 * Butt Monkey: Got his (and his clique's) ass handed to him twice by Gentaro in a Curb Stomp Battle while the latter was seeking information.
 * Japanese Delinquents: The real thing. Gentaro just styled himself as one; otherwise he's a bona fide Nice Guy.
 * Jerk With a Heart of Gold: In Episode 7, he shows JK Teruhiko's local hangout and warns him that the latter was pretty dangerous.

Yuri Kuramochi
Part of Ritsuko's posse, she joins to get revenge on the swim team. Gets revenge on them by using 'powers' to control the water.

 * Who's Laughing Now?

Masami Okamura
The other member of Ritsuko's posse. She was originally part of the cheerleading club, but Miu kicked her off due to being more into dating the jocks. She wants revenge on her ex-boyfriend for dumping her.

 * Hair Decorations
 * Playing With Fire: Or at least how the Altar Zodiarts made it look like for her.

A second-year girl who first appears as JK's pick for a potential competitor against Miu. She reappears in #7-8 and #12.


 * Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: In Episode 3, she was seemingly willing to go out and play along with Gentaro's plan in joining the Queen Festival. 5 episodes later we see her dismissing Gentaro as a freak when she breaks up with Shun.
 * Kawaiiko: Plays it up by ending all her sentences with -ishi and so on.

Mari Yamamoto
"Live Actress: Natsumi Ishibashi"

A member of the Photography Club and Miura's girlfriend. Unlike all other couples on the show, she remains faithful to him in spite of his troubles.


 * Camera Fiend: A positive example, she's out to document every spirited smile she sees.
 * Genki Girl: She could rival Yuki for pure energy in her.
 * The Power of Love:
 * Tender Tears: As if she's taking the Retraux approach as well by invoking soap opera heroines of The Seventies.

President of the Glee Club. He's so far one of the few students outside of the Zodiarts who knows about Gentaro being Fourze.

"Live Actress: Yuki Kato"

Kengo's childhood friend and a member of the Track and Field Team, hoping to top an upcoming pentathlon tryout.


 * Childhood Friends: With Kengo.
 * Huge Schoolgirl
 * No Guy Wants an Amazon: Doesn't help that other members of the Track and Field Team tease her about this (as well as her stature).
 * Not So Different: Not only does she mirror Yuki's "Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl" relationship with Kengo, but running in a bad stance has led to her developing a chronic condition.
 * Red Herring: There's a lot of heavy-handed hinting that Rumi is the Dragon Zodiarts.

Misa Toriizaki
"Live Actress: Kaya Asano"

A student who's into ballet and leads the Cygnus Fan Club/Cult, the Ugly Ducklings. She grades the actions of the other members with a "plus or minus" system.


 * Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Seems like a Nice Girl all dressed in white who wants to spread the goodwill of Cygnus. Then in Episode 24, she ditches white for black, becomes a total bitch and.

 * She even does this to Ohsugi, a teacher.
 * Catch Phrase: "I'll protect you, Haru!" is pretty much what she said the most in her arc.
 * Childhood Friends: With Haru. Unfortunately, her insistence of this makes Haru more and more mad once he got that switch.
 * Hidden Depths: She hates seniors because a few of them back in her old school made fun of Haru and tossed his charm bracelet into the pool. She stated that she'd never trust them again after that.
 * Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Do you wanna know why your friend gets so mad?
 * Only Friend: Invoked. She doesn't believe that someone who wants to be your friend can be your friend, so she insists to Haru that he trust her. Unfortunately, this makes her very stupid and slow to realize that maybe Haru doesn't want to have her always coming to save him.
 * Unwitting Instigator of Doom: see Nice Job Breaking It, Hero; Haru wanted to accept Gentaro's friendship, except she got in the way because she's the one who didn't trust Gentaro.

Yukina Takamura
"Live Actress: Mika Akizuki"

A classmate of Gentaro who has a massive crush on him, wanting to be with him alone during the School Field Trip.


 * Better As Friends: After seeing Gentaro fight Libra (untransformed since she took the Fourze Driver), and Yuki gives her a speech about Gentaro, she returns the Driver and only asks one thing in return: for the two to have a photograph together with big smiles.
 * Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: While not as profound as her other fellow female students (ie Rumi, Yayoi, etc.), she shows hints of this when she threatens to confiscates Yuki's Hayabusa puppet if she doesn't do what she says.
 * She goes as far as pushing a fellow shopkeeper away and berating Yuki in her kimono because they needed to make her outshine and thus forces Yuki to dress up as a fishmonger. Not to mention force Gentaro to give her a piggy back ride, make him drive her around in a rickshaw and other things.
 * To make it worse?
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: She loves Gentaro, and will not let anyone get inbetween the two.
 * #34 gives more insight;
 * Distaff Counterpart: She's basically Gentaro with a greatly decreased sense of empathy.
 * Locked Out of the Loop: Since she's in the same group as Yuki, Gentaro and Ryusei, she usually has to be pushed out of the way else she finds out about the existence of Kamen Riders.
 * Not So Different: A Large Ham and Genki Girl who shares the same enthusiasm as Gentaro, and even does his Character Tic of hitting his chest with a fist twice before extending it out. The only problem? She doesn't want to make friends, but rather wants to be alone with Gentaro to the point that she'll be a complete Bitch in Sheep's Clothing and ensure that the two are completely alone.
 * #34 shows that
 * Slapstick Knows No Gender: Some of the actions Ryusei uses to keep her out of the loop, like the caltrops.
 * Too Dumb to Live: Let's see: your so-called boyfriend's the guy saving the school from monsters, you took his means of fighting them and have met up with said monster (Libra Zodiarts) all so you can get this guy to relax and enjoy his field trip. What are you going to do? Refuse to give the Fourze Driver to Gentaro and get yourself fucking killed. Good idea.

