Kamen Rider Zi-O aired in Japan from 2018 to 2019 as the final series of the Heisei era, following Sougo Tokiwa, a young man destined to become a time-travelling Rider king. Clocks, watches and time itself run through the show, with Ridewatches used to transform and summon the powers of earlier Riders. That clock imagery made its ticking sounds instantly recognisable to tokusatsu fans, and clips like this one spread through fan edits, tribute videos and meme compilations, where the ticking now works as shorthand for time travel, destiny and a turning point.
