We're gonna let the introduction run a little longer this week.
Wouldn't that be harder to understand?
Only if you keep interrupting.
Let's get on with it...
Our story takes place in Touto.
The amnesiac physicist, Kiryuu Sento,
Kiryuu Sento
transforms into Kamen Rider Build to protect the citizens from monsters called Smash.
Smash
What are you doing here, Owner?
Isurugi Souichi
Now you're the one interrupting!
Isurugi Souichi
Isurugi Misora
Shut up and listen.
Isurugi Misora
Banjou Ryuuga
One day, after becoming convinced of the innocence of the escaped murder convict, Banjou Ryuuga,
Himuro Gentoku
Sento helps him escape the Touto government.
Himuro Gentoku
As Sento begins to wonder if he, too, is a Smash experiment...
Takigawa Sawa
Faust
He hunts down the secret organization, Faust,
Faust
in hopes of finding Nabeshima, a man who can testify to Banjou's innocence.
But Faust ensures Nabeshima loses his memory.
And now, after finding one of the panels that Faust had supposedly stolen in his secret base,
Sento asks the man who's been taking care of him about his connection to Faust.
And now Misora is slipping in!
What'll happen on Episode 5?!
Why are you butting in now?
They said everything!
I'm supposed to be the star here!
It's been ten years since the Martian Pandora's Box caused the Sky Wall Tragedy.
Our country was split in three: Touto, Seito, and Hokuto, and chaos has ensued.
I'm going to keep walking on tonight
Moving on straight ahead
Leaving only a single set of footprints ahead of me
It seems so vast, but I get the feeling you're out there
Waiting for me somewhere
With a smile that never fades
There you will...
Be the one, be the one
All right!
Who'll never give up on the Earth's future
Be the lights, be the lights
All right!
You can be stronger
Love will never lose!
Helping, saving, and embracing
Touching our hearts so that it can reach out
Be the one, be the lights
Send this message and let it ring out!
Unsteady Identity
I came up with this blend to compete with the place I work at, part time.
It's name is... "What's Up At nascita?"
So... what were we doing?
Stop playing dumb.
Faust stole this from the laboratory.
So why do you have it?
Does this mean you're a member of Faust?
Me... in Faust?
You hear that?
No, no, no, no...
What's so funny?!
What kind of villain could be as stylish as me?
Then where'd the panel come from?
We got it when Faust kidnapped me.
Kidnapped?
Yeah.
I have this power to strengthen Smash essence, as you know.
That's why they came after me...
But Dad saved me.
When I got Misora out of their lair,
I took that panel and the bottles with me.
So the reason you're a shut in is... like...
Hey.
Because Faust is still after me!
Dad had a different job originally, but...
Here.
Owner, you were an astronaut?!
So you knew.
You were the one who found Pandora's Box on Mars, right?
And the guy who caused the Skywall Disaster by causing Pandora's Box to emit that light...
That was also you.
Mars really did a number on my mind, back then.
I still don't understand why I did that.
I heard you were the one who gave Faust the stolen panels.
That was to save Misora.
I had to make them believe I was on their side,
or I couldn't have gotten in their hideout.
Then why didn't you give the panel back to the government?
Give it back?
If Faust was serious, they could wipe the lab off the map.
Then why not say so sooner?
Because I wanted you to be Build.
I can't stand the way that Faust kills people like they're insects.
But Misora and I can't do anything on our own.
That's when I met you.
"I'm sure this guy can use the bottles for good, and bring Faust down..."
That's what I thought.
But I wasn't sure you'd agree, if I told you everything...
So I decided to not explain the panel until you noticed it yourself.
Is that why you made me get a job at the lab?
The question was bound to come up if I was studying Pandora's Box.
So everything went according to your plan, huh?
Fine, then.
Out of respect for the guts you need to serve this nasty coffee to people...
I'll forgive you.
Seriously? That's way too nice.
If I wasn't a good person, then I wouldn't have ever drunk a coffee
entirely inspired by a bad pun.
It's not that bad!
Nasty! So bad!
How is it so bad?!
You don't appreciate the mature flavor!
Got a huge scoop right here!
I found someone who knows about Sento's past.
How do you even know they know me?
I was showing your picture around,
and the owner of a music venue helped me find one of your band members.
I had a band?!
Yeah.
You were in it with Kishida Tatsuya, an underclassman from your school days.
Bro!
Ow!
Bro! Bro!
Oh, sorry, sorry...
Bro! Bro!
Satou Tarou?!
That's right, that's your name!
Wait, hang on...
So Kiryuu Sento isn't your real name?
The owner named me that.
When he took me in, I had no ID.
But, man... Satou Tarou?
Doesn't ring a bell at all.
Wow, you really lost your memory...
Bro! Here, we're here!
This is the apartment we lived in.
No way... Really?
There!
Come on, Bro! Right this way.
Welcome home, Bro!
Filthy...!
Are you remembering anything?
No...
All I know is that I wouldn't want to live here!
I'm a clean freak.
This really can't be right...
Lynks
You really are in a band!
We're called "Lynks!" Yeah!
There's no doubt about it!
Bro, you always used to say...
"If the band's a hit, I wanna marry a newscaster chick,
eat a thousand beef bowls with eggs, and buy up 1000 buildings!"
Hey, hey, question...
Yeah?
When did Satou Tarou disappear?
I think it was September 5th, yeah.
That's the same day the owner found me.
Who... am I?
So how were you laying down?
Just normally.
Do it!
Just lay down!
Okay...
Whoa, hang on...
Well, do you recognize anything?
Is this place familiar?
No, this is the first time I've been here.
What was Satou Tarou doing on the 5th of September?
He had this new job, helping with some new drug...
Didn't see him after that, yeah.
A new drug?
