 was the third CEO of Genm Corp.. His true identity was the from the game Toki Meki Crisis, transforming into it by using the Gashacon Bugvisor.
As recorded by CR, Lovelica is part of the High Tier of Bugsters within Kamen Rider Chronicle alongside Para-DX and Graphite. 
==History==
===Background===
Lovelica is born from the date of the Genm Corp. game, Toki Meki Crisis, conceived by Kuroto Dan. As a Bugster, Lovelica's origin is traced to the Y2K bug, which left what would be known as the Bugster Virus on the younger Dan's computer shortly following New Year's 2000. Secretly incubating the virus by infecting the young Emu Hojo with it, Kuroto Dan would arrange for its matured form to be extracted by Michihiko Zaizen ten years later.
After Lovelica became a Perfected Bugster and assumed a human form, he took on the name "Ren Amagasaki" and also became the third CEO of Genm Corp. following the disappearance of Kuroto Dan. Under his watch, an in-house competition was held, led by Tsukuru Koboshi and his development team, to create a new game to save the company.
===Kamen Rider Chronicle===
Ren Amagasaki arrives at CR and meets Asuna Karino as he explains one of the Game Illness patients, Sora Iwamoto, and her band were auditioning to play the theme song for Genm Corp.'s newest game, lamenting that the company may be forced into bankruptcy if the game is delayed. Not wanting to see her "birthplace" shut down, Asuna reveals her true identity as Poppy Pipopapo, a Bugster from Genm Corp.'s DoReMiFa Beat game. He visits Sora, but tells her that her band wasn't selected; the stress from this causes Motors to reemerge. As Poppy tries to leave, Amagasaki says he wants her to sing the new game's theme song and she complies with singing PEOPLE GAME. It is later revealed to be his strategy to brainwash Poppy while she is separated from the Kamen Riders. Revealing himself and the brainwashed Poppy to Parado and their fellow Bugsters, Amagasaki witnesses the completion of the Kamen Rider Chronicle Gashat.
Sometime afterwards, Kamen Rider Chronicle was released to the public much to the surprise of the Kamen Riders regarding the impromptu release of the game. Hiiro Kagami, Taiga Hanaya, and Nico Saiba went to confront Amagasaki over this, but to no avail.
As customers of the game began to decline following the Ministry of Health's warning, Amagasaki made the public announcement that if there's a victor who clears Kamen Rider Chronicle, all the disappeared victims of the Bugster Virus will be revived. He even transformed into a Ride-Player likely for safety appeal. When confronted by the Doctor Riders, Amagasaki revealed his true nature as the Lovelica Bugster and accompanied by his entourage, the Lovely Girls. While the Kamen Riders had a hard time making a hit against the Bugster due to Toki Meki Crisis' effect that makes him invulnerable to violent attacks, Nico's insults were enough to literally hurt him and caused him to withdraw.
Following his humiliation, Lovelica had remained hidden from his fellow Bugsters as he was trying to recuperate the damage received from Nico's insults. During that time, Ex-Aid was able to free Poppy from Lovelica's brainwashing.
With the low and mid tier Bugsters all bested, Lovelica, Graphite and Para-DX remained as the high tier Bugster left of the game, thus a confrontation against the Doctor Rider trio, now joined by the revived Genm, was inevitable. Haima Kagami was also infected by Lovelica's infection after becoming a Ride-Player himself. After Masamune Dan had finally been released from prison after being acquitted for his crimes, Amagasaki was angered that the original founder reclaimed his office from him and warned him not to use the Gashacon Bugvisor II as Kuroto created it to be used by Bugsters.
===Demise===
Alongside Graphite Level 99 and Para-DX, Lovelica faced the four Kamen Riders in a final confrontation. Engaging Brave Fantasy Gamer once more, Lovelica summoned his Lovely Girls to support him. Seeing Brave overpowered by Lovelica's charm, after Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer destroy the Lovely Girls to allow Lovelica to be rendered susceptible to Brave's attacks. However, the battle was interupted by the arrival of Masamune Dan, revealing his true intentions to take over Kamen Rider Chronicle. Masamune uses the Gashacon Bugvisor II to become Kamen Rider Cronus and displays his Pause ability to terminate Lovelica in battle, remarking that Toki Meki Crisis is "discontinued". This shocked Parado and Graphite as Lovelica was incapable regenerating due to him being destroyed while time stopped, meaning Lovelica is permamently dead.

===Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Trilogy: Another Ending===
Lovelica was revived by Kuroto Dan after he escaped from CR's custody and the Bugster had brainwashed Saki Momose to his disposal. He appears himself to Hiiro Kagami and declares that Saki is now his. Although Lovelica against him as Brave Taddle Fantasy, his advantage of being unable to be harmed allowed him to emerge victorious. He is also revealed to be tied with Saki's lifeline meaning if he is destroyed in battle, Saki's data will erase once more. Lovelica is also the target to Taiga Hanaya due to his infection affecting Luke Kidman. At night, Taiga transformed into Kamen Rider Cronus and use Pause to free Saki from Lovelica's influence. After defeating Cronus in battle, Lovelica was finally vanquished by Brave Legacy Gamer Level 100.
