Kamen Rider Kuuga	comment	Kamen Rider Kuuga is the tenth television series in Toei Company's Kamen Rider franchise, the first installment in the franchise's televised run in the Heisei Era after an eleven-year hiatus, and the first to be made at the Turn of the Millennium. It ran on TV Asahi from 2000 to 2001.When a group of archaeologists uncover the tomb of a legendary warrior, they accidentally unleash a race of monsters called the Grongi. These creatures immediately embark on a number of killing sprees across Japan, using increasingly ritualistic and specific methods of murder which leave the police dumbfounded as to their motives.Enter Yusuke Godai, your typical everyday Nice Guy save for the fact that he's mastered 1999 skills. While in town visiting one of his friends at her archaeology lab, he is caught in the middle of a Grongi attack and sees the Arcle: a mysterious stone artifact recovered from the warrior's tomb. Overwhelmed by his desire to protect everyone, Yusuke instinctively dons the Arcle and has it absorbed into his body. Thereafter, by summoning the Arcle from within himself, Yusuke can use its power to transform into the legendary warrior known only as "Kuuga".While the power of Kuuga is incredibly weak to begin with, Yusuke learns to use his instincts and desires to unlock additional forms, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Yet as the battles against the Grongi intensify, can Yusuke handle the strain of fighting upon his mind and body? Could he lose himself to the Kuuga power and become a mindless killing machine?Kuuga is notable for being the first Kamen Rider TV series since the end of Kamen Rider BLACK RX in 1989 (following a few stand-alone movies released during the 90s), and a successful modern reboot of a classic Toei franchise.Partnered with the Super Sentai show Mirai Sentai Timeranger after initially airing alongside the final episodes of Kyūkyū Sentai GoGoV in what would later be known as the Super Hero Time block.In addition to the main series, Televi Kun magazine also released a Bonus Episode called Kamen Rider Kuuga vs. the Strong Monster Go·Jiino·Da. In 2014, series writer Toshiki Inoue teamed up with manga artist Hitotsu Yokoshima to create a manga adaptation of Kuuga, featuring a Setting Update to The New '10s and an art style inspired by the Super Imaginative Chogokin line of action figures.In 2020, Shout! Factory licensed Kuuga for broadcast on their TokuSHOUTsu channel on Pluto TV and for livestreaming via their website, making it the first Heisei Kamen Rider to be legally available for streaming audiences in the USA. Then, in July of 2022, they announced that Kuuga would be released on blu-ray on September 20 of that year, making it the second Kamen Rider series to be released on home video in the U.S. after ''Kamen Rider Zero-One".Followed by its indirect sequel Kamen Rider Agito.Voted #4 series in the Heisei era and #4 product overall in NHK’s All Kamen Rider Popularity Vote.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_112890b3	comment	Secret Identity: For the first part of the series, only a small number of people like Ichijo and Sakurako are aware that Yusuke is Kuuga; the police mistakenly believe he's a Grongi (hence labelling him "ULF Number 4") and don't entirely trust him. Granted, Yusuke is very cavalier about the whole thing, gladly telling people that he's Kuuga — it's just that nobody except Sakurako even knows that Kuuga is "Number 4". As the story progresses more people join the circle of trust, and the police finally accept that he's on their side, even letting him sit in on briefings.

And then Daguva kills him in an instant, showing Yusuke that Daguva is much stronger than anticipated. Also, want to make the Grongi of the week seem really powerful? Have it leave devastating (sometimes visible) marks on Titan form, which could previously tank anything without even flinching.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_17ce80aa	comment	All There in the Manual: None of Kuuga's forms are given official names in the show aside from referring to them by color, nor are any of his finishers named. We get to hear them in Kamen Rider Decade, though, because the Decadriver announces the rider and form as he uses other Riders' powers. "Kamen Ride: Kuuga! Form Ride: Kuuga Pegasus!" Kuuga and Agito are legendary for this; half of the backstory, especially about the Linto Tribe, is scattered over all sorts of supplementary material.

