Story

Kamen Rider Saber features a world based on fairy tales and fantasy adventures colliding with our own, centering on a conflict over the Book of Ancients – a legendary artifact that contains unparalleled powers and secrets. In ancient times, a sinister group known as Megiddo came forth to take the Book of Ancients for themselves. As a result of the conflict however, chapters of the book were scattered across the world, becoming Wonder Ride Books. A collection of heroes known as the Sword Of Logos unite to fight the evildoers and reclaim the book. The battles between both groups will throw the world into chaos - with people and places vanishing between worlds. In the midst of this, a novelist and bookstore owner called Touma Kamiyama becomes a member of the Sword Of Logos once he obtains the power to transform into Kamen Rider Saber and vows to end the battle with his own hands.
