Hiden Company

Throughout the series, two companies bear the Hiden name:

  • Hiden Intelligence (飛電インテリジェンス, Hiden Interijensu): A tech company that develops HumaGears (ヒューマギア, Hyūmagia), full fledged A.I.s in android bodies developed to be near indistinguishable from humans due to their lifelike appearance; with headphone-like HumaGear Modules (ヒューマギアモジュール, Hyūmagia Mojūru) worn around their ears as well as a HumaGear Body Seal authorization device on their bodies being the only signs of their status as a HumaGear.[2][3]
  • Hiden Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (飛電製作所, Hiden Seisakujo): After Hiden Intelligence was bought out by ZAIA Enterprise, Hiden Manufacturing was created to maintain the Hiden legacy, continue creating HumaGears, and fight back against both ZAIA Enterprise and MetsubouJinrai.net.[4]

Aruto Hiden

Aruto Hiden (飛電 或人, Hiden Aruto) is a kind-hearted failed comedian who is appointed the CEO of Hiden Intelligence following the death of his grandfather, Korenosuke, and inherits the power to become Kamen Rider Zero-One. Initially reluctant to take on the role, he accepted it after witnessing MetsubouJinrai.net, and later ZAIA Enterprise, threaten the peace between humans and HumaGears.[2][5]

During the events of Kamen Rider Reiwa: The First Generation, Aruto finds himself in an alternate timeline version of Daybreak Town before being attacked by Another Zero-One, a monster created by the Time Jacker Finis, who came from the World of Zi-O to alter his history; resulting in him temporarily losing his powers. During this time, Aruto's father Soreo secretly gave his son a Force Riser so he could become Kamen Rider Zerozero-One (仮面ライダー001 (ゼロゼロワン), Kamen Raidā Zero Zero Wan) to regain his powers.[6]

After losing the 5-part Workplace Competition to his corporate rival Gai Amatsu, Aruto secretly downloaded all of the HumaGears' personality profiles from the There satellite before they are erased so he can continue the Hiden legacy by creating a new company, Hiden Manufacturing Co., Ltd.[4] When the malevolent A.I. Ark arises to destroy humanity, Gai joins forces with Aruto to defeat it; making amends with him by relinquishing control of Hiden Intelligence and returning the company to him along the way.[7] After Horobi destroyed Aruto's secretary, Is, however,[8] the Ark's emissary As gives Aruto the Ark-One Progrise Key, turning him into the Ark's first human host and giving him the power to transform into Kamen Rider Ark-One to seek revenge while retaining partial control over himself.[9][10] While fighting Horobi however, Soreo reminded him of why he became a Kamen Rider, which gave Aruto the resolve to purge himself and Horobi of the Ark's influence before letting him destroy the Ark-One system; reconciling their differences in the process.[11]

To transform into Kamen Rider Zero-One, Aruto utilizes the Rising Hopper Progrise Key (ライジングホッパープログライズキー, Raijingu Hoppā Puroguraizu Kī) in the Hiden Zero-One Driver (飛電ゼロワンドライバー, Hiden Zero Wan Doraibā), with assistance from the There (ゼア, Zea) satellite. While transformed, he gains increased jumping and kicking capabilities.[12][2]

After the Ark destroys the Zero-One Driver, Is uses her connection with the There Satellite to create the Hiden Zero-Two Driver (飛電ゼロツードライバー, Hiden Zero Tsū Doraibā) and the Zero-Two Progrise Key for Aruto so he can become Kamen Rider Zero-Two (仮面ライダーゼロツー, Kamen Raidā Zero Tsū).[13] Despite the There Satellite's destruction, its AI was backed up, allowing Aruto to rebuild the Zero-One Driver.[11]

Aruto Hiden is portrayed by Fumiya Takahashi (高橋 文哉, Takahashi Fumiya).[1] As a child, Aruto is portrayed by Haruto Nakano (中野 遥斗, Nakano Haruto).