The TryChaser 2000 has a detachable accelerator grip, kept separate from the bike itself (likely to keep it from being stolen from the police). Kuuga can detach the grip and transform it into the Titan Sword, Titan Form's weapon. The BeatChaser 2000 maintains this design element from its predecessor.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_251bbe0e	type	Genre Blindness
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_251bbe0e	comment	Genre Blindness: As powerful as they are, the Grongi are NOT very smart. Despite Kuuga having a near-100% win rate against them, not a single Grongi ever hesitates to fight Kuuga when they run into him. Instead, they just run in and get themselves killed. Every. Single. Time. Possibly justified, since they're an entire race of Blood Knights and they see defeating Kuuga as an act that proves they are the best of the tribe. Sometimes justified with Grongi like Xu·Zain·Da (#22, the Rhino Grongi) who was arrogant and reckless even by Grongi standards to begin with, but not for all of them. Xu·Goma·Gu (#3, the Bat Grongi) actively ignores his status as the resident Butt-Monkey, often demanding La·Baruba·De (B1, a.k.a. "the Rose-Tattooed Woman") for a chance at the Gegeru, only to be turned down just as firmly. Goma later falls into Too Dumb to Live territory when he powers himself up with a piece of Daguva's armor and decides to challenge Daguva himself with it. It didn't end well. Another explanation is that they're attempting to exploit It Only Works Once. The Grongi had to be revived specifically as a result of having fought a Kuuga in the past, who at least a couple note was a better warrior than the present-day iteration, so they may just think they've got an edge this time around...

The Final Battle consists of Kuuga and Daguva delievering one of these to each other. By the end both are beaten and bloody and Daguva is ultimately beaten to death.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag Not only is there a spider monster in the first episode (a recurring element in Kamen Rider in general), but all Grongi have their own uniform belt buckles, much like the classic Shocker mooks and monsters do. Also a bat monster in the second episode, which is also a recurring monster with Kamen Rider in general, though not as much as the Spider. On top of that, just as the original series, whose first two monsters were a spider and a bat, was followed by Kamen Rider V3 whose first two monsters were a turtle and a jaguar, Kuuga's successor Agito's first two monster sets are big cats and turtles. At one point Yusuke starts wearing a T-shirt with the Kuuga symbol on it, much like Jou Shigeru and his Stronger shirts. Ultimate Kuuga and Daguva's face-off somewhat echoes that of Black Sun and Shadow Moon. Kuuga's red form being called #4 can be seen as a continuation of the original three riders being #1, #2 and V3. Sakurako and Jean are based out of Jounan University, the same college where Takeshi Hongo studied; #40 takes it further by having Yusuke, Sakurako, and Enokida mention a "Professor Hongo", who had Big Ol' Eyebrows and a deep voice (Yusuke's impression sounding a lot like Hiroshi Fujioka), implying that they're talking about the original Rider.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_30c40e9a	type	Deconstructor Fleet
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_30c40e9a	comment	Deconstructor Fleet: It's not a full deconstruction but it has a lot of subversive elements, like the monsters from the past not being able to speak Japanese, to the fact that cops are heavily involved. The cops themselves show what would happen if normal people dealing with monsters would be like—a lot of dead bodies, though down the line, they're not as useless as they were in the beginning. Most Tokusatsu and Shonen shows gloss over elements like these, and in addition common shonen tropes like Calling Your Attacks are avoided by Kuuga. The motivation of the monsters isn't even spelled out to us until a bit down the line. Hell, Kuuga growing in power is treated as a scary thing and causes problems later in the series. The overall theme of the show is that if violence is a necessary tool to fighting violence, how and when will it be enough to stop? There are many other examples if you look at the series, while the show can be viewed as a standard toku, if you compare it to later series and even earlier series, it can be rather jarring. In short, the director was apparently going for a "Kamen Rider X-Files" feel. Reconstruction: However, the show still showcases inspiring heroism Kuuga embodies, the importance of teamwork and the people around you, becoming stronger is good so long as you can control your power and use it for good, to always keep your hope in the darkest times and at the end, humanity will always win out against an inhuman evil. Unbuilt Trope: These tropes wouldn't be a major staple of the Kamen Rider franchise until after this show, with the next show treating its Riders growing in power to be a good thing.

