Portrayed by: Hyuga Takashi

Debuts as Imperer in Ep 40 of Kamen Rider Ryuki. First appears as Sano in Ep 41.

Mitsuru Sano is a young man who becomes Kamen Rider Imperer after agreeing to a contract with Kanzaki Shirou.

Sano participates in the Rider War as Imperer to break free from minimum wage work and live a happy, wealthy life.
To achieve his wish, Sano tries to form alliances with other Riders by any means to earn their trust, even going as far as bribing them with money.
He provides Toujou Satoru hospitality after the latter's battle with Kamen Rider Ouja in Ep 43.
After his father's passing, Sano is placed in charge of his father's company, but is reminded by Kanzaki Shirou to keep his end of the contract.

In his final moments, Sano cries for help, but no one hears him as he was stuck in the Mirror World. He fades from existence while his girlfriend Yuri waits for his arrival in the real world.
Sano was not seen again after the reset of the series' timeline in Ep 50, but may have been restored to life with the other Riders that were not shown on-screen.
