Time travel, ghost cops, and a car that talks back—this crossover's got baggage from 2005!
Shortly after Shinnosuke Tomari (Ryoma Takeuchi), Kamen Rider Drive, eradicates the Earth of the 108 Roidmudes, he is put on a special assignment to investigate paranormal activity elsewhere in the city. He heads to the temple Daitenkū-ji to speak with witnesses Akari Tsukimura (Hikaru Ohsawa) and Onari (Takayuki Yanagi), but as he is interrogating them, a Gamma appears and steals an Eyecon from the temple, prompting Takeru Tenkūji (Shun Nishime), Kamen Rider Ghost, to fight it, even though to Shinnosuke it seems that Kamen Rider Ghost is fighting no one at all as he cannot see the Gamma

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was the first theatrical 'Movie Wars' to explicitly tie its time-travel plot to both series' finales rather than operating as standalone filler.
The 2005 setting deliberately echoes Heisei Rider nostalgia while Ghost's Buddhist iconography clashes fascinatingly with Drive's tech-noir aesthetic.
