[edit] Here I Come!

1 "Here I Come!" 俺、参上! "Ore, Sanjō!" January 28, 2007
The story starts with Ryotaro Nogami on his bike lodged in the top branches of a tree through a strange string of bad luck. After being let down, he rides his bike into the city, runs over broken glass, and crashes next to a group of young men lead by Tetsuo. After being beat up, Ryotaro discovers an unusual pass. Just as he picks it up and enters a building, the landscape abruptly changes into a valley where he finds a train and a woman on it who gives him a cup of coffee. Ryotaro is later confronted by a young woman on the train, who says that she lost the pass that Ryotaro found. He leaves, finding Tetsuo's gang, and is then possessed by a strange force and beats up the gang members until he manages to prevent the possessing force from going too far. Ryotaro then finds Tetsuo and the girl on the train, and it is revealed that Tetsuo is also being possessed by a monster called an Imagin. The Bat Imagin attacks Ryotaro, until the girl tells him to use the pass to become Kamen Rider Den-O, as Ryotaro is what is known as a "Singularity Point." Ryotaro, in Plat Form, is losing when the Imagin that had possessed him tells him to switch places, transforming into Den-O Sword Form. Sword Form easily beats Bat Imagin, and then Ryotaro boards the Train of Time, the Den-Liner.[1]

[edit] Ride on Time

2 "Ride on Time" ライド・オン・タイム "Raido On Taimu" February 4, 2007
After boarding the Den-Liner, the girl introduces herself as Hana, and the woman who gave him coffee introduces herself as Naomi. The Imagin that had possessed him also shows his form, taking the form of a red oni which Ryotaro believes is from the story of Momotarō, eventually naming the Imagin "Momotaros". Ryotaro confronts Tetsuo's gang, and they reveal to him that Tetsuo is looking for his jingle bell key holder, which Hana had mistakenly picked up when she first was looking for the Rider Pass. Ryotaro returns the key holder to Tetsuo, and inadvertently completes the contract the Bat Imagin made with the boy, allowing the Imagin to travel to the past and alter the course of time. The date is December 24, 2004, the night that Tetsuo's mother died and he was not there by her side. Ryotaro travels to the past as Kamen Rider Den-O Sword Form and destroys the Bat Imagin, but the Imagin goes berserk and became Gigandeath Heaven, a giant monster. Den-O then uses the Den-Liner Gouka and its various weapons to destroy the Gigandeath. After the Gigandeath is destroyed, Ryotaro decides to make a slight change: using the Den-Liner to take Tetsuo to be with his mother at her final moments. [2]

In a twist of bad luck, Ryotaro is knocked out by the actions of a man named Yū Yamagoshi who is being chased by Yakuza to whom he owes money. Momotaros takes control of the unconscious boy's body, and impresses Yamagoshi with his power. Thanks to Momotaros, Ryotaro ends up being pursued by the police only to be saved by Hana. Yamagoshi, after escaping himself, comes across the Chameleon Imagin and makes a wish for an amount of money "to die for." Momotaros is then ordered by Hana not to use Ryotaro's body as the Imagin wishes, even though he and Yamagoshi plan to assault the Yakuza, again, in order to get more money from them. Before Momotaros can assist Yamagoshi, Hana arrives to knock some sense into the Imagin, and the Chameleon Imagin appeared. Den-O Sword Form fights with the Imagin, who flees. Before Momotaros can do anything else, Ryotaro wakes up, kicks Momotaros back onto the Den-Liner, and finds himself surrounded by Yamagoshi and the Yakuza.[3]

Ryotaro, furious that Momotaros had involved him in a robbery, decides to stop asking for the Imagin's help in battles. Later, the Chameleon Imagin shows up at Yamagoshi's apartment, leaving the young man large amounts of money that the Imagin had stole on his own. This completes the contract Yamagoshi had made with the Imagin, allowing him to travel back in time to the day that Yamagoshi had given up his chances to have a career in music and helped a young girl, instead. When Ryotaro travels to the past to battle the Chameleon Imagin, he soon discovers that he cannot defeat Chameleon Imagin. He realizes that he needs Momotaros' assistance, but only if Momotaros apologizes for his actions in endangering him.

