- "I'm the one who decides how this story ends!"
- ―Saber's catchphrase[src]
Touma Kamiyama (神山飛羽真, Kamiyama Tōma) is the main protagonist of Kamen Rider Saber. He is a novelist and bookstore owner who fights the Megiddo as Kamen Rider Saber (仮面ライダーセイバー, Kamen Raidā Seibā) in the hopes of recovering his lost childhood memories.
History
Early Life
Touma was born in Wonder World and was friends with Kento Fukamiya & Luna. As a child, he was caught in the battle between the Sword of Logos and the Megiddo. However, when Luna was sucked to a tornado, Touma tried to save her but lost the grasp of her hand. He was rescued by the previous Kamen Rider Saber at the time, before being sent to Earth, and inherited his Brave Dragon Wonder Ridebook. As a result of arriving into a foreign world, he lost the memories of his past.
Adulthood
Sometime later, Touma became a novelist and opened his very own antique bookstore called Fantastic Bookstore Kamiyama, with Mei Sudo as his editor. Although he lost his childhood memories, he was able to relive the past memories through what he believed to be dreams.
Becoming Saber
One day, just as Touma and Mei are going to present a copy of his book to Ryota when in town for his birthday, the city is suddenly came under attack from a monster originated from the Wonder World, Touma was saved by a red Wonder Ride Book, and determined to save everyone, he obtained the Seiken Swordriver and transforms into Kamen Rider Saber for the first time.
Later, he met Rintaro Shindo, a blue Sword of Logos warrior who came to Touma's Bookstore to ask him to return the Kaenken Rekka, Seiken Swordriver, and his Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book as Rintaro's request was denied by Touma himself but soon ask Touma to come with him to the Sword of Logos Headquarters after Rintaro use his Book Gate Wonder Ride Book to open a portal to the Headquarters. After they arrive at the Headquarters, Touma was greeted by Sophia, the founder of Sword of Logos Organization.
Personality
As a novelist and bookstore owner, Touma has a deep and immense love for books, believing they bring happiness and joy to others. He's easygoing, but has a passionate side and values "promises" above all else.
On a minor note, Touma is shown to be kid-friendly.
He has a catchphrase in which he says during battle I will decide the story's ending! (物語の結末は俺が決める!, Monogatari no ketsumatsu wa ore ga kimeru!).

