Full Episodes of Kamen Rider Ryuki Are Now On YouTube

Four days ago, SHOUT! Factory’s TokuSHOUTsu block announced on their Twitter page that they were beginning to upload the first twenty episodes of Kamen Rider Ryuki on their YouTube channel. Two days later, they finished uploading the entire series for free on YouTube (In North America).

It is a surprise that there isn’t an exact time limit for how long this will be available, but Ryuki isn’t the only Heisei Rider on TokuSHOUTsu’s YouTube Channel, there are several episodes of Kamen Rider Zero-One and the first 13 episodes of Kamen Rider Kuuga available to stream on their channel.

Fun fact about the Ryuki series, he was the third Heisei Rider in the Heisei era and it was the 16th installment in the Kamen Rider Franchise. It started as a collaboration between Ishinomori Productions and Toei, it was originally shown from February 3, 2002, to January 19, 2003. This was a Kamen Rider Series that incorporated elements of a card game, influenced by the popularity of Yu-Gi-Oh! At the time. It also consists of one movie, three specials, manga spin-offs, a video game adaptation, and a novel adaptation. Ryuki would make later appearances on later shows such as Decade and Zi-O, and in Kamen Rider Geats × Revice: Movie Battle Royale, a dedication to Kamen Rider Ryuki’s 20th Anniversary. In 2009, Ryuki was adapted into the American television series Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight, the first adaptation of a Kamen Rider Series in the United States since Saban’s Masked Rider in 1996.

As a reminder, you can watch many other Tokusatsu favorites like Ultraman and Kamen Rider on the official tokuSHOUTsu website, and on the following platforms:

“Mirror World” exists symmetrically beyond an invisible mirror in space, and an exact copy of our human world, where only monsters can dwell. Evil monsters frequently cross the mirror and attack our world. Only Kamen Riders who make a contract with a specific monster and obtain special power from the monster can enter “Mirror World” and fight against evil monsters with the help of “Advent Card.” Shinji Kido, a journalist, contracts with Dragon, and becomes Kamen Rider Ryuki. He fights a fierce battle with evil monsters. Many Kamen Riders appear one after another and fight to satisfy their own aims. However, only one Kamen Rider can outlive others. Thus, it is their fate to keep fighting to the last man.
