Line 11:
 
* [[All Your Colors Combined]]: As its name implies, the Prism Memory enables this.
* [[All Your Powers Combined]]: [[Super Mode|CycloneJoker Xtreme]]'s Prism Bicker combines the power of the {{color|green|CCyclone}}, {{color|red|HHeat}}, {{color|gold|LLuna}}, and Joker or {{color|gray|MMetal}} Memories to deliver a very potent Maximum Drive.
* [[The Berserker]]: FangJoker was during its first two uses, due to Philip's difficulty in controlling it.
* [[Bifurcated Weapon]]: Prism Bicker, which splits into the [[Cool Sword|Prism Sword]] and [[Luckily My Shield Will Protect Me|Bicker Shield]].
Line 32:
* [[Explosive Overclocking]]: Episode 27/28's Twin Maximum Drive. The effects of one person alone trying it makes its usage take on shades of [[Heroic RROD]] as well.
* [[Finishing Move]]: Several:
** Joker Forms: With the exception of {{color|silver|FFang}}Joker, forms using the Joker Memory involve Double's [[Detachment Combat|body separating]].
*** {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker: ''Joker Extreme'' <ref>Double splits in half, then the Joker and Cyclone halves kick the target consecutively.</ref>
*** {{color|red|HHeat}}Joker: ''Joker Grenade'' <ref>Double splits in half and delivers a jumping, flaming punch with the Heat and Joker halves consecutively.</ref>
*** {{color|gold|LLuna}}Joker: ''Joker Strange'' <ref>Double splits in half, then the Luna half makes four copies of itself that unleash countless chops on the enemy before the Joker half delivers a powerful karate chop.</ref>
*** {{color|silver|FFang}}Joker: ''Fang Streiser'' <ref>Upon activation, the Fang Blade appears on the right ankle. Double leaps into the air and does a [[Hurricane Kick]].</ref>
** {{color|gray|MMetal}} Forms: Forms using the {{color|gray|MMetal}} Memory usually involve the Metal Memory being spun.
*** {{color|green|CCyclone}}{{color|gray|MMetal}}: ''Metal Twister'' <ref>Spins the Metal Shaft, releasing powerful winds to strike at close-range. Changes to a pincer attack called ''Metal Stag Break'' when the Stag Phone is attached to the Metal Shaft.</ref>
*** {{color|red|HHeat}}{{color|gray|MMetal}}: ''Metal Branding'' <ref>The tips of the Metal Shaft ignite, and Double smashes it into the enemy with an explosion.</ref>
*** {{color|gold|LLuna}}{{color|gray|MMetal}}: ''Metal Illusion'' <ref>Double spins the Metal Shaft around to produce [[Rings of Death]] that hit the enemy, then they all converge for one last blow.</ref>
** {{color|blue|TTrigger}} Forms: Forms using the {{color|blue|TTrigger}} Memory usually involve the Trigger Magnum [[Beam Spam|firing multiple shots]].
*** {{color|green|CCyclone}}{{color|blue|TTrigger}}: ''Trigger Aerobuster'' <ref>Double fires a series of blasts of pressurized air from the Trigger Magnum. Changes to a powerful condensed shot called ''Trigger Bat Shooting'' when the Bat Shot is attached as a scope to the Trigger Magnum.</ref>
*** {{color|red|HHeat}}{{color|blue|TTrigger}}: ''Trigger Explosion'' <ref>The Trigger Magnum fires a laser beam like flame shot, frying the target. When both Memories are used, it changes to ''HeatTrigger Supernova'', which is more powerful but the Double Driver to the point of catching Double on fire, repeatedly spouting "'''MAXIMUM DRIVE'''", and seriously injuring Double's body.</ref>
*** {{color|gold|LLuna}}{{color|blue|TTrigger}}: ''Trigger Full Burst'' <ref>A massive barrage of homing shots from the Trigger Magnum. Changes to a double pincer ray called ''Trigger Stag Burst'' when the Stag Phone Memory Gadget is attached to the gun.