Kotaro NogamiEdit

Kotaro Nogami (野上 幸太郎, Nogami Kōtarō^?, portrayed by Dori Sakurada) is introduced as the grandson of Ryotaro Nogami (and is consequently Hana's second cousin and Airi's second nephew) and is the newest Singularity Point who can become a Kamen Rider. Originally impressed by Owner's stories of his grandfather's time as Den-O, Kotaro eventually entered a contract with the Imagin Neotaros (ネオタロス, Neotarosu^?). Because the time stream had been endangered, he was called by the past's Owner to fight the new threat, picking up the slack from his grandfather whom he has a grudge against for both naming him and inheriting his bad luck. To further distance himself from Ryotaro, Kotaro renamed his Imagin partner Teddy. However, Kotaro regains respect for his grandfather as they restore the time stream.

Imagin Possessions Of Kotaro In Rider Form (New Den-O) & Personal FormEdit

• When possessed by Momotaros, Momo is in Kotaro's body. His hair spikes up slightly with a single red streak and he gains more muscular definition and the physical strength to go with it.

• When possessed by Urataros, Ura is in Kotaro's body with the right words to woo women and convince almost anybody. His hair is straight and calm and has a single blue streak going through it. He also wears a pair of black rimmed eyeglasses.

• When possessed by Kintaros, Kin is in Kotaro's body. His hair grows such that he has a ponytail with a golden yellow streak through it. However, his increased strength often results in self-injury due to Kintaros' clumsiness.

• When possessed by Ryutaros, Ryuu is in Kotaro's body, incorporating dancing into everything he does. He grows one long purple and black streak of hair and is always seen wearing a brown cap.

Imagin PossessionsEdit

Kamen Rider Battride WarsEdit

Kamen Rider New Den-O appears as an Movie Rider in the video game Kamen Rider Battride Wars.

FormsEdit

Like the other Riders in Kamen Rider Den-O, New Den-O has access to multiple forms. The first is seen in Saraba Kamen Rider Den-O: Final Countdown, and his second is first seen in Cho Kamen Rider Den-O & Decade NEO Generations: The Onigashima Battleship. However unlike the original Den-O, when Kotaro is possessed by any of the Tarōs, he does not change form; the Imagin instead becomes a weapon based on their abilities. But if possessed by Deneb, New Den-O will automatically assume his own version of Vega Form.

EquipmentEdit

Den-O BeltEdit

The New Den-O Belt (NEWデンオウベルト, Nyū Den'ō Beruto^?) is Kamen Rider New Den-O's transformation belt that is actually the same Den-O Belt in aged looks. It is affixed with a device known as the SetTouch (セタッチ, Setacchi^?) in the Terminal Buckle (ターミナルバックル, Tāminaru Bakkuru^?), which can read a Rider Pass (ライダーパス, Raidā Pasu^?) and the Imagin contained on it. When the Rider Pass is swiped across the SetTouch, Kotaro transforms into New Den-O.

Den-BirdEdit

The Machine New Den-Bird (マシンNEWデンバード, Mashin Nyū Denbādo^?) is New Den-O's bike that is able to launch from the DenLiner. While docked in the New DenLiner, it serves as the control mechanism for the train. When a Rider Pass, along with a Rider Ticket, is inserted into the Den-Bird while it is docked in the New DenLiner, the date on the ticket becomes New DenLiner's destination. Like the model Den-O uses New Den-O's Den-Bird is based on a Honda XR250.

New DenGasherEdit

The Combination Armament New DenGasher (連結武装NEWデンガッシャー, Renketsu Busō Nyū Dengasshā^?) is modeled after a bullet train and is composed of four separate parts (Sword, Gun, Ax, and Grip) that, when not in use, are attached to the New Den-O Belt. It is the same model as Den-O's. In Strike Form, New Den-O can use the weapon in sword mode, although by preference he uses the Macheteddy most of the time. The weapon is also used by his Vega Form in a formation when the four parts are linked together in a straight line, one by one - Sword, Gun, Ax, and Grip in that order. Once complete, the New DenGasher extends itself until it reaches the size of a naginata.

Full ChargeEdit

New Den-O has three different Full Charge (フルチャージ, Furu Chāji^?) finishing moves, two for his initial Strike Form.

• When in Strike Form, Full Charge is used in conjunction with the Macheteddy to execute the Counter Slash (カウンタースラッシュ, Kauntā Surasshu^?) downward slash.
• When in Strike Form, Full Charge is used to execute his Rider Kick called the Strike Spurt (ストライクスパート, Sutoraiku Supāto^?).
• When in Vega Form, Full Charge is used in conjunction with the New DenGasher to execute the Brandish Dive (ブランディッシュダイブ, Burandisshu Daibu^?), running through the opponent while swinging the New DenGasher at him.

New Den-LinerEdit

The New DenLiner (NEWデンライナー, Nyū Denrainā^?) is New Den-O's transportation system, a bullet train mainly used for traveling to other times. It is similar to the DenLiner, but is blue to match New Den-O's color scheme. Like the DenLiner, a DenBird is usually required for the train to move, though it can be substituted with an exercise bike.

Behind the scenesEdit

PortrayalEdit

Kotaro Nogami is portrayed by Dori Sakurada (桜田 通, Sakurada Dōri^?). As Kamen Rider New Den-O, he has had several suit actors.

• Cho Kamen Rider Den-O & Decade Neo Generations: The Onigashima Warship: Makoto Ito (伊藤 慎, Itō Makoto^?)
• Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider The Movie: Cho-Den-O Trilogy: Makoto Itō (伊藤 慎, Itō Makoto^?)
• OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders: Jun Watanabe (渡辺 淳, Watanabe Jun^?), Shinichi Kaneda (金田 進一, Kaneda Shin'ichi^?), Masashi Takada (高田 将司, Takada Masashi^?)

TriviaEdit

• Kotaro is the only Movie Exclusive Rider in Den-O that isn't a villain or antihero.
  • He is also the first movie-exclusive Rider to have many appearances in other movies.
• The way his Rider System works is similar to Zeronos' Zero Form, which his Imagin becomes a weapon for him to wield.
• Kotaro shares his given name with the Showa-era Rider Kotaro Minami.
• Deneb is the only Imagin that does not become a weapon when he posses New Den-O, though he does have a weapon form in his own right as the Denebick Buster for Zeronos' aforementioned Zero Form.
• Ryutaros is the only imagin who has not transformed into New Den-O and thus has yet to gain a weapon form.
• Kamen Rider New Den-O was featured in early promotional material for Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen via reused footage of the All Riders gathering in OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders. Footage of All Riders from Let's Go Kamen Riders was used in the original teaser which was shown after Movie War Mega Max, which had no actual footage from Super Hero Taisen, and the first TV trailer, which made it look as if the Go-Busters were engaging All Riders. Ultimately, all the primary Riders from Ichigo to Fourze appeared, along with a handful of secondary Riders, which did not include New Den-O.
