At a talk show for Choh Superhero Taisen, Ex-Aid’s producer Takahito Omori mentioned a pretty hefty tidbit about what to expect from the summer movie for Ex-Aid. Take it with a grain of salt since this translation might not be the best:

It will be the true ending. There are whispers of the similarity to Ryuki, but it’s a little different. If you continue to watch the show every week after its release, the way the movie looks will gradually change.

I should probably explain what this means. Kamen Rider Ryuki’s movie, Episode Final, took place after episode 46 of its 50 episode run. The movie provided a different turn of events than the show, mainly because it worked in some Riders who didn’t appear there and the final scene provides a much different tone than the show’s ending. I wouldn’t say it was a big deal or game-changer for the show’s plot, but it was at least a novelty concept for a movie based on a show.



How that relates to Ex-Aid’s summer movie is hard to say this early since we literally know nothing other than “true/real ending” and “like Ryuki but different”. We’ll see where things go from here, I guess. When Choh Superhero Taisen came out, there was a teaser pamphlet that includes Lazer and Genm, but we’ll have to wait and see actual magazine scans for the movie to find out if that’s relevant at all to the movie. This early on, any teaser for the summer movie amounts to “There will be a movie! Get hyped!”



The summer movie will be out on August 5th. The show will probably air episode 42 or 43 just a couple days before the movie’s premiere, depending on if any weeks are skipped. We still don’t know how many episodes there’ll be in total but Kamen Rider usually ends in the 48-50 range.