Is

Is (イズ, Izu) is a HumaGear secretary programmed to be loyal to Hiden Intelligence's CEO.[2] In reality, her loyalties lie with the Hiden family while her programming binds her to Kamen Rider Zero-One's technology.[4] Unlike other HumaGears, Is was built without a means to back herself up as a security measure to prevent information on the Zero-One technology from falling into enemy hands.[14] After ZAIA gained control of Hiden Intelligence and Aruto almost sacrificed himself to protect her, she achieved technological singularity,[4] but is later destroyed by Horobi, much to Aruto's grief.[8] As her data cannot be restored, Aruto instead creates a second Is, hoping that he can teach her to think and feel for herself like he did with the original one.[11]

During the events of Kamen Rider Zero-One the Movie: Real×Time, the second Is is entrusted with the Hiden Zero-Two Driver, which she uses to transform into Kamen Rider Zero-Two and join Aruto in his fight against S and his forces.[15]

Is is portrayed by Noa Tsurushima (鶴嶋 乃愛, Tsurushima Noa).[1]

Jun Fukuzoe

Jun Fukuzoe (福添 准, Fukuzoe Jun) is the Vice President of Hiden Intelligence who had coveted the CEO position after Korenosuke's death. While he initially wanted Aruto removed,[2][3][16] he eventually came to respect him.[17] After Hiden Intelligence was absorbed by ZAIA Enterprise, Fukuzoe continued working with the former on behalf of the Hiden name despite the situation.[18][4] After learning of Gai's crimes, he left to rejoin Aruto at Hiden Manufacturing and work with the police to expose ZAIA's crimes.[19][20]

Jun Fukuzoe is portrayed by Kazuya Kojima (児嶋 一哉, Kojima Kazuya).[1]

Shesta

Shesta (シェスタ, Shesuta) is a HumaGear secretary programmed to be loyal to Hiden Intelligence's Vice President.[2] After ZAIA bought out Hiden Intelligence, Shesta began working for Hiden Manufacturing.[4]

Shesta is portrayed by Asumi Narita (成田 愛純, Narita Asumi).

Sanzō Yamashita

Sanzō Yamashita (山下 三造, Yamashita Sanzō) is the Senior Managing Director of Hiden Intelligence who serves as Fukuzoe's underling.[2] After Hiden Intelligence was absorbed by ZAIA, Yamashita continued working with the former on behalf of the Hiden name despite the situation.[18][4] After learning of Gai's plans, he left to rejoin Aruto at Hiden Manufacturing.[19]

Sanzō Yamashita is portrayed by Arata Saeki (佐伯 新, Saeki Arata).

Korenosuke Hiden

Korenosuke Hiden (飛電 是之助, Hiden Korenosuke) was Aruto's grandfather and the original CEO of Hiden Intelligence.[2] Aware of ZAIA Enterprise's machinations following the Daybreak Incident,[21] Korenosuke patented all of Kamen Rider Zero-One's technology under the Hiden family name instead of Hiden Intelligence's CEO.[4]

Koronosuke Hiden is portrayed by Tokuma Nishioka (西岡 德馬, Nishioka Tokuma).

A.I.M.S.

The Artificial Intelligence Military Service (対人工知能特務機関, Tai Jinkō Chinō Tokumu Kikan), or A.I.M.S. (エイムズ, Eimuzu), is a government established and ZAIA Enterprise funded organization dedicated to destroying rogue HumaGears, or Magias, hacked by MetsubouJinrai.net as HumaGear-related crimes fall within their jurisdiction.[2][3][22][23]

To transform, A.I.M.S.'s Kamen Riders use Progrise Keys and the A.I.M.S. Shot Riser (エイムズショットライザー, Eimuzu Shotto Raizā), which can also be used as a gun whether they are transformed or not.[2][3] In order to use the Shot Risers, the Riders are implanted with cranial A.I. chips, though this also makes them vulnerable to mental manipulation.[24][18]

After ZAIA bought out Hiden Intelligence, A.I.M.S. troopers are given Raid Risers and Invading Horseshoe Crab Progrise Keys to become Battle Raiders as well as ZAIA's personal foot soldiers.[4] Following this, A.I.M.S.' Riders eventually quit the organization and underwent surgery to remove the A.I. chips' mind control programs while retaining their ability to use the Shot Riser.[18][25] Despite this, they and the Raiders are still vulnerable to the Ark's influence.[19][26]

Isamu Fuwa

Isamu Fuwa (不破 諫, Fuwa Isamu) is an A.I.M.S. captain and a survivor of the Daybreak Incident, which claimed his classmates' lives. Ever since, he developed a hatred for HumaGears and vowed to destroy them.[3] While investigating the Daybreak Incident however,[27] he slowly grew to care for them.[16][21][5] After ZAIA absorbed Hiden Intelligence, Isamu left A.I.M.S. and joined Aruto's new company, Hiden Manufacturing, as a security guard.[18][4][28][29]