</ref>
** {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker {{color|silver|XXtreme}}: CycloneJoker Xtreme has a total of five finishing moves.
*** ''Double Xtreme'': A tornado, larger than the one used by {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker, lifts Double into the sky and speeds them towards the foe.
*** ''Prism Break'': A slash from the Prism Sword.
*** ''Bicker Charge Break'': A slash from the Prism Sword after being charged up by the Bicker Shield using the {{color|green|CCyclone}}, {{color|red|HHeat}}, {{color|gold|LLuna}}, and Joker Memories.
*** ''Bicker Finallusion'': A laser blast from the Prism Bicker with the {{color|green|CCyclone}}, {{color|red|HHeat}}, {{color|gold|LLuna}}, and Joker Memories. A variation with the {{color|gray|MMetal}} Memory replacing the Joker Memory creates a laser shield that protects against powerful attacks.
*** ''Double Prism Xtreme'': A Twin Maximum Drive with the Prism Memory in the Maximum Slot; a bicycle kick.
** {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker {{color|gold|GGold}} {{color|silver|XXtreme}}: ''Golden Xtreme'' <ref>An enhanced version of the ''Double Xtreme''.</ref>
** A couple of other Maximum Drives without names have been performed with the Memory Gadgets.
*** {{color|maroon|SStag}} Phone with {{color|red|HHeat}} Memory: Engulfs the Stag Phone in fire.
*** {{color|navy|BBat}} Shot with {{color|gold|LLuna}} Memory: Sets off a series of flash bulb bursts that disorient the target.
* [[Fusion Dance]]: It's not really two people fusing into one, but more like the soul of one person goes into the other's body. So there's a limp body that needs protecting.
** Played straight when Double's {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker {{color|silver|XXtreme}} form fuses both Shotaro's and Philip's bodies together.
* [[Giving Someone the Pointer Finger]]: Before the beatdown.
* [[Incendiary Exponent]]: The {{color|red|HHeat}} Memory can ignite HeatJoker's right fist or the {{color|gray|MMetal Shaft}} as HeatMetal for the Memory Break.
* [[Mid Season Upgrade]]: {{color|silver|FFang}}Joker
* [[Multiform Balance]]
** [[Jack of All Stats]]: The Joker forms, except {{color|silver|FFang}}Joker.
** [[Mighty Glacier]]: The {{color|gray|MMetal}} forms.
** [[Glass Cannon]]: The {{color|blue|TTrigger}} forms.
** [[Lightning Bruiser]]: {{color|silver|FFang}}Joker
** [[Super Mode]]: {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker{{color|silver|XXtreme}}
** [[Serial Escalation]]: {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker {{color|gold|GGold}} {{color|silver|XXtreme}}
* [[Power Gives You Wings]]: {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker {{color|gold|GGold}} {{color|silver|XXtreme}} from [[The Movie]], [[Mythology Gag|which bears a resemblance to]] [[Kamen Rider Blade|Blade's Jack Form]].
* [[Razor Wind]]: {{color|green|CCyclone}}{{color|gray|MMetal}} can execute these with the {{color|gray|MMetal Shaft}} even without using a Memory Break.
* [[Rubber Man]]: {{color|gold|LLuna}}Joker can stretch his right limbs.
* [[Spot Light Stealing Squad]]: The {{color|red|HHeat}} Memory is probably the most used memory of all, not just within the three (four if you count {{color|silver|ffang}}) Philip uses.
** In a similar vein, Shotaro prefers the Joker Memory the most.
* [[Theme Music Power Up]]: Every time Double transforms.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: {{color|green|CCyclone}}{{color|crimson|AAccel}} {{color|silver|XXtreme}} which is the super mode of Ryu if he replaces Shotaro in Double's formation. Only seen briefly, never used.
 
