Kamen Rider Kage: Difference between revisions

* [[Distracted By the Shiny]]: If you're not watching her, Akari will likely be destracted by something and disappear, unless she's in [[Let's Get Dangerous]] mode or Akarui. However, this is more due to her [[Man Child]] personality than anything else.

* [[Elemental Powers]]: There are four Tribes of Akuma, Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth. Kage also has the elemental power of Earth. He gains the power of Fire with his Inferno Form. Akarui has Wind and Water so far and Taiga has Metal.

* [[Engineered Public Confession]]: Used on General Kyo Takashi. Karin has his gloating about his [[Mix and Match Critter]] Prometheus recorded and when it [[Goes Horribly Wrong]], threatens to email the clip to every news station in the country and the Prime Minister's office if he doesn't do as she says. Considering he performed likely illegal genetic experments on sentient beings and his creation is presently tearing Tokyo apart, he's left with no option but to do as she says.

* [[Evil Cannot Comprehend Good]]: The High Warrior makes the Akuma who worship him ''literally'' incapable of telling that their actions are wrong.

* [[Mix and Match Critter]]: [[General Ripper|General Kyo Takeshi's]] Project Prometheus aims to create these to fight the Akuma, out of the Akuma's DNA.

* [[Mooks]]: The Anti-Akuma Division use armored troops called Masked Troopers to fight the Akuma, but once Taiga is perfected, they prefer using him to cut down on deaths.

* [[Offscreen Teleportation]]: Akari tends to do this whenever someones attention isn't on her.

* [[Oh Crap]]: [[General Ripper|General Kyo Takeshi]] gets one when his [[Mix and Match Critter]] survives the failsafe, litterally saying [[Oh Crap]].

* [[Omniscient Council of Vagueness]]: The Yoso Akuma Rozu seem to fit this role.

** Now Rao and Avalon Industries seems is another.

** In the [[Kamen Rider Double|W]] portion of the Movie War, {{spoiler|Kamen Rider Oblivion turns into his demonic Infernal Oblivion form by performing a Triple Maximum Drive. This, however, comes with him going completely [[Ax Crazy]] and insane.}}

* [[Orcus On His Throne]]: King Mao and the Yoso Akuma Rozu spend most of their time sitting on their thrones in the bowels of Mt. Fuji. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] in that Akuma are supposed to go by level of strength when attacking.

* [[Sealed Evil in A Can]]: The Akuma were imprisoned for 800 years inside Mao's Muramasa Blade until the sword was pulled out of the ocean and they were accidentally unleashed.

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

{{quote| '''Arata''': Attacking from behind? That's not like you. (Kage just continues for him without any words) What? No threat? No witty banter about how you're going to stop my rampage in its tracks? Have I gotten to y- ([[Talk to The Fist|Kage shuts him up with a punch to the face]])<br />

* [[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.

* [[Take Your Time]]: After becoming Kage, Jarrett takes five months to return to fight the Akuma, leaving the Anti-Akuma forces to pick up the slack. Justified in that there was a mysterious voice training him the whole time so he'd be ready for the fight.

* [[The Atoner]]: Hikaru, the Roadrunner Akuma, spends all his time after his [[Heel Face Turn]] trying to make up for the senseless death and destruction he caused while evil.

* [[Theme Naming]]: Japanese words, all the Riders names are based off Japanese words. The Akuma's first name is their tribe, their middle name is simply a given name, and their last name is the Japanese version of the animal they're based on.

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

{{quote| '''Taiga''': You fight with honor, I just fight.}}

* [[The Voice]]: A mysterious voice tells Jarrett he needs to train and perfect his Earth element in episode 3, then provides him with the equipment to do so.

* [[Wham Episode]]: {{spoiler|Episode 17. Hi-Anga-Doragon, one of the Yoso Akuma Rozu, descends from Mt. Fuji and begins making his plans, the Gecko Akuma reaches level four, Eiji finds out who Kage and Akarui really are, Kage's Torrent Form is revealed, and Eiji pushes the Taiga system so far past it's limits, it's destroyed and puts him in a coma.}}

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: One of the main goals of the Akuma is the search for a worthy opponent. Good thing Kage came along.
