Icon-zi-oThis article is about an episode in Kamen Rider Zi-O.

Kingdom 2068 (キングダム２０６８, Kingudamu 2068) is the first episode of Kamen Rider Zi-O and the first part of the Kamen Rider Build tribute arc. Being so, it features the return of Sento Kiryu and Ryuga Banjo as portrayed by Atsuhiro Inukai and Eiji Akaso respectively. Geiz's Ghost Armor makes a brief appearance at the end of this episode.

Synopsis

Sougo Tokiwa seems like an ordinary high school student, but one thing he has different is that he has dreams of becoming a king! One day, a mysterious young man appeared before him with a prophecy. "Congratulations! Today is a special day for you..." As Sougo is told these words, a giant red robot suddenly appears before him! This robot was a time machine, and Sougo was thrust across various timelines! In the year 2000, the battle of the Heisei Rider's fate, and Sougo's fate in his own birth year, is about to begin...!

Continuity and Placement

Plot

In the year 2068, humanity is under the ruthless iron fist of Oma Zi-O. One day, a massive battle waged by the resistance breaks out, however Oma Zi-O slaughters them effortlessly with his seemingly omnipotent powers. Fed up with this hopeless situation, a fighter, Geiz Myoukouin, goes back to the past in the hope of killing the man behind Oma Zi-O's identity.

In the year 2018, we meet Sougo Tokiwa, a third year high-school student that wants to become a king. With such a childish dream, he is often teased by his friends at school. One day, he found a strange object and wisely decided to leave it. Back at home, Junichiro Tokiwa asks again about Sougo's seemingly unreachable dream of becoming a king in this age, abandoning even his future educations.

Later, when Sougo is on the road, he meets a mysterious person that read from a book about his future. Before Sougo knows what this is about, he is attacked by a strange red robot, but later saved by another robot, this time black. Inside he met Tsukuyomi, a girl from the future. Tsukuyomi reveals that 50 years later, Sougo becomes a ruthless Demon King. A conflicted Sougo went out from the robot, but attacked by a Tyrannosaurus, for they went to Cretaceous era to escape the red robot. Tsukuyomi saved him yet again, and this time they went to hide in the Edo era.

Sougo asks Tsukuyomi again about his future, and she reveals that everyone in the future knows about him. She also warns Sougo about the strange object, a Ridewatch (that somehow is back on Sougo's possession), that its power is great and too dangerous. Their discussion is interrupted by a fight nearby, and Tsukuyomi pushes Sougo to cease the conflict. But alas, Sougo is too timid to break the fight and he is thrown into a river, concluding the fight. Tsukuyomi began to wonder if Sougo is really the Demon King, as he doesn't have kingly charisma. But suddenly, a red armored warrior appears and chase them!

Tsukuyomi said that the red warrior is actually Geiz, her friend from the resistance. He wants to kill Sougo before he become Zi-O, but Tsukuyomi doesn't agree and went to Sougo to guide him into a benevolent ruler instead. Geiz attacks Tsukuyomi's Time Mazine again, and in the confusion, Sougo is thrown into a hole in time-space...

After coming to, Sougo sees a huge wall in the horizon. As he ponders, a strange lifeform attacks him! Luckily, two armored warriors came to save him. The two later reveals themselves as Sento Kiryu, Kamen Rider Build and Ryuga Banjo, Kamen Rider Cross-Z. Sento took Sougo to his base of operations, the cafe nascita and Sougo realizes that he's now in the year 2017. Sento is surprised that Sougo came from the future, but before he asks anything, Tsukuyomi appears and shot the three of them into unconsciousness, as Sougo isn't supposed to interact with the past. Sougo wakes up back in his house and told his uncle about his adventures before, citing it all as a dream.

Back in 2017, at some part of the city, a basketball player is about to struck by a speeding car until he is saved by a mysterious person. He is Uhr, and he told the player that he's supposedly hit by the car today. Uhr told the player that he can change his fate with his help, and the player agrees. He is then gifted with an Another Watch, and Uhr declared that the player will become Kamen Rider Build!

In 2018, the kaijin, using Build's ability, attacked his former schoolmates and sucks them into an Empty Bottle. Hearing a ruckus, Sougo arrived and tossed mercilessly by the kaijin, for he's just a normal human. Tsukuyomi comes to help and fight the kaijin in his place instead, so that Sougo won't use the Ridewatch to fight. Then, the mysterious man appears again, that Tsukuyomi indentifies as Woz, and says to Sougo that his dream to become a king can only be achieved if he stands up and fight now. Of course Tsukuyomi doesn't agree, because if Sougo choose to fight, he will surely become the Demon King in the future!

Sougo then declares that he will become a Demon King, but he will become the most nice and kind Demon King ever! Proud of his choice, Woz presents Sougo a Ziku-Driver and Sougo transforms to Kamen Rider Zi-O! Sougo then defeats the kaijin with his newfound powers.

Then, Geiz appears yet again as he finally found the Demon King Zi-O! He transforms into his Rider form, and using Ghost Ridewatch, equips Ghost Armor as he proceeds to attack Zi-O...

Takeru's Ore Damashii in ZiO

Takeru's soul summoned by Geiz

  • The Ore Damashii's appearance alongside Geiz Ghost Armor coincidentally matches Takeru Tenkuji's death before the year of 2068 due to him losing half of his lifetime in the novel Kamen Rider Ghost: ~Memories of the Future~.[1]
  • As a special occasion, the year 2017 gets mentioned twice, once as the "negated" timeline of World of Build, where Sougo ends up accidentally after the fight with Geiz, and once as the main timeline where Uhr creates Another Build.
