Kamen Rider Build, also known as the genius physicist Kiryu Sento,
pursued the truth behind Katsuragi Takumi's murder in order to clear Banjo's name.
But with both the Pandora Box and his Bottles stolen, he found himself in a dire predicament.
Thankfully, Banjo had finally transformed into a Kamen Rider.
It's about time I became a Kamen Rider too!
What's the name gonna be?
A name?
If you ask me, a good name would be "Kamen Rider Meathead."
And just why do you think that'd be a good name?
Whatever.
We'll announce it in today's Episode 12.
I'm...
A spy for Nanba Heavy Industries.
It's not a coincidence that I came here, either.
I knew this place from the very start.
That it was the Kamen Rider's hideout.
So I didn't drop the matchbox after all!
So I didn't forget to close the fridge door after all!
- Yeah! - Yeah!
Who cares about that?!
Go on.
I...
Became acquainted with you all...
In order to supply them with information on Build.
Nanba Heavy Industries...
Don't they always show up in those TV commercials?
It's the major leader in the country's heavy industries.
Publicly, they have a good reputation,
but there are rumors that they illegally make weapons and smuggle goods.
Their influence is apparently so strong that even the three Prime Ministers aren't able to do a thing.
They're also the ones pulling the strings behind Faust.
No way...
If that's true...
Faust probably knows about this place.
But why haven't they attacked us?
To gather data on Build.
The goal of Nanba Heavy Industries' president...
Is to make the Kamen Rider into Touto's military weapon.
Faust is connected with the Touto government?
As if!
I became a spy for Nanba Heavy Industries in order to find evidence for that.
So you being a spy is just your cover?
There's no way we could believe that.
Faust's secrets are contained in this.
Please, please!
Please don't!
- By the way, is the Pandora Box safe?
Please let me go!
- It's hidden in the place we decided on.
That's Rogue.
I see.
So you put it back where it belonged...
- But...
What could he mean by "the place we decided on"?
He said that they "put it back where it belonged."
It's unlikely they brought it back to the institute in Touto...
He must have been talking about where the Pandora Box was being held before that...
The Nanba Heavy Industries Institute of Synthetic Science...
Nanba
It should be about time by now...
I have arrived, Chairman.
I have something to ask of you.
The Conspirable Theory
Episode 12
Good morning.
The researchers aren't scheduled to work right now.
I just felt like researching Nanba Heavy Industries.
This institute was where you guys were previously located, right?
But from what I can see of the blueprint layout,
I don't see any room that could have been used for storing the Pandora Box...
Why investigate something like that?
Well, that's a secret.
The third basement floor.
But it only goes down to the second floor...
A third basement floor!
How?
Well, that's a secret.
So you can make jokes as well...
Which one is the real you?
That should be obvious.
We're both in the same cage.
So...
Why go so far to expose their connection to the government?
Right?
Three years ago...
Right after the Pandora Box's panel was stolen...
There was a gas explosion accident...
At Nanba Heavy Industries' research institute.
Eleven research members lost their lives there.
In order to hide the fact that the panel got stolen, the government...
Murdered them.
Among the research members who were...
Was my father.
I...
I wanted to avenge my father!
I can't believe we're here again.
Nanba Heavy Industries Institute of Synthetic Science
Can we really believe something a spy told us?
It's still worth investigating.
Hey, you dropped your Driver.
Be more careful with this thing!
It's yours.
The Kamen Rider isn't meant to be a military weapon.
It's meant to protect people.
Don't forget that.
After all this time with you,
I couldn't forget even if I wanted to.
What is this place?
Is it really here?
I'm impressed you found this place.
Unfortunately, I'd like to ask you to leave.
C'mon, we're already here.
How about a bit of fun?
I'm taking the lead today.
Make sure you got my back.
No way...
WAKE UP!
CROSS-Z DRAGON!
ARE YOU READY?
Henshin!
WAKE UP BURNING!
GET CROSS-Z DRAGON!
YEAH!
BEAT CLOSER!
Despite the fact that you've become a Kamen Rider, my Hazard Level far exceeds yours.
Don't underestimate me!
Well how about that.
You actually hid it in a place like this, huh?
Stalk!
What are you doing here?
It's obvious, isn't it?
I'm here to finish some business...
With you, that is!
Have you lost your mind?!
I told you already.
Faust doesn't belong to you!
Could it be over here?
Bingo!
Like I'll let you have them!
(Train)
Isn't this the Densha Bottle?!
Wait...
If my calculations are correct, then...
(Pirate) KAIZOKU!
(Train) DENSYA!
BEST MATCH!
Here comes a Best Match!
ARE YOU READY?
Henshin!
THE PUNCTUAL SWASHBUCKLER!
KAIZOKURESSYA!
YEAHHH!
I'm not gonna let you show me up!
I'm gonna tear off that mask of yours!
HIT PARADE! HIT PARADE!
MILLION HIT!
Not bad.
You're doing better than I thought you would.
However, today's objective was this.
See ya!
Hey...
Hey, wait!
Stalk!
You're not going anywhere!
READY GO!
VORTEX BREAK!
I can't believe I'm actually being forced to retreat…
Hey, you did great as my assistant!
You did pretty well too, for an amateur.
Shut up!
Hey!
Why did you untie her?!
A musclehead like you wouldn't get it!
- Move it, move it!
You guys actually got back both Faust's panels and all our Bottles!
Nice work!
Nice—
What's he doing?
He got caught up in developing a new weapon after getting all excited about that new Best Match.
It's finished!
I'm calling it...
The Pirate Hassyar!
