Do you want to know why you can transform into Ex-Aid, without a compatibility surgery?
And why you could create a new Gashat?
And the reason behind those headaches after transforming?!
Well, the answer's simple...
You are patient zero!
The very first man infected with the Bugster virus!
The game disease... broke out...!
Emu...
Emu!
What just happened? I don't get it!
What happened to Emu?
Beats me.
A Sudden Fantasy!?
His game disease broke out, that much is obvious.
But...
Why didn't the Bugster come out?
But I'm really glad Emu is alright!
Indeed, what a relief.
Is it, though?
The Bugster is still lying inside him.
He's right, we can't let our guard down.
What are you talking about?
Well, it's about...
Emu!
Yes, that's correct.
Yo.
This cannot do! You must go back to your room and take a rest!
Don't worry about me, buddy. 'Kay?
Buddy...?
He's not playing games, yet he took on the gamer M persona.
What is happening?
Hojo Emu was supposed to vanish....
No one will get in my way.
All I need is to collect the Bugster data, and finish Kamen Rider Chronicle.
Only six Bugsters remain.
Takino School Nihon Buyo Training Hall
You're losing focus there, missy!
Do you want to disgrace our Takino School?!
I'm sorry!
But I'm not losing my...
Don't you talk back to me!
Besides, you're always...
My feet are numb!
What's with that dancing?
Sheesh...
Alright... Pipopapo turn!
Geez... Don't play with me!
Hojo, I believe you're not acting like yourself...
What are you talking about? I am who I am!
Let's do this! Pipopapo combo!
Hiiro, he's scaring me.
Can it be that when his game disease broke out, the Bugster took control of his personality?
What?!
A patient, now of all times?!
Finally! It's time to play the game!
The game, you say...?
The Bugster-busting game, of course.
I'm not gonna lose to anybody!
I'll go. Alright!
Wait!
Take care out there.
Maybe I should give it a try...
Costume Change!
I must hurry!
Take care out there...
100 yen...?
Mai! What's with that dancing?
You forgot the prop, take it...!
Wait, Mai!
Wait...
No, wait... Mai! Mai!
Is she the one?
The Bugster is visible on-screen?
That's different from the usual symptoms.
The virus might have evolved even further.
Well, we've got ourselves a game patient.
I have taken over this female body.
Booting systems. Level 30.
Level 30?!
Oh look, it's Gutton, the final boss of Gekitotsu Robots.
Let's do this.
Wait, intern!
You're not in the condition to fight. Give me your Gashats.
No way. This is my game.
MIGHTY ACTION X! GEKITOTSU ROBOTS!
C'mon, let's play Gekitotsu Robots together.
Transformation Double Plus!
CLICK AND LOAD!
CLICK AND OPEN!
LEVEL UP!
MIGHTY ACTION X!
CLICK AND UP!
GEKITOTSU ROBOTS!
I'll clear this with no continues!
Ow!
That hurts...
This level gap kinda sucks!
If that's the case...
C'mon! Come and get me!
METALIZE!
What's wrong?
Come at me.
And after Metalize, next comes...
MUSCLE UP!
Muscle up!
Get lost!
Wow...
The best part of games is figuring out how to beat stronger opponents.
Losing energy. Moving to sleep mode.
The patient turned back to normal.
The virus must be weakened.
Hey!
Wake up! That all you got?
Come out and fight, Gutton!
- Emu, what are you doing?!
Don't touch me!
CLICK TO CLOSE! CLICK TO SAVE!
What the heck...?
The game is over.
Man, this is just so lame...
We were about to get to the best part too...
The patient, Yamato Mai, has woken up. Time to ask her questions.
I can't detect the symptoms.
Does it mean it's different from normal game disease?
In any case, just like the patient, he should be cured if we defeat his Bugster.
Hey, don't treat me like a patient. I'm fine, see?
Just give me a call if Gutton shows up again.
And what about the patient?
Eh, who cares about the patient.
You're the doctor here, so that's your job, right?
And my job is to beat the Bugster.
That's pretty much it.
What's this all about?
Wake up already.
You're not supposed to be like this.
You're supposed to cure the patient, and make them smile again.
That's who you are!
Emu, are you alright?!
I said I'm fine!
Emu...
That's enough.
Intern, we don't need you here. No thank you.
I will talk with the patient.
Wait, you will?!
If the intern could do it, then so can I.
Right now, you're not a doctor.
Hey... That's mine, give it back.
Something... just feels off.
If M became a genius gamer because of the game disease, then...
That means I didn't lose to him, but to the Bugster inside of him?
Hell if I know. Don't ask me.
What's with that answer?
What do you want with him anyway?
Don't make me repeat myself.
I just want to take his Gashats, that's all.
Let's say you succeeded. What then?
Then I'm going to defeat all the Bugsters.
So you're saying... you should be the only one?
Emu, wake up!
Hiiro is talking to the patient in your place!
The same Hiiro who dislikes getting invested with his patients!
"In my place?"
I don't really care.
As long as I get to play games, I'm good.
I have a public performance scheduled pretty soon.
But I can't handle the pressure of carrying the name of Takino School and its rich traditions...
I keep doubting myself whether I can really do it or not...
You're the one who wanted to stand in stage. It's your own will.
If you're afraid of the results, then that just means you lack determination.
Determination...
You might be correct.
But we don't have much time left until the performance,
and now that I'm sick, I can no longer...
How will you face your stress is something you have to deal with yourself.
Systems rebooted.
Switching to data form. Performing evacuation.
Curses!
Objective confirmed.
MIGHTY ACTION X!
Enemy identified.

