Kamen Rider Revice (仮面ライダーリバイス, Kamen Raidā Ribaisu) is a Japanese tokusatsu drama and the 32nd entry of Toei Company's Kamen Rider metaseries. It is the third series to debut during the Reiwa period and commemorates the 50th anniversary of the franchise. The series premiered on September 5, 2021, joining Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger in the Super Hero Time line-up following the finale of Kamen Rider Saber.
Plot[]
In 1971, a scientific expedition in Latin America led to the discovery of Vistamps, artifacts that can extract a person's inner devil, and the remains of the first devil Giff. In the present, Giff's remains were stolen by a demon cult called Deadmans, who seek to resurrect him by using Proto Vistamps to convert peoples' inner devils to their fold. Opposing Deadmans is an organization called Fenix, which developed the Revice Driver for someone who has tamed their inner devil. Ikki Igarashi, who runs a sentō with his family, ends up acquiring the belt while forming a pact with his inner devil, Vice, to fight Deadmans together as Kamen Riders Revi and Vice.

Production[]
The Kamen Rider Revice trademark was registered by Toei on May 6, 2021.[1]
On July 27, 2021, Kamen Rider Revice was officially announced during a press conference alongside its cast.
The opening theme song is performed by the vocal and dance group Da-ice collaborating with Subaru Kimura.
Kamen Rider Revi's main vehicle, a hoverbike that Kamen Rider Vice can transform into, is based on the real life Xturismo hoverbike developed by A.L.I. Technologies.[2]
Initially, the original concept for Revice was that all of the past Kamen Rider series took place in their own TV series. However, due to Kamen Rider Revice guest starring in Kamen Rider Saber, the staff decided to create a new concept inspired by Kamen Rider Den-O and Kamen Rider Zi-O instead.[citation needed]
Films[]
Both Kamen Riders Revi and Vice made their debut in the crossover film Saber + Zenkaiger: Super Hero Senki and in a special film with the same title as the series double-billed with it. The events of the special film take place between episodes 3 and 4.[3]
