Important things that happened

• Date Akira is the man wielding Kamen Rider Birth. His job is to gather 100 million Cell Medals for money.

• Birth uses Cell Medals as its power source compared to OOO who uses Core Medals. The Cell Medals are used to create gear for Birth like Drill and Crane on his right arm and also used as bullets for the Birth Gun.

• The Yummy splits into two which is a first in the series. The meaning behind it is that Shiratori Rie had a second desire.

• The Medal Holder makes its appearance in the TV series. It was a gift that Hina gave to Ankh. It was first shown in Movie Taisen Core.