That's my Gashat.
Don't get in the way!
I told you I'll beat the Bugster!

GASHACON BREAKER!
Let's do this!
That idiot!
Hiiro, don't be rash!
Genm!
Ow...
This is the end.
I will take your Gashats.
TADDLE FANTASY!
LET'S GET GOING! KING OF FANTASY!
Oh crap...
CLICK TO SAVE!
What was that for?!
Take this Gashat, if you can.
Do it.
If the intern could do it...
...then so can I!
CONFUSION!
He did that on purpose?
He got Genm's Gashat!
I see! Well played.
But it's futile. That is a level 50 Gashat.
A mere novice like you, who's only advanced to Level 5, could never control it.
We'll see about that.
TADDLE FANTASY!
LET'S GET GOING! KING OF FANTASY!

Hiiro!
Oh, come on...
So it took over his body.
Don't lump me together with that intern.
Wait, what?
Let...me...go!
What...?
I am... the best...
...doctor in the world!
There's nothing that can stop me.
I have the willpower to fulfill my duty!
Will...power...
That's what it takes to be a doctor...
To be trusted with someone's life!
Doctor...
Emu?!
CLICK TO SAVE!
Huh? Where am I...?
Are you... back to normal?
He's controlling the power of the Demon King?!
We will now begin the Bugster elimination.
If you insist on using my Gashat, two can play that game.

That spoiled boy is overdoing it...
The operation is finished.
Thank you very, very much.
I will do my best!
Just like your strong determination, Dr. Kagami.
If you don't mind, please allow me to invite you to my performance.
I'm sorry, but I make a point not to invest myself to my patients.
Hiiro, Emu is back to normal.
I'm so sorry!
I have no idea why I acted that way...
You need to train your mental strength better.
That is, if you still plan to be a doctor.
Welcome back, Emu.
Next time, on Kamen Rider Ex-Aid...
Theme parks are the best!
I was scared.
It might be irreversible, now that I think about it.
...Emu is unable to transform
Afraid of the game disease...
...Emu is unable to transform
I told you, the world only needs one Kamen Rider.
Snipe awakens!
Snipe Level 50...!
Take Off Against The Wind!
I have nothing to lose, nothing at all.
