Goro Kisaragi
Portrayed by: Nobuo Yana
- Badass Biker: Seemed to be one in the past.
- Cool Old Guy
- It Runs in the Family: Seems like Gentaro's not the only one who is a Large Ham. Lampshaded by Tomoko who notes that he's "Gentaro's grandfather, all right."
Rokuro Utahoshi
Rokuro Utahoshi
Portrayed by: Toru Kazama
- Disappeared Dad
- Dying Alone: It is outright stated that he spent his last days alone in the Rabbit Hatch.
- Expy: Of Professor Henry, both were responsible for creating space-themed Riders.

Yuki's Parents
Portrayed by: Yu Kamio (Mr. Jojima), Mari Takahashi (Mrs. Jojima)
- Chewing the Scenery: Yuki's dad, full stop when he is cooking something.
- Cosplay Otaku Parents: Of course! Just look at them with their outfits in #43-44.
- And they do this for every meal they do, whether it be from India or China.
- Fun Personified
- Large Ham: YES!
- It Runs in the Family: No wonder Yuki is so hammy; they're also hams!
Jiro Inseki
Ryusei Sakuta's friend who ended up comatose when trying to use a faulty Zodiarts switch.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Was jealous of Ryusei being better than him, which made him try to use a Zodiarts switch.
- Riddle for the Ages: Where did Jiro get his Zodiarts switch and why was it faulty to begin with?
- Satellite Character: He's Ryusei's friend, and that's all we know about him.
- Small Role, Big Impact: His entire existence is to push Ryusei into becoming Kamen Rider Meteor.
- Was It Really Worth It?: After he awakens from his coma, he asks Ryusei if killing Gentaro was worth healing him.
The Presenters (MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD)
A race of mysterious aliens who are responsible for the Core Switches sent all across the universe to help civilizations advance and evolve.
- Greater-Scope Paragon: Were it not for the discovery of the Core Switch, the Fourze Driver and Astro Switches would never have been developed. Having said that, however...
- Greater-Scope Villain: It was also because of the Core Switch that Gamou turned villainous in the first place and began using AGHS students as lab rats for his Zodiarts Switches.
- Small Role, Big Impact: Only mentioned in the last leg of the show, but they're the reason behind all of Fourze happening.
- The Unseen: For as much importance they’re given. They never, and we mean NEVER appear on screen.
Characters from Movie Wars Mega Max
Nadeshiko Misaki/Kamen Rider Nadeshiko
Nadeshiko Misaki/Kamen Rider Nadeshiko
Portrayed by: Erina Mano (live), Hitomi Sanae (suit)
Her true identity is SOLU, a mysterious extraterrestrial substance. Finding itself intrigued by Gentaro, SOLU imitated the form of an unrelated female student in order to get close to him, copying the Fourze Driver as well. She is later kidnapped by Foundation X and turned into the SOLU Switch, which is used alongside the Poseidon Medals to transform Rem Kannagi into Super Galaxy King.
Tropes that apply to her in general
- Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: After being transformed into the SOLU switch by Kannagi, she becomes a being of pure energy and departs back into outer space. She comes back in Movie War Ultimatum to help fight the Akumaizers.
- Badass Adorable: Kicks the asses of all those Dustards, but looks so damn cute doing so.
- Batman Can Breathe in Space: When Gentaro shows her the moon, the two try to kiss. Then she gets the idea to remove her helmet, and that's when Gentaro gets the idea that something's wrong.
- Big Damn Heroes: In Movie War Ultimatum, she returns to Earth just in time to rescue Yuki from an exploding spaceship.
- The Cutie: Is she ever. Even the way she says "Uchu Kita!!!" radiates of cuteness!
- Foreshadowing:
- Her power to emulate Fourze's own powers could probably count for hinting Fourze Rocket States.
- Also, her being created from space could also foreshadow Kengo himself, seeing as he was born from the Core Switch.
- Fun with Acronyms: SOLU is short for, Seeds Of Life from the Universe. SOLU also kinda sounds like "soul".
- Human Aliens: Subverted. She looks human, but her true form is basically a blob of silver material.
- Identical Stranger: A justified case, as Nadeshiko copied a human girl. Understandably, when Gentaro meets said girl at the end, she doesn't recognize him.
