Kamen Rider Odin is apparently named after "Odin" the chief god in Norse Mythology. He is a balanced Rider, relying more on magic than physical ability or firearms, although he did possess melee weapons. Odin's lack of concern towards living left him fearless, which was his most intimidating factor against the other Riders. Aside from his ability to turn back time in conjunction with Kanzaki's abilities using Time Vent, Odin had the ability to traverse time and warp to any location he choose. Even compared to Kamen Rider Knight and Ryuki in their Survive Forms, Kamen Rider Odin is the most powerful of the 13 Riders.

Role in the Story

The identity of Kamen Rider Odin is unknown. When someone transformed using the Odin Advent Deck, they were turned into a mindless puppet controlled by Shiro Kanzaki. Odin had three purposes. He could interact with the real world in ways that Shiro Kanzaki- being of the Mirror World- couldn't, such as using the Time Vent card to turn back the flow of time. He was assigned to protect the life of Yui Kanzaki at all costs. And finally, he was Shiro Kanzaki's trump card in the Rider War, created to eliminate every other Rider so that Shiro could win the Rider War and the coveted wish.


The first Odin was a homeless man whom Kanzaki handed the Advent Deck to. This Odin was destroyed by Kamen Rider Knight. The true identities of the second and third Odins are unknown, but it can be assumed that they were similar to the first Odin- innocent people turned into dolls by the Odin Deck. The second Odin was destroyed by the combined efforts of Kamen Rider Ryuki and Kamen Rider Knight. The third and last Odin was destroyed by Shiro Kanzaki himself when he realized the pointlessness of the Rider War.
