Takanori Kikuchi As Kaoru Kino
Kaoru Kino (木野 薫, Kino Kaoru) was a surgical genius,
but a snow-mountain accident would ruin his career and claim the life of
his younger brother, Masato. The accident also left his right arm with
severe frost bite, which left surgeons no choice but to amputate and
graft the arm of his deceased brother. The incident ultimately resulted
in Kino's surgical license being revoked. From then on, Kino would
suffer psychotic episodes stemming from the traumatic event. Kino was
also one of the passengers aboard the “Akatsuki” and among those
awakened by the "Overlord of Light". Over time, his powers would
"evolve" into Another Agito. But given his unstable mental condition, he
would eventually became corrupted by his newfound power, and soon
became convinced that he alone was all that was needed to defeat the
Lords. His delusions of grandeur ultimately motivated him to try and
eliminate the real Agito. Though the actions of his brother's arm would
occasionally interfere, it wasn't until his defeat at the hands of Kamen Rider Exceed Gills that humbled Kino. From that point on, he would aid the other Riders, even after the Overlord stole his power.
He later performed a small surgery on Shoichi in attempt to remove the quill of Ericius Liquor from his body, during this Kino's admitting that he become corrupted not because of the Agito power fault, but rather his own weakness as a human being. After that Kino able to recover his power thanks to Shoichi and help the group defeat the Ericius Liquor. After the fight, Kino goes into a coffee relax time with both Majima and Ryo, and encourage Majima that he can become a Doctor before finally dying from the injuries sustained by Falco earlier. However he died with a smiling face, after dreaming of being able to save his brother during the snow-mountain accident.

Rider's Spec
As Another Agito, he is an exceptional locust-looking flawed form of
Agito similar to Gills with fantastic physical prowess. While extremely
well versed in physical combat and physically powerful, Another Agito is
less versatile than the other Riders, having only one finishing move
and no alternate forms or evolutions. When he took G3-X's handgun, it appear that he has ability to override its safety protection.
