仮面ライダー龍騎 Official subtitle is Masked Rider Ryuki. Ryuu normally uses a long u.
The kanji in Ryuki are "dragon" and "ride". The "ride" kanji is the first one in knight/kishi 騎士, which is probably how the American adaptation Kamen Rider Dragon Knight came up with its name.
February 3, 2002 - January 19, 2003 (50 episodes)
The first Kamen Rider series to have so many multiple Riders.
Catchphrase: "If you do not fight, you will not survive."

Trivia
- While it's not special now, at the time, it was unheard of for there to be so many Riders who fought each other in this way. There was even some fan backlash who felt Ryuki strayed too much from the standard Rider formula.
- The first Rider series to use a card theme. Is followed by Kamen Rider Blade just two years later in 2004 and Kamen Rider Decade seven years later in 2009.
