As it is written in this book, average high schooler Tokiwa Sougo
embarks on a path which leads him to become the overlord of time, Oma Zi-O.
As we speak, he has obtained a new power, that of Kamen Rider Gaim.
And with it, he has nearly bested Another Gaim.
ARMOR TIME!
What the heck?!
What is this?!
Rejoice!
He is heir to the power of all Riders.
Woz, help me!
There we go...
The ruler of time—
It's opening!
Traveling beyond time and space to reign over past and future...
His name is Kamen Rider Zi-O: Gaim Armor!
HURRAH! GAIM!
And in this moment, he once again receives the power of another Rider!
On parade, through the flowered path!
I'll get you out of there, Geiz!
FINISH TIME! GAIM!
Damn you!
SQUASH TIME BREAK!
What the heck?!
While it is true that defeating your opponent will save your ally...
Is that really for the best?
What do you mean?
You want to become a king.
Is solving everything by oneself...
...your idea of what a king does?
I mean...
In that case...
There's no point in anyone standing by your side.
Is the man you're trying to save really that weak?
Have faith. In him, and his own strength!
Before I realized...
I was back where I left off.
That guy looked a lot like the one who gave me the Ride Watch.
But he was different...
That much was clear to me.
Which is why...
The legacy of the Heisei Kamen Riders has carried on throughout the era.
And now they pass their power on to the next generation!
Rejoice, for the birth of a new king!
Gonna grab it in a second, so are you ready?
It's a brand new history, can you feel it feel it?
Making our bonds the guiding light
Now it's time to shout it out, shout it out!
And move forward through the present
No matter how often you feel lost
Make sure you knock on future's door
Once you've got your sights on what's beyond
Just jump in and believe in yourself!
Now Over Quartzer!
We'll slip through the raindrops of time, together
You Over Quartzer!
Go beyond the future!
The lessons of the past can't be clouded by lies
Now feel the Nexus future
Now Over Quartzer!
A brighter world is coming
Take me there!
Running away from Zi-O, are we?
I guess you're just going to let the rise of Oma Zi-O happen.
I'll stop him. I already made up my mind.
Well then...
We share a similar goal.
I'm trying to undo a nightmare of a future!
I'm not like you Time Jackers, who just want to reshape it as you see fit!
You're the same.
You're committing the same crime of changing history as we are.
That's not...
Every day, Zi-O grows more powerful.
You have already been defeated by him.
We should cooperate in order to achieve our goals.
Doesn't that sound like a delightful arrangement?
Your silence speaks volumes.
Zi-O On Parade
Oh, heading out?
Yeah...
I'm gonna try to bring Geiz back.
Oh, so he took off because you guys had a fight, huh?
Leave him be.
Woz...
Another friend of yours?
Sure, something like that...
May I ask you to repair this for me?
I'm so sorry, we're actually a clock shop.
I only repair timekeeping pieces, like this one...
Wait, a clock?!
That is a clock!
I sure as heck can fix that!
Um, I'll do it...
Please, just let me!
It's been so long...
I'll get you a drink, make yourself at home!
A real customer!
My overlord...
What do you hope to gain by bringing him back?
Well, I mean, he's my friend... Of course I want him to come back.
As it is written here...
Myoukouin Geiz contributed nothing to your conquest.
There is no harm in letting him go.
Even so, I need him...
To help me become a good overlord.
Broken necessities can be repaired to retain their usefulness.
But...
That which is not necessary must be discarded.
You don't have to discard anything!
I can take care of it!
Oh boy, I'm looking forward to this!
Tsukuyomi, the tea.
Huh?
What's the matter, did you forget something?
Uh...
Serial Disappearances Afoot! Popular Dance Troupe's Members Reported Missing
Dance troupe members keep disappearing!
Don't you think that sounds like the Time Jackers?
Time Jackers? Is that a new dance team?
Geiz was somewhere around these guys...
I'm sure of it.
Let's check it out!
Check what out...?
It's fine, my gut instinct is working today!
I'm sure of it!
Sorry, do you mind serving yourself?
Okay, streaming in 15, everyone get ready!
- Right. - Okay.
Couldn't this wait until after the show?
We're going on camera soon, I'd like to focus.
I...
I saw it...
I saw you...
...turn into a monster.
You saw me turn into a monster...?
What the hell are you talking about?
Are you...
...the reason they went missing—
And?
So what if I am?
GAIM!
He shows no hesitation in accomplishing his goal.
He will use the power of Kamen Rider Gaim, and in time, become king.
With him by your side, you can defeat Zi-O.
What are you doing?
Looks like we won't be getting along, after all.
He really is here...
Zi-O...
