Hironari Amano As Sakuya
Sakuya Tachibana was originally a researcher of the Humanity Foundation who
graduated from the Sazahaibu University and was selected to be the user
of Rider System 01 after Go Kiryu was found to be incompatible with the
system. By the start of the series, Tachibana begins to suffer a form of
cellular breakdown with only sealing the Undead slowing down the
process. That, combined with his feelings towards Kenzaki
being his backup when he can't manage it, Tachibana blames Karasuma for
his condition. When he attempted in vain to seal the Locust Undead,
Tachibana is forced to abduct Karasuma just prior to the Undead
attacking BOARD. Though he intended to get the answers he needs,
Karasuma was in coma and put on life support with Tachibana safeguarding
him until Hirose finds him. Though he leaves Karasuma in her care, it
only revealed that the "Karasuma" he safeguarded was only a decoy. After
his doctor and dear friend Sayoko Fukasawa relays Karasuma's message,
that his subconscious fear is causing the breakdown, Tachibana
encounters Isaka, the Peacock Undead, who personally attempts to
retrieve him for his Leangle project. After escaping Isaka, Kotaro
manages to talk Tachibana not to let his fear control him though
Tachibana denies that. He arrives to save Blade from, however Garren's
fusion rate goes down during his fight with the Trilobite Undead. After
being saved, Tachibana begs Karasuma for a means to be free of his fear,
but Karasuma say he can't.
Though Tachibana attempts to resume a normal life by dating Sayoko, the Zebra Undead forces him to reveal himself as a Rider in front to Sayoko before vainly fighting the Undead before Blade arrives to aid him. In spite of Sayoko asking him to go off with her, Tachibana turns her down. While at BOARD's original, Tachibana vainly battles the Peacock Undead, who defeats Garren and takes him with intend to have Tachibana work for him by removing of his fears with exposure to Schuld Kestner seaweed, an extinct plant that intensifies the aggressive nature of the subject. Though he became more aggressive and worked under Isaka for more of the seaweed, Tachibana was unaware of the eventual damage it would do to his nervous system. Though Sayoko warned him in vain, Tachibana shrugged it off until he learned that Isaka murdered Sayoko for meddling in his affairs, defeating the Peacock Undead and sealed him. Later, as his way of repenting for being manipulated by an Undead, Tachibana takes Mutsuki under his wing.
During the final few episodes, Kamen Rider Garren came face to face with the Category King of Diamonds and battled it out with him. The Undead told him that if he was sealed, Joker would be declared winner and that all of humanity would suffer because of his choice. Garren discarded this and answered, "I will believe in my friends." The battle ended with Garren nowhere to be found and the King Undead sealed leaving the Joker as the winner. He is found upon the arrival of the Chief telling Kenzaki that he was saved because of him.

EQUIPTMENT
Garren Buckle
Designated 'Rider System 01,' this transformation device was the first Rider System developed by B.O.A.R.D. intended as a mean to combat the Undead via the fusion of Undead DNA and human DNA. The Garren Buckle was designed for specific compatibility with the Change Stag Rouse Card and harnesses the DNA of the Stag Undead. This model utilizes the "Turn-Up" mechanism to produce a stationary transformation screen, which initiates the fusion of Undead DNA with a human to produce the Kamen Rider transformation. Coincidentally, the transformation screen itself can act as a deflective wall against assaults.
A special accessory developed by Kei Karasuma to bolster the Rider’s capabilities. The Rouse Absorber was designed to be a supplementary Rouse device to the Rider System and specialized container for the top category Rouse Cards. Its system was designed to harness the Fusion Peacock and Absorb Serpent Rouse Cards and is only compatible with those cards. Initiating either Jack Form or King Form modifies the Rouse Absorber with a stylized cover plaque, a peacock-themed plaque for Jack Form and a Prosopocoilus giraffe-themed plaque for King Form, for the card window. Though the Rouse Absorber is dubbed Garren Absorber henceforth, the modification, in either case, proves more cosmetic if anything.
Garren’s primary armament; a hi-tech gun which serves as a weapon for combat and storage unit for Rouse Cards, including Proper Blanks. It has a built-in 'rousing' technology, which enables Garren to "rouse" the sealed Undead's power to utilize personally. After activating Jack Form, the Garren Rouser gains an enhancement in the form of a blade forming on the barrel to let the weapon be used for close-range attacks.