- Kick Chick
- Kissing Discretion Shot: She gives a kiss to Gentaro at the end of the movie, but the camera was focused on them from the waist down, and only cuts to another scene a second later.
- New Transfer Student: Subverted.
- Proper Tights with a Skirt: Her school uniform has black tights to accompany her school uniform skirt.
- Punny Name: According to
Word of God, she is named after Nadeshiko Japan, the national women's football team which had recently won the FIFA Women's World Cup at the time of the movie's release. However, the team name does refer to the flower from which the Yamato Nadeshiko takes its name. - Satellite Love Interest: Justified, as there wouldn't be a lot personality in you if you were a substance from space who transformed into a human girl. She's got a lot more personality in Movie War Ultimatum, probably due to evolving even further.
- Shout-Out Theme Naming: Shares a name with Yuriko Misaki, although written differently in kanji.
- Took a Level in Badass: In Ultimatum. While she wasn't a push over before, she handles herself in combat very well this time, even untransformed.
- Verbal Tic: Repeats the last words that someone says until Gentaro admits his feelings for her. Dropped completely in Ultimatum.
Tropes exclusive to her as Kamen Rider Nadeshiko
- Ass Kicks You: One of the attacks on the Dustards. Also uses it a lot in Ultimatum
- Combination Attack: Can do the Double Rider Rocket Punch with Gentaro/Fourze.
- Finishing Move:
- Nadeshiko Kick
- Nadeshiko Rocket Kick
- Nadeshiko Rocket Punch
- Killer Rabbit: In spite of her cutesy demeanor, she uses an almost disturbingly brutal fighting style, kicking people through walls, repeatedly punching them in the gut, and at one point she breaks a Dustard's neck. The Director's Cut even shows her pulling elbow and knee strikes that are
not something you want your kids learning. - Male Gaze: Her first fight as a Kamen Rider has Gentaro definitely getting a good view at her. Judging by the fact he wasn't even looking at the Dustards he was fighting at the time and copying her every costume stretching kick.
Legendary Seven Riders
Legendary Seven Riders
The first seven Kamen Riders: Rider 1, Rider 2, V3, Riderman, X, Amazon and Stronger. They appear in Movie Wars Megamax to fight against Foundation X and to stop Rem Kannagi's plans.
- Back-to-Back Badasses: The Riders are paired together when dealing with Foundation X's forces all over the world: Riders 1 and 2, V3 and Riderman, and X and Amazon. Stronger...do you think he really even needed one?
- Cool Old Guys: Each of them have to be older than fifty by now, but they're still just as capable of kicking ass as they were back in the day.
- Justified since the majority of them (minus Riderman) are reconstructed humans (cyborgs), and Amazon is powered from his magic armlets.
- The Magnificent Seven Samurai
- Sealed Good in a Can: All seven are trapped inside Core Medals and Astro Switches by Kannagi.
Lem Kannagi
Lem Kannagi
Portrayed by: Toru Masuoka
- BFS: His coat turns into one.
- Big Bad: Of the entire Movie War. Even though Poseidon wasn't related to him at all, he still benefited from his existence.
- The Dragon: Has two of them, one of which turns into a literal dragon.
- The Glasses Come Off: He does this when revealing his treachery.
- A God Am I: What would you expect from a guy who calls himself "Super Galaxy King?"
- Hoist by His Own Petard: At the end of the movie, Nadeshiko helps Gentaro absorb his Cosmic Energy, which never would have happened if he hadn't done what he did below.
- Karmic Death: While he was probably mortally wounded by Fourze and OOO's Finishing Move, he's finished off when his own ship runs him down.
- Kick the Dog: His "murder" of Nadeshiko, turning her into an Astro Switch and using her as a part of his plans. He then proceeds to tell Gentaro that Nadeshiko wasn't just sealed in the Astro Switch but is pretty much dead.
- Jet Pack: Has one as the Super Galaxy King, similar to Fourze.
- One-Winged Angel: Despite using a Driver like a Kamen Rider, his transformation into Super Galaxy King is more like this.
- Rasputinian Death: As if taking two Super Mode Rider Kicks wasn't enough, he's knocked in front of a space shuttle and run over by it...then it explodes!
- Shout-Out: His "Super Galaxy King" is one to the villain of the Kamen Rider: Skyrider movie. Which is odd, considering Skyrider isn't involved in this movie at all...