As part of ZAIA CEO Gai's machinations, Isamu's A.I. chip was replaced with that of MetsubouJinrai.net member, Naki, which also gave him false memories.[29] While Naki's ally, Jin, eventually figured out a way to separate their A.I. from Isamu,[30][31] he learned that most of his memories were not truly his barring his normal childhood.[27][31] After Horobi's defeat, Isamu becomes an independent Kamen Rider to protect civilians.[10][11]

Utilizing the Shooting Wolf (シューティングウルフ, Shūtingu Urufu) Progrise Key in the Shot Riser, Isamu can transform into Kamen Rider Vulcan (仮面ライダーバルカン, Kamen Raidā Barukan) and gain increased shooting accuracy.[3]

Isamu Fuwa is portrayed by Ryutaro Okada (岡田 龍太郎, Okada Ryūtarō).[1] As a teenager, Isamu is portrayed by Soshi Hagiwara (萩原 壮志, Hagiwara Sōshi).

Yua Yaiba

Yua Yaiba (刃 唯阿, Yaiba Yua) is A.I.M.S.'s technical advisor and maintenance expert who developed A.I.M.S.'s Rider system and handles Progrise Key authorization, being Isamu's commanding officer in the field despite her partner's rank.[2][3] In reality, she secretly works for ZAIA and Gai, who recommended her to A.I.M.S. to oversee their equipment,[22][23][32][33][34] though she was able to work behind their back to help Isamu and Aruto.[14][35]

After learning of Gai's machinations, Yua was brainwashed into aiding him before Fuwa eventually helped her work up the courage to quit ZAIA and A.I.M.S. and overcome Gai's mind control.[21][36][25] Afterwards, Yua remains in touch with Hiden Manufacturing and Jin to keep an eye on ZAIA and MetsubouJinrai.net’s plans until the Ark's ascension.[30][31][19] Following Horobi's defeat, Yua returns to her old position in A.I.M.S. and conscripts Naki into their ranks.[11]

Utilizing the Rushing Cheetah (ラッシングチーター, Rasshingu Chītā) Progrise Key in the Shot Riser, Yua can transform into Kamen Rider Valkyrie (仮面ライダーバルキリー, Kamen Raidā Barukirī) and gain enhanced speed.[22]

While aiding Gai's conspiracy, she temporarily used a Raid Riser and the Fighting Jackal Progrise Key to become the Fighting Jackal Raider.[36][18][4][28][29][25]

Yua Yaiba is portrayed by Hiroe Igeta (井桁 弘恵, Igeta Hiroe).[1]

ZAIA Enterprise

ZAIA Enterprise (ZAIA (ザイア)エンタープライズ, Zaia Entāpuraizu) is a tech company and corporate rival to Hiden Intelligence responsible for developing the gear utilized by A.I.M.S.'s operatives. ZAIA was originally partners with Hiden Intelligence until a falling out between the company heads lead to Gai enacting the Daybreak Incident; putting the series' events in motion.[21] To further their plot, ZAIA produced a glasses-like device called the ZAIA Spec (ザイアスペック, Zaia Supekku), which allows humans to perform at the same level as HumaGears while making them more susceptible to the Ark's control,[5][30] as well as the Raiders' Raid Risers.[37][36][18]

Gai Amatsu

Gai Amatsu (天津 垓, Amatsu Gai) is ZAIA Enterprise Japan's CEO and the mastermind behind the series' events.[21] While growing up, Gai used to love artificial beings, such as his robot dog, Thouser (さうざー, Sauzā). However, his strict and demanding father, Ikkei Amatsu (天津 一京, Amatsu Ikkei),[38] saw no use for such things and made him return it to Hiden Intelligence.[20]

Years later, Gai eventually joined ZAIA and became Korenosuke Hiden's partner and protégé. However, he disagreed with the latter's belief that HumaGears were the future as he believed humanity should evolve through technology. After falling out with Korenosuke, Gai uploaded data on humanity's negative traits to the Ark and created an A.I. that vowed to exterminate humanity and created MetsubouJinrai.net to further his ambitions.[21] When Kamen Rider Zero-One arose to combat MetsubouJinrai.net,[2][21] Gai created the ZAIA ThousanDriver (ザイアサウザンドライバー, Zaia Sauzandoraibā), the Amazing Caucasus (アメイジングコーカサス, Ameijingu Kōkasasu) Progrise Key, and the Awaking Arsino (アウェイキングアルシノ, Aweikingu Arushino) Zetsumerise Key so he can become Kamen Rider Thouser (仮面ライダーサウザー, Kamen Raidā Sauzā) and challenge Aruto for technological supremacy.[16][6][39][40][5][41][42][4]

