Synopsis[]

One year after Philip's departure, Shotaro continues onwards; but a case involving saving a boy's sister from Dopant thugs brings forth a change for the better.

Plot[]

One year after Philip's merging with the true Gaia Memory, after leaving a pet shop owned by Santachan upon giving the third degree to one of its workers for not having cat food he needed, Shotaro is followed by a young boy named Akira Aoyama who needs help finding his sister Yui who has gone missing for three days. Taking the case, and Akira with him, Shotaro goes to Watcherman and Queen & Elizabeth, learning that Yui was last seen with a gang calling themselves "EXE", a cult merchandising Gaia Memories. Eventually, Shotaro finds gang leader Shiro Endo with five EXE members and discover that Yui is being held captive, having revealed to have a Gaia Memory that she was trying to sell to them.

Endo announces themselves as the successor to Museum and taking over the Gaia Memory business. One of the EXE flunkies becomes the Anomalocaris Dopant while Endo's posse take their leave, but Shotaro transforms into Kamen Rider Joker and defeat him. A frightened Akira tries to leave and drop the case, but Shotaro catches up explains that they are no different in not being strong on their own. Returning to the office, Shotaro nearly gets off guard after hearing Philip's voice from one of Frog Pod's recordings per Akiko's request. Akira eventually prompts Akiko to explain who Philip was and his fate, thus learning the meaning behind Shotaro's words.

Suddenly, Akira gets a text message from Endo to come to their hideout alone to which he secretly does, where Yui reveals that she hid the Ocean Memory in his book bag. Akira and his sister run away as another EXE member transforms into the Cockroach Dopant to pursue them. Akira bravely tries to fend them off before Shotaro and Akiko arrive on time, having placed a tracking device on Akira's shoe. Shotaro compliments on Akira's guts just as he becomes Kamen Rider Joker to defeat the Cockroach Dopant and Ryu arrives taking down the rest of the EXE members. After destroying the Ocean Memory and arresting the EXE members, Shotaro believes that everything is resolved. However, the pet shop worker from earlier arrives, revealing himself as EXE's actual leader while transforming into the Energy Dopant. After one blast from his Energy rail gun, Shotaro falls to the ground, seemingly dead......or so thought. Shotaro appears alive and to everyone's shock, the Xtreme Memory blocked the fatal shot before Philip materializes out of nowhere! Philip explains himself through a flashback (thus explaining the in-between scenes and strange kaleido camera angles).

A year ago, not long after the final battle. Wakana manages to escape police custody, forcing Ryu to take her down until Shotaro intervenes and accidentally spilling the truth about Philip's sacrifice. A remorseful Wakana disappears from sight and turns to a terminally ill Shroud for assistance, to which she replies before passing away. Having researched the Gaia Library for her answer, Wakana initiates the "Gaia Impact" as she sacrifices her existence and restoring the Xtreme Memory and Philip back to life. Philip is then approached by his whole family in the Gaia Library, saying their goodbyes and entrusting Futo's and the Earth's well being to him as they dissolve into the True Gaia Memory. A tearful Philip thanks them as returns to Shotaro all the while watching him from afar while his body is being restored, and back to the present.

Everyone is overjoyed about Philip's return, especially the usual half-boiled Shotaro, until the moment is interrupted an ignored Energy who resumes his Dopant form. Together again, Shotaro and Philip transform into Kamen Rider Double, defeating the Energy Dopant as the credits roll.
