Kamen Rider Saber (仮面ライダーセイバー聖刃, Kamen Raidā Seibā)[a] is a Japanese tokusatsu drama, the 31st entry of Toei Company's Kamen Rider franchise, and the second series to debut during the Reiwa period. The series premiered on September 6, 2020, joining Mashin Sentai Kiramager, and later, Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger in the Super Hero Time line-up after the finale of Kamen Rider Zero-One before being succeeded by Kamen Rider Revice on September 5, 2021. The series is notable for its use of a fantasy setting, along with its storybook theming.

Premise

The human world collides with a realm of fairy tales called Wonder World due to a conflict over the Almighty Book – a legendary artifact of unparalleled power as a trio of monsters called the Megids mount a failed attempt to claim it and create more of their kind. Two millennia later however, the Dark Swordsman Hayato Fukamiya, aka Kamen Rider Calibur, betrayed his comrades upon learning a horrible truth and was reportedly killed by the Flame Swordsman, Daichi Kamijo, with a girl named Luna being an apparent causality of their fight. Daichi gave his Wonder Ride Book to a boy named Touma Kamiyama before leaving his sword behind.

Becoming a novelist and bookstore owner a further fifteen years later, Touma's attempt to stop a Megid attack causes him to inherit Kamijo's title as Kamen Rider Saber and he resolves to end the conflict after being recruited by the Water Swordsman, Rintaro Shindo, of an organization of swordsmen called the Sword of Logos. Among the other swordsmen Touma meets while recovering both his memories and lost Wonder Ride Books is his childhood friend, Kento Fukamiya, who wishes to understand his father's actions after Calibur resurfaces as the Megids' ally.

Production

The Kamen Rider Saber trademark was registered by Toei on May 29, 2020.[1]

On 29 July 2020, Kamen Rider Saber was officially announced during a press conference alongside its cast, during which time it was announced that the show is planned to feature at least 10 Riders over the course of the series. Along with the eponymous character, five other confirmed Riders at the time were Blades, Espada, Buster, Kenzan, and Calibur. Following the series premiere, additional Riders Slash, Falchion, Saikou, Sabela, Durandal, Solomon, and Storious eventually join the cast.

The opening theme song is performed by the band Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra collaborating with the band Alexandros' Yoohei Kawakami, who provides the vocals.[2] Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra also performs the ending theme song, and Kinichi Motegi, the band's drummer, provides the vocals.[2]
