Background / History

Qian Qiao comes from a “very, very distant place” and tells Zhu Zhuqing about Earth, Kamen Riders, and the people connected to his past, beginning with Xiao Ma Ge. He has difficulty explaining modern technology to Douluo Continent natives and therefore calls his phone a Soul Tool. 72 74

During the events surrounding Shrek's new-student assessment, Qian Qiao protects Zhu Zhuqing and defeats Zhao Wuji with Exceed Charge, leaving the teacher injured but alive. 35

He later enters the Soul Arena under the codename Orga. There, he reveals Kamen Rider Faiz to the public during his match with Desert Living Buddha, then becomes widely known to spectators as the “Armored Man.” 43 49

While Zhu Zhuqing flees the Star Luo Empire's internal conflict, Qian Qiao encounters her wandering alone. When exhaustion causes her to faint, he carries her, shelters her in a self-deploying tent, and continues traveling with her despite not knowing her destination. 67 68 69 He subsequently eliminates the black-clad Soul Kings pursuing her and commits himself to protecting both her and her dream. 73

Appearance

Qian Qiao is portrayed as tall and handsome, standing noticeably taller than Zhu Zhuqing. Even when she tries to outpace him during their journey, he keeps pace effortlessly while casually observing the scenery. 68

• His Kamen Rider Faiz transformation begins when he equips a belt and enters 555 on his phone; red Photon Blood spreads across his body before the armor manifests. 47
• In his accelerated form, his chest armor shifts to his shoulders, his Photon Blood turns silver-white, and his compound eyes change from gold to red. 155
• A later enhanced form has a black-and-silver color scheme, red compound eyes, a green chest core, and silver Photon Blood. 96

Personality

Qian Qiao is calm under pressure and generally avoids unnecessary panic. In Soul Arena battles, he waits through sustained enemy pressure, uses evasive movement to create an opening, and counterattacks only when the moment is favorable. 48 49

He values ordinary beauty in a world dominated by the pursuit of strength. Zhu Zhuqing first notices him because he walks slowly enough to appreciate the surrounding scenery rather than rushing onward. 67 70

His conduct is guided by an ideal he associates with Kamen Riders: he refuses to abandon someone helpless. This extends beyond Zhu Zhuqing; when the Withered Old Man takes his companions hostage, Qian Qiao relinquishes his time-stopping advantage, transformation, and ability to dodge in an effort to save them. 68 236 237

Despite his decisiveness in battle, he is inexperienced and timid in romance. He struggles to initiate a simple outing with Zhu Zhuqing and stammers when formally introducing her as his girlfriend. 239 310

Abilities & Skills

Kamen Rider Faiz Transformation

Qian Qiao transforms into Kamen Rider Faiz through his phone and belt, activating the sequence by entering 555. The armor uses Photon Blood and greatly augments his physical combat ability. 43 47

• Faiz's debut in the Soul Arena establishes Kamen Rider armor before the public. 43
• The armor enables him to overpower opponents above the expectations for his stated Soul Master rank. 48 161
• He can voluntarily cancel the transformation by removing the phone from his belt. 237

Rider Kicks and Crimson Drills

Qian Qiao specializes in close-range kicking techniques, often using Photon Blood and Crimson Drills to turn his strikes into finishing attacks. 49 73

• Rider Kick — His strongest attack injures the Titan Giant Ape after striking its head, leaving visible scorch marks. 95
• He can launch a Crimson Drill from the Faiz Phone's gun form, though using it without Faiz Armor reduces its restraining effect. 238

Acceleration Watch

Qian Qiao's wrist-mounted Acceleration Watch grants extreme speed and a time-stopping effect, allowing him to evade attacks that would otherwise be unavoidable. 155 234

• He uses accelerated movement to instantly defeat Yu Tianheng without deploying a Rider Kick or Rider Punch. 155 156
• When isolated in darkness by the Withered Old Man, he stops time and counters with a Crimson Drill before the opponent can seize him. 234
• He discards the watch as part of the Withered Old Man's hostage demands. 236
• The watch is later stolen, forcing him to fight without its advantage. 240

• In Blaster Form, he defeats the Withered Old Man, a Titled Douluo, through overwhelming physical force. 241
• Rather than relying on Soul Skills, he batters the Withered Old Man with repeated punches and kicks. 241

Evasion and Hand-to-Hand Combat

Even untransformed, Qian Qiao has exceptional agility, combat instincts, and kicking skill. 36 237

• He evades the WuXi DiXi brothers' sustained assaults through repeated backflips before launching a coordinated counterattack with Zhu Zhuqing. 48 49
• He learns agility-type combat principles directly from Zhu Zhuqing and later uses them to evade the Withered Old Man's Dark Road without Faiz Armor. 237
• He weakens the Withered Old Man's Nightmare attack with gunfire, a Crimson Drill, and consecutive leg whips before enduring the final blow. 238

• Soaga — Close friend and Organization representative. He reunites with Qian Qiao during the Spirit Hall conflict, helps save him, and supplies the Faiz Blaster Form device. 239 240 242
• Xiao Ma Ge / Kiba Yuji — Qian Qiao's former best partner and close friend. He arrives with Soaga to rescue Qian Qiao from the Withered Old Man. 239 240
