After the offiicial launching of their new main page and the associated press conference, we now have several new details about the 15th Hesei Era Kamen Rider!

*The story of Kamen Rider Gaimu will take place in a corporate-controlled city and the main monsters are known as Inbess creatures. In addition, street dance is the common ground between the locals and the Kamen Riders.

*There are FIVE main Riders this year, all of them fruit themed using special devices called Lock Seeds to utilize various forms and powers. Gaimu uses Orange and Pineapple LockSeeds for his main form. The other four Riders are Baron (Banana themed) Ryugen (Grape themed), Griton (Coconut themed) and Zangetsu (Melon themed).

*Kamen Rider Gaimu's true name is Kota Kazuraba, and he will be played by Sano Gaku. He is a backup dancer for one of the street crews and meets the other Kamen Riders through his dancing experiences.

*Baron is the rival Kamen Rider to Team Gaimu, known as Kaito Kumon in human form; a power-hungry warrior who despises the weak. Ryugen is Gaimu's best friend, a secretly-wealthy schoolboy. Zangetsu is Ryugen's older brother, working at the mysterious Yggdrasil Corporation that owns their city.

*The series' main writer is one Gen Urobuchi who has previously worked on a variety of anime projects including Fate/Zero and Magi Madoka. Gaimu will be directed by Ryuta Tasaki, veteran of multiple Rider and Sentai projects.
