START YOUR ENGINE!
The rain stops, there's a break in the clouds
The blue sky's calling out to you
Alright, it's almost time to head out
I don't need anyone else's advice
I've gotta trust my own instincts
It's high time I found my own way
Fire Up, Ignition
The heavy pressure's on
Slam the accelerator and power through
Surprise, the whole world's got drive! (It's faster than ever)
Feeling high like you're finally awake (Show me your Drivin')
Once you're on the road to destiny (Keep chasin' forever)
There's no way to go in reverse...
All we need is Drive!
Following someone...
...officers?
I guess you noticed.
This man is Amagi Shu.
Entrepreneur Amagi Shu
Special Crimes suspects he's a Roidmude, so we're keeping an eye on him.
We've been tailing him with Gen and Detective Misaki from the 2nd Division these last few days, but...
Metro Police Second Division Detective Misaki Junko
Must be a rough job.
Well, if you'll excuse me.
It's the perfect crime!
A large scale fraud operation?
In the last month, 8 women have been targeted.
They've had their bank accounts drained, and loans taken out in their names.
But one thing sets it apart from typical fraud cases.
All of the victims are left in a nearly vegetative state.
But all of a sudden, they just get up and try to leave.
There's no doubt in my mind...
A Roastporko is behind this!
It's Roidmude... Are you doing it on purpose now?
There's one common thread between all of the victims... This man, Amagi Shu.
He's the entrepreneur behind a popular matchmaking service.
The Amagi Lovers' Castle!
An oasis for lovebirds!
Lovers...
All of the victims had signed the guest book.
This creep is manipulating desperate women looking to get married!
He's a blatantly suspicious character, from what Gen and I have seen.
The only problem is the total lack of any Density Shift particles...
Episode 16 What has Sawagami Rinna so anxious?
Huh? Rinna, are you listening?
Y-Yeah, sure...
Yup, totes listening!
Listening...
Is it me, or has Rinna been acting strange lately?
She hasn't been coming by the Pit much, either.
Wait... the Captain isn't here either!
He's on vacation with his family.
Oh, trying to get back on his daughter's good side?
Daughter
Wife
Vacation
Looks like team Special Crimes is a step behind me, as usual.
Gou!
There's no challenge to this game right now, so let me give you a hint.
There's a secret event being held at the Lovers' Castle for members only.
Incidentally, the last time they held one was last month.
And that is a picture of Amagi setting up for the next event, which is tomorrow.
Would you look at that...
So, you want to participate in the secret event?
That's right.
I'm impressed that you found out about it.
I think I saw a cop drama like this, once...
The out of touch detective persistently dogging a celebrity suspect...
Yeah, I loved that show.
If I'm not mistaken...
In the end...
the detective always wins, right?
Very well.
I'll make preparations for two more guests.
That way... you can ascertain my innocence for yourselves.
Alright, he took the bait.
The incidents have all been within the last month.
If he made a move on the victims, he would have had to do it at last month's event.
Gou's nose is sharp as ever.
But if he invited us, then he must be confident that we won't find anything, right?
How did he con those women...?
Come out, Kamen Rider.
I will destroy you!
Chase!
Shinnosuke!
I don't have a choice...
I'll go along for the ride.
I understand... Start your engine!
Transform!
DRIVE: TYPE SPEED!
BRAKE UP!
GUN!
Let's go, Vegas!
TIRE CHANGE!
DREAM VEGAS!
You were once Proto-Drive!
You were Kiriko's knight in shining armor!
Snap out of it!
Spare me your prattle!
You're so naive, Big Bro.
TUNE!
CHASER COBRA!
EXECUTION!
FULL BRAKE! COBRA!
I'll deal with this pile of scrap!
I do not appreciate your choice of words.
No longer are we simply machines...
We're a new species.
You and Medic turned Proto Zero back into a twisted fighting machine!
That manner of thinking is pure human arrogance...
Krim Steinbelt.
Heart freed me from being used as a tool for the humans.
I will defend Roidmudes.
Don't make me laugh.
You're the boss here, right? Why don't you take me on?
Haven't your friends warned you about me, white Kamen Rider?
If you push me to my limits, you will be in serious danger.
Oh, no... Come on, Traveler!
TUNE! DECO TRAVELER!
This isn't funny!
It's a peaceful solution.
Let's move, Gou!
Come now, running away?!
Dang, he didn't waste a beat...
Damn him...!
He never ceases to amuse.
Please be cautious around the police, the Special Crimes Unit in particular.
They seem to have strong ties with Kamen Rider.
He may even be one of them...
This is ridiculous.
I have no interest in exposing his identity, or defeating him before he transforms.
Kamen Rider defends the humans...
Defeating him in his human state would hold no meaning to me.
You're very smart, Brain...
But you're quite petty.
What is the meaning of this tone?! They're ganging up on me...
Don't worry about it.
Thanks to Medic, I've completely recovered.
The after effects of the Dead Zone should be more tolerable now.
Awesome...
Special ammunition developed by Rinna to pierce the Roidmudes' protective coating.
Ahh~
One more present for you, Kiriko!
Hey!
What?
Those shoes...?
Try them on!