Ryotaro soon finds himself involved in a truck accident, losing consciousness, and being possessed by another Imagin, a blue turtle-like Imagin who is later named Urataros, after Urashima Tarō. Momotaros senses this and tried to get Urataros out, yet at the same time Urataros' personality takes over and becomes the nursing staff's idol at the hospital, easily wooing any woman that he confronts. As Momotaros and Urataros use Ryotaro's body as a battlefield, another Imagin, the Crust Imagin, opens a contract with a young soccer player named Daiki Saitō. The Imagin begins to attack all of Daiki's former teammates, hospitalizing them as well. Momotaros finally retakes control of Ryotaro's body and attempts to defeat the Crust Imagin, but due to the strain that he and Urataros place on Ryotaro's body, Den-O is unable to destroy the Crust Imagin.[5]

The Crust Imagin continues to attack Daiki's former teammates, until he reveals that he was the one initiated the contract. When the contract is completed, the Crust Imagin travels to the date in the past when Daiki had lost a soccer game, alienating him from his teammates. When the Den-Liner travels back to this date, the Owner of the Den-Liner confronts Ryotaro asking him if he wants to extend his Rider Pass to include Urataros. To everyone's shock and Momotaros's distress, Ryotaro agrees, believing that Urataros has a good heart despite his lies. When Den-O Sword Form fights the Crust Imagin, he is dragged into the water and so Ryotaro transforms into Den-O Rod Form. The Crust Imagin is defeated by a Solid Attack and a DenRider Kick, but goes berserk and becomes Gigandeath Hades. Rod Form then uses his section of the Den-Liner, Isurugi, to defeat the giant monster.[6]

He finds Ryotaro's wallet and goes to return it to the Milk Dipper so that he can fight the young man, but is easily distracted and calmed down by Ryotaro's sister Airi. Meanwhile, people associated with anything that plays Vivaldi's The Four Seasons' First Concerto, "Spring", are attacked by the Crow Imagin, who has made a contract with Yumi. After a short battle with the Imagin as Den-O Sword Form, Ryotaro returns home and is confronted by Tomoya, who threatens something if Ryotaro has not retrieved Yumi.

After Tomoya orders Ryotaro to find Yumi, she tells Ryotaro that she refuses to come see her ex-fiance after their breakup half a year ago. This discussion leads Ryotaro to realize that Yumi's wish to the Crow Imagin is to actually forget her boyfriend rather than the music the necklace he gave her played. Suddenly, the Crow Imagin appears and destroys the necklace she had been given by Tomoya that played The Four Seasons' First Concerto out of freewill to finish the contract between the two of them. The Crow Imagin goes back in time to the day of Tomoya and Yumi's wedding after which she left him at the altar.

Their search leads them to the dojo of Shinji Kikuchi, the winner of last year's tournament. Ryotaro later faces Masaru Honjō, the host of the Imagin who was able to defeat him earlier, with a match between Den-O and the gold Imagin.

Ryotaro discovers that Kikuchi is the contractor for Rhino Imagin, who completes his contract after confronting Honjō. Rhino Imagin travels back to the date of the karate tournament when Kikuchi won by default because Honjō suffered from a heart attack before the match could commence. In the midst of the fight, the gold Imagin arrives to save Honjō and Kikuchi at the cost of his life. To save the Imagin's life, Ryotaro allows him into his body. Thus, he earns a new form, Den-O Ax Form, to defeat the Rhino Imagin and then his Gigandeath form, Gigandeath Hell, with Rekkō.

After seeing Ryotaro's strength while possessed by Kintaros, Kasumi contracts him as a body guard, in hopes to prevented any future ruins in her fashion show of the Parisian collection. Even though he is not the one leaving her baby's breath, Kintaros vowed to protect Kasumi while helping her reconcile with her father. Soon after that, the culprit of the attacks, the Ivy Imagin, arrives. Though Momotaros initially battles as Sword Form, Kintaros, after misinterpreting a word, removes him to fight the Ivy Imagin, whom he lets escape. During all of this, Hana finds the Ivy Imagin's contract holder, who is none other than Kensaku Kobayashi, Kasumi's father.[11]

[edit] Run Taros!

