Kamen Rider Den-O The Movie: I'll, Be Born! (劇場版 仮面ライダー電王 俺、誕生！…, Gekijōban Kamen Raidā Den-Ō: Ore, Tanjō!..., Masked Rider Den-O The Movie: I'll be Born!) is a Japanese superhero Tokusatsu film that serves as the Summer Movie adaptation of Kamen Rider Den-O, double-billed with Juken Sentai Gekiranger: Nei-Nei! Hou-Hou! Hong Kong Decisive Battle
. The film was met with box office success, coming in 4th place during its opening weekend. In the film, the Den-O gang chase a rogue Kamen Rider through the Edo-period of Japan.
The movie catchphrase is "The Advent of the Battle God!! Rushing, how the waves of space-time are. Breaking the thousand-year seal, we are now on the path of God." (戦闘神、降臨‼ 急行せよ、時空の波方は。数千年の封印を破り、いま俺たちは神の路線に乗る。, Sentō-shin, Kōrin‼ Kyūkō-seyo, Jikū no namikata wa. Sūsennen no Fūin wo yaburi, ima ore-tachi wa kami no rosen ni noru.).
Because of the film's success, the series spawned the Cho Den-O Series.
Synopsis[]
As shown in episode 27, Ryotaro pursues the Molech Imagin to May 8, 2000. Though Den-O Sword Form destroys the Molech Imagin, the Imagin fulfilled his mission as the DenLiner ends up hijacked by the rest of the Imagin led by a rogue Kamen Rider named Kamen Rider Gaoh. After stealing Owner's Master Pass and trapping Urataros and Kintaros, Gaoh forces the DenLiner to travel back in time via "God's Line" to the Edo Period of Japan so he can retrieve the legendary God's Train, the Gaoh-Liner.
Trapped in 2000, Ryotaro and Hana encounter Ryotaro's younger self at age 10 as well as their old friend, the Imagin Sieg. In order to prevent confusion between the two incarnations of Ryotaro, they call the younger one "Kotaro". By the time Yuto finds them, Ryotaro has lost his memory of everything related to Den-O. As a result, Momotaros cannot possess him, forcing him to take Kotaro as a host instead. However, Sieg's special talents allow him to still possess Ryotaro, offering his aid when the gang uses the ZeroLiner to pursue Gaoh, with Kotaro joining them.
After being sent into the Mesozoic period by Gaoh, the gang arrived in the Edo Era and got Senhime's aid in sneaking into the camp of Yukimura Sanada who is aiding Gaoh. Though the reunited Tarōs defeat Sanada's ninjas, Gaoh succeeds in obtaining the Gaoh-Liner and travels forward to December 26, 1988, the day Ryotaro was born, to make an example out of Ryotaro. Ryotaro and Momotaros are forced to fight him and his band on his own until Yuto arrives with the past Ryotaros he borrowed for the "Climax Scene".
After the long battle, the Den-Os and Zeronos emerge victorious as Gaoh is destroyed by Sword Form. On the return trip back to his own time, the DenLiner comes across Ryotaro's old house as Ryotaro finally gets to see the face of his parents for the first and last time. Sieg and Kotaro also return to their respective timelines as well, resuming their places in history. When Ryotaro returns to the present, he finds a drawing of his parents in the picture frame where the original photo once was.
Continuity and Placement[]
- This film takes place between episodes 27 and 28. However, the appearance of the three possessed Ryotaro during the movie's climax is associated with Yuto Sakurai pulling Ryotaro out of time three separate times during two prior episodes.

- This is the only film appearance of Hana, before actress Yuriko Shiratori left the show.
- This is also the only summer film that doesn't feature the primary Rider's final form.
- Den-O's climax fight with Gaoh is featured in Kamen Rider: Battride War II.
- This is the first summer film since Kamen Rider Agito: Project G4 to be canon to the series.
- The title refers to Momotaros's catchphrase said once he transforms into a Den-O form that is "I'm, On Stage!..." (俺、参上！…, Ore, Sanjō!...).
