Johnny Maxima (ジョニー・マキシマ Jonī Makishima) was the CEO of Machina Vision. He was able to transform into a red colored Gamedeus, Gamedeus Machina (ゲムデウスマキナ Gemudeusu Makina). [1]
History
Johnny Maxima's profile as seen on Machina Vision's webpage.
- "You're a greedy one, aren't you, President Johnny Maxima?"
- ―Masamune Dan[src]
Johnny Maxima accepted Masamune Dan's request for Machina Vision to co-operate with Genm Corp.'s worldwide release project for Kamen Rider Chronicle, on the condition that he receive a single Gamer Driver. Destiny Reboot!
- "The ending for Kamen Rider Chronicle is near...Mister Masamune!"
- ―Johnny Maxima, witnessing the endgame of Kamen Rider Chronicle[src]
After the Reset, Masamune discovers that Johnny is not looking to push for the worldwide release of Kamen Rider Chronicle, but is instead focusing on developing his own game, and refuses to hand over the Gamer Driver. As a result, Johnny ends their deal and leaves. He's shown taking Graphite's Gashacon Bugvisor after his destruction. He witnesses the arrival of Gamedeus and comments how Kamen Rider Chronicle is entering its final stage. Reset Game!
It would later be revealed that shortly after ending his deal, Johnny Maxima orchestrated for hackers to target the Genm Corp servers, who would successfully steal the Gamer Driver schematics along with the Rider Gashat Development Data. Using his vast resources, he would build a Gamer Driver and the Hurricane Ninja Gashat. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: True Ending
Personality
Not much to be known about Johnny's traits, except that he is a CEO whose god complex is already shown before the involvement of Bugster virus. Although self-proclaimed as a fan of Japanese cultures, including ninja, Kiriya pointed on his poor research of mistaking the kanji for "Negi" (葱 welsh onion) as "Shinobi" (忍 "ninja").