==== Shotaro Hidari/Kamen Rider Joker | <small>Actor: Renn Kiriyama</small> ====
Line 118:
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: His Gaia Memories provide these for Double:
** [[Bare Fisted Monk]]: The Joker Memory, which allows Double to perform Rider Kicks/Rider Punches/Rider Chops. While Shotaro uses the T2 Joker Memory to transform into Kamen Rider Joker in [[The Movie]], he uses his normal Joker Memory in episode 49.
** [[Simple Staff]]: The {{color|gray|MMetal}} Memory with the Metal Shaft. Turns into a [[Whip It Good|whip]] with the {{color|gold|LLuna}} Memory on the right side.
** [[The Gunslinger]]: The {{color|blue|TTrigger}} Memory with the Trigger Magnum.
 
==== Philip{{spoiler|/Raito Sonozaki}} | <small>Actor: Masaki Suda</small> ====
Line 138:
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]
* [[Elemental Powers]]: His Gaia Memories allow access to these:
** [[Blow You Away]]: The {{color|green|CCyclone}} Memory.
** [[Playing With Fire]]: The {{color|red|HHeat}} Memory.
** [[Lunacy]]: The {{color|gold|LLuna}} Memory; [[Word of God]] gives its power as "Illusions", but it seems that [[Green Lantern Ring|stretching]] is the primary manifestation of this power. See the main entry for more information.
* [[Everythings Better With Dinosaurs]]: The {{color|silver|FFang}} Memory, made to protect him, has a Velociraptor-like Live Mode, and allows access to the spiny FangJoker form.
* [[The Exotic Detective]]
* [[Extreme Omnivore]]: Philip develops a taste for... vinegar, after Akiko used it a couple of times on him as an all-purpose elixir.
Line 157:
* [[Of Corpse He's Alive]]: Whenever his mind is in Double's body, Philip is unconscious, so his lifeless body is a sitting duck. In episode 7, nobody tried to interact with them, but Akiko had to make-believe they were napping sweethearts, so as not to draw attention on the bus.
* {{spoiler|[[Phlebotinum Breakdown]]: After the failed Gaia Impact, Philip's body is returning to data, hastened by transformation.}}
* [[Scarf of Asskicking]]: The {{color|green|CCyclone}} Memory comes with the iconic scarf. Double's scarf is known as the Windy Stabilizer.
* [[Skilled but Naive]]
* [[The Smart Guy]]
* [[Spell My Name With an S]]: His name is spelt as "Philippe" in the aura that surrounds his body when he enters the Gaia Library, but now Toei seems to have gone with Philip.
* [[Spikes of Doom]]: The {{color|silver|FFang}} Memory.
* [[The Spock]]
* {{spoiler|[[Tomato in The Mirror]]: Episode 38. That is all.}}
Line 195:
** In Ep. 14, Shotaro gets payback by hitting her with her own slipper.
** In a more meta example, she combines the slipper slap with [[Percussive Maintenance]] in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsLvr_jo-Zk&fmt=18 music video] for the opening theme song. The results are bizarre, to say the least.
** Durning her dream in the Nightmare arc, her slipper serves as {{color|green|CCyclone}}Joker's primary weapon, and she beats the crap out of the Nightmare Dopant with it (or tries to, at least).
** And she manages to outdo herself yet again in episode 40 by slapping Wakana in her Claydoll form {{spoiler|who had just received the Gaia Progressor}}.
* [[Tsundere]]
 
=== Sokichi Narumi/Kamen Rider {{color|indigo|SSkull}} ({{color|indigo|CCrystal}}) | <small>Actor: Koji Kikkawa</small> ===
 
Sokichi Narumi was Shotaro's boss, who taught the young man the trade of a [[Private Detective]]. During a mission to liberate a young man he dubbed Philip, he was shot at and was killed. The events of ''[[The Movie|Movie Wars 2010]]'' reveal that he was Kamen Rider Skull, while ''Movie Wars CORE'' is a [[Whole Episode Flashback]] showing him as Skull Crystal ten years before the ''Double'' TV series.
Line 218:
* [[Not So Stoic]]: {{spoiler|The Chief is revealed to have a half-boiled side in episode 32.}}
* [[Posthumous Character]]
* [[Super Prototype]]: Skull is the prototype for Double, best illustrated by its being a jack-of-all-trades combination of Shotaro's Memories (melee brawler like Joker, good defense like {{color|silver|MMetal}}, [[The Gunslinger]] like {{color|blue|TTrigger}}).
* {{spoiler|[[Touch of Death]]: Thanks to the Spider Dopant, he can never touch Akiko or she will explode - thus explaining his long absence from his daughter's life.}}
 
Line 224:
== Futo Police Department ==
 
=== Ryu Terui/Kamen Rider {{color|red|AAc}}{{color|gold|c}}{{color|blue|eel}} | <small>Actor: Minehiro Kinomoto</small> ===
 