12 "Run Taros!" 走れタロス! "Hashire Tarosu!" April 15, 2007
Kintaros reveals that his reason for letting the Ivy Imagin escape is to find out what Kensaku had wished for. The next day, the Ivy Imagin once again attacks Kasumi while she is heading to the airport to model for the Paris Collection. Once the Ivy Imagin stops attacking, Kintaros throws the empty van that Kasumi and her agent were riding in into the river so she will be able to see her father. However, this fulfills the Ivy Imagin's contract with Kensaku, allowing him to go back in time to the day that Kensaku kicked Kasumi out of the house. When Kintaros tries to make the father and daughter make up in the past prior to actually fighting the Ivy Imagin, he endangers the flow of time as a result and is to be banished off the Den-Liner. However, Kintaros' act of informing Kasumi of her father's true feelings alter time so that Kasumi and Kensaku are able to reconcile prior to Kasumi's meeting with Ryotaro and Kensaku's meeting with the Imagin. This time paradox negates Kintaros' banishment from the Den-Liner, for the cause of the banishment never existed.[12]

As the Owl Imagin attempts to force everyone out of the park, it runs into Hana, who is ultimately saved by Ryotaro. However, Ryotaro is still possessed by the unknown Imagin, and is able to transform into Den-O Gun Form. Gun Form's reckless battle style causes severe damage to the surroundings, but is able to drive the Owl Imagin away nonetheless. Before the Imagin possessing Ryotaro leaves, he tells Hana and the other Imagin that his goal is simply to defeat Ryotaro. In the process, he is able to drive Momotaros, Urataros, and Kintaros back into the Den-Liner. Despite the Imagin's attempt to attack Hana for getting in his way, Ryotaro is able to regain control of his body before the Imagin can hurt her.[13]

Meanwhile, Hana tries to find the Owl Imagin and its contract holder, as the Owl Imagin continues to make it so no human may enter the park. It is not until Ryutaros is distracted by some stray animals that allows for Momotaros to regain control of Ryotaro in order to go back in time to February 20, 1997, and prevent the Owl Imagin from destroying the past. However, in the middle of the fight, Ryutaros repossesses Ryotaro and Gun Form is the one to finish off the Owl Imagin.

After much confusion, Hana and Ryotaro both end up in the bathhouse after a failed attack on the Whale Imagin. When Airi enters and begins to make lunch for the group, the SWAT team arrives. However, it is revealed that the entire situation provides no threat as the gun is fake. The Whale Imagin appears again and Urataros fights it, only letting it escape because of less-than-favorable fishing conditions. Hakamada discovers that the targets have been his former co-workers, and Ryotaro investigates Takonoko Heavy Industries.

Ryotaro then returns to the bathhouse and tells Hakamada that he was unable to set things straight with the company president. When Ryutaros feels that Airi is in trouble, he takes over Ryotaro and exits the bathhouse and disseminates the police siege with his dancing. When Ryotaro tries to discuss things with Higuchi, again, Ryutaros takes control, again, and tries to kill the president. However, Momotaros is able to partially take control of Ryotaro and text message Airi to tell him to stop, as Ryutaros will only listen to Airi. Finally, Ryotaro is able to discuss things with the president, and they are able to find the Whale Imagin just before it attacks its final target and complete the contract. Ryotaro then travels back to March 31, 2004, the day that Higuchi tossed the company's money while drunk. Momotaros, as Den-O Sword Form, easily destroys the Whale Imagin before it can do much damage.

While Airi left Ryotaro to look after the Milk Dipper, Momotaros, Urataros, and Kintaros seek to show which one of them is more useful by trying to have him serve coffee to Miura and Ozaki. While on the Den-Liner, Ryutaros reveals that an Imagin had made a contract with Yuka. The Wolf Imagin had been vaporizing high school girls and taking their belongings to Yuka to complete its contract with her so she can relive her high school days. When Hana and Ryotaro find her, the Wolf Imagin travels back to April 7, 2004, the day that Yuka was transferred to the school in England. In the middle of the fight, Ryotaro is knocked into the mysterious man in the trenchcoat, and the man drops his pocket watch.

