In the special, Shinnosuke experiences a repeating temporal timeloop related to an evil plan concocted by Shocker in the creation of their new unique Rider, Kamen Rider 4.
Continuity and Placement[]
- Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3: This occurs after the movie.

Plot[]
The plot goes around a time loop created by the Shocker that resets whenever someone dies, but whenever the loop resets Shocker itself somehow grows stronger and stronger.