Brave Dragon (ブレイブドラゴン, Bureibu Doragon) is Saber's dragon-based primary form accessed by using the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book in the Seiken Swordriver.
Saber mainly used his sword for attacks, and does not rely on punches and kicks, therefore his punching power and kicking power are quite low.
Brave Dragon consists of the following parts:
- Saber Helm Brave Dragon (セイバーヘルム ブレイブドラゴン, Seibā Herumu Bureibu Doragon): The head.
- Sword Crown (ソードクラウン, Sōdo Kuraun): The blade on the forehead. It is installed on the top of the head as a proof of being selected by a Seiken. It has the role of adjusting the state of Kamen Rider Saber and the Seiken, and adjusts the power balance between them and cancels transformation in an emergency. It is also a blade with a sharp edge, and can also be used in battle.
- Mid Mask (ミッドマスク, Middo Masuku): The forehead mask. It has the property of enhancing the physical ability of the user, and by exerting the power of the Wonder Ride Book contained in the midshelf of the Seiken Swordriver, it exerts various abilities. It is said to be particularly compatible with animal-based Wonder Ride Books.
- Brave Dragon Mask (ブレイブドラゴンマスク, Bureibu Doragon Masuku): The right side of the helmet. The power of the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book grants the ability to sense evil beings.
- Cross Flame Visor (クロスフレイムバイザー, Kurosu Fureimu Baizā): The eyes. Even in a burning flame, the user can catch the target and never miss it.
- Left Mask (レフトマスク, Refuto Masuku): The left side of the helmet. It has a characteristic that strongly affects the activation of special abilities by the user, and exerts various abilities by putting the power of the Wonder Ride Book contained in the left shelf of the Seiken Swordriver. It is said to be particularly compatible with the story-based Wonder Ride Book.
- Sword Robe (ソードローブ, Sōdo Rōbu): The suit granted by the user of the Seiken "Kaenken Rekka". It is attached at the same time as the awakening of the Seiken, and gives the user the power to fight such as improving sword skills, strengthening physical abilities, and activating special abilities. This characteristic is assigned to the right half of the body, which is based on the God Beast "Brave Dragon", the center of the body, and the left half of the body.
- Brave Dragon Bauld (ブレイブドラゴンボールド, Bureibu Doragon Bōrudo): The right shoulder. It has the power of the God Beast, "Brave Dragon", and uses the courage of the user to bring forth the dragon's mighty power.
- Burn Gaunt (バーンガント, Bān Ganto): The right arm. Bringing the right arm of the “Ride Arm” to red heat gives the power to control the flame freely, enabling the release of the Brave Dragon that has turned into a flame. In addition, it becomes one with the horrible flames of the Seiken "Kaenken Rekka", and doubles the sharpness of the sword skill of the flame attribute.
- Mai Scale (メイスケイル, Meisukeiru): The right half of the suit. It is made of a series of flame-attributed hard scales, preventing any evil attacks. There is only one scale that grows upside down somewhere, and if you touch it, it will awaken the fierce anger of the Brave Dragon.
- Ride Left (ライドレフト, Raido Refuto): The left half of the suit. It has a characteristic that strongly affects the activation of special abilities by the users, and exerts various abilities by putting the power of the Wonder Ride Book contained in the left shelf of the Seiken Swordriver. It is said to be particularly compatible with the story-based Wonder Ride Book.
- Ride Arm (ライドアーム, Raido Āmu): The left arm. The exterior of the armor "Sword Robe" is laminated armor called "Page Armor" (ページアーマー, Pēji Āmā), which is formed by stacking trained plate armor in multiple layers. As a result, it has acquired strong defense and the flexibility to follow various actions.
- Ride Mid (ライドミッド, Raido Middo): The center portion of the suit. It has the property of enhancing the physical ability of a transformer, and by exerting the power of the Wonder Ride Book contained in the midshelf of the Seiken Swordriver, it exerts various abilities. It is said to be particularly compatible with animal-based Wonder Ridebooks.
- Ride Leg (ライドレッグ, Raido Reggu): The legs and feet of the suit. Due to the characteristics of the "Ride Mid" in the central part of the armor "Sword Robe", overall leg strength such as running power, jumping power and kicking power has been greatly enhanced. In addition, when the special move is activated, the destructive power of the kick is greatly increased by putting together a terrible flame.
This form has three finishers:
- Seiken Swordriver finishers:
- Hiryu Shugekiha (火龍蹴撃破[ヒリュウシュウゲキハ], lit. Flame Dragon Kicking Break)
- Dragon Wonder (ドラゴンワンダー, Doragon Wandā): Has two variations.
- Saber taps on the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book, surrounding his body with flames. He then delivers a fire-enhanced punch that launches a fiery dragon construct at the target.
- Saber taps on the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book, surrounding his right fist with flames. He then launches a red mechanical dragon from his arm that homing at the enemy.
- Kaenken Rekka finishers:
- Kaen Juujizan (火炎十字斬[カエンジュウジザン], lit. Flame Cross Slash)[3]: Saber summons a red flaming dragon that circles the target before performing a series of repeated slashing attacks while bouncing off the dragon, rising up towards the sky in the process.

Dragon Jackun (ドラゴンジャッ君, Doragon Jakkun) is Saber's Jack and The Beanstalk-based form, accessed by using the Brave Dragon and Jackun-to-Domamenoki Wonder Ride Book in the Seiken Swordriver.
In this form, Saber's stats are a bit higher than his Brave Dragon form, surpassing them by small margins. It also grants Saber the ability to shoot green bean-like projectiles called Domame Beans. If shot at the ground, the Domame Beans can turn into a giant beanstalk to allow easier access to great heights.
Dragon Jackun consists of the following parts:

- Sword Crown (ソードクラウン, Sōdo Kuraun)
- Mid Mask (ミッドマスク, Middo Masuku)

- Cross Flame Visor (クロスフレイムバイザー, Kurosu Fureimu Baizā)
- Domamenoki Mask (ドマメノキマスク, Domamenoki Masuku): The left side of the helmet. With the power of Jackun-to-Domamenoki Wonder Ride Book, the vine extends to the "Sword Crown" on the top of the head, allowing the user to manipulate the vitality of the Domamenoki.
- Sword Robe (ソードローブ, Sōdo Rōbu)
- Brave Dragon Bauld (ブレイブドラゴンボールド, Bureibu Doragon Bōrudo)
- Burn Gaunt (バーンガント, Bān Ganto)
- Mai Scale (メイスケイル, Meisukeiru)