Ryu Terui is a police superintendent assigned to the Futo Police Department's Paranormal Crime Investigation Division, and is thus Jinno and Makura's superior. His family was murdered by a man with a W memory, giving him a motivation to exact revenge. When he meets up with the enigmatic Shroud, she gives him his gear, allowing him to transform into Kamen Rider Accel.
Line 245:
* [[Death Seeker]]: Ryu becomes one when he finally tracks down Dr. Isaka. Shotaro [[What the Hell Hero|calls him out on it]], and he eventually gets over it.
* [[Finishing Move]]: Several:
** {{color|crimson|AAccel}}: ''Accel Glanzer'' <ref>Kamen Rider Accel uses a flying reverse roundhouse kick that uses the wheel half on his right leg to leave a skid-mark like trail.</ref>
** {{color|grey|EEngine}}: Four variations:
*** ''Dynamic Ace'': The EngineBlade blasts a giant letter A out of the blade into the enemy.
*** ''A-Slasher'': Accel uses the EngineBlade to make three slashes in the shape of the letter A, be it a birds eye view or in front of him, to attack.
*** ''Engine Bike Dasher'': Accel transforms into Bike Form and then [[Ramming Always Works|drives straight through the target]].
*** (''Unnamed''): Accel spins around while slashing multiple targets before stopping a moment to spin into the opposite direction (still slashing) and then stops again to finish them off with normal slashes.
** {{color|green|CCyclone}}: Accel performs a wind-powered slash with the EngineBlade.
** {{color|crimson|AAccel}}{{color|navy|GGunner}}: ''Gunner Full Break'' <ref>Accel in the AccelGunner fires a blast from its tank-mounted [[BFG]], the Gaia Cannon, to defeat a Dopant turned giant.</ref>
** {{color|crimson|AAccel}}{{color|red|TTurbuler}}: ''AccelTurbuler Phoenix'' <ref>Accel, connected to the Turbuler attachment, bursts into flames and rams through the enemy in midair.</ref>
** {{color|blue|TTrial}}: ''Machine Gun Spike'' <ref>Accel Trial delivers multiple kicks that burn a giant letter T onto the enemy.</ref>
** {{color|blue|TTrial}}/{{color|grey|EEngine}}: ''Machine Gun Slasher'' <ref>Accel Trial delivers a series of rapid slashes with the EngineBlade to the enemy.</ref>
** {{color|crimson|AAccel}}{{color|gold|BBooster}}/{{color|grey|EEngine}}: ''Boost Slasher'' <ref>The Engine Blade turns into a glowing golden energy blade and Accel slashes through the enemy as he flies through.</ref>
* [[Fire Ice Lightning]]: Accel's Engine Blade has settings for steam, fire, and lightning, representing three types of engines (Steam, Jet, and Electric).
* [[Happily Married]]
Line 265:
* [[Love Redeems]]: He believes his love for Akiko helped him overcome his craze for vengeance.
* [[Multiform Balance]]
** {{color|crimson|AAccel}}: A [[Mighty Glacier]] thanks to its heavy armor and exceptional attack power.
** {{color|blue|TTrial}}: A [[Fragile Speedster]] that loses much of Accel's armor in return for moving at [[Super Speed]].
** {{color|gold|BBooster}}: The [[Jack of All Stats]] thanks to its having more armor than Trial but greater speed than Accel, plus the ability to fly. Also be an [[Eleventh Hour Superpower]] and possibly not a regular form since {{spoiler|it comes from connecting the Enhancement Adapter to the Accel Memory, which doesn't physically change, and he detransformed into Ryu after finishing off the Commander Dopant}}.
* [[Names the Same]]: A red warrior named Ryu whose motivation is the loss of a loved one and who gets the girl at the end? [[Choujin Sentai Jetman|Not the first time Toei's done it.]]
* [[Official Couple]]: With Akiko.
Line 273:
* [[The Rival]]: Subverted. Ryu was introduced in "The I Doesn't Stop" as a character whose moral stance and personality were fundamentally opposed to Shotaro's, fitting the general pattern of secondary Riders introduced in the Heisei era <ref>e.g., Kaixa, Leangle, TheBee, IXA, Diend</ref>. A rivalry, however, never developed due to both characters being willing to talk things out and genuine [[Character Development]] on Ryu's part, making Ryu more of a genuine friend to Shotaro than [[The Rival]]. Since characters in Heisei Rider shows are usually ''far'' more willing to fight rather than talk things over, this subverts the typical role of the secondary Rider.
* [[Sixth Ranger|Second Rider]]
* [[Super Mode]]: {{color|gold|AAccel Booster}}
* [[Super Speed]]: {{color|blue|AAccel Trial}}
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: How he ends up {{spoiler|ultimately defeating Isaka}}.
* [[The Worf Effect]]: Gets hit with this around episode 45 onward.
Line 609:

Katsumi Daido is the leader of the terrorist organization NEVER, distributing the T2 Gaia Memories which resemble the Kamen Rider's Memories. With the Eternal Memory and a Lost Driver, he transforms into Kamen Rider Eternal.

* [[Hey Its That Guy]]: Fans of the band SOPHIA (which performs the theme for the movie) may recognize him as the vocalist.
* [[Finishing Move]]: Five of them.
** {{color|palegoldenrod|EEternal}} 1: ''Eternal Requiem'' <ref>An energy wave that nullifies all non-T2 Gaia memories. Can also be used as the power source for a spinning Rider Kick as portrayed in ''W Returns: Kamen Rider Eternal''.</ref>
** {{color|palegoldenrod|EEternal}} 2: ''Bloody Hell Blade'' <ref>A Rider Slash using the Eternal Edge.</ref>
** {{color|darkgreen|UUnicorn}}: An unnamed Maximum Drive where Eternal executes a Rider Punch through drill shaped energy.

* [[Berserk Button]]: According to him, being called a creepy old guy is a huge insult to [[Camp Gay|a lady]].
