7The Game World launches an attack on the Real World. In front of Series/KamenRiderExAid and Series/UchuSentaiKyuranger appears the "Arena of Death" where the destruction of the Earth will be decided. Trapped in this inescapable dimension, generations of Super Sentai and Kamen Riders must engage in a Battle Royale. An unprecented battlefield of many puzzles connecting the Real and Game worlds. And then, "Those Heroes" revive... Everything is scaled up, all rules are broken! And when it seems like the real world will fall into a disaster, imagination brings forth unimaginable New Heroes!

9Tying to this movie is ''Recap/KamenRiderExAidKamenSentaiGorider'', three web episodes starring Emu and past dead riders trying to escape an amusement park.
10
11----
12!!This movie provides examples of:
13
14* ADayInTheLimelight: Amu and Naga get the most focus of the main Super Sentai teams featured. Amu is in fact the only Zyuohger that appears out of costume. Hiiro of Ex-Aid also gets a large amount of focus.
15* ActionGirl: Reflected in ''Chou Super Hero Taisen's'' Team Women.
16* ActorAllusion: When Yakumo ([=AoNinger=]) joins Emu's team, he suggests recruiting [[Series/MahouSentaiMagiranger Tsubasa Ozu]] ([=MagiYellow=]), who was established as his mentor by a ContinuityCameo in ''Ninninger'' #38, only to be joined by the identical [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters Masato Jin]] (Beet Buster), who was also played by Hiroya Matsumoto. Furthermore, the gold-colored Beet Buster fills the slot to become the yellow Ki-Rider.
17* AlternateUniverse: The Game World of ''Chou Super Hero Taisen''.
18* AlternateSelf: Of the starring heroes, only Ex-Aid (plus Brave & Snipe), the Kyurangers and the Zyuohgers are the real deal. All other heroes (and all the villains), that's including Lazer and Genm, come from the Game World.
19* BackFromTheDead:
20** [[spoiler:Kamen Rider Lazer returns in this movie, the Ex-Aid cast obviously shocked by his revival, though he appeared temporally to fight against Xevious, together with random previous long-ranged heroes.]]
21** Reflected in ''Chou Super Hero Taisen's'' Team Resurrection, whose members were previously revived or otherwise revealed to have escaped their apparent deaths.
22** The premise of the spin off Kamen Sentai Gorider is, other than Ex-aid, the other five Riders being dead. [[spoiler: The fact that Kenzaki is among them despite just being turned Undead, [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt and why he shouldn't be dead]], show he isn't actually him.]]
23* BehemothBattle: Oogumo Great Leader, piloting a red-colored Big Moraimarz Robo courtesy of [[Series/UchuSentaiKyuranger Jark Matter]], is taken down by a combination of the following: Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer Level 99 (enlarged by an Energy Item), and two versions of [=KyurenOh=] created when Shishi Red uses the Futago Kyutama to duplicate his Shishi Voyager, allowing the limb Voyagers of his eight teammates to be used all at once.
24* BetterThanABareBulb: Momotaros' appearance during the "character select" sequence lampshades the fact that he's counted as a Pink character by having Emu remark "But you're red" and Momo replying that it's pretty much entirely because of his name[[note]]"Momo" being the Japanese word for the peach[[/note]].
25* BigBad: The Game World's Shocker is led by Shocker Leader III.
26* CanonWelding: [[spoiler:Coming from the Game World are counterparts for [[Series/KamenRiderAmazons Amazons Riders Alpha, Omega and Neo]], with a Bat Amazon and [[Series/PowerRangersDinoForceBrave Neo Deboth]] among the LegionOfDoom. This movie thus cements the standalone ''Amazons'' as part of the Rider multiverse and ''Dino Force (Kyoryuger) Brave'' in ''Super Sentai'' continuity, preceeding the appearance of the Zyuohgers in their finale.]]
27* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Moreso'' than its predecessor. Doesn't help that [[Series/UchuSentaiKyuranger the]] [[Series/KamenRiderExAid recent]] [[Series/KamenRiderAmazons entries]] are already dark in their own right. Also, just like ''Ex-Aid'' and ''Amazons'', the movie runs on GreyAndGreyMorality.
28* DefeatEqualsExplosion: Exaggerated as this fate befalls all the movie's defeated villains.
29* DegradedBoss: Kamen Rider Genm Zombie Gamer Level X is bested by Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Robot Action Gamer Level 3 despite greatly outclassing him.
30* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler:This movie features the first appearance of Kamen Rider Amazon Neo before his introduction in the second season of ''Series/KamenRiderAmazons''.]]
31** [[spoiler:Raimein from ''Series/PowerRangersDinoForceBrave'' appears as part of the LegionOfDoom before the premiere of his series.]]
