Shin Kamen Rider

Three episodes in of Ichimonji's era as the Kamen Rider, and man, I now hate he is being depicted in later Kamen Rider media. He's the main character for a chunk of the show, but they treated him like a second fiddle to Hongo. They downplayed his charisma and his massive goofball energy.

Who Wore it - Kamen Rider (1971)

I'm sure you've all seen the shot of Hiroshi Fujoka (as Rider 1) in the half-mask.

But have you seen Takeshi Sasaki (as Rider 2) with his helmet off?

Fujioka wore the Rider 1 suit for the first 10 episodes* - but Masaru Okada was the actual suit actor for most of the series.

Here he is pictured in the Rider 2 costume -

(*technically - since the latter half of those episodes used previously-filmed scenes of Fujioka following his motorcycle accident with a sound alike dubbing new lines)

In the spirit of Jevil, I have a little game to play. Degrees of seperation, I think it’s called.

It’s at least a semi-well known fun fact that some of Jevil’s voice lines are based on a line of japanese LINE stickers called “Loose Clown.” 

He is a funny clown after all, so it’s a fun obscure reference for Toby to make. Here’s the other one referenced by Jevil:

So what’s the deal with this one, right? Why is the pose for “Metamorphosis” dabbing? Well, it can be assumed that “Metamorphosis” is a direct translation of the japanese “Henshin”, which in turn is what Jevil actually does say in the japanese translation. And why’s that important?

Well, Japan also happens to have a popular long running superhero series, starring bug-eyed heroes who transform with the phrase “Henshin”, the second of which has been rocking that pose all the way since the early seventies.

Yep, there’s Kamen Rider 2 rocking the pose, and for a little extra here’s Kamen Rider Stronger and Kamen Rider Black rocking it as well.

And some kid, because I’m pretty sure this is an advertisement for the transforming belt toy. Hence, this is a “Henshin” pose.

So Jevil was referencing Loose Clown, but your fun fact of the day is that Loose Clown was referencing Kamen Rider in turn. How’s that for uhhh... Only one degree of seperation, actually. Tune into Kamen Rider Jevil, coming 202X! A mischief mischef, a justice justice!
