Synopsis

Translated from Kamen Rider Official website:

Long ago, there was a battle between the mysterious group "Grongi" that was massacring humanity and the warrior "Kuuga". Time passed and it is now the year 2000. In order to protect people from the revived Grongi, adventurer Yusuke Godai, who has an ancient belt on his body, begins to fight as Kamen Rider Kuuga. Monsters appear one after another. As the battle intensifies, Kuuga acquires more powerful forms. "To protect everyone's smiles." With the support of many people, including detective Kaoru Ichijo, Godai fights a deadly battle against the Grongi.

From Shout Factory’s description of its Blu-Ray:

A NEW HERO. A NEW LEGEND.

Kamen Rider Kuuga is the first installment in the franchise's televised run in the Heisei Era. When a group of archaeologists uncover the tomb of a legendary warrior, they unearth Kuuga's belt, accidentally releasing an ancient race of monsters called the Grongi bent on destroying humanity. Enter Yusuke Godai, a guy-next- door type, who learns he is telepathically linked to the mysterious stone belt. With its power, he transforms into the legendary warrior known as Kuuga, humanity's only defense against the murderous Grongi monsters.