They may seem like ordinary shoes, but they contain high power density projectors!
Rider...
Kick!
START YOUR ENGINE!
Hey now, wait up... you're not even a Kamen Rider.
Yeah, that was just a "Kiriko Kick."
So what?! It's the thought that counts...
Well, the rest is all up to you!
Wait, Rinna! Have you finished adjustments on the new Shift Car that Professor Harley sent?
Look, I've got a lot of stuff going on right now!
Just give me a minute, okay?!
Yes, okay...
That was rather abrasive...
I was honestly hoping Dead Heat would be ready before Kiriko's new equipment...
Dead Heat?
Yes?
On Vacation!! Honganji
Officer Tomari! You will be investigating Lovers' Castle, correct?
Well forget it. That's an order from the 2nd Division!
But... This is under the Special Crimes Unit's jurisdiction—
Stop arguing and comply!
Ow! No! Nooo—!
I won't let you! I'm going to protect him!
What's going on, Misaki?!
That's it...! Shinnosuke!
Now that I think about it, the victims...
They all react violently to the sound of metal clattering!
Momoko! Momoko!
I've got it.
Right, copy that.
Please, enjoy.
So that I may share my dream with you...
Sorry about that, there was a lot of traffic...
You drove here?
Yeah, I'm actually a bit of a driving aficionado.
Ah, a drive...
Wait, Drive...?
Wait a sec, come on Rinna!
There was nothing suspicious in the room...
Come to me...
Please, hurry...
Gotcha.
Fine, whatever!
Is it so wrong to be in a rush to get married?!
Not really, but this event was clearly suspicious!
Weren't you listening?
It's just...
I was embarrassed to bring it up, okay?!
You can't get over your past if you don't meet someone new...
Keep following my voice...
I'm so glad you came!
Chase... What are you doing here?!
W-What?! Why would you see the Reaper...?!
Kiriko?
Aw, dang it...!
I don't have a Shift Car!
See? The out of touch detective wins in the end...
Roidmude.
H-How is that woman not under my control?!
Tomari warned me to be careful with auditory cues.
Copy that.
I made a point to wear my ear plugs from the shooting range.
They made your voice less effective.
I see, so his voice gives him the power to control women.
Right, he must have used it on Detective Misaki during the interrogation.
So that I may share my dream with you...
All of the victims showed extreme sensitivity to sound.
That's why the sound of metal drove them crazy.
Once you've heard his voice, he can even appear to be someone else.
He probably used that power to look like his victim's ideal man.
I'm not sure how true that is...
It's almost a perfect crime!
The participants were tricked into meeting their date, went home happy,
and then handed over all of their money!
That's why there was no trace of Density Shift.
I was hoping to make that woman one of my slaves...
She'd never fall for anyone that easily.
She's a Kamen Rider's sister, after all.
What?!
SIGNAL BIKE! RIDER!
Let's... transform!
MACH!
Searching, destroying, both done at mach speed!
Kamen Rider... Mach!
Jeez, he sings a harsh tune...
SIGNAL BIKE!
SIGNAL CHANGE! DANGER!
THE FINISHER!
FULL THROTTLE!
EXTREME DANGER!
Wow, I won't even get a chance to step in if Mach keeps this up.
Me and my big mouth...
Mr. Belt!
Is it finally our turn?
Transform!
DRIVE: TYPE SPEED!
Thank you, Big Bro!
Yikes... But now it's time for me to really start the show.
Get ready!
THE FINISHER!
FULL THROTTLE!
DANGER!
What?!
Gou!
Heart, you came to save me!
This is Heart's evolved form?!
No, it's that power again!
FRONT WHEEL!
Just what I expected from the latest model. I didn't think you'd put up such a fight!
Oh crap, I'm almost out of time!
Gou!
That's it... Come on, Dead Heat!
Wait, Shinnosuke!
Mr. Belt, I'm guessing from this Shift Car's name that it was made to counter Heart, right?
Correct, it is your most powerful weapon at the moment.
But it hasn't been finished yet!
Remember what happened last time! You're going to end up just like Heart!
I figured as much, but I'm done thinking about it!
I'll think of a way to stop once I need to!
We're out of options... Gou is doomed if we do nothing!
Let's go!
DRIVE: TYPE DEAD HEAT!
Awesome...
Look at me! I look kinda like Mach...
Indeed. Shift Dead Heat can be shared between you and Mach.
What is that form?!
DEAD HEAT!
You can use the Dead Zone, too?!
Heart! You bastard...!
DEAD HEAT!
Oh, man! So that's Dead Heat?
Nice one, Big Bro!
Uh, Big Bro...?
Gou... this Shift Car lets you enter the Dead Zone.
Do you know what that means?
W-Wait— Hey!
I can't control it!
You have to stop me! I'm counting on you!
It's over! I can move!
I'm not through...
They haven't beaten me yet!
That voice...
Kamen Rider Drive!
This isn't my fault!
Mach Enters the Dead Zone?!
Hey, Mister Shinnosuke and Gou!
That voice... really?!
The doc's under the monster's control too!
The shocking secret—
Hidden in Rinna's past is revealed!
I finally understand what's at the root of this case.
Episode 17 Who controls Dead Heat?
