[edit] Trivia
- "Gai" means "Rhinoceros" in Japanese.
- Gai is a purely melee-range fighter who relies on brute strength to win, similar to Kamen Rider Scissors and Kamen Rider Tiger. Gai used his intellect more often than anything else, his plans usually involving his Confine Advent card to cancel any weapons from the other Riders and summoning his contract monster Metalgelas to fight alongside him. His Final Vent "Heavy Pressure" orders Metalgelas to ram at an opponnent at top speed while Gai is positioned like a horn, skewering his opponent.
- His contracted montser, the Metalgelas, derives it's name from the Greek river god Gelas. Although many depictions of Gelas are that of a bull-horned man, some contexts refer to is as "head of horns". Fitting for a rhinocerous-type monster.
- He is a college student extremely well-versed in computers.
- Extremely young and arrogant, often toys with others lives for nothing more than a good laugh.
- His prize was simply to be the winner of the Rider war, which to him was all a game.
- Died in a battle against Kamen Rider Ouja, his armor exploded after being hit with Ouja's Final Advent. In the 13 Riders TV Special, he was consumed by the mirror monster, Death Spider.
