On June 30, a Fuuto PI sequel movie was announced. The movie, titled “The Portrait of Kamen Rider Skull” (Japanese: 風都探偵 仮面ライダースカルの肖像) takes place after the anime’s first season but will primarily depict past events, following private detective Sokichi Narumi until Begins Night, Kamen Rider W’s origin event.
