Kotaro Nogami

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.

Forms

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 Taros, he does not change form; the Imagin instead becomes a weapon based on their abilities.

Equipment

Den-O Belt

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-Bird

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.

Macheteddy

Main article: Teddy#Macheteddy

Uratazao

Main article: Urataros

The Uratazao (ウラタザオ, Uratazao) is a fishing pole weapon that Urataros is able to transform into for New Den-O. This appears in Episode Blue: The Dispatched Imagin is Newtral when Kotaro is forced to team up with Urataros instead of Teddy. The Uratazao can strech to incredible lengths, allowing it to be used like a whip. The zao part of the name is from the Japanese word for "fishing pole" (釣り竿, tsurizao).

Kintaono

Main article: Kintaros

Kintaono (キンタオノ, Kintaono) is an axe-like weapon that Kintaros is able to transform into for New Den-O. This appears in Episode Blue when Kotaro is forced to team up with Kintaros instead of Teddy. The Kintaono is so heavy that New Den-O has a hard time useing it. The ono part of the name is directly taken from the Japanese word for "axe" (斧, ono).

Momotaken

Main article: Momotaros

Momotaken (モモタケン, Momotaken) is a sword weapon that Momotaros is able to transform into for New Den-O. This appears in OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders movie. The blade of the sword resembles flames, and the blades can actually ignite. The ken part of the name is from the Japanese word for "sword" (剣, ken).

New DenGasher

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 Charge

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 to execute the 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-Liner

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.

Trivia

• 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's Zero Form, where his Imagin becomes a weapon for him to wield.
• Kotaro shares his name with the Showa Rider Kotaro Minami.