Sarina Sonoda
"Live Actress: Yuka Konan"

Gentaro's first homeroom teacher, a youthful and beautiful young woman who teaches classical literature. The students consider her cute, and she's the object of Chuta's unwanted affections. .


 * Beneath the Mask: Despite her popularity and kind demeanor, she can occasionally be heard complaining about the selfishness of her students behind their backs (especially Gentaro "delinquency" and Kengo's standoffishness).
 * Character Tic: Sucks her teeth in Episode 17, to add to her growing dislike of Gentaro.
 * Doubles as a Mythology Gag to Kamen Rider Double, since this was Wakana Sonozaki's tic in that series.
 * Embarrassing Nickname: Hayami always calls her "My little pup" (Koinu-chan in Japanese).
 * Hair Decorations: Hardly appropriate for a high school teacher,.
 * Hidden Depths:
 * Hot Teacher:
 * Meaningful Name/Significant Anagram: The syllables of her name can be arranged as.
 * Nice Girl: Seems to be the nicest faculty in Amanogawa.
 * This may still be a double subversion if you compare her treating Libra with

""TEEEESTO!""
 * Abhorrent Admirer: To Sonoda. His crush for her was also.
 * Butt Monkey: After finishing his speech, he turns around to find the people he's speaking to have vanished.
 * Then there's that time where he got run over by many of the female students and mothers in Episode 13.
 * Character Tic: He usually snaps his suspenders.
 * Chewing the Scenery: In Episode 18...

"Ohsugi: (to their respective owners) KISARAGI! JOJIMA! UTAHOSHI!...(turns to Ryusei) Sakuta?"
 * The one at the start of #29 beats that one to a pulp.
 * Dangerously Genre Savvy: The reason why he allows the prom to go on after a Zodiarts attack was due to him knowing that this happens every day. He also knew something was suspicious around Gentaro, Yuki, Kengo and Ryusei.
 * He might show this later in the series, seeing that he's the only one who knows that the teachers have a role with these Zodiarts.
 * Heroic BSOD: Observing Hayami talking to Sonoda-and subsequently finding out that he has a nickname to her-made him go into complete shock. Happens again when Sonoda . Played for Laughs, of course.
 * Irony: The Butt Monkey out of the faculty.
 * It's no longer the case as of #30 however.
 * Remember his belief about how students and teachers must never become friends?
 * Jerkass: Towards the students, especially Gentaro, since it is his belief that teachers and students shouldn't be friends.
 * More specifically he hates Gentaro because he made Sonoda-sensei "leave the school" (he didn't) and is too stubborn to listen to Gentaro about it.
 * Jerk With a Heart of Gold: After seeing Gentaro fight Musca in #30, he changes his attitude.
 * Large Ham

 * Not So Harmless: See Dangerously Genre Savvy.
 * Only Sane Man:
 * Even more so now that
 * Professional Butt-Kisser: Behaves this way towards Miu and Daimonji. Keeping the Kamen Rider Club a secret has allowed Shun to maintain some clout over him in Episode 11 (or maybe Ohsugi's just that gullible).
 * Averted in #30 as he actually tries to escape them when

 * Say My Name: In #32:

Takashi Sakate
"Live Actor: Satoshi Jinbo"

A notoriously ruthless teacher responsible for detention classes. Has a great hatred for delinquents due to him having trouble with his own son at home.


 * Casting Gag: Satoshi Jinbo once played a teacher on a previous Kamen Rider show: Ryuki's Hideyuki Kagawa/Alternative Zero.
 * The Dreaded: In Episode 7 alone he even makes Gentaro cower before him.
 * Drill Sergeant Nasty: Of the academic kind. He spares nobody - not even Shun.
 * Four Eyes, Zero Soul: Initially. With the realization that his strictness drove his son to madness, it's safe to say he's getting better.
 * Gratuitous English: "Bad boy." (to Gentaro)
 * Ironic Echo: Gentaro repeats these words when he asks if Sakate's son was also one of these.
 * Hidden Depths: The reason he's so ruthless to delinquents is because of his own past with his son...which comes back to bite him.
 * My God, What Have I Done?: His son became a Zodiarts because he was such a hardass. Discovering this had a big effect on him. This is exemplified by him repeatedly whispering Teruhiko's name while the latter is in a coma, showing that Satake still loved his son. Once Teruhiko is freed from the Zodiarts Switch, you can see the look of relief on his face as he hugs his son.
 * Pet the Dog: Perhaps as thanks for helping his son, he gives Gentaro a 50% (aka a passing grade) on the test.
 * Sadist Teacher: At first; with the revelation of his son being Hound Zodiarts, he'll most likely get better.
 * Simple Stick: Carries one as part of his usual getup.

Kouhei Hayami
"Live Actor: Kousei Amano"

 * Foreshadowing: His debut episode hints heavily that he is the Scorpion Zodiarts, as he has the same speech patterns and body language..

 * Meaningful Name: His first name literally translates as "fairness; impartial; justice";
 * Perpetual Smiler: He carries a smile on his face at all times.

Haruka Utsugi
"Live Actress: Nao Nagasawa"

Sonoda's replacement as homeroom teacher for Class 2B. She despises her job and would rather make a living on kickboxing then teaching students.
