Synopsis[]
Ikki officially decided to fight as Kamen Rider Revice contracted by Fenix. His father, Gen Igarashi, takes advantage of this and starts a project called "Gen-chan" to increase the number of subscribers to "Gen-chan's Channel". Ikki is busy collecting information to prevent future Deadmans attacks, but he's hit a wall as no further requests have come in.
However, one day an old man gives him a tip, saying his grandson is broadcasting something known as a "Punishment Livestream". In the video, a Deadman is created and is used to reform a sweatshop exploiting its employees. Not to mention, the whole thing is being broadcast live. Ikki decides to become the first Rider to try to change the world.
Meanwhile, at Fenix HQ, the theft of Vistamps has started to become a problem. Tensions run high among the higher-ups as Daiji and Hiromi are urgently convened. However, Commander Wakabayashi and George Karizaki's eyes are focused solely on one man. For the name of the card key that was used to access the lab read "Hiromi Kadota".
Plot[]
Hiromi is still reeling over the fact that he was demoted. He seemingly steals the Kong and Lion Vistamps and gives it to a young man in an alleyway who thanks him afterwards.
With Ikki having signed an official contract with Fenix, Shiawase Yu has become a hotspot for people to report any Deadman sightings, however most of the issues have been minor, leaving Ikki exhausted. Meanwhile at a Fenix meeting, Wakabayashi reports the two missing Vistamps, with George glaring at Hiromi knowing that his card was used in the theft. Meanwhile, Ikki gets a help request from an old man who is looking for his grandson. The grandson, the one who received the Vistamps from the unknown Fenix member, was livestreaming in front of an office building before being detained by security guards. He activates and summons the Lion Deadmen live on camera, prompting Ikki and Vice to dispatch there to take care of business. Ikki reminds Masao of his familial bonds, as Masao is later taken in for rehab at Fenix.
At Fenix, Daiji has an idea to use Masao as bait to lure out the Deadman generals, allowing Masao to atone for his mistakes. They present the idea to Ikki, who despite being reluctant to involve civilians, agrees to be Masao's bodyguard for the mission. Before George leaves, he presents Ikki the Lion Vistamp.
At the warehouse with Fenix soldiers stationed in-and-out, Hiromi turns his gun against his fellow soldiers. Masao begins his livestreams and is about to destroy the Lion Vistamp, but the sudden interruption of Julio and Orteca freak him out, and the Vistamp falls into Orteca's hands. However, Ikki and Vice jump out, revealing that the Vistamp was a fake and transform into battle. Mid-battle, they transform using the real Lion Vistamp into Lion Genome and defeat them. At the end of their fight, a mysterious black rider appears from nowhere and ambushes Revi and Vice, while the Deadmans generals tak their leave. Outside, all of the Fenix soldiers have been taken out, while Revi questions the black rider's identity.