Geiz!
Myoukouin Geiz.
I thought he was made of sterner stuff...
What a shame.
We need to save Geiz.
Salutations!
Myoukouin Geiz, he who impedes your rise to overlord, has vanished.
Woz!
Right now, we have to focus on Another Gaim.
Sougo!
Wait a minute...
Another Gaim?
How did you know his name—
Uh, just a guess...
I know what year he came from, too.
And I've got the Ride Watch to beat him.
When in the...?
Come on, you congratulated me the other day!
Can you stand?
Head back to 9 To 5 without me!
I'll take this guy to the hospital.
Did I congratulate him...?
There is...
no record of this...
Where is this place?
ERROR
No signal...
What the hell is that?
GEIZ!
Transform!
RIDER TIME!
KAMEN RIDER GEIZ!
AXE!
Behind you.
BOW!
Who are you?
Kumon Kaito.
Sougo...
I really like that fellow that brought this in.
How do you know him?
Well, he's like...
He's someone who believes that I'll be a king someday.
Someone who's rooting for you and your dream.
He's a nice boy!
Welcome back.
I thought you went to the hospital.
No, but where have you been, Tsukuyomi?
Did you find Geiz?
Yeah, that figures...
I couldn't find him either.
Okay, I'll head out again!
W-Wait a second!
Be safe.
Welcome back.
Sorry for the wait.
Wait... but...
You just...
Huh, just what? What's wrong?
This isn't making any sense!
Is it okay if I pick up where I left off?
I'll tell you everything I know about Another Gaim.
Fine, fine. Let's hear it.
It all began five years ago, in 2013.
There was a guy who was kicked out of a breakout dance group, Team Baron...
His name was Asura, and it all started when the Time Jackers contacted him.
Screw you!
Would you like the power to eliminate anyone in your way?
I won't take no for an answer.
GAIM!
Ever since then, Asura sends people who get in his way to this place called Helheim...
And he became Team Baron's leader.
So how do you know all this?
Like you saw it first hand...
Well, uh, I did a lot of investigating!
This is really strange!
You're hiding something.
I-I better go pick up today's groceries!
I'm off!
Hey, hold it!
I guess looking randomly won't help.
Let's come up with a plan.
What the heck is going on?!
I knew where Geiz was?
And I fought Another Gaim?
You said you had the watch you needed to beat him, too.
But I don't...
And none of that happened.
But you just...
Maybe you were dreaming?
Wait, your shirt...
Could it be...?
What's wrong?
You!
I mean, it wasn't you, but... What are you doing?!
I didn't do anything...?
Whatever, we need to go!
Be safe.
Is there any way out of here?
None.
I've been searching for five years.
Any leads?
Why so desperate to get back?
There's something I need to do.
And that is?
It's Zi-O...
I have to put an end to the overlord.
Overlord?
What's so funny?
Am I imagining the hesitation I see in you?
My hesitation...?
I don't see the strength it takes to defy fate in you.
Fate!
Yes...
We may have been guided to this place, to this moment!
So that we could witness another one-of-a-kind sight!
Now, let us watch the ultimate in performance!
Here they come, Team Baron!
The one in the middle...
That's Another Gaim, you have to beat him!
But even if I beat him now, it won't make a difference!
Besides, I don't have the Ride Watch I need to beat him!
It's fine!
If there's a commotion, the other one will show up!
The other what?!
Just do it!
That's enough!
Hey, what the...
What's up?
Wow, deja vu...
What is this?
It's you again...
But we haven't met before...?
I'll still beat you, though!
SPACE-TIME DRIVER!
ZI-O!
I'll get rid of anyone who gets in my way!
Transform!
RIDER TIME!
KAMEN RIDER ZI-O!
Run for it!
Five years! I've been at the top for five years!
And I won't let anyone get in my way!
OOO!
ARMOR TIME!
HAWK! TIGER! GRASSHOPPER! OOO!
I sense something odd.
What could it be...?
Bastard, I'll send you to the other dimension too!
TIME CHARGE!
5...4...3...2...1...
ZERO TIME!
PA-ZING SHOOTING!
Who did that?!
A second Zi-O...?!
I knew he'd show himself.
My overlord...?!
Hey there!
Could it be...?
Oh, well!
Let's do this together!
SWORD!
Alright, let's wrap this up!
Not just yet.
He got away!
So who are you, then...?
Me?
I'm...
I'm just me.
I knew it!
This is remarkable...
Alright...
Next time, on Kamen Rider Zi-O...
There are two Sougos?!
This won't turn out how you want.
Not just yourself, you need to believe in your friends too!
Show me.
I'll stop him!
Time to slice and dice!
