TV (now TV Asahi). The manga
adaptation was also featured in
Shnen Magazine around the
same period. The series has
evolved into a franchise with
many subsequent annual
iterations. The cultural impact
of the series in Japan resulted
in astronomer Akimasa
Nakamura naming two minor
planets in honor of the series:

Chronology

Followed by Kamen Rider V3

Story
The series takes place in a
world plagued by Shocker, a
mysterious world-wide terrorist
organization formed by
remaining members of the
Nazis. To further its plans for
world domination, Shocker
recruited its agents through
kidnapping, turning their

Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

victims into mutant cyborgs


and, ultimately, brainwashing
them. However, one victim
named Takeshi Hongo escaped
just before the final
brainwashing. With his sanity
and moral conscience intact,
Hongo battled Shocker's
minions as the grasshopper-
themed altered human (
kaiz ningen) superhero
Kamen Rider. Another victim of
the altered human process,
freelance photographer Hayato
Ichimonji, became Kamen
Rider 2 after Kamen Rider, who

Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

renamed himself as "Kamen


Rider 1", saved him from
Shocker's brainwashing.
Assisted by motorcycle race
team manager Tobei Tachibana
and FBI agent Kazuya Taki, the
Kamen Riders fought in both
solo and partnered missions
against Shocker and its
successor organization, Gel-
Shocker.

Manga
Many manga based on the
original Kamen Rider series

9 of 109 09/06/17 04:29


Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

have been published, but only


one was penned and drawn by
Ishinomori himself. Ishinomori
was also the author of one
chapter of the Kamen Rider
Amazon manga and the entire
Kamen Rider Black manga.
However, those manga were
based on sequels to Kamen
Rider, rather than the original
series.

The original manga, published


in 1971, initially follows a path
resembling the first few
episodes of the TV series, from

10 of 109 09/06/17 04:29


Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

basic plot to creature designs.


However, when Hongo leaves
the story, the series diverge
greatly. In the TV show, Hongo
travels abroad to fight Shocker
in other countries, leaving
Japan's protection to Hayato
Ichimonji, a freelance
cameraman who was
experimented on by Shocker
but saved by Hongo, becoming
the second Kamen Rider. In the
manga, Hongo never left
Japan. He was confronted with
twelve "Shocker Riders" and
was subsequently mortally

11 of 109 09/06/17 04:29


Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

wounded during his battle


against them. Hayato Ichimonji,
one of the twelve Shocker
Riders, receives a head injury
during the fight and regains his
conscience as a result. He then
turns against Shocker and
succeeds Hongo's role as
Kamen Rider. In spite of the
damage to his body, Hongo's
brain survives and guides
Ichimonji, the two fighting as
one.

Hongo eventually returns as a


Rider in both stories, but

12 of 109 09/06/17 04:29


Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

starting with Hayato's debut,


villains and even basic story
development greatly diverge
between the two versions. The
manga portrays a seemingly
hopeless battle against
Shocker, an organization with
ties to governmental
conspiracies that seems much
bigger than either of the two
Riders. The live action TV
shows portray the Riders as
heroes strong enough to bring
down Shocker, only to see it
replaced by similar
organizations led by Shocker's

Kamen Rider - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider

mysterious leader. The Shocker


Riders eventually appear in the
TV series, too, but they looked
different and had different
abilities. There were also only
six Shocker Riders, rather than
the manga's 12.

Hegemony Of Cycle Kindred


Evolutional Realm", as revealed
in the movie reboot. Shocker's
goal is to conquer the world. To
this end, their scientists turn
humans into superhuman
cyborgs by surgically altering
them with animal DNA.
Virtually all of its members are
modified in some way. The
original manga showed that
Shocker had influence over the
governments of the world. Its
founders had ties to the Nazis,
Illuminati and the Kamen Rider

references to the group's


support by the Badan Empire.

Ruthless and merciless,


Shocker would often kidnap
prominent scientists and force
them to work for the
organization, then kill them
when their usefulness was at
an end, or if they attempted to
escape. The decision to kidnap
and modify college student
Takeshi Hongo proved to be
their undoing. He was intended
to be another of Shocker's
powerful cyborg warriors, a

he escaped and opposed them
as Kamen Rider 1. A later
attempt to create a second,
more powerful Kamen Rider
backfired when the intended
victim, Hayato Ichimonji, was
rescued by the original Rider
before he was brainwashed.
Ichimonji joined Hongo as
Kamen Rider 2. The pair, known
as the Double Riders, put an
end to Shocker, and later its
remnants, who formed Gel-
Shocker after their first defeat.

be found out during the events

to create time loops and alters

that no one dies like what
happened to one of his old
allies to create a loop. As
Takumi is about to destroy the
machine, the Great Leader of
Shocker appears with an
appearance identical to
Takumi's. In the end, Takumi
destroys the machine and
disappears alongside the
modified timeline, restored
back to its original timeline
once more. Though most of his

He aims to become a Destron
commander, replacing Doctor

Kamen Rider V3 escaped from
Destron's base, a self-

activated, and Colonel Zol was
unable to escape, dying again
with it. In Kamen Rider Spirits

among the other revived
members is that he had his

trademark is a high pitched
battle-cry.

Big Machine is Shocker's

mechanized body and is
behind Shocker's "October
Project", which involves using a
super computer to brainwash
the population of Japan. He's
able to match up the Riders in
combat and launch attacks
that disrupt electronic
equipment, including Rider 1's
and 2's own bodies. The design
of his body was the base of
Ambassador Hell's design in
the TV show, although it was
altered to allow a human face,

and, unlike Big Machine,


Ambassador Hell was kept a
separate character from the
Leader of Shocker. In Kamen

reimagined as a project of the
Shocker/Zangyack Alliance to
create a giant robot from Crisis