After returning to the Den-Liner, Ryotaro explains his reasons: the mysterious man who appeared in the past is actually Yuto Sakurai who had disappeared three years ago, making Airi lose her memories of him. While everyone lets Ryotaro rest, the Wolf Imagin decides to destroy everything and everyone out of frustration on April 8, 2004. Back on the Den-Liner, Kintaros asks Ryotaro to give him a wish to grant so he can leave Ryotaro to relieve the physical strain on Ryotaro's body, with Momotaros and Urataros having the same notion themselves. Ryutaros simply reveals that Ryotaro had actually been training too hard. At first, Momotaros is reluctant to fight because Ryotaro was being sneaky, and only became Sword Form after he promised to be honest. Back in the present, someone tells Ryotaro to give up protecting time and searching for Yuto. He reveals a Rider Ticket and introduces himself as Yuto Sakurai.[18]

Nonetheless, Ryotaro attempts to convince the Owner to let him enter the past. Meanwhile, a man named Kōhei Amano formed a contract with the Jelly Imagin to dig up a time capsule. Hana and Ryotaro both meet Yuto at Airi's shop, and an eventual confrontation between Momotaros and Deneb occurs, both possessing their respective hosts. However, Deneb simply presents a peace offering, and so Yuto expels him from his body. Surprisingly, Deneb is able to take a physical form, implying that Yuto has a full contract with Deneb. Elsewhere, the Jelly Imagin attempts to fulfill his contract by forcing his contractor to do the work instead. Ryotaro attempts to fight the Jelly Imagin, but it eventually manages to escape. He has another encounter with Yuto who tells him to stop interfering with time just to save people. As he reveals himself to be another Kamen Rider, he calls upon the Zero-Liner, leaving Ryotaro behind, once again confused. [19]

[edit] Let Me Say This to Start

20 "Let Me Say This to Start" 最初に言っておく "Saisho ni Itte Oku" June 10, 2007
Yuto makes his appearance on the Den-Liner, and the Owner mentions that the Zero-Liner is another train that can travel through time and Sakurai may be its Kamen Rider, but he believes the Zero-Liner had been destroyed. Yuto once again tells Ryotaro not to bother going back in time, and then he leaves, only after Deneb has given the other passengers of the Den-Liner some of his candies. Yuto goes off to find the Jelly Imagin's contractor, Kōhei Amano, to ask him about the contract, and he reveals that he is seeking for a time capsule that had been buried by his late girlfriend Haruka one year ago which holds her final memento to him. Amano also reveals that Ryotaro had been at the hospital before Yuto when the Jelly Imagin breaks the hospital room's window to take his contractor to the location of another time capsule. After Amano is forced to dig it up, the Jelly Imagin believes that his contract is completed, and he goes back in time to March 12, 2006, when the time capsule was first buried, with Ryotaro as Den-O in tow. When Den-O arrives, he finds Amano and Haruko passed out, and Ryotaro makes note of the tree's location. After a losing fight with the Jelly Imagin, Yuto arrives and transforms into Kamen Rider Zeronos. He fights the Jelly Imagin as Altair Form, and uses Deneb to slow the Jelly Imagin down until Deneb can no longer hold on. Yuto chastises his Imagin, and together they become Vega Form and destroy the Jelly Imagin. After that, Ryotaro tells Yuto that he saw the other Yuto Sakurai and that he will not stop looking for him, despite Yuto criticizing Ryotaro's imperfections. In the present, Ryotaro and Hana unearth Kōhei Amano's time capsule and return it to him.[20]

