Kamen Rider Kuuga/Characters: Difference between revisions

== Kuuga ==

-----

{{spoiler|After seemingly dying at the hands of the mushroom Grongi Me-Ginoga-De, Godai's premonitions combined with Dr Tsubaki's defibrillator awaken a new power in the Amadam, the stone within the Arcle. This unlocks a new level of power, the Rising forms. In his hatred for Go-Jaraji-Da, he channels Ultimate Form, a form powered by anger, as he defeats the Grongi. Eventually, once all the other Grongi are defeated, N-Daguva-Zeba, the Grongi leader, comes and nearly kills Godai, challenging him. Eventually, Godai transforms into Ultimate Form, but firmly under his control, and engages in a brutal battle with Daguva, narrowly winning after both their Amadams were destroyed and reverting into human form.}}

 

* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]

* [[Chest Insignia]]: After a certain point, he starts wearing shirts and jackets marked with Kuuga's emblem.

* [[Cool Bike]]: The TryChaser 2000 and the BeatChaser 2000.

* [[Destructive Savior]]: The Rising forms are powerful enough to cause catastrophic explosions; thus Godai and the police work to avoid this by diverting battles to more secluded locations.

* [[Elemental Powers]]: Downplayed as Kuuga does not actually invoke the elements themselves (unless otherwise stated). Each of the four forms of Kuuga is themed after an element and implied as such based on in-universe translations of the Linto language. Heck, even Godai's own surname is tied to the five elements.

* [[Finishing Move]]:

** '''Ultimate''' Form: ''Ultimate Mighty Kick'' <ref>A Rider Kick said to be so insanely strong, it could cause an [[Earthshattering Kaboom]] if used at full power! Obviously, this attack is [[All There in the Manual|only mentioned, never shown]].</ref>

** TryGouram Attack: Kuuga on the TryGouram [[Ramming Always Works|rams a Grongi]].

* [[For Happiness]]

* [[Multiform Balance]]

** [[Super Mode]]: '''Ultimate''' Form

* [[Reluctant Warrior]]: Hates fighting, but due to the Grongi threat has no choice but to.

* [[Super Senses]]: Pegasus Form enhances all of Godai's senses. Unfortunately, these hightened sense are ''so'' sensitive that he can only maintain Pegasus for about fifty seconds before he suffers [[Sensory Overload]] and is forced to change out of it.

* [[Weapon of Choice]]

 

== Supporting Cast ==

* [[Badass Longcoat]]

* [[Badass Normal]]: And ''how''.

 

-----

The ruler of the Grongi tribe. He is the first Grongi to be awoken and was the one to revive all 200 of the rest of his tribe (although he slaughtered a large number of them as they were too weak to fight Kuuga). Dubbed Unidentified Life Form 0, Daguba took the form of a young man in white towards the end of the series once Kuuga defeated the Zu, Me and Go tribes. Towards the finale, he attempted to bring about the 'Ultimate Darkness' to turn humans into a violent race like the Grongi. Yuusuke eventually confronted Daguba in the mountains and after cracking each other's belts, were both forced into their human forms where they fought hand-to-hand. In the end, despite dealing Yuusuke a critical blow, Daguba was killed.

 

* [[Big Bad]]

* [[Man in White]]: To the point of glowing.

 

 

 

* [[Acting for Two]]: The same guy plays both Zu-Baduu-Ba's and Go-Badaa-Ba's human forms.

* [[Evil Counterpart]]: Along with Daguba, both Go-Badaa-Ba and Go-Gadoru-Ba parallel Kuuga in different ways. Badaa, like Kuuga, is a [[Badass Biker]] whose animal tattoo just so happens to be the motif of the [[Mythology Gag|first Kamen Rider]]. Gadoru, as the leader of the Go Tribe, is able to change between forms, five in total, each paralleling one of Kuuga's base four forms and his Rising form. It also helps that his animal motif is a [[Japanese Beetle Brothers|rhinoceros-beetle]].

* [[Eye Scream]]: Zu-Mebio-Da is shot in the eye by police, with bloody results.
