The second episode of the sixth installment of the Reiwa Kamen Rider series, Kamen Rider Gavv (airs every Sunday at 9:00 a.m. on TV Asahi), titled "Happy Zakuzakuchips," aired on the 8th.

After leaving Shoma in the first episode, the next person he meets is Sachika Amane, the energetic boss of the "Hapipare" odd jobs business. Once again, Shoma, who had collapsed on the street, is treated to a meal by Sachika and decides to help her with her work. Meanwhile, freelance writer Hanto Karakida, who is tracking the "Monsters," follows sightings on social media, getting closer to Kamen Rider Gavv. Additionally, the intentions of the Stomach family, who control the Granutes, are revealed, along with new mysteries surrounding Shoma, leading to a series of developments that keep viewers hooked.

Starting from the third episode, Shintaro Asanuma, known for his work as a scriptwriter, director, actor, and voice actor, will appear as Kenzo Suga, a mysterious Granute researcher. Although Asanuma had previously served as the narrator in the special pre-broadcast program Startup!! Kamen Rider Gavv, he will now make his appearance in the main storyline as a "Granute researcher." Viewers are eagerly anticipating how his character will interact with Shoma and others.

Additionally, the opening video debuted in the second episode for the first time. The cheerful and energetic tune "Got Boost?" by FANTASTICS accompanies a vibrant sequence with Shoma, Hanto, and Sachika dancing joyfully, while the heavy musical segments introduce members of the Stomach family, making it a must-watch sequence full of details worth seeing again and again. The opening also teases new forms of Gavv and Gochizo, who appear ahead of the main story.

Comment from Shintaro Asanuma

I am Shintaro Asanuma, and I will be playing Kenzo Suga. After portraying roles such as "a samba-loving villain," "a red hero fighting with a bomb strapped to his waist," and "a dragon inside a card," this time I’m taking on the role of a very eccentric researcher. Every shoot teaches me something new from the young talents around me, and I feel blessed to be a part of this world. I will give my all to make this an unforgettable experience for everyone, so please support us.
