Haruka Mizusawa is a meek young man who became infected with Amazon Cells (アマゾン細胞 Amazon Saibō), which are created by the Nozama Pharmacy company (野座間製薬株式会社 Nozama Seiyaku Kabushikigaisha). This causes Haruka to transform into the feral berserker Kamen Rider Amazon Omega (仮面ライダーアマゾンオメガ Kamen Raidā Amazon Omega) as he strives to assert his humanity while fighting similarly infected creatures called the Amazonz (アマゾン Amazon). Haruka also encounters the Nozama Peston Service (ノザマペストンサービス Nozama Pesuton Sābisu), Nozama Pharmacy's Amazon hunters, and Jin Takayama, a former cell biologist at Nozama Pharmacy and Amazon hunter who becomes Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha (仮面ライダーアマゾンアルファ Kamen Raidā Amazon Arufa). Later, Jun Maehara, a member of Nozama Peston Service who died once during an Amazonz attacks, is revived into Kamen Rider Amazon Sigma (仮面ライダーアマゾンシグマ Kamen Raidā Amazon Shiguma).