[edit] Fighting Style

21 "Fighting Style" ケンカのリュウ儀 "Kenka no Ryūgi" June 24, 2007
As Ryotaro saw the actual Yuto Sakurai in the past, he becomes suspicious of the one that is Zeronos. After telling the Owner of the battle in 2006, he states that he believes that Yuto may be the Sakurai Ryotaro knows, from 10 years in the past. Hana, herself, wishes to know more about how the Zero-Liner can exist when its timeline was destroyed, much like her own timeline was. Meanwhile, Sakurai injures his hand and goes into the Tokyo of 2007 and Deneb possesses him to assist a young man named Tanaka sell goods for the Tanabata Festival. After warning Deneb not to do things on his own, he leaves the Imagin to take care of things, by selling the items while in a tiger costume. In Tanaka's dream-like state, he opens a contract with the Tortoice [sic] Imagin to get even with his employer. At the Milk Dipper, Ozaki and Issē fight over putting tags on the Tanabata Tree while Airi serves coffee to Yuto, who introduces himself to her. On the Den-Liner, Ryutaros has been drawing, and attacks anyone who steps on any of the drawings, one of which depicts Den-O Gun Form shooting Zeronos, to Urataros' dismay. When Kintaros gives Ryutaros the idea to show his strength to impress Airi, he possesses Ryotaro, who had been in the Milk Dipper with Hana, at the time. Once Yuto leaves, Ryutaros takes control and follows, cornering him with his dancers. As Ryutaros pursues Yuto, the Tortoice Imagin and its rabbit half attack Tanaka's employer to complete the contract. Hana tells Yuto to transform and that Ryotaro cannot control Ryutaros, but he reveals that the times he can transform into Zeronos is limited. He eventually gives in and fights Den-O Gun Form while Deneb runs to his partner's aid. Both Zeronos Altair Form and Den-O Gun Form are equally matched, as they rush at each other on their respective motorcycles.[21]

[edit] An Unspeakable Future

22 "An Unspeakable Future" ハナせない未来 "Hanasenai Mirai" July 1, 2007
The fight between Den-O and Zeronos continues as they fire shot for shot, until Hana, once, again, tries to intervene. She ends up injured before Ryotaro was finally able to stop Ryutaros. Hana tries to confront Yuto about the Zero-Liner existing after her time was destroyed, but Yuto will only answer if Hana takes Deneb's place to help Tanaka, whom Hana and Ryotaro find injured after the Tortoice Imagin got mad at him for forgetting the wish. Hana sends Ryotaro to watch him as she keeps watch over the Tanabata despite being injured herself. Hana is unable to sell any candy due to her demeanor, but Naomi shows up along with Ryotaro to help her sell the Tanabata Sets while Kintaros and Urataros keep watch over the contract holder by keeping a nearly solid sand form within animal costumes while he is in the hospital with his irate boss. It is then that Tanaka remembers his wish, allowing the Tortoice Imagin to travel back in time. Urataros uses a Rider Ticket to record the past date and joins Ryotaro as he transforms into Den-O Rod Form, traveling back to November 29, 2006. Rod Form confronts the Imagin only to find that it can split and double team him. Zeronos arrives to even the odds, and the two Imagin halves are quickly defeated, only to reform into Gigandeaths Heaven and Hell. While the Den-Liner Isurugi defeats Gigandeath Heaven, Gigandeath Hell attempts to retreat only to face the Zero-Liner and be destroyed. Back on the Den-Liner, Yuto tells Hana that he knows nothing about the other timeline, nor has he ever met with the owner of the Zero-Liner. However, he does tell her that the Zero-Liner had disappeared, but it returned, giving her hope that her timeline may return as well.[22]

[edit] Enter the Prince, Kneel Down to Him!

23 "Enter the Prince, Kneel Down to Him!" 王子降臨、頭が高い! "Ōji Kōrin, Zu ga Takai!" July 8, 2007
On the Den-Liner, the Owner mentions that some of the other passengers are complaining of animal sounds and food disappearing. When he suggests that the noise may be Kintaros' snoring, Kintaros awakes and says he does not snore, but he feels a strange sensation and finds a small puppy has peed on his foot. The Den-Liner crew chase the puppy, and they are led to what is supposed to be an empty train car filled with puppies, kittens, and a Swan Imagin holding a human baby. Calling himself Sieg, the Imagin tells of how he came to form a contract to the baby, possessing Ryotaro with the Taros Imagin unable to get him out. Sieg reveals he intended to make a contract with a wealthy young woman half a year ago, but it turned out that she was pregnant and possessed her unborn child with no memory. When Sieg finally got his physical form, he had no memory of the contract's nature, and took his "brother" out of a truck when Ryutaros found him and brought him onto the Den-Liner. Sieg, acting like a prince, orders the others to aid him in finding his "mother." When Momotaros refuses with intent to beat him, Sieg shrinks him, Urataros, and Kintaros to around four inches in height and leaves with Hana. Meanwhile, Akio Matsuda, who had kidnapped the baby, Yūsuke, opens a contract with the Scorpion Imagin to find the mother, while Yuto and Deneb watch from a distance. With some unexpected assistance from Ozaki, Hana discovers the location of the mother, Shiori, at which Yuto and Deneb have followed the Scorpion Imagin. They soon spot S-Ryotaro approaching the building as Sieg had remembered everything, and they are approached by the police who believe that he is the kidnapper. When the Scorpion Imagin attacks the Shori, Sieg leaves, and Ryotaro goes to save the mother as Den-O, only for the Scorpion Imagin to escape after nearly killing them both. Ryotaro assures Shiori that Yūsuke is safe, and she passes out, just as the police arrive to take Ryotaro into custody. [23]

