Yes, he is. He is also the one who is going to sing the new theme for the new Decade movie, "Kamen Rider Decade Gekijouban: Decade VS. All Rider!"
The theme for the series was "Journey through the Decade." The theme for the first movie was "The Next Decade." The theme for the new movie is supposedly translated as "Stay the Decade Alive" though this sounds sorta wrong and I believe it to actually say "Keep the Decade Alive."
