A startup program for the new series "Kamen Rider Gavv," which will begin airing on September 1st, was streamed online on August 11th.

Additional staff information has also been released. It has been revealed that Junko Komura will be responsible for the script. Teruaki Sugihara, who will direct the pilot, commented, "The theme of this Kamen Rider is candy. We are working to make the visuals colorful and create a pop feel." The two have previously teamed up for "Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger." Director Sugihara further added, "The story begins with the characters searching for their place, but it's unmistakably Kamen Rider. The intense parts are portrayed intensely, while the softer parts have Junko Komura's signature light, cute touch. The balance is exquisite."

In addition, Yusuke Hino has been cast as Hanto Karikida, the second rider known as Kamen Rider Valen, and Nozomi Miyabe as Sachika Amane, the president of the odd-job agency 'Hapipare,' who meets the protagonist Shoma (played by Hidekazu Chinen).

The enemies that Kamen Rider Gavv and his allies will face have also been revealed. The monstrous creatures, known as Granute, abduct humans, and it has been revealed that they are being sent into the human world by the Stomach family. Takashi Tsukamoto will play the eldest son, Rango Stomach, Machi Chitose will play the eldest daughter, Grotta Stomach, Ryo Takizawa will play the second son, Nierve Stomach, Honoka Kawasaki will play the second daughter, the twin Sheeta Stomach, and Ruito Koga will play the third son, Jeep Stomach.
