Kamen Rider Kage: Difference between revisions

However, during the first Akuma's attack, he kills the parents of a man named Jarrett Tsuchi. When Jarrett discovers this, he awakens a long dormant power inside him and becomes the Samurai Rider, Kamen Rider Kage. After killing the Akuma, he leaves for five months to train. In the meantime, a woman also met that night by Kage, Karin Akari, becomes the leader of the Anti-Akuma Division of the JSDF, along with her second in command, Eiji Takeo. When Kage returns, Karin is forced to decide whether to help him or follow orders and capture him.

 

 

* [[Action Girl]]: Karin, she might not fight all the time, but she's tough enough to make a grown man cower in terror.

** Now Jarrett's cousin, Akari, who is Kamen Rider Akarui.

* [[Crazy Prepared]]: Karin after the five month time jump. She keeps a bazooka in her car. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] by the fact she lives in a world under attack by monsters.

* [[Cute Bruiser]]: Akari, who acts like a young child, has [[Super Strength]] and shows it the first time by throwing a mugger into a tree. However, Akarui is more of a [[Lightning Bruiser]].

** Akari has the same background as Jarrett.

* [[Dishing Out Dirt]]: Kage's Earth Form gives him the power of Earth.

* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Hikaru, the Roadrunner Akuma, comes to realize that the Akuma's beliefs are false and, after being given a second chance by a mysterous woman, tries to redeem himself for his sins.

* [[Heel Realization]]: After being mortally wounded by Kage's [[Finishing Move]] and left to die in peace, Hikaru comes to see that his views may be wrong and that Kage's statement that true power came from protecting others may be correct. He then resolves that if he gets the chance. Once he's given the chance, he completely regrets his actions.

* [[Homage]]: The Akuma and Kage themselves have several homage's to [[Kamen Rider Kuuga|Kuuga]] and the Grongi.

** Taiga is a homage to [[Kamen Rider Agito|G3 and G3-X]] to some degree. His suit announcing the type of attack he's just activated is one to [[Kamen Rider Kabuto|the Kabuto Riders]].

* [[Playing with Fire]]: The Fire Elemental Akuma. Kage's Inferno Form also gets has the power of fire.

* [[Reason You Suck Speech]]: Eiji to Arata:

* [[Religion of Evil]]: The Akuma's religion requires dieing in battle to get to the afterlife, not so bad, but to please their God, you have to cause senseless death and destruction on a regular basis.

* [[The Rival]]: Eiji/ {{spoiler|Kamen Rider Taiga}} to Kage. He doesn't have a personal grudge against him or is seeking a worthy opponent, he's just following orders.

* [[Second Rider]]: Eiji/Taiga becomes this. Akarui eventually joins in.

* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]: When Kaze-Arata-Gorudoiguru begins insulting Kage and enjoying how far under his skin he's gotten:

'''Kage''': Oh you've gotten to me alright...and [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner|you'll soon be wishing you hadn't]]! }}

* [[Super Strength]]: Akari has this. First shown by throwing a full grown man 15 feet into a tree. She Handwaved it by saying she was used to heavy lifting back home.

* [[The Un-Reveal]]: Kamen Rider Oblivion's true identity is never revealed.

* [[Trying to Catch Me Fighting Dirty]]: Taiga tends to fight in this fashion, being rather brutal and resorting to a [[Groin Attack]] or two.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: In the [[Kamen Rider Double|W]] portion of [[The Movie]] War {{spoiler|Kamen Rider Oblivion has one starting when Kamen Rider Cyclone arrives to fight him and getting progressively more unhinged after that, going off the deep end by performing a Triple Maximum Drive. He goes from a rather composed [[Smug Snake]] to [[Ax Crazy|screaming "Die! Die! Die! Die!" while raining energy balls down at W]].}}

** General Kyo has one after he's tricked and humiliated by Karin, throwing a tantrum and flipping over a table in an outright childish display of anger.
