Plot
During World War II, Adolf Hitler forms an alliance with an evil demon to invent special nanobots that can allow human subjects to have superhuman fighting abilities by being infused with animal DNA and robotic cybernetics, thus making them into part-monster and part-robot mutants. That is how Shocker is born. In present day, the still-global organization Shocker has kidnapped college prodigy Hongo Takeshi, who used the same engineering to modify him into the organization's strongest soldier. But luckily, he escapes without being brainwashed, and starts experimenting on his given cybernetics to become Kamen Rider and battle Shocker's minions. However, to avoid disaster and harm to those close to him, Hono tries to keep his cyborg life from his friends as a secret.

Cast
Fumiya Takahashi as Kamen Rider/Hongo Takeshi - a gifted college student who, after being cybernetically enhanced by Shocker, becomes a cyborg with superpowers and tries to bring down the evil organization from world domination and replacing humans with androids.
