Icon-zi-oThis article is about a monstrous Rider in Kamen Rider Zi-O.

"No! I have to save you! I swear, I'll save you Karin!"
―Ryuichi Sakuma as Another Fourze.[src]

Ryuichi Sakuma (佐久間 龍一, Sakuma Ryūichi) transformed into two Another Riders, Another Fourze (アナザーフォーゼ, Anazā Fōze), derived from Kamen Rider Fourze Basestates, and Another Faiz (アナザーファイズ, Anazā Faizu), derived from Kamen Rider Faiz.

Character History[]

"I'm afraid I have some bad news for you. But there's good news, too. After this scene here, you'll blame yourself for the rest of your life, but if you make a contract with me, you can save this girl."
―Ora[src]

2003[]

In 2003, Ryuichi was a student at Ryusei School and the boyfriend of Karin Yamabuki. When Karin was killed in a car accident, the Time Jacker Ora appeared before Ryuichi and offered him an Another Rider contract that would save Karin. He immediately accepted and was transformed into Another Faiz, causing Kamen Rider Faiz's existence and history to disappear. Using the power of Another Faiz, Ryuichi kidnapped and transformed female high school students sharing Karin's age and astrological sign (Libra) into life energy that would keep Karin alive, making her transfer to different schools whenever his actions became too conspicuous.

2011[]

In 2011, Ryuichi's power as Another Faiz began to fade, causing him great distress. Swartz, another Time Jacker, came to him and granted him another contract that warped Ryuichi into Another Fourze, erasing Kamen Rider Fourze's existence. Renewed and upgraded, Ryuichi continued to kidnap girls and keep Karin alive.

2018[]

In 2018, while Sougo Tokiwa, Geiz Myokoin, and Tsukuyomi were investigating the disappearances caused by Ryuichi, currently at Amanogawa High School, Masato Kusaka attempted to kill Karin by throwing her off of a roof, drawing the attention of Sougo, Geiz, and Tsukuyomi. Ryuichi caught and saved Karin, but was confronted by Sougo and Geiz, and fled after a brief fight with Zi-O and Geiz BuildArmor.

Sougo and Geiz later traveled to 2011 to stop Ryuichi's first attack as Another Fourze, and Ryuichi was defeated by Zi-O FourzeArmor. However, his original contract as Another Faiz reflected the defeat and allowed Ryuichi to maintain his Another Fourze powers. [Switch On! 2011]

In 2018, Karin stopped Ryuichi from taking another victim, tired of surviving off of the stolen lives of others. Masato Kusaka then appeared and again attempted to kill Karin, to relieve her of the life imposed on her by Ryuichi. Ryuichi retaliated by attempting to choke Kusaka to death, but was thwarted by Takumi Inui, and fled soon after. With the situation explained by Kusaka, Geiz traveled to 2003 with the Faiz Ridewatch to stop Ryuichi's first attack as Another Faiz, while Sougo stopped his first attack as Another Fourze in 2011. Ryuichi was simultaneously defeated as Another Faiz by Geiz FaizArmor, and as Another Fourze by Zi-O FourzeArmor while Karin pled with him to let her die. At last, Ryuichi understood and accepted that his power was only making Karin suffer even more. With one final embrace, he bid farewell to the one he loved as she disintegrated out of existence.

2019[]

Sakuma 2019

Sakuma being attacked by Another Ex-Aid (Hiryu Kakoagwa).

Few months later, it was shown that Ryuichi graduated high school and was now an astronomer at the Yotsuba Observatory. He noticed the strange phenomenon of Regulus shining brighter than it usually did and earlier in the year than normal while using the telescope the previous night and was on the phone with a colleague at another observatory to confirm his findings and try to figure out what was going on. He was then attacked by Hiryu Kakogawa, revealing he had no memory of being Another Fourze and Faiz while attacked by him. His power of Another Faiz was extracted from him and Kamen Rider Geiz intervened before Hiryu could obtain Another Fourze's power. Sougo stayed by Ryuichi's side until he regained consciousness when the fighting ended to make sure he was okay.[Another Zi-O 2019]

Another Fourze opened his eyes and mouth

Another Fourze opened his eyes and mouth

"Fourze!"
―Transformation announcement[src]
  • Height: 200 cm
  • Weight: 95 kg
  • Creator: Swartz
  • Year of Origin: 2011
  • Position of year: Left shoulder
  • Name and position: "FOURZE"; Right shoulder.
Powers and Abilities
  • Lifespan Manipulation: Like Another Faiz, Another Fourze is able to absorb people and convert them into energy, which can then be used to revive the deceased. However, the revived subject can only use energies made from people sharing their age and astrological sign and must receive these "life injections" regularly to maintain their form.