- His defeat involving Fourze absorbing his Wave-Motion Gun thanks to an ally feeding it too him, which then goes downhill? It's not a far stretch from what happened in a certain anime the writer was previously involved with.
- The Starscream: To Foundation X. Once he gets what he needs, he wastes no time in betraying the organization for his own purposes.
- This Cannot Be!: His reaction to his defeat.
- Time Stands Still: He can do this using Poseidon's time-displaced Core Medals. It is ineffective against OOO Super TaToBa since those medals are from the future as well.
- Wave-Motion Gun: His ultimate attack. Unfortunately for him, Nadeshiko allows Gentaro to absorb it and use it to destroy him along side OOO.
Characters from Everyone Into Space
Inga Blink
Inga Blink
Portrayed by: Mikie Hara
- The Bus Came Back: for Movie Wars Ultimatum.
- Dark Action Girl: She's tough as hell and can fight hand-to-hand on equal terms with Tatsugami and Ryusei. Not surprising for the latter, considering they trained at the same martial arts school.
- Hero Antagonist: Attacks the KRC because the latter are Unwitting Pawns to the Space Ironmen.
- Fanservice: Her default outfit is tight black leather and a low-cut tank top. Made even more obvious in Movie Wars Ultimatum when she gets all sweaty in a fight and the viewers are treated to a slow-motion shot of her brushing her hair away from her cleavage.
- Poor Communication Kills: If she'd just bothered to explain the situation, she'd have saved everyone a lot of trouble.
- Ship Tease: With Ryusei in her first appearance, although it ultimately goes nowhere.
Space Ironmen
Groundain and Skydain
Portrayed by: Kohki Okada (Groundain), Ayumi Kinoshita (Skydain)
Harumi Saeba and Shizuka Shirayama
Groundain and Skydain
The Space Ironmen, a duo of immensely powerful robots constructed by Professor Blink, Inga's father. They turned against their creator and began a campaign to destroy humanity.- Big Bad Duumvirate: Of Everyone Into Space.
- Blade Below the Shoulder: Skydain
- Brother–Sister Team: Skydain and Groundain are siblings.
- Cute Clumsy Girl: Invoked by Skydain's human alias Shizuka.
- Foreshadowing: Saeba always appears wearing rollerblades, a hint to his identity as Groundain.
- No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: After Gentaro gets depowered sending XVII to the moon, the Ironmen waste no time beating him and Meteor to a pulp.
- Ridiculously Human Robot: They're able to disguise themselves as humans, and take advantage of it to fool the Kamen Rider Club into destroying their Power Limiter on XVII.
- Sealed Inside a Person-Shaped Can: The two of them were imprisoned in human form by Igna's father with his dying breath.
- Transforming Mecha: Groundain can transform into a land vehicle and Skydain can turn into a jet.
- Wrestler in All of Us: Groundain fights Fourze in a manner similar to wrestling competitors.
Black Knight
Black Knight
- Chest Blaster: Has machineguns built into the holes in his chest.
- Hero Antagonist: He initially opposes the Kamen Rider Club thanks to a misunderstanding.
- Heroic Mime: Never speaks a word.
- The Juggernaut: Nothing Fourze can throw at him bothers him too much.
XVII
XVII
Voiced by: Tsutomu Isobe
- Beam Spam: It's absolutely covered in laser turrets on its exterior. They don't help all that much when the KRC attempts to board it.
- Composite Character: In keeping with the old-school Ishinomori homages, XVII is based on Space Ironmen Kyodein's Gombess, the eponymous Daitetsujin 17, hence the name, and (possibly) the Big Bad of the latter series.
- Faceless Eye: "Brain", its central control station, includes something that looks like a tree with every branch ending in a robotic eye. One of those eyes is later used to communicate with Gentaro, explaining the station's situation to him.
- Heel–Face Turn: As it turns out, he never willingly worked for the Space Ironmen.
- Power Limiter: For the Space Ironmen. Sending the KRC after XVII was an attempt to destroy their limiters and return them to full power.
- Transforming Mecha: Capable of shifting between satellite mode and giant robot mode on command.
- Wave-Motion Gun: XVII is a satellite weapon packing a laser powerful enough to level all of Japan in one strike.