[edit] The Prince's Goodbye Lullaby

After being arrested by the police, Ryotaro is questioned on his involvement with the kidnapping of baby Yūsuke Takayama. During the interrogation, Momotaros, Urataros, and Kintaros attempt to help him, as he has no knowledge of the event. On the Den-Liner, Hana and Yuto try to understand what is going on, and Hana tries to talk some sense into Sieg about what he has done to Ryotaro. Hana tells him that a master has to take care of his servants, and with a slap, Sieg develops new respect for Hana and begins calling her Princess. Sieg manages to speak through Yūsuke to convince Shiori Takayama to acquit Ryotaro. Ryotaro is then brought to the Takayama mansion to be thanked, with Sieg possessing him with intent to live the good life forever. However, because he opened a contract with someone with very little memory like baby Yūsuke, Sieg begins to dissolve away. He goes to say goodbye to Yūsuke, but he is interrupted by the Scorpion Imagin's second attempt to bring Shiori to his contractor. Before Yuto can intervene, S-Ryotaro transforms into Kamen Rider Den-O Wing Form, managing to knock the Scorpion Imagin down. However, Sieg's dwindling strength allows the Scorpion to escape with Shiori. Sieg asks Ryotaro to save his mother, as he follows the Scorpion Imagin back in time to February 22, 2002, the day that Akio Masuda was fired by the Takayama family. Den-O fights the Scorpion Imagin as Rod Form and then Ax Form, and defeats him with a Dynamic Chop. Back on the Den-Liner, Sieg continues to waste away until Ryotaro returns and shows the Owner a Rider Ticket bearing Sieg's image and the date June 1, 1997, that he got after using a Rider Ticket on Shiori. In reality, Sieg had already fulfilled a contract with the mother, before forging his contract with Yūsuke. Thanks to this, the Den-Liner arrives on the day of Shiori's wedding, and Sieg leaves the Den-Liner to live happily in the past.[24]

Ryutaros, however, starts to get a sinking feeling as he and everyone notice that he, Urataros, and Kintaros are starting to dissolve. Ryotaro comes upon the Bloodsucker Imagin attacking people that have the stolen jewelry. Ryotaro assumes Ax Form, but he is unable to maintain it in the fight with Urataros vainly attempting to jump in. Momotaros managed to get in and nearly defeats the Bloodsucker Imagin, until he is knocked into the water. Once Ryotaro returns to the Den-Liner, the Owner reveals that Urataros, Kintaros, and Ryutaros are fading away due to the fact that Ryotaro only remembers the Climax Scene as Sword Form, thus why Momotaros is solely unaffected. Furthermore, there is no way to stop the deterioration like with Sieg. The three Tarōs seem to accept their fate, as a heart-broken Ryotaro runs off of the Den-Liner. At the Milk Dipper, Yuto is being served coffee until a disguised Deneb reveals the situation to him. Hana tries to find Ryotaro, and succeeds, although he is trying to make his body stronger for the Imagin to save them. He remembers the good times he had with them, until he suddenly hears their final words in his mind as they disappeared. When he returns to the Den-Liner, only Momotaros is left. Ryotaro begins trailing sand which the Owner states as the remains of Urataros and the others. Taking the Owner's advice, Ryotaro picks up some of the sand, reacting to his wish for all of them to be together and assuming the form of a cellphone, the K-Taros, as Ryotaro's way to stay in touch. Momotaros chalks it up to Ryotaro's lack of sense, to which a sadden Ryotaro simply agrees. Elsewhere, the Bloodsucker Imagin completed its contract and travels to May 20, 2000, attacking people until an upset Ryotaro arrives and begins to fight as Den-O Sword Form. However, the Bloodsucker Imagin is too strong for Sword Form to handle by himself. In the fight, Momotaros went berserk until the red cellphone starts ringing, and Urataros is on the other end. He tells Momotaros to put in the code "3-6-9-#", which makes the other Imagin speak from the phone before Den-O assumes Climax Form just as Yuto arrives. Den-O finishes off the Imagin with his Boisterous Kick attack. Later the group celebrates the return of Urataros and the others until Hana punches Momotaros out of the Den-Liner.[28]

