As others have said, the heroine called Kamen Rider Mage is actually a Kamen Rider. Go figure.

Valvarad is also a Rider, ever since Episode 21.

There was that time when Mutsuki and Hikaru took care of/abducted Amane when she temporarily lost her sight.

Due to Switchblade's claim that Kamen Rider Hibiki only has 29 episodes.

In-universe, there's also the fact that Shuki is a rogue Oni, which means she doesn't uphold the spirit of Kamen Rider anyway, despite carrying the title for marketing reasons.
