The are fictional characters in the Tokusatsu production of the TV series Kamen Rider Ryuki . They mimicries of the 13 Kamen Riders. Two Alternative suits were known to have been produced - a prototype called Alternative and a production model called . Alternative and Alternative Zero's true identities were, respectively Hajime Nakamura and Hideyuki Kagawa. Nakamura was played by Jun'ichi Mizuno and Kagawa was played by Satoshi Jinbo. Along with Kamen Rider Tiger , the two were fighting to close the Mirror World and opposed Kanzaki's plan of a Rider war. The two suits were identical except for a few minor differences. Alternative Zero was decorated with silver stripes labeled "Trial Prototype-00" on both sides of the body. Alternative Zero also had silver cables on its suit while Alternative had black cables. Because they are modeled after crickets, the Alternatives resemble the older Kamen Riders such as Kamen Rider V3 and Kamen Rider Super-1 in terms of appearance. Alternative Zero and Alternative were both killed the same way, Tiger betrayed them and destroyed their decks, causing them to dissolve in the Mirror World. BIOGRAPHY (ALTERNATE ZERO) Prior to the Kanzaki's experimen, Professor Hideyuki Kagawa wandered into Room 401 one day and happened to see Shiro Kanzaki's notebook lying on the floor. He scooped it up, opened it and gave every intriguing page a once-over before Kanzaki snatched it from him. However, Professor Kagawa has a photographic memory. After learning the severe nature of Kanzaki's experiments, Kagawa began to duplicate Kanzaki's work in order to close the Mirror World. To that end, formed a relationship with Satoru Tojo and Nakamura. Kagawa eventually created the Alternates. Kawaga was a married man, with a young son named Yuuta. Though he deeply loved both his wife and son, he did not let Kanzaki threatening their lives deter him from his course to close the Mirror World. Unfortunately, he died for it at the hands of a Satoru, who did it based on the man's word that a hero must sacrfice the one they love. Satoru would come to regret his deed in the name of heroism. BIOGRAPHY (ALTERNATE) Hajime Nakamura was originally one of the staff at Lab #401, but he was sick the day Kanazki began his experiments. Upon learning what occurred, Nakamura never forgive Kanzaki, or his sister, for the events that occurred. Hajime Nakamura studiously avoided any questions about the lab, Kanzaki and what happened there, when encountered by Yui and later Reiko. Nakamura eventually joined Professor Kagawa to stop the Rider War as Alternate. However, Nakamura's reasons were for vengeance and he was thus killed by Satoru.

ADVENT CARDS Unlike the other Advent Cards, Alternative and Alternative Zero's cards are given the additional title, "Alchemy System" at the back. Also, there are green characters on the cards, which may give information to the Visor on what kind of card is swiped. Because their equipment was designed by themselves, the V-belts' and Vent Decks' appearances were different than the other Riders. Slash Visor The card reader of Alternative Zero/Alternative was mounted on his right forearm. The visor voice was different than that of the real Riders, the voice was female. Another difference was how the cards were used with the visor. The cards were swiped (similar to the ''rousers'' in Kamen Rider Blade ), which burned up and disappeared when the card was vented.
