Some info on the show’s premise and its three main Riders.

It is present day. A secret computer game virus spreads in the world. When humans become infected, the game viruses known as Bugsters take over their bodies and mutate them. They threaten the world as they plan to overthrow the human race!

The only thing that can defeat the game virus is a game Rider! In order to counteract the Bugsters, humans have developed a Kamen Rider system to fight with the power of video games. The video game developer, the Genmu Corporation, has given the Seito University Hospital their Gamer Driver – fitted with a game console as a belt, inserting the game carts (Rider Gashatto) allows them to become Kamen Riders!

The warriors, four doctors, are compatible users chosen to defeat the viruses! It’s time to kick off the never-before-seen battle of Bugster VS Game Rider and Doctor VS Doctor in Kamen Rider Ex-Aid!

Emu Hojo / Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Played by Hiroki Ijima 

Our hero, 24-year-old Emu Hojo, is a Seito University Hospital resident physician studying in pediatrics. He is also the face behind a prodigy gamer known as “M”.

Hiiro Kagami / Kamen Rider Brave: Played by Toshiki Seto

Although Hiiro works at the same hospital as Emu, he comes from overseas as a gifted surgeon*. Although he looks down on Emu, he will fight by his side to destroy the Bugsters and will eventually warm up to him. He is Ex-Aid’s first hurdle as a hero.

* The kanji used here (外科医) can either mean “psysician” or “surgeon” which are different things, so that’s tricky to translate without visual context. But surgeon sounds more impressive since they are calling him a GIFTED one.

Taiga Hanaya / Kamen Rider Snipe: Played by Ukyo Matsumoto

A silver-haired doctor? Taiga is actually a former doctor who was stripped of his medical license, and there will be a story as to why. He is fierce in battle.

In addition to this, the series will be narrated by Junichi Suwabe.
