| In flashbacks, the Presenter sent the Core Switch to Earth, where Rokuro and Gamou found it and reverse-engineered the Fourze Driver and Zodiarts Switches from it respectively before they fell out with each other. In the present, Kengo gathers the Kamen Rider Club to reveal that he is a cosmic energy construct created by the Core Switch called a "Core Child" along with his connection to Rokuro and Gamou. Furthermore, he was sent to study humanity and must now return to the Presenter. Over Gentaro's objections and his desire to stay, Kengo prepares to depart with Gentaro's help. Before he can do so, an injured Ohsugi arrives to warn them that Tatsugami has captured the others, demanding the Core Switch in return on Gamou's behalf. When Kengo explains himself to Gamou, saying that only he can reach the Presenter, a furious Gamou tries to kill him. However, Kengo uses his cosmic powers to survive until Gentaro arrives to fend off Gamou so Kengo can rescue his friends. Once they are safe, Kengo and Ryusei join the fight.

| After killing Kengo, Gamou leaves to renew his plans while Gentaro and Ryusei regroup with their friends. Yuki finds a letter Kengo gave her during his rescue, in which he explains his gratitude towards the Kamen Rider Club and that they should not hate Gamou, but show him the error of his ways instead. The next day, Gamou publicly announces his plans. The Riders arrive to stop him, with Ryusei fighting and eventually killing Tatsugami while Gentaro leads the club in telling Gamou how he and AGHS made them better people before defeating him and offering his friendship. Initially astonished, Gamou eventually accepts, but gradually starts to dissolve into stardust. Realizing he is suffering from a side effect of his exposure to cosmic energy, he urges Gentaro to continue his dream for him before leaving to die peacefully. As the new school term begins, Gentaro and Yuki are shocked to find Kengo alive. He reveals Gamou restored the Core Switch and used it to make him human. As Ryusei transfers back to Subaruboshi High, Gentaro welcomes Ran and Haru into the newly developed Space Kamen Rider Club with the goal of befriending the Presenter and everyone else in the universe. |||||