  • Self-Resurrection: As with Another Riders, Fourze cannot be destroyed unless with the Ridewatch that correspond to his Rider Powers. With the power of Another Faiz resurfaces, Another Fourze can revive himself even when the Ridewatch of same power was used to defeat him.
Weaknesses
  • Fourze and Faiz Ridewatches: As Ryuichi is two Another Riders in one host, he can only be defeated when both users of Fourze and Faiz Ridewatches defeated him in the era that he was created.

Appearances: Zi-O Episodes 5-6


Another Faiz
KRZiO-Another Faiz

Another Faiz

"Faiz!"
―Transformation announcement[src]
  • Height: 186.0 cm
  • Weight: 91.0 kg
  • Creator: Ora
  • Year of Origin: 2003
  • Position of year: Left shoulder
  • Name and position: "FAIZ"; Right shoulder.
Powers and Abilities
  • Lifespan Manipulation: Another Faiz is able to absorb people and convert them into energy, which can then be used to revive the deceased. However, the revived subject can only use energies made from people sharing their age and astrological sign and must receive these "life injections" regularly to maintain their form.
  • Rider Kick: Another Faiz can shroud his entire body with red aura to perform his variation of Faiz Blaster's Crimson Smash.
Weaknesses
  • Fourze and Faiz Ridewatches: As Ryuichi is two Another Riders in one host, he can only be defeated when both users of Fourze and Faiz Ridewatches defeated him in the era that he was created.
  • Power Decline: Another Riders' lifespan are limited and would eventually fade away. Overusing their power would accelerate this proccess,[2] as seen when Another Faiz's power began to fade after 7 years. Their lifespan can be prolonged by taking a new Another Riderwatch, gaining a new Another Rider form from it if said Ridewatch is different. [555・913・2003]

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

Sakuma is portrayed by Atomu Mizuishi (水石 亜飛夢, Mizuishi Atomu), who previously portrayed Crow in Garo: Makai no Hana, and later went on to portray Shiguru OshikiriIcon-crosswiki/KiramaBlue in Mashin Sentai KiramagerIcon-crosswiki.

As Another Fourze and Another Faiz, his suit actor is Eitoku (永徳). Meanwhile, the announcements made from Another Fourze's use of Energy Modules are recycled from the Fourze Driver announcements.

Concept Art[]

Another Fourze and Another Faiz were designed by Tamotsu Shinohara (篠原 保, Shinohara Tamotsu).


Notes[]

  • Since Another Faiz is meant to be transformed from Another Fourze, they both share the same under suit.
Another Faiz rises from the fire

Another Fourze molting into Another Faiz

  • Ryuichi Sakuma is the antithesis of Kamen Rider Fourze and Kamen Rider Faiz. Takumi Inui had initially refused or procrastinated in becoming the Faiz Driver's main user before choosing to fight to protect people's dreams, whereas Sakuma took the opportunity to become Another Faiz he had and willing to take the life energy from innocent civilians. Gentaro Kisaragi emphasized friendship above all else and was a person who spared no effort for his friends, while Sakuma continued to act alone and focused Karin as his only form of companionship.
    • Ryuichi's personality is most similar to the Secondary Riders, Masato Kusaka and Ryusei Sakuta. His unwavering efforts to save Karin mirror Ryusei's commitment to rescuing his best friend. The reference in Sakuma's name pays homage to Ryusei as well as the Ryusei School. As an alumnus of Ryusei School, he relies on a specific female classmate and is driven towards villainy, similar to Kusaka.
  • Despite serving as an antithesis to Kamen Rider Fourze, Another Fourze spontaneously performs Gentaro's "Space is Here!" (宇宙キター!, Uchū Kitā!) pose upon being created by Swartz, though he does not say the line. This continues a recurring gag of characters with clashing personalities being compelled to evoke Gentaro Kisaragi when assuming the power of Fourze, following Specter as Fourze Damashii in Fourze Chapter, and Zangetsu as Fourze Arms in Kamen Rider Gaim: Sengoku Battle Royale.
  • Ryuichi showing symptoms of declining due to short lifespan pays homage to the Orphnochs and Horoscopes.
  • Although the red Photon Blood-like veins were meant to represent Faiz, it also resembles the Zodiarts' trademark constellation lines.
  • Another Faiz is the first in show Another Rider to be based on a Rider from the First Phase of the Heisei Era.