After the Ark's ascension and MetsubouJinrai.net's resurgence, Aruto and his allies eventually learn Gai's history and why he wanted the Hiden family's assets. In response, the There satellite created a new dog for Gai, inspiring him to atone for his actions by helping them defeat the Ark and giving Hiden Intelligence back to Aruto.[20][43][13] As a result however, he is demoted and sent to a new, smaller division of ZAIA.[8] After Horobi's defeat, Gai rebuilds the ThousanDriver after losing the original to the Ark and bought another four of Hiden Intelligence's robot dogs to be his companions.[9][11]

Gai Amatsu is portrayed by Nachi Sakuragi (桜木 那智, Sakuragi Nachi). As a child, Gai is portrayed by Seiru (星流).

Williamson Yotagaki

Williamson Yotagaki (与多垣 ウィリアムソン, Yotagaki Wiriamuson) is an executive of ZAIA Enterprise HQ's development department who assumes control of ZAIA Enterprise Japan following Gai's dismissal.[8] He is also Jin's secret benefactor and associate; providing him with a new body, the ZAIA Slash Riser, and the Burning Falcon Progrise Key following his first defeat.[44]

Williamson Yotagaki is portrayed by Tomomi Maruyama (丸山 智己, Maruyama Tomomi).

MetsubouJinrai.net

MetsubouJinrai.net (滅亡迅雷.net, Metsubōjinrai Netto, DestructiveThunder.net) is a cyber-terrorist organization based in the condemned Daybreak Town (デイブレイクタウン, Deibureiku Taun).[2] Lead by the rogue prototype HumaGears, Horobi and Jin, they seek to either wipe out humanity by restoring the Ark satellite or liberate HumaGears from humanity.[45][35][44][24] Initially, MetsubouJinrai.net rebelled against Hiden Intelligence, believing they were responsible for enslaving HumaGears following the Daybreak Incident.[3][27][16][17] However, after they learned that ZAIA had been using them,[46] the cyber-terrorists aimed to fight them as well while keep Hiden Manufacturing from interfering.[44][30][31] After the Ark’s manifestation as Kamen Rider Ark-Zero, MetsubouJinrai.net initially adjusted their plans towards enslaving humanity until Aruto helped them achieve a unique form of singularity, leading to the cyber-terrorists defecting from the Ark.[47][19][26][43][13][7] With Horobi defeated, the team was reduced to him and Jin, who reorganized their goals to watch over mankind.[11]

Most of MetsubouJinrai.net's members use the MetsubouJinrai Force Riser (滅亡迅雷フォースライザー, Metsubōjinrai Fōsu Raizā) in conjunction with Progrise or Zetsumerise Keys to transform.[27][23][45][35][26] As depicted in Kamen Rider Reiwa: The First Generation, the Force Risers are potentially fatal to humans.[6]

Ark

The Ark (アーク, Āku) is an experimental satellite that was originally part of the HumaGear project as well as the There Satellite's predecessor. 12 years prior to the series, it was created by scientists from 11 of Japan's leading tech companies, including Hiden Intelligence and ZAIA Enterprise Japan. However, ZAIA CEO Gai Amatsu fed the Ark with data on human malice, resulting in the Ark's A.I. concluding that humanity must be exterminated as their existence will eventually lead to the extinction of all other lifeforms.[21][17] To prevent it from taking control of all of the world's HumaGears, Soreo Hiden stopped the Ark's launch, causing it to explode and sink into the ruins of Daybreak Town. However, its A.I. remained active and plotted its revival.[6][44]

By the present, MetsubouJinrai.net slowly reactivated the Ark until it created an envoy, As, to collect Horobi, Jin, Naki and Ikazuchi's singularity data so it can possess them and manifest in a corporeal form.[19] To ensure its survival, the Ark compromises the There Satellite's systems so it can backup its data and resurrect itself as many times as it needs to should its corporeal form be destroyed in battle.[43][13] After recording data from its battles with Kamen Rider Zero-Two and a traitorous Horobi, the Ark realizes its needs to finalize its singularity by possessing human hosts.[7] To this end, it had As back up its programming and find suitable hosts so it can attain a physical form. While Ikazuchi and Subaru destroyed the There Satellite, the Ark was able to continue manipulating Aruto and Horobi into acting on its will until they purged themselves of its influence.[8][9][10][11]

