Kamen Rider Amazons

is a Japanese tokusatsu web-drama serving as a reboot of Kamen Rider Amazon as well as to commemorate the franchise's project. All 13-episodes of the first season released on Amazon Prime Video on April 1, 2016, with an edited broadcast premiering weekly on and that July. All 13-episodes of the second season released on Prime on April 7, 2017, which was then followed by an epilogue film Kamen Rider Amazons: The Last Judgement, which premiered in Japan on May 19, 2018 with no international release confirmed as of yet.
The show was also distributed internationally as Amazon Riders, with the first and second seasons being released on April 19, 2018 and September 21, 2018 respectively on each country's respective Prime libraries. Both seasons were removed from the American catalog on April 6, 2023, most likely due to an expired contract between Toei and Amazon with no word on any potential renewal of the license. 
The catchphrase for season 1 is "Open Your Amazons", while it was changed to for its television broadcast. For season 2, the catchphrase is .
==Production==
Following the Kamen Rider 1 movie, Amazons was announced in one of the 2016 March Televi-kun magazine pages and later confirmed on March 18, 2016. It changed most of the settings from the original Amazon and doesn't interfere or alter continuity with anything of the recently airing TV series. With the legendary staffs and strongest action teams who produced the Heisei Riders, Amazon is fully reborn in a modern, darker style.
==Continuity and Placement==
*It is established that through the appearances of a version of the three Amazon Riders in Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Chou Super Hero Taisen, the show takes place in its own parallel world within the greater Rider multiverse.https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DbjEcEWVwAAi0sl.jpg Additionally, a Bat Amazon appeared as a member of Shocker's Game World army.
==Plot==
===Season 1 (Awakening)===
The world is filled by thousands of monsters named Amazons, and the company of Nozama Pharmacy has hired a special team to hunt down and eliminate them. One day, the team were hunting down two Amazon riders, Amazon Riders Alpha and Omega, with their transformers being Jin and Haruka respectfully.
Haruka eventually joined the team to hunt down the Amazons. However, when they were trying to eliminate a group of Amazons that were hiding inside a restaurant, Haruka eventually divided his opinion with the group when he found out that those Amazons have no intention to harm humans. The restaurant has also changed Mamoru, one of the members in the team. He eventually started to have interests in eating human beings. After Jin and Haruka defeated Sigma, Nozama Pharmacy decided to launch a special plan named Tlaloc, a plan to kill all Amazons. Mamoru was in a struggle during Tlaloc because he previously ate one of his friends, Kazuya Mizaki's arm. Haruka eventually rescued him and both of them escaped.
===Season 2 (Reincarnation)===
In the past, a massive spill occurred at the Amazon experimental lab. Most of the survivors were destroyed, hot-blooded young men enjoyed hunting Amazons and the experiment seemed to be drawing to an end. Far than ending, however, it was entering a completely new phase. The number of cases of ordinary people turning into Amazon without warning was rising. The government formed a new extermination unit to assassinate people who had turned into Amazon secretly and struggled to hide the truth.
Chihiro/Kamen Rider Amazon Neo is a loner, a boy raised by Amazons who hates them but must suppress his cannibalistic urges. One day he meets Iyu, an Amazon girl who transforms into Crow Amazon and vanquishes Amazon enemies with her awesome fighting power. Chihiro is amazed at his first glance of Iyu, because she’s the first human he’s met without thinking, “I want to eat her.” She’s the first opponent he’s ever wanted to get close to, but Chihiro is unaware of her story. Iyu is a “Sigma Type Amazons” a biological weapon brought back to life after her parents turned to Amazons and killed her.

==Notes==
*Next-episode previews for Season 1 are titled "NEXT HUNT", and "LAST HUNT" for final episodes. In Season 2, they are changed into "NEXT TARGET" and "LAST TARGET" respectively.
*Due to its violence and dark premise, the show is targeted towards the adult demographic. Because the series is written by Yasuko Kobayashi, some fans view this series as an attempt by Toei to compete/capitalize on the recent return of the GARO franchise.
**Later, Kamen Rider Black Sun was released in the same vein. 
*It is the only entry in the Kamen Rider franchise to get a second season of the same show with the same title.
*The international release was announced to air in September 2016 as the first round of the exportation of the Amazon Prime Original Videos, but wasn't actually released until April 19, 2018.
*The description for the international release of the series mistakenly calls this series "the fourth production in the Kamen Rider series" in their synopsis, presumably referring to 1974's Kamen Rider Amazon.
*This is one of the few Heisei series to not have Kyoritz present to provide lighting equipment, due to the company already working on Kamen Rider Ghost at the time.
