Natsumi Miwa

Kamen Rider Larc''' a fictional character who appeared exclusively in Kamen Rider Blade: Missing Ace, a movie adaptation of the popular Japanese television series Kamen Rider Blade. Her true identity is Miwa Natsumi and she is portrayed by Yoko Mitsuya. She is also the second official female Rider in the Kamen Rider Franchise and is sometimes called Kamen Rider Lark or Kamen Rider L'arc. Her rider name, "Larc", is French for "Archer", being the replacement of Kamen Rider Chalice, as well as Kamen Rider Garren, for the team's long range fighter. In Kamen Rider Decade, she appears as a rebel fighter opposing Jashin 14.'''

Background


Miwa Natsumi originally applied as an office worker, but was berated by the boss. As a result, she knocked him out after having enough of his words. She was handpicked, along with Shin Magaki (Kamen Rider Lance), by Shimura Junichi (Kamen Rider Glaive) to become the New Generation Riders for BOARD to capture the Undead released by the Albino Joker. She is armed with the L'arc Rouzer, a crossbow. Her weapon is based on the Garren Rouser and the Chalice Arrow. Her primary finisher is Ray Bullet, a supercharged energy arrow. She was killed by the Albino Joker shortly after all the Category King Undeads had been resealed.

Kamen Rider Decade's Version
Haruka Miwa (三輪 春香, Miwa Haruka) is a young woman who resists Fourteen as Kamen Rider Larc (仮面ライダーラルク, Kamen Raidā Raruku). She took part in the operation to overthrow Fourteen and ended up escaping with Shin when the operation was a failure. Since then, she has been on the run from Fourteen's minions. She helps fill Tsukasa in on what is currently happening in her world. For more information, see Kamen Rider Larc (Decade).

Yoko Mitsuya (三津谷 葉子, Mitsuya Yōko) reprises Haruka Miwa. She previously portrayed a similar character Natsumi Miwa (三輪 夏美, Miwa Natsumi) in Kamen Rider Blade: Missing Ace. Her name was presumably changed due to the presence of another Natsumi in Decade. Part of the name Natsumi is derived from the word for summer, whereas part of the name Haruka is derived from the word for spring.
