Kamen Rider #1 is a movie and a tokusatsu. The plot in this movie is "Kamen Rider #1 is a 2016 film that celebrates the 45th anniversary of the Kamen Rider Series. Details for the new film are currently scarce, although the key visual above depicts an updated version of the original Takeshi Hongo / Kamen Rider 1 character design. Kamen Rider #1 is part of Toei's "Superhero Year" plans, which also includes a project celebrating the 40th entry in the Super Sentai series with Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger." This was a really good movie of the Kamen Rider Ghost series. Get to see the first Kamen Rider with an upgraded version of himself. The story line was good with unexpected moments. It was a really good movie and would recommend watching it.

Kamen Rider Faiz

Kamen Rider Faiz has 50 episodes. It is a tokusatsu. The plot in this series is "The Smart Brain corporation, the world's most powerful corporation, is trying to take over the world using Orphnoch, the next stage in humanity's evolution, to covertly kill off the human population. In pursuit of this, they develop three suits of power armor, called Rider Gear (Delta, Faiz, and Kaixa), to find and protect the Orphnoch King, who can fix a defect within Orphnoch DNA which causes their genetic structure to break down, leading to death..." This was a really unexpected series of the Kamen Rider franchise. What's surprising is that when a person died they come back becoming an Orphnoch. Also if an Orphnoch attacks a human being, that being becomes an Orphnoch. Has the sad, twisted, and unforgiving moments. There was even some funny moments in it though. Still this is a really good series. Would recommend watching it.

With Dragredder as his Contract Monster, he becomes Kamen Rider Ryuki.
