 is a student archaeologist who transforms into . 
==Biography==
===Early Life===
He is a young man from the Fukui Prefecture who is rather optimistic, often believing that pinches and chances are sides of the same coin. He has a gigantic appetite and an unusual liking to mayonnaise, putting it on everything he eats, including doughnuts. He originally lived with his grandmother before he became a student archaeologist.
Ever since he found a fossil near a lake as a child, Nitoh dreamed of becoming an archaeologist. Though his parents approved his ambition, his grandmother did not. Because she also scolded his adventurous behavior, Nitoh grew up thinking of her as strict and mean.
===Becoming Kamen Rider Beast===
During one of his expeditions, Nitoh accidentally discovered the Beast Driver in ancient ruins , Nitoh encountered the Beast Driver and broke the seal with a horde of Ghouls at bay. Forced to become Kamen Rider Beast to defeat the monsters, Nitoh discovers that he unknowingly forged a pact with Phantom Beast Chimera and now must consume other Phantoms for his magical energies to keep the Phantom powered, as if he died, too.
Through a misunderstanding of how the Kamen Rider Wizard works when it comes to absorbing and replenishing magic power, he qualifies Haruto as his "eternal rival" when they first meet after Nitoh was attacked by Manticore under the assumption of that he was a Gate. Despite the fact that Haruto can simply use an Engage Wizard Ring to enter Nitoh's Underworld and destroy Beast Chimera, Nitoh initially refuses because his Phantom would be too strong for Kamen Rider Wizard to handle and the experience "would leave a bad taste" Nitoh later explains that, as an archaeologist, he wants to learn more about the Ghosts, the Beast Driver, and the Magician's Rings, believing that he will never again make such an important discovery as the Chimera Beast.
While he originally saw Haruto as a nuisance, he was nevertheless willing to cure him of the poison injected into him by Manticore through the use of Dolphi Mantle's powers. After the incident with Oikawa, he gradually warms up to Haruto and sees him as a rival as well as a friend. Initially homeless and having to camp in places until he got chased away, he found a permanent spot to set up his camp at the roof of a building belonging to a woman whom he had once saved. Though, he still prefers to camp in many places.
Later, Nitoh revealed to Haruto, Shunpei, and Rinko that he received Kamen Rider Beast's powers from Beast Chimera. The Beast Chimera made a contract with Nitoh, granting Nitoh his magic. In exchange, Nitoh must absorb mana by defeating Phantoms and ghouls, or he will be eaten by Beast Chimera. Unlike Haruto who is knowledgeable about how Phantoms come about and operate, Nitoh initially knows nothing other than they can take human forms and he needs to eat them to survive. Later, Haruto offers Nitoh to get rid off Beast Chimera. However, Nitoh refuses and prefers to retain his powers and the status of being both a rival and an ally to Haruto. Even when he lost his Beast Driver. Nitoh refuses to destroy Chimera, as he won't find any important discovery, like Beast Chimera.
When Nitoh attempts to end the second Sabbath, he is overpowered by Fueki. In risky gambit that could have killed him, Nitoh broke the Beast Driver to release Beast Chimera so he can devour all of the excess magical energies generated by the Sabbath to negate the ritual. In appreciation, the idea of eating not amusing, Beast Chimera spares Nitoh's life and frees him from their pact before leaving. Despite being a normal human again, Nitoh aided Haruto during the final battle. Once the Phantoms are finally defeated, taking Yuzuru as an apprentice, Nitoh decides to find Beast Chimera to learn more about the ancient Phantom.

==Personality==
Unlike Haruto, Nitoh is a much lighter character. He contrasts Haruto by being much more sensible and open to the others. Nitoh often places mayonnaise on all food, claiming that mayonnaise is the tastiest food. He even teases Haruto by placing mayonnaise on his doughnut; something that Haruto dislikes. Despite his lighter personality, Nitoh is a very stubborn guy and never listens to the others. He usually says "Don't say it!", to cut his conversation with the others. This can cause trouble for him and others, as in the first few episodes he appears in he often cuts off any conversation about Phantoms and Gates. He also doesn't take battles very seriously until the last few episodes, particularly after Yuzuru was kidnapped by White Wizard. Despite claiming Haruto as a rival in the first place, Nitoh, in the end, helps Haruto in exterminating Phantoms. Nitoh is also easily or usually swayed by girls, like Rinko and Mayu. Despite this, his habit only happens for one person at a time.

==Notes==
*Nitoh is the second individual to be mistaken as a Gate after being attacked by Phantoms, with the first being Satoshi Ishii from episodes 14 and 15.
*According to Nitoh's actor, he wanted to call the Phantoms "Yummies" because of how Nitoh eats their mana, but the director told him no, in order to avoid confusion with the monsters from Kamen Rider OOO.
*Similar to how Wizard's different Styles each involve a different mystical element, Beast's different Mantles involve different biomes of the Earth.
**Falco: Sky
**Chameleo: Forest
**Buffa: Land
**Dolphi: Sea
*Beast is the only Wizard Rider that has the standard compound eyes of the Kamen Riders, while the other Wizard Riders have rarely-used visor eyes, shaped like jewels.
*In the end of Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, Nitoh is shown to have plucked some of the fruit of Helheim for Beast Chimera. However Nitoh never made such an indication to have been tempted to eat a fruit. This may indicate that if one wears any transformation Driver, then that temptation will never come.
*There would be a running gag in the series where between him and the two doughnut shop owners where he would put mayonnaise on the owner's new creations despite being called not to.