- Domamenoki Bauld (ドマメノキボールド, Domamenoki Bōrudo): The left shoulder. It has the power of the story "Jackun-to-Domamenoki" and brings a mysterious power to manipulate the vitality of the Domamenoki.
- Entangle Gaunt (インタングルガント, Intanguru Ganto): The left arm. It has the ability to fire the Domame Beans, which has an outer skin that is harder than steel, at high speed like a bullet. In addition, by expanding and contracting the entwined vines and deploying them like a whip or rope, it can be used for various purposes such as catching distant objects and changing direction in the air.
- Ride Mid (ライドミッド, Raido Middo)
- Ride Leg (ライドレッグ, Raido Reggu)
This form has one finisher:
- Seiken Swordriver finishers:
- Hiryu Shugekiha (火龍蹴撃破[ヒリュウシュウゲキハ], lit. Flame Dragon Kicking Break): After taking to the air, Saber binds the enemy in a beanstalk-like vine as he descends to deliver a fire-enhanced kick. Once Saber hits the target, large green book-like constructs and a red fiery construct resembling the Kaenken Rekka are projected.

Behind the scenes
Portrayal
Touma is portrayed by Syuichiro Naito (内藤秀一郎, Naito Shuichiro). As Kamen Rider Saber, his suit actor is Kosuke Asai (浅井 宏輔, Asai Kōsuke)[9].
Rider No.
As the leading rider protagonist of Kamen Rider Saber, Saber is labeled Kamen Rider #37 (仮面ライダー37号, Kamen Raidā Sanjūnanagō) and Reiwa Rider #2 (令和ライダー2号, Reiwa Raidā Nigō).
Etymology
- Touma's name works as a pun of the English word "tome", which is used to refer to notably large and scholarly books.
- As with the naming scheme of all the Saber Riders, Saber is named after the saber, or alternately spelled "sabre", a type of curved blade-style sword utilized by light cavalry armies in the early days of warfare and the Napoleonic periods.
Concept Art
To be added
Notes
- Kamen Rider Saber is the first titular Reiwa Rider to have a dragon motif.
- In particular, he shares this dragon motif with Kamen Rider Ryuki, with both having their respective Rider powers passed down from a previous user.
- Kamen Rider Saber is the first titular Reiwa Rider to have a Driver that also serves as his primary weapon.
- Kamen Rider Saber is also the first titular Rider since Den-O to have his forms based on Fairy Tales.
- Additionally, similar to Momotaros (Sword Form) and Kintaros (Ax Form), Saber is also the first Reiwa Rider to name his finishers.
- Production-wise, Kamen Rider Saber is the first titular Reiwa Rider and the second titular Kamen Rider overall to not officially debut in his predecessor's season via movie or TV series since Kamen Rider Drive, with Touma appearing in Kamen Rider Saber Prologue which was released during the endgame arc of Zero-One.
- The fact that the Sword Crown can be used in battle may be a nod to how the Wisp Horn(on Kamen Rider Ghost’s Damashii forms) could be used as a headbutting weapon.
- While not the first Rider with mix-and-match design elements, Saber stands out as not requiring a gimmick item to materialize each area of his armor.
- Despite no image so far showing all three portions of the armor making use of the Wonder Ride Books' motifs, a hypothetical form using three books would appear like a combination of the orientation from Kamen Rider Double's half-changes, with the section count of Kamen Rider OOO's combos.
- Strangely, a design using three books would also be reminiscent of CycloneJokerXtreme, but with the central part fully taking over the design of the legs, as opposed to the crystal server for Double taking up half the legs' armor.
- Despite no image so far showing all three portions of the armor making use of the Wonder Ride Books' motifs, a hypothetical form using three books would appear like a combination of the orientation from Kamen Rider Double's half-changes, with the section count of Kamen Rider OOO's combos.
- Kamen Rider Saber share minor similar traits with Kamen Rider Agito.
- Both Agito and Saber's default form are themed after some form of Dragon. (Agito Ground Form is a European Dragon & Saber Brave Dragon is an Asian Dragon.)
- Both of them serve as the second Riders of their respective eras, Agito being the second Heisei Rider and Saber being the second Reiwa Rider.
- From the start of the series, Shoichi & Touma were both amnesiacs who were granted their powers from a mysterious individual (OverLord of Light & Previous Saber) during a fateful event before losing all memories of their past upon waking up elsewhere.
- Touma is the first titular Reiwa Kamen Rider to be the successor of their particular Kamen Rider powers.
- He's also the first Kamen Rider since Eiji Hino, the titular protagonist of Kamen Rider OOO, to hold this distinction.