And its attacks are...
Regular Train!
Express Train!
Rapid Train!
Pirate Train!
Four stages, essentially!
It's amazing, right?
It's the best, right?
I'm a genius, right?
I gotta test this out soon...
Don't point that thing at me!
Stop that, you idiot!
Hey...
Could you let me borrow this panel?
That damn Stalk...
So the Pandora Box was stolen.
Chairman!
I'm terribly sorry.
What's done is done, no use in dwelling over it.
But...
There's a serious problem in it being stolen from my research establishment.
We should be making our move soon.
This panel was found in the Nanba Heavy Industries Institute.
Faust and Nanba Heavy Industries are connected.
Himuro Taizan
Prime Minister of Touto
What?
That research establishment is associated with the Touto government, right?
It's possible that the government may be having some part in Faust's operations as well.
Impossible.
That would be unthinkable!
Please!
Please investigate this as soon as possible.
Excuse me.
What?!
It seems your guess was off the mark.
The Touto government is about to commence its operation to take down Faust.
Who are you?
Where is the panel?
Arrest that woman!
- Yes sir! - Yes sir!
Come here!
Let me go!
This is the worst...
Hey! Wait!
Ouch!
The motorcycle, the motorcycle!
Commencing the operation to search and destroy Faust.
Move out!
Let's go!
Are you Night Rogue?
Arrest him!
I am the founder of Faust...
I can't allow something like the government to take it down!
Faust...
Belongs to me!
Fire!
Something doesn't feel right.
It seems like a performance almost.
Even so, we can't overlook this.
Are you really Rogue?
Answer me!
WIND SKILL!
HURRICANE SLASH!
(Pirate) KAIZOKU!
(Train) DENSYA!
BEST MATCH!
ARE YOU READY?
Build Up!
KAIZOKURESSYA!
YEAHHH!
REGULAR TRAIN!
DEPART!
EXPRESS TRAIN!
DEPART!
RAPID TRAIN!
DEPART!
REGULAR TRAIN!
EXPRESS TRAIN!
RAPID TRAIN!
ELECTRIC STEAM!
PIRATE TRAIN!
FULL STEAM AHEAD!
Mr. Utsumi!
Isn't he the interim Prime Minister's secretary?!
He used him!
- What's going on?! - No way!
I thought that if I served this nation...
Japan would regain its pride and honor!
Even if I have to use force to allow our country to recover...
I wouldn't have it any other...
Any other...
I can't let you take your own life!
Mr. Utsumi!
Where did I lose my way...
I just...
I just wanted to live normally...
Laughing at silly things...
Crying at memories...
Don't become like me...
Kiryu Sento.
Mr. Utsumi...
You know who I am?
Listen to me.
You still have a chance to—
Mr. Utsumi!
Interim Prime Minister Himuro's First Conference on "Faust Search and Destroy Operation"
It is very regrettable that a government official betrayed public trust,
and involved himself in acts which brought fear and panic to citizens.
However, we have destroyed the organization which created such monsters.
I, Himuro Gentoku, will protect Touto from now on.
Various pieces of evidence have been dug out from Faust's hideout.
However, no evidence of Nanba Heavy Industries' involvement could be found, let alone the Touto government.
Responsibility for everything has been pinned on Utsumi alone.
Dead men tell no tales, huh...
We might just be dancing in the palms of their hands...
Where are you going?
My duty here is done.
Not yet, it isn't.
Exposing the link between the Touto government and Nanba Heavy Industries,
Walking endlessly through the night
kono mama aruki tsuzuketeru
and returning the Pandora Box to its proper place...
Following the footprints you've left
konnya mo massugu hitori no ashiato tadotte
Our goals are the same.
Don't forget your coverage of Build.
And if the journey takes an eternity
hateshinai dakedo kimi dake wa
You have to help create a better image for the Kamen Rider.
Don't forget an article about my innocence too.
I know you'll be waiting, with that neverending smile
doko ka de matteru egao tayasazu ni
There you will
I'm hungry!
Be The One, Be The One
We have your share too!
All right!
- Can I really eat? - Yes, it's fine!
Who won't ever give up Earth's tomorrow!
ashita no chikyuu wo nagedasenai kara
- Stop crying already! - I'm not crying.
Be The Light, Be The Light
- Not crying? - Thanks for the meal!
All right!
Here!
You'll become stronger, so that love always prevails!
tsuyoku nareru yo ai wa makenai
- Yes, it was delicious. - Thank you!
Well then, what do we do now?
Treasure and embrace the things you want to save
nanika wo tasuke sukutte dakishime
I'll become Build and expose Stalk's true identity.
As you feel my beating heart be passed on
kokoro ni furete todoku yo tsutaware
You're not Build.
Be The One, Be The Light
Why?!
Have I not gotten your—
Send that message through as it reverberates!
Message okoru yo hibiku yo
- You're Cross-Z.
Kamen Rider Cross-Z.
Cross-Z, huh...
Not bad.
Cross-Z isn't that bad of a name, right?
Don't startle me like that…
Nabeshima?
It's been a while.
I'm in your debt for what you've done for me.
Actually...
My memory has returned.
The one who instructed me to pin the murder on Banjo Ryuga...
What did you say?
Kamen Rider Build!
NE
XT
PRE
VIEW
There's a mastermind behind all this.
The mastermind is finally revealed!
What did you say?
Well now, what are you gonna do?
Kamen Rider Build is a work of fiction.
Who is the Culprit?
I figured you wouldn't be able to predict that.
Who Took Off The Veil?
Episode 13
This is the worst.