Ryotaro and Yuto arrive only to see the Imagin kill the younger Yuto by destroying the field trip van. As a result, Yuto fades away before Ryotaro's eyes. Though she gloats, Ryotaro transforms to Liner Form and destroys the female Snail Imagin. Though Ryotaro expected Yuto to reappear as everything she obliterated was restored, only to realize he has no memory of Yuto at that time and the Zeronos Cards ensure no one at that time remembers Yuto, either. When Ryotaro returns to the present, he finds the Milk Dipper completely changed as in this time line, Airi and Sakurai had never met.[39]

Succeeding in his machinations, Kai erases Yuto from the future time line, causing the Milk Dipper to become a girls' hang out with Sakurai gone as well. Furthermore, as only Kohana and the Owner remember Yuto, too, Deneb is now contracted to Ryotaro and part of the Den-Liner crew. Later, while Ryotaro and Kohana ponder the Owner's words about memory's effects on people and the nature of Singularity Points, the girl gets taken by the male Snail Imagin. Ax Form attempts to fight until Kai reveals himself with the Gecko and Newt Imagin as backup. Kai reveals to Ryotaro that Sakurai is the true target of the Imagin, with his removal from existence allowing the future Kai came from to be realized. Though Ryotaro understood that Yuto's absence had a positive effect on the present, he could not accept it if it meant that Yuto sacrificed himself in vain. Meeting Kai again, Ryotaro tells him that he figured the future is not truly decided, causing everything to return to normal. Annoyed, Kai summons his Imagin to kill Ryotaro and Kohana. But Yuto arrived at the last second, due to the Zeronos' past actions negating the female Snail Imagin's actions in the past. Seeing no chance, Kai sent the male Snail Imagin back into time while having the other two Imagin remain to fight. While Zeronos goes back in time after the Snail Imagin, Den-O deals with the two Imagin before assuming Climax Form to defeat them. At February 1, 1999, the Snail Imagin attempts to kill Sakurai when Zeronos arrives to fight. At the last second, Zeronos uses the unusual card with a red Z that he received from his future self to assume Zero Form. Though he destroyed the Snail Imagin, Yuto loses a portion of his own memories related to Airi, who also forgot about meeting the younger Yuto as well.[40]

While having Ryotaro help her go shopping, Airi's purse is stolen. Yuto stops the mugger in a spectacle, with Ryotaro shocked to hear that Yuto and Airi appear to be meeting for the first time. He follows Yuto to learn that the red Zeronos cards erase people's memories of Yuto himself and though his negation is the same as Kai's goal, Yuto justifies it to ensure the future. Meanwhile, Kai finds an ideal pawn in a girl named Shōko sending an Imagin to form a contract with her. That night, Deneb attempts to ensure Yuto will be remembered by possessing him when he is asleep. From there, D-Yuto begins to deliver his candy throughout the city at night to make friends until he finds Shōko sleeping on a park bench. D-Yuto's profound act of kindness by giving his coat to her results in Shōko falling in love with Yuto, giving the Oct Imagin a desire to work with. Meanwhile, while practicing to counter, the Owner tells Ryotaro that the Station Master will arrive and may reveal the truth behind Sakurai. The next day, Shōko arrives to await Yuto at the park as D-Yuto promised. However, Yuto learns of Deneb's deeds and is about to beat answers out of him when the Oct Imagin abducts him. Deneb attempts to save Yuto, but is hesitant when the Imagin uses Yuto as a shield. But Den-O Sword Form arrives and fights the Imagin, who turns the DenBird against him, which keeps Den-O from landing the deathblow before his bike bursts into flames. While Ryotaro and Yuto are perplexed by the Imagin's contract, with Deneb knowing why, Shōko is saddened by Yuto not coming.[41]