Could you tell us more about that?
Uh, yeah, sure.
Faust bots...
I'm sorry!
You scared me! Don't stop so suddenly!
Government Guardians! Hide!
T-thank you!
How'd those government bots become Faust ones...?
HAWK! GATLING!
BEST MATCH!
ARE YOU READY?
What is that?!
Transform!
SOARING WILDMAN!
HAWKGATLING!
My bro is Kamen Rider?!
Move!
YEAH!
Hurry and run!
Quick!
It's that fugitive!
Yes!
Hey, could you look over here?
So, the superhero arrives...
Who are you?!
What the—
Cobra...
Close!
It's actually Blood Stalk.
Blood Stalk?
A Smash has appeared in the park in area C4.
He's been experimented on twice, so if
you don't take his essence soon he'll die.
Think he'll last about 3 hours.
Fight hard!

The one who turned Nabeshima into a Smash...!
You're right about that one.
Your reward is that you get to play with me!
RABBIT! TANK!
BEST MATCH!
ARE YOU READY?
Build Up!
FULLMETAL MOONSAULT!
RABBITTANK!
YEAH!
READY, GO!
VORTEX FINISH!
YEAH!
What?!
Nice kick.
I'd put that at Hazard Level 3.2.
But there's room for growth.
Seeya!
Bro!
You okay?!
Yeah.
Who was that guy?
He's still not back?!
What are you so ticked off about?
Don't interrupt!
Sento's only thinking about himself, man.
And here I am, screwed, 'cause Nabeshima can't testify...
Why can coffee? Isn't this place a cafe?
It's better than Dad's coffee, isn't it?
Good point.
Finally! What took you?
So this is your crib, huh?
Do you know how long I was wait—
Shut up!
Who is this freak?
Who are you calling a freak...?!
Ow!
Ow, ow, ow...
You okay?
Not at all!
Are you even trying to help clear my name?
Shush, I'm still trying to process this whole Satou Tarou stuff.
Who the hell is Satou Tarou?
Done!
Oh, there's a bottle, too.
No way!
Now that is good news!
Bottle!
Hey, hold up!
You know I'm stuck in here?!
Step outside!
Wait, you're that escaped murderer!
Yeah, and?
Ow!
Ow...
I didn't kill anybody.
Wait, what do you mean?
Didn't you kill Katsuragi?!
I just saw the body.
He says he was framed.
Framed?
No way?!
If you didn't kill him, then...
I gotta go home!
Hey!
You better not snitch on me!
The Comic Bottle, huh?
What would go well with that...
Pirate, probably?
No, maybe Hawk...
Which one is it?!
Hey!
Quit screwing around and help prove—
Oh, pipe down.
This is going to help you, too.
Faust used Nabeshima to frame you, remember?
If we can find their base, and expose them...
It'll lead to your name being cleared.
And to do that...
No way...
All done now?
Now let's deal with...
In that case, I'll make a weapon!
The best weapon suited to ninja comics!
The hell?! Stop screwing around, man!
Hey!
Ninja and manga...
So a sword, then! Right.
Maybe it can shoot fire, cause a tornado, or emit smoke...
It's my fault...
It's my fault that he...!
What do you intend on doing with him?
A test.
To see if I've found someone worth my time.
Done!
I'll call it...
The 4-Panel Ninja Sword!
Can't wait to test it!
Watch it!
I wanna test it... wanna test!
Test it on me and there'll be hell to pay.
Man, you're awake?
Got a tip on a Smash.
"I saw a Smash! It was heading in the direction of Touto Institute of Advanced Matter Physics!"
It's headed towards that lab you work at, apparently.
Maybe it's after Pandora's Box?
If so, then the owner was right about keeping the panels here...
Why don't you let the government's special forces handle it?
You can't really transform and fight, with them around.
Yeah... I think I'll just check it out.
Have a safe trip.
Hey.
Say you beat a Smash...
If you don't take its essence, what do you think happens?
Well...
If it lives, it might go back to their base, maybe?
Their base, huh...?
Aim!
Fire!
Do not let that Smash anywhere near the lab.
So the fugitive can't do anything but watch, is that it?
Wanna know who that Smash is?
Here's a hint...
"Bro!"
Tatsuya?!
Bingo!
But don't get the wrong idea.
He actually volunteered for the experiment.
So noble...
But so, so stupid.
Enough jokes...
RABBIT! TANK!
BEST MATCH!
Transform!
ARE YOU READY?
RABBITTANK!
READY, GO!
VORTEX FINISH!
YEAH!
Hazard Level 3.7, huh?
To think rage would increase it...
You're everything I had hoped for.
You'd better hurry and save that Smash.
Tatsuya!
How convenient.
Execute them both.
Leave the government guys to me!
He needs to be taken alive.
Bring him to me in one piece.
BUILD CHANGE!
There...
Take this!
Tatsuya...
I'll get you out of there.
NINJA! COMIC!
BEST MATCH!
ARE YOU READY?
Build Up.
THE STEALTH ENTERTAINER!
NINNIN COMIC!
YEAH!
I've got the winning formula.
DUPLICATION!
FIRE SKILL!
BLAZING SWORD!
Tatsuya! You okay?
Bro...
Sorry...
Don't worry about it.
Bro...
That job with the new drug...
You took it because I needed money...
Bro, I...
I wanted to help you...
But...
It didn't work...
I'm so sorry...
I'm so worthless...!
It's fine, don't talk.
It was Tatsuya?
Yeah.
Help me out. We need to get him to the cafe.
You...!
B-Bro—!
If he's turned back...
I can find their base.
Kamen Rider Build!

You don't care if Tatsuya dies?!
The Best Match Duo Collide...?!
Screw that!
Then who's gonna prove I'm innocent?!
He's just worried.
