Kamen Rider Ashura

Kamen Rider Ashura (仮面ライダーアシュラ) is a Japanese tokusatsu drama series in Toei Company's Kamen Rider Series. It is the second series in the Reiwa Period run, and the thirty-first series overall. The series started on October 25th 2020, joining Renkei Sentai Shoushaman in the Super Hero Time line-up after the finale of Kamen Rider Zero-One. After Shoushaman's conclusion, Ashura was joined by Ancient Sentai Kareiger in February 2021. After the finale of Ashura, Kareiger would be joined by Kamen Rider Kaijin on the Super Hero Time block.

The show tagline is "Burn, like the rising phoenix!" (燃やせ、上昇するフェニックスのように!). The motif of the series is a mix of Mythology, the strength of the human brain, achieving your dreams and overcoming sorrow.

Plot
Masayuki Akihiro is a 22-year old, who works at a school in Tokyo which is made especially for kids on the autism spectrum so they can have a proper education like the other children in the country without having to worry about the strict rules of regular schools. One day, Masayuki is encountered by the Hoarder's (A group of monster hunters, bent on destroying reality as we know it) and turned into a cyborg, capable of fusing with Animal DNA to transform into "Ashura" (The warrior who will obey every command of the Hoarder's King Kyliodas). However, like Kamen Rider #1 before him, Masayuki refuses to fight for evil and thus becomes "Kamen Rider Ashura" to fight for the people he wants to protect! Tragedy will fall upon our hero during this heart-breaking story of death and love!
