It has the same name as the first series in the franchise, and fans usually refer to this series as New Kamen Rider or Skyrider (スカイライダー, Sukairaidā?) (after the main character) in order to distinguish it from the original. The series was broadcast on TBS from October 5, 1979 to October 10, 1980, lasting 54 episodes. The series was a co-production between Toei and Ishinomori Productions, and was created by Shotaro Ishinomori. It aired every Saturday at 7:00 PM.

New Kamen Rider was intended as a revival of the original Kamen Rider, going back to the basic, essential themes established in that series, as opposed to the more complex and unique series that followed, such as Kamen Rider Amazon and Kamen Rider Stronger.
