Please watch in a well-lit room a safe distance from the screen.

The nightmare scenario is just one hour away.

Nem, the national celebrity who's the face of countless advertisements,

was kidnapped by a heartless crime syndicate,

who demanded the ransom be crowdfunded by people throughout the country.

The life of National Beauty Nem

The life of National Beauty Nem

Her current location has not yet been determined.

Your mission is to save the target.

Will our national nightmare come true?

Oh, Nem...

How about I take those tears of yours away?

Time's up.

We reached ten billion in just one week!

The people really do love you!

But if you think you're getting out of this alive, you'd be wrong.

We'll get our hands on ten billion, and you get to die.

Can you imagine a better finale?!

Give everyone their money back!

Whatever. Kill her.

Who are you supposed to be?

An agent of the Secret Defense Organization: CODE.

Uh, what...?

Stupid cowlick! Stay in place already!

This is Code Number: 7, starting the mission.

OK. Good Luck.

You're safe now.

Oh, thank you so much!

But, what shall I call you?

It's Code Number: 7.

Just an agent with no name of my own.

Oh, Seven!

Hey, wake up already!

About time you woke up, dummy!

What happened to 'I'll make breakfast today?"

And look! You're supposed to hang dry this!

Man! I just saved Nem, and it was getting good...

I mean, I wish I could do what you do...

HALF-PRICE

HALF-PRICE

Every night you dream about being a secret agent...

And you said they're lucid dreams, right?

It would be great to enjoy dreams, knowing that's what they were.

If only I could control real life so easily...

They're still just dreams, though.

I think I'd be so great at helping people, though.

I wish I could get a job where I...

Please don't.

Minami?

Uh, sorry.

I mean... let's have dreams stay being dreams, okay?

Okay.

Even so...

I've gotta find a way to pull my weight for Minami.

Chin up!

Right!

Don't be satisfied with dreaming.

Make those dreams come true!

Jump!

True that...

Okay then!

Can you do it? Let's find out!

Wow! A bunny!

Yorozu Baku?

Coming.

Be back in a second.

What kind of work are you looking for?

Agent work.

I'm sorry?

Huh?

Oh! Uh, I meant...

I'd like a job where I can help people.

Well, helping others is the point of a job...

How about I get you a new one?

What do you think of this?

Kaede...? Kaede?!

Kaede! Where did you go, Kaede?!

Don't tell me...

Alright then. I can do this.

Get away from him!

Now, let's make our nightmare come true.

Hey, hey, hey now!

Stop right there!

Hey! Hey!

Hang in there! Hey!

Someone! Call an ambulance!

Are you alri—

They say you were hit by a car while trying to save a little girl...

Is that true?

I thought I could pull it off in real life, since I can in my dreams...

That's why I keep telling you to have your dreams stay dreams!

You've got world-class bad luck, remember?

Your fate is written in the stars... the gods have given up on you!

That's a harsh way to say it...

Even so...

What's the point of dreams if they can never come true...?

You're still alive after all those close calls.

Isn't that enough to be happy about?

I'll stop at home to get your things.

Coming through.

Ma'am.

Heck of a way to start your first day, huh?

It's fine. Just part of the job.

Was it an accident?

Yeah.

But there was no driver.

No driver? Is that possible?

You just got here, so I realize you wouldn't get it,

but the world's full of these "Black Cases"...

Black Case Investigation Report

From Assistant Inspector, Judicial Police Fujimi

Mysterious "Black Cases" have been confirmed in multiple locations, but remain unsolved. 911 cases have been reported since the year of 2000. The rate has rapidly documented since then.

strange incidents with no known explanation.

Mysterious deaths,

disappearances...

All manifested in a variety of ways.

If the Public Security Bureau is looking into this,

then they must represent a serious threat to national security.

Good bet.

We already have a clue to what's causing the Black Cases.

Beings that appear in people's dreams while they sleep...

Yep. Invaders from our worst dreams...

The Nightmares.

Baku Yorozu

What are you?!

Someone...

Someone help me!

Why isn't anyone here?!

Seems like you're afraid to die.

What's going on?

I'm in my room?

Minami!

What the...

Nem?

Help me!

Why not keep running?

Everything's just too absurd to be real.

I was going to catch on eventually.

I'm dreaming.

I dozed off at some point.

Which means there's nothing to be scared of.

Because I'm Code Number: 7, the unstoppable agent.

Why? This is a lucid dream...

It's supposed to go the way I want it to!

That's always been your delusion.

I'll turn it into a nightmare.

This can't be...!

The thoughts always been there, in the depths of your subconscious...

You'll never make your dreams come true.

You're wrong!

You don't have the power to save people.

No...

Mr. Yorozu? Can you hear me?

What's his status?

He's in cardiac arrest.

- He's flat lining. Bag him. - Secure the bed!

You're...

... Completely helpless.

You can't save anyone.

It's time to face...

The ultimate nightmare.

"You're still alive after all those close calls."

"Isn't that enough to be happy about?"

And yet... I'm still alive.

Alive, but with no aspirations in life...

Can't say you're wrong.

But still... at least in my own mind...

It's okay to make my dreams come true the way I want them, right?

That's nothing more than escapism.

You're afraid of living in reality.

You don't get to decide that for me...

I'm the one who...

knows my mind better than anyone else.

Where am I?

You've come a Iong way.

That voice...

Commander Zero?!

This place is your subconscious mind.

Make your dream come true.

Good luck.

You can't stop this nightmare.

Save the target.

That's my mission.

I’m the unstoppable agent, after all.

Impact!

Awaken! Awaken!

I'm on it.

Transform!

Good Morning! Rider!

Ze-Ze-Zeztz!

Impact!

Let's start the mission.

I wish you'd fall in line already...

My dreams... are mine alone!

What?!

Fade away.

Impact! Banish!!

Ze-Ze-Zeztz!

Mission complete.

Seven!

Nem!

I'm so glad you're safe.

It was just a dream, huh?

Baku!

That was some nightmare...

But y'know... I still helped someone.

When will you wake up, you dummy!

I simply can't wrap my head around this.

The Nightmares are real.

If you don't believe me, leave.

Fine by me.

There's something only the mind knows...

When dreams drift off to sleep...

the world awakens to a nightmare.

What is that?

Good morning, Code number: 7

It wasn't just a dream?!

Your next mission.

This is a work of fiction

Next time on Kamen Rider Zeztz:

Wanted criminal Baku Yorozu, you're under arrest.

In his next dream, he's on the run!?

Why am I under arrest?!

Infiltrate the dreams of others,

and stop the Nightmares' bad dreams before they come to pass.

Our duty as police officers is to solve crimes that actually happen!

I'm gonna blow everything up.

Can the bomber dream be stopped ?

I've gotta stop the bomber, or else they'll be in danger!

When the door to one's mind opens, the nightmares begin.

Let's start the mission.