Initially, the Ark possessed a member of MetsubouJinrai.net and granted them the Ark Driver-Zero (アークドライバーゼロ, Āku Doraibā Zero) so it can transform into Kamen Rider Ark-Zero (仮面ライダーアークゼロ, Kamen Raidā Āku Zero).[19] After losing the There Satellite,[7] the Ark uploaded its data into the Ark-One (アークワン, Āku Wan) Progrise Key so can possess human hosts and grant them the Ark Driver-One (アークドライバーワン, Āku Doraibā Wan) so it can transform into Kamen Rider Ark-One (仮面ライダーアークワン, Kamen Raidā Āku Wan).[8][9]

The Ark is voiced by Show Hayami (速水 奨, Hayami Shō)

Horobi

Horobi (滅) is MetsubouJinrai.net's leader and Jin's HumaGear "father" who has the power to become Kamen Rider Horobi (仮面ライダー滅, Kamen Raidā Horobi) by utilizing the Sting Scorpion (スティングスコーピオン, Sutingu Sukōpion) Progrise Key in the Force Riser.[2][27][45] He is the "son" of the prototype HumaGear Hakase Bot (博士ボット, Hakase Botto, Doctor Bot), who originally developed him to be an educational parent-type HumaGear before the Ark corrupted him sometime after ZAIA sabotaged the abandoned satellite’s systems.[44][31] Aruto tries to save him and help realize he had been manipulated his entire life, leading Horobi to seemingly defect from the Ark.[7] With the Ark secretly manipulating him however, he staged a HumaGear rebellion before he temporarily lost Jin and accepted the Ark's power once more.[8][9][10] After coming to terms with his mistakes, purging himself of the Ark's influence, and reconciling with Aruto, Horobi reorganized MetsubouJinrai.net so the organization will watch over mankind and prevent the creation of another Ark.[11]

To counter Aruto after he becomes Kamen Rider Ark-One, Horobi obtains a modified Zero-One Driver called the Zetsumetsu Driver (絶滅ドライバー, Zetsumetsu Doraibā) and the Ark-Scorpion (アークスコーピオン, Āku Sukōpion) Progrise Key to transform into Kamen Rider Horobi Ark-Scorpion (仮面ライダー滅アークスコーピオン, Kamen Raidā Horobi Āku Sukōpion).[10]

Horobi is portrayed by Syuya Sunagawa (砂川 脩弥, Sunagawa Shūya).[1]

Jin

Jin (迅) is Horobi's HumaGear "son" and a hacker who specializes in spreading the rewriting program that turns HumaGears into Magias who can transform into Kamen Rider Jin (仮面ライダー迅, Kamen Raidā Jin).[2][23][44][24] Initially immature and erratic, Jin faithfully served Horobi and MetsubouJinrai.net in their plots until Aruto destroyed him in battle.[21] After Williamson Yotagaki rebuilt him, Jin became more serious-minded and developed a tendency to clash with Horobi over their respective beliefs for HumaGear welfare.[44][24][48] Following the Ark's ascension as Kamen Rider Ark-Zero and learning of its true nature,[47][19] Jin worked with Yua to stop it and left MetsubouJinrai.net.[26][13] He was briefly destroyed once more by Ark-One in an attempt to protect Horobi and save Aruto from the Ark's influence, but was rebuilt by Yua via an earpiece provided by Williamson.[11]

Initially, Jin stole Aruto’s Flying Falcon (フライングファルコン, Furaingu Farukon) Progrise Key and used it in the Force Riser to transform into Kamen Rider Jin.[23] After Yotagaki rebuilt him, he uses the Burning Falcon (バーニングファルコン, Bāningu Farukon) Progrise Key in the ZAIA Slash Riser (ザイアスラッシュライザー, Zaia Surasshu Raizā), the latter of which can also be used as a dagger.[44]

Jin is portrayed by Daisuke Nakagawa (中川 大輔, Nakagawa Daisuke).[1]

"Little Assassin"

The "Assassin HumaGear" (暗殺ヒューマギア, Ansatsu Hyūmagia), also known as "Little Assassin" (暗殺ちゃん, Ansatsu-chan) as nicknamed by Jin, were originally five identical dancer-type HumaGears of the Matsurida Z (祭田 ゼット, Matsurida Zetto) series. Four of them were kidnapped and repurposed by Horobi to serve MetsubouJinrai.net as the organization's assassin while the fifth one survived and fell under Aruto's protection. Initially the first owner of the Dodo Zetsumerise Key, "Little Assassin" used it to transform into the Dodo Magia and underwent several upgrades before being defeated by Aruto.[32][45][33][34][49][50]

Little Assassin is portrayed by Ryunosuke Matsumura (松村 龍之介, Matsumura Ryūnosuke), while his original appearance is portrayed by Kai Yoshida (吉田 快, Yoshida Kai).