[edit] Memory Update

42 "Memory Update" 想い出アップデート "Omoide Appudēto" November 25, 2007
The Oct Imagin's attack leaves Yuto unconscious and Shōko heartbroken about not meeting Yuto, who is wounded in the fight. Deneb reveals that he is the reason for the Oct Imagin attacking Yuto, who regains conscious and has to be restrained by the Den-Liner gang to keep him from killing Deneb for risking innocents in spite of his intentions. Deneb takes Ryotaro to the park to find Shōko, though Deneb asks if Urataros can handle it as a favor. With that, U-Ryotaro resolves the matter, though she preferred to return the coat to Yuto personally. Meanwhile, Kai psychically tells the Oct Imagin to complete his contract first before killing Yuto. The next day, D-Yuto retrieves the coat, but soon spends time with Shōko at the city zoo with Ryotaro following them until the Oct Imagin resumes his attack. Den-O Rod Form attempts to take out the Imagin until a severed tentacle possesses a nearby truck and attempts to run him over. The Oct Imagin manages to make his way to Yuto and Shōko, forcing Yuto to assume Zeronos Zero Form to travel to November 15, 2006. Once there, Zero Form manages to keep the Imagin from killing Sakurai. Zeronos holds his own until a tentacle possesses the ZeroGasher and attacks him. The Imagin then attempts to choke out Zeronos until Den-O Liner Form arrives and the two combine their attacks to destroy the Oct Imagin. However, a piece of the Oct Imagin's tentacle enters AuraLiner, bringing it life as it enters the time-railway and becomes a hydra monster. Both the Den-Liner and the Zero-Liner are overwhelmed by it until the King-Liner arrives and all the trains combine their firepower to destroy it. Though Shōko loses her memory of Yuto, Ryotaro assures him that Airi will remember him based on what the Owner told him. By the time Ryotaro returns to the Den-Liner, he meets the Station Master who gives him something very important to provide explanations behind the Junction Point.[42]

However, while training Ryotaro, Momotaros senses the Armadillo Imagin as he fulfilled his contract. By the time M-Ryotaro arrives, the Imagin retreats into June 25, 2005. M-Ryotaro was about to chase after the Armadillo Imagin when Kai and the Albinoleo Imagin arrive. Kai then reveals the result of Den-O's impact is erasing all Imagin by giving Ryotaro an ominous revelation: the "day he and the Tarōs will part ways" draws near. Horrified and confused by this, Ryotaro demanded an explanation from the Tarōs, with Momotaros changing the subject with the current crisis. Ryotaro arrives to confront the Armadillo Imagin, but refuses to use the DenKamen Sword and attempt to restrain the Imagin in vain. Zeronos Zero Form attempts to aid Ryotaro, but Ryotaro's reluctance to kill places both Riders at a disadvantage until the Den-Liner saved them. However, the incident drives a wedge between a disgusted Momotaros and a vexed Ryotaro, who decides to end his contract with the Tarōs, wishing them to leave him alone. But as the Armadillo Imagin stowed on the Den-Liner, Kai questions why Yuto protected Ryotaro instead of Sakurai.[43]

Back at the Time Station, Urataros and Kintaros see the Armadillo Imagin as he's about to attack, holding him off as Ryutaros arrives to back them up. Ryotaro is on his way when Momotaros halts him, forcing Ryotaro to fight him to prove he has what it takes to fight on his own. But Ryotaro admits that he is afraid of losing the Tarōs, but knows he must fight to protect time. Understanding Ryotaro now, Momotaros apologizes for not being honest about the recent events, revealing that he wants to protect the present as well along with the other Tarōs. With that, the two hurry to the others' aid, with the Den-O team back together. Going through each default form, Den-O overwhelms the Armadillo Imagin until assuming Climax Form to finish the fight. Soon after, on the Den-Liner, Naomi set up a meal Kohana made to celebrate the Tarōs staying with the team as Owner to Ryotaro reveals the final battle is about to to begin.
