Dr. Shinigami has the ability to assume the form of the Inhumanoid , a squid monster, which he claims is his greatest creation. Though seemingly killed in the final battle by Decade, Diend, and Momotaros using several other Riders as weapons, Shinigami resumes his Eijiro guise, who seemingly forgets ever being Dr. Shinigami to begin with. 
In the manga adaptation, Eijiro's transformation into Dr. Shinigami was played for real. Natsumi was more visibly upset and Eijiro didn't return at the end after Shinigami as Ika Devil was destroyed.
