|This article is about a/an set of riders in the Kamen Rider Series.|
Shōwa-era Riders are Kamen Riders from the Shōwa Period of Japan, which took place from 1926 to 1989.
All Showa Era series had the involvement of the Kamen Rider Series' creator, Shotaro Ishinomori. Even after the Shōwa Period ended officially, fans and Toei refer to series or movies involving Ishinomori as a part of the Shōwa Period. This is due to the fact that Kamen Rider is mainly a series, and even Kamen Rider Kuuga, the first Heisei series, had Ishinomori involvement.
Riders are classified by Era according to when their respective series aired in real life, rather than the setting of the series. Thus, Riders such as Kamen Rider Ixa, despite appearing during the Showa Era within their series, are not considered Showa Era Riders.