32* EndOfAnAge: This film serves as the final ''Super Hero Taisen'' installment to date. According to Shinichiro Shirakura in a press release tweet for ''Film/KamenRiderHeiseiGenerationsFinalBuildAndExAidWithLegendRiders'' that the Taisen series would end to pursue more "interesting" projects, that is ''Film/KamenRiderAmazonsTheLastJudgement''.
33* EvilCounterpart: In the Game World, Ex-Aid is pitted against a trio of Dark Riders, the counterparts of [[Series/KamenRiderKabuto Kabuto]], [[Series/KamenRiderDrive Drive]] and [[Series/KamenRiderGhost Ghost]].
34* FinalBattle: The Gamer Riders, the Kyurangers and the Zyuohgers, along with Riders and Sentai summoned from the ''Chou Super Hero Taisen'' world, against Shocker Leader III's army.
35* GroinAttack: Momorenger delivers one to Momotaros [[spoiler:after pretending to cower before his overpowering might, netting her a point for her team.]]
36* HijackedByGanon: The Game World's attack ultimately turns out to be from yet another incarnation of Shocker.
37* InTheNameOfTheMoon: For the Goriders.
38-->'''Emu:''' "Aka-Rider!"
39-->'''Yakumo:''' "Ao-Rider!"
40-->'''Jin:''' "Ki-Rider!"
41-->'''Kitaoka:''' "Mido-Rider!"
42-->'''Momotaros:''' "Momo-Rider!"
43-->'''All:''' "Kamen Sentai... Gorider!"
44* LadyNotAppearingInThisGame: A promotional conference for the film presented a mixed team of heroes as an example of thoe which would appear. Known as Team Legend Hero, this team was composed of Series/KamenRiderKuuga, [[Series/KamenRiderFourze Kamen Rider Meteor Storm]], Series/KamenRiderRyuki, [[Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger DragonRanger]] and [[Series/NinjaSentaiKakuranger NinjaBlack]], but they did not actually appear in the movie themselves.
45* LegionOfDoom: Shocker, from the Game World, with an army of monsters from across the histories of both ''Kamen Rider'' and ''Super Sentai''.
46* LetsYouAndHimFight: As usual for the ''Super Hero Taisen'' movies. Unlike previous examples, however, which have usually had simple "Rider vs Sentai" or "Rider vs Rider" fights, this one is a complete free-for-all - they've shown Sentai teams fighting one another!
47* LongRangeFighter: Heroes that specializes in long-ranged weapons are summoned through the Chou Super Hero Taisen game to combat Xevious.
48* MakeMyMonsterGrow: A heroic example: Ex-Aid (Maximum Gamer Level 99) uses an Energy Item provided by Hiiro to enlarge himself to the level of a ''Super Sentai'' HumongousMecha.
49* [[MassiveMultiplayerCrossover Massive Multiplayer]] CrisisCrossover
50* {{Mooks}}: As well as Shocker Combatmen, there are [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGobusters Buglars]], [[Series/ZyudenSentaiKyoryuger Zorima]], [[Series/ResshaSentaiToQger Kuros]] and [[Series/DoubutsuSentaiZyuohger Moebas]].
51* MythologyGag: Oogumo Great Leader is a humanoid spider, matching the very first MonsterOfTheWeek from the [[Series/KamenRider original series]]. He also sports the Double Riders' "insect wings" design on his back.
52* {{Ninja}}: Reflected in ''Chou Super Hero Taisen's'' Team Ninja.
53* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Within the Game World, a weakened Ex-Aid Double Action Gamer Level X is confronted by three [[EvilCounterpart Dark Riders]]. He ends up overcoming them off-screen.
54* OneWingedAngel: Shocker Leader III is the spider-themed monster, Oogumo Great Leader.
55* OriginalGeneration: Kamen Rider True Brave and Kamen Sentai Gorider.
56* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: The movie not only includes Kamen Riders and Super Sentai teams, but [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs a Sentai Team composed of Kamen Riders]]: Kamen Sentai Gorider.
57* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Inverted. [[Series/KamenRiderGaim Oren]] is the only male on the aptly-named "Team Women". [[CampGay Fans of Gaim know why.]]
58* SuperMode: During the FinalBattle, a team of Rangers and a team of Riders using these is summoned to help the heroes. The former includes Red Buster Powered Custom, Kyoryu Red Carnival, Hyper Toq-1gou, and Akaninger Chouzetsu while the latter has Kamen Rider Agito Burning Form, Kamen Rider Ryuki Survive, Kamen Rider Decade Complete Form, Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron, and Kamen Rider Ghost Mugen Damashii.
59* SuperSpeed: Reflected in ''Chou Super Hero Taisen's'' Team Highspeed.
60* WhamLine: After Emu along with his team becoming the Gorider to defeat Xevious Armada, the announcer makes this statement:
61-->'''Announcer''': Now, the bonus stage starts!\
62'''Emu''': Bonus stage?\
63'''Announcer''': [[YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle Chou]] [[HostileShowTakeover Shocker]] [[FinalBattle Taisen]]!
