He appeared before the riders and defeated them. The Liner crews arrived too late to prevent Shocker from rising again and changing the course of history itself, with [[Kohtaro Minami]] remaining as Black, and also resulting in many Riders being brainwashed. However, there are the minority of Riders who were not affected by the changing of history, such as the Liner crews (notably from [[DenLiner]] and [[ZeroLiner]], including [[Takumi Inui]]), who are trying to resist the reign of Shocker. Because of this he is known as the "Rider who should never have existed." |
In an altered world, he now was on the run from the Kamen Riders who are turned into Shocker Riders. Only [[Shinnosuke Tomari]], [[Yuto Sakurai]], and Go Shijima appear to assist him to clear his name as a "Rider". |

After losing to Drive, Rider 3 accepted his loss, while Shocker still do not know how to accept theirs, as the Great Leader took Rider 3 and held him as a prisoner to activate Rider Robo. |

This article is about a Rider in Kamen Rider Drive. |

- "Win and you are just, lose and you are evil."
- ―Kamen Rider 3's words to Drive.[src]
Kyoichiro Kuroi (黒井 響一郎, Kuroi Kyoichirō) is the central antagonist of Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3. He is a cyborg created in the future and sent to the past as Kamen Rider 3 (仮面ライダー3号, Kamen Raidā Sangō) as part of Shocker's plans to change history.
History
Origin
Kyochiro Kuroi was once a failed F-1 racer until he was "captured" by the remnants of Shocker, or perhaps, he himself found and confronted them, and let himself turned into a cyborg to be the strongest one there is. Unaware to Kyoichiro, he was added with a special attachment to be a vessel for the Great Leader's revival as the Rider Robo.
First Deployment
Kamen Rider 3's creation was caused by using of History Modifying Machine developed by Roidmude 089 disguised as Dr. Dee using the very last of his cells. He was first seen using Go Shijima as his training dummy for his preparation for Shocker's plan. Although he did spared Mach as he told the Rider that he is not the one he was after. After Roidmude 089's demise, Kamen Rider 3 opened his helmet, commented that said Roidmude was a prototype of the History Modifying Machine and that Shocker's true plan is about to start. [Shuriken Sentai Ninninger Vs. Kamen Rider Drive Spring Vacation One-Hour Combining Special]
The Rider Who Never Was
Shocker sent Kamen Rider 3 back in time in 1973, right after the Double Riders defeated the Great Leader of Gel Shocker. He appeared before the riders and defeated them. The Liner crews arrived too late to prevent Shocker from rising again and changing the course of history itself, with Kohtaro Minami remaining as Black, and also resulting in many Riders being brainwashed. However, there are the minority of Riders who were not affected by the changing of history, such as the Liner crews (notably from DenLiner and ZeroLiner, including Takumi Inui), who are trying to resist the reign of Shocker. Because of this he is known as the "Rider who should never have existed."
In an altered world, he now was on the run from the Kamen Riders who are turned into Shocker Riders. Only Shinnosuke Tomari, Yuto Sakurai, and Go Shijima appear to assist him to clear his name as a "Rider".
After acting as if he was attempting to sacrifice his life by saving Yuto from a large group of Shocker Riders, Kuroi revealed that his true loyalties lied with Shocker, he betrays Yuto, revealing that Rider Town was a trap for Kamen Riders. He is then challenged by Shinnosuke, who had arrived and had anticipated the trap, to a race, under the conditions that if Tomari wins, Shocker must set Kiriko, who was revealed to be alive, free and release the Riders from their brainwashing. Throughout the race he and the other brainwashed Riders cheat to ensure Drive's loss. This however fails, due to Drive having remaining allies in Faiz, Mach and Black RX, as well as Drive's empathy as a champion of justice and a Rider, especially about Rider 3's regret on killing the original Double Riders before the alteration timeline. After losing to Drive, Rider 3 accepted his loss, while Shocker still do not know how to accept theirs, as the Great Leader took Rider 3 and held him as a prisoner to activate Rider Robo.
Later the Double Riders were able to revive themselves due to their spirits inside the Rider Robo, breaking the Riders' brainwashing as the Great Leader went too far on erasing the Riders from existence, Rider 3 managed to break free from the Great Leader's control. He teams up with 1 and 2 and the remaining Kamen Riders.
As he revealed that the Rider Robo housed the History Modifying Machine, he tells the Riders that he'll be fine and allows the Ninningers and Drive destroy the Rider Robo. After the Rider Robo is destroyed, all of Shocker's changes to history were undone, restoring the timeline back to normal. As Kyoichiro bid his allies farewell and, he states that they'll see him on the other side. Kyoichiro's place in the timeline is restored, and he resumes his normal life as a racer, now under the promotion of the Tachibana Racing Club and BOARD.[Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3]

Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
Kyoichiro Kuroi is portrayed by Mitsuhiro Oikawa (及川光博, Oikawa Mitsuhiro). As Kamen Rider 3, his suit actor is Eitoku (永徳 ).[3]
Notes
- Kyoichiro's racing jacket, after being restored into the timeline, has Kamen Rider-related logos as sponsership patches such as the Tachibana Racing Club and BOARD.
- His Shocker Rider title is listed as "Shocker Rider 3". This is not to be confused with Shocker Rider No.3 from the original Kamen Rider series.
