Kamen Rider Black RX, and returning to the traditional insectoid eye design since Kamen Rider Fourze.
With "zero" in Japanese and "one" in Japanized-English, Zero-One can be read as Rei Wan in Japanese, referencing the fact that he is the Kamen Rider of the Reiwa era. The characters "zero" and "one" are known in tech, electronic and the mathematic world as Binary numbers, which is fitting for the series due to its theme of artificial intelligence.
Fumiya Takahashi's favorite Kamen Rider is Kamen Rider Decade.
This is the first series to have its standalone film to be released after the end of the series, as Kamen Rider Saber would be airing at that time. Originally, the film was planned for a summer release, having been double-billed with Kiramager's standalone movie. After a delay, both Zero-One and Saber's individual films had premiered that following December in lieu of a traditional Movie War between the two. Aruto would eventually meet Touma Kamiyama in Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki, while Izu would meet Reika Shindai in Kamen Rider Jeanne & Kamen Rider Aguilera with Girls Remix.