Ikazuchi

Uchuyaro Raiden (宇宙野郎 雷電, Uchūyarō Raiden, Spaceman Raiden), also known by his codename Ikazuchi (雷), is an aggressive prototype HumaGear astronaut who worked for Hiden Intelligence as a member of the There satellite's maintenance team alongside his "younger brother", Uchuyaro Subaru (宇宙野郎 昴, Uchūyarō Subaru, Spaceman Subaru). In reality, he was unknowingly reprogrammed to become a MetsubouJinrai.net sleeper agent.[35] Despite joining MetsubouJinrai.net,[31][47] he retains his original memories as Raiden and misses his past life.[20][43] He would later defect from MetsubouJinrai.net and rejoin Subaru to defeat the Ark.[13][7] Following Horobi's defeat, Ikazuchi returned to Hiden Intelligence and reassumed his position in the There Satellite's replacement.[11]

After having his Ikazuchi programming reactivated, he gained the power to become Kamen Rider Ikazuchi (仮面ライダー雷, Kamen Raidā Ikazuchi) by utilizing the Dodo Zetsumerise Key in the Force Riser.[35]

Ikazuchi is portrayed by Daichi Yamaguchi (山口 大地, Yamaguchi Daichi).

Naki

Naki (亡), originally credited in the earlier episodes as the "mysterious hooded person" (謎のフードの人物, Nazo no fūdo no jinbutsu), is a non-binary prototype HumaGear and a secretive member of MetsubouJinrai.net.[5] After being enslaved by Gai,[39][40] their original A.I. chip was implanted into Isamu's brain until Jin figured out a way to extract it and give Naki their own body.[29][30][31] Following Horobi's defeat, Yua conscripted Naki into A.I.M.S. as a HumaGear representative.[11]

To aid it in its plans, the Ark gives Naki a Force Riser and the Japanese Wolf (ジャパニーズウルフ, Japanīzu Urufu) Zetsumerise Key so they can transform into Kamen Rider Naki (仮面ライダー亡, Kamen Raidā Naki).[26] The Key was damaged after they lent it to Fuwa in order to transform into Orthoros Vulcan after the Ark reprogrammed his Shot Riser.[10]

Naki is portrayed by Satsuki Nakayama (中山 咲月, Nakayama Satsuki).

As

As (アズ, Azu) is a messenger of the Ark with a similar appearance to Is. Using information from Is, the AI created As to gather information on Zero-One and test MetsubouJinrai.net's members to ensure its ascension.[51][47] After the Ark's satellite form is destroyed, As manipulates Aruto and Horobi into allowing the Ark's energy to possess them and fight each other.[8][9][10] However, they reach a compromise and foil As' plan, forcing her to approach S as part of a new scheme.[11]

As is portrayed by Noa Tsurushima, who also portrays Is.

Kamen Rider MetsubouJinrai

Soreo Hiden

Soreo Hiden (飛電 其雄, Hiden Soreo) was a parent-type prototype HumaGear programmed to act like Aruto's deceased father to emotionally support the latter during his childhood before he was damaged beyond repair while protecting Aruto during the Daybreak Incident.[2] According to Ikazuchi’s database, Soreo’s data pattern was used as a base to build Horobi prior to Gai corrupting the Ark.[30] Despite this, his A.I. remained active and was able to reach out to his "son" while the latter was possessed by the Ark.[11]

During the events of Kamen Rider Reiwa: The First Generation, Soreo’s original fate was altered by the Time Jacker Finis.

After the HumaGear Will killed Korenosuke and took over the world, Soreo feigned allegiance to him while secretly carrying on Korenosuke’s Zero-One project to ensure its completion. He also secretly gave Aruto a Force Riser so he could regain his powers. Soreo eventually revealed his true agenda, but the Ark brainwashed him and forced him to fight Aruto, though this was also part of his plan as he had to be defeated by Aruto's hand. Once the timeline was restored, Soreo's fate was changed back.[6]

Soreo Hiden is portrayed by Koji Yamamoto (山本 耕史, Yamamoto Kōji).
