Fuuto Tantei was released in August 2017 in the Big Comic Spirits magazine, and it is an ongoing series. Although it is a small and comparatively recent part of the Kamen Rider franchise, fans have still shown it enough support through the years.

A mysterious new villain is on the run, and Shotaro and Philip have not yet discovered who it is. Tokime, a villainous beauty, has appeared in the city, and her charm is not really suitable for others. Kamen Rider will face yet another challenge and bring back some deep-rooted memories.

About Kamen Rider

Kamen Rider, also known as Masked Rider, is a metaseries/media mix of tokusatsu television programs and films, and manga, created by manga artist Shotaro Ishinomori.

The Kamen Rider media generally features a motorcycle-riding superhero with an insect motif who fights supervillains, often known as kaijin. The franchise began in 1971 with the Kamen Rider television series, which followed college student Takeshi Hongo and his quest to defeat the world-conquering Shocker organization.
