History[]
Kamen Rider Ryuki: Episode Final[]
All of her story is told in the movie, Kamen Rider Ryuki: Episode Final, which was considered an alternate ending to the TV series. She is a con-artist who seduces wealthy men in order to steal their money and/or valuables. Miho accepted Kanzaki's proposal to join the Rider War for two reasons: to resurrect her sister, who was killed by Takeshi Asakura (Kamen Rider Ouja), and to take revenge on Asakura for his act.
Shinji met Miho while she was running from a man she tried swindling. A brief romantic interest in Shinji was shown as the two interacted and were often seen bickering like an old married couple. Though she often berated him, she would still perform acts of kindness toward him (such as tying his shoelaces). Miho was rather dedicated to winning the war, as in one scene she tried to steal Shinji's deck before he realized and told her off.
Ouja's death
Miho eventually succeeds in killing Asakura by destroying his deck when he was in blank form after Kamen Rider Ryuga destroyed Genocider and saved her. Asakura was reverted to human form and tried to strangle her, but eventually disintegrated. Miho was glad that she avenged her sister, now with one task finished.
Miho's death
Miho was thankful to Shinji (who was she mistook Ryuga as him) and treated him to dinner. However Ryuga then came out of the mirror and tried to harm her, before he revealed himself. Miho was eventually saved by Shinji, as Ryuki came in the nick of time. They escaped later, and Shinji walking Miho home. Despite having sustained fatal injuries from Ryuga, Miho deliberately acted normally in front of Shinji, not wishing for him to feel burdened from her death. Once he had left her sight, Miho then collapsed on the ground, no longer having the strength to stand. Immediately afterwards, Miho apologized to her sister, having failed to win the Rider War. Soon after, she then spoke to Shinji in her final breath, glad to have him before dying.

Miho can transform into Kamen Rider Femme using her Card Deck and V Buckle upon forming a contract with Blancwing. Her Visor, the Blancvisor, is a rapier that also functions as her personal weapon. Femme's kicking power and running speed are average, but her punching power is the lowest out of all of the 13 Riders and she is tied with Zolda for the lowest jump height.
Through the use of her Sword Vent Advent Card, Femme can arm herself with the Wingslasher (ウイングスラッシャー, Wingu Surasshā), a double-bladed staff derived from the edges of Blancwing's wings combined together. Her Guard Vent equips her with the Wingshield (ウイングシールド, Wingu Shīrudo), a shield derived from Blancwing's wings and back. It is able to summon a gust of white feathers and allows her to teleport within short distances so as to confuse and evade enemy attacks. In addition, Femme is always seen with Blancwing's torso mounted on her back, equipping her with a cape.
By using her Final Vent, Femme can execute her finisher, the Misty Slash (ミスティースラッシュ, Misutī Surasshu), which equips her with the Wingslasher if she does not already possess it. Blancwing then flies behind the enemy and creates a gust by flapping its wings, sending the opponent flying towards Femme, who slashes it with the Wingslasher.

Relationship[]
Allies[]
- Shinji Kido: In the movie, Shinji became friendly with Miho despite their differences. The two acted like an old married couple, bickering with each other in a caring manner. It is hinted that Miho had feelings for Shinji, which may have been mutual. The novel version confirmed this, with the two becoming intimate with each other. Even near death, Miho continued to act normally in front of Shinji, so that he did not feel grief when she died. Official material hinted that Miho would have actually dropped her vendetta and survived had she met Shinji earlier, showing that his influence towards her was very significant.
Enemies[]
- Takeshi Asakura: In the movie, Takeshi kills her sister, causing Miho to take revenge regardless of the cost when she entered Rider War, taking every opportunity to kill him. After Dark Shinji fatally wounded Asakura, Miho ended up dealing the final blow to him, killing him, thus fulfilling her revenge.
- Mirror Image Shinji: In the movie, Dark Shinji helps Miho kill Asakura and assists her, but with the goal of making the Riders die one by one, Even when he pretends to be the real Shinji, he revealed a dark and cold attitude to her, as when they fought, he showed no mercy towards her, fatally wounding her.

Notes[]
- Kamen Rider Femme is the first official female Rider in the Kamen Rider Series, as Electronic Wave Humanoid Tackle is not considered to be a Rider by Toei.
- Femme was originally conceived as a female version of Knight with a white bat motif, and the shape of the solid helmet shield and cloak are remnants of that.[7] She was initially designed with a male physique, as there were ideas to surprise the audience that she was really a woman after she disengaged her transformation.[8]
Femme's cape with a different shade of white
- In Kamen Rider Decade, when Daiki Kaito summons Kamen Rider Femme to fight Black, her cape didn't have its characteristic white color, instead being cream-colored.
