History
Kamen Norider
Takeshi is a young man who was kidnapped by the secret organization Jocker and forced to undergo a procedure that turns him into a super-powered cyborg. Before he can be brainwashed into doing Joker's in-joke and bidding, he escapes and becomes the Kamen Norider, fighting for humanity's smile against the evil forces that created him. Each episode sees Takeshi meeting another of Jocker's cyborg, interacting with supporting characters (such as his mentor, Tachibana Tobee), and ultimately get married with his girlfriend and retired.
Kamen Rider Zi-O: Over Quartzer
Somehow, Takeshi was imprisoned due to his self-proclaimed "Kamen Rider" status but later encouraged Sougo Tokiwa about the true meaning of Kamen Rider after he saw Sougo was imprisoned as well. Takeshi disappeared without Sougo knowing.

- Kamen Norider's name is a play to the original Kamen Rider name, since the character itself was a parody character to the original Kamen Rider.

- However, he was seen on his civilian outfit only, due to his self-proclaimed "Kamen Rider" status.