(Then again, there are also the Ra class, who aid in keeping score for the Monster of the Week and the Nu class, who build weapons) This is justified by the "league" system that the Grongi have: the victor of the "Zu" class games gets promoted to "Me" class, the winner of the "Me" games is promoted to "Go" class and the winner of the "Go" games fights the sole member of the "N" class for supremacy.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_36249acd	comment	Lethal Joke Character: Yusuke at one point succeeds at defeating a Grongi (see Kiss of Death) using Growing Form. Granted, he needed to use the considerably feeble Growing Kick three times, but it still ended in Kuuga's favour. It must be noted also that Growing Form isn't just "not powerful enough" (like many other Joke Character forms). It has all the weaknesses of the other forms, and none of the advantages: Titan Form's slowness, Dragon Form's inferiority at hand-to-hand combat, Pegasus Form's physical feebleness, and Mighty Form's lack of any weapon. Fortunately, each of these weakness on their own are scaled back compared to their respective Forms. The result is effectively Kuuga at his weakest, but is at least able to defend himself against a Grongi. To actually either kill a Grongi or protect a civilian, Kuuga needs his four basic Forms beyond Growing.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_41c08e5	comment	Establishing Series Moment: To compliment the above, the first fight Kuuga has is while he's still weak and confused, with Growing Form Kuuga nearly getting himself killed and barely saving Ichijo. This shows that not only is the hero not your average toku hero, who would just pick up his Transformation Trinket and beat up his first monster with ease, but that normal humans are only slightly less capable of kicking as much mutant-bad-guy ass as the hero. Also, unlike other shows that feature the police being useless or otherwise ineffective, the police will play a major and effective role in the show.

The Grongi between #6 and #14 are killed between #6 and #7. The Grongi between #14 and #21 are killed between #8 and #9. The Grongi between #26 and #31 are killed between #20 and #21. The Grongi between #31 and #36 are killed between #22 and #23. Lastly, Daguva slaughters a good 150 Grongi off-screen before he confronts Kuuga. The corpse of one of his victims is found by the police.

Kuuga is officially designated "Unidentified Life Form No.4" by the police, but he couldn't be more a of heroic boyscout even if he tried. Played straight by Go·Jalaji·Da's killing method; it takes four days for his victims to die after being attacked, which leads to some victims to commit suicide, which forfeits part of his game.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_471fdb9e	type	Defeat Equals Explosion
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_471fdb9e	comment	Defeat Equals Explosion: A justified and more elaborated example: Kuuga's Finishing Moves create an impact point in the target Grongi's body, from which cracks spread across the body. Once this reaches and destroys their buckle, the Grongi explodes. This becomes somewhat problematic as Kuuga's power increases and the blast radius along with it. This becomes a plot point again when Daguva kills Goma, which does not result in an explosion...which leads to the development of the Nerve Breaking Bullets since the police now have an intact Grongi corpse to study instead of just burnt chunks. Averted with the second coming of Me·Ginoga·De. After Ginoga was destroyed by Kuuga's Growing Kick, Ginoga's arm survived the explosion and regenerated into a Mutant body. As this incarnation of Ginoga lacks an Amadam belt, it does not explode when finished off by Kuuga's Mighty Kick, instead melting into a puddle of ooze. Grongis that were killed by Nerve-Breaking Bullet near the end (La·Baruba·De and La·Dorudo·Gu) also don't explode either.

Mind, the random object must bear some resemblance to the weapon it transforms into. Not a problem for Dragon (rod—any handy stick) and Titan (sword—the Trychaser's detachable handlebar will work, something used later in Kamen Rider 555), but Pegasus needs an actual gun—usually Ichijo's, which necessitates Yusuke's cooperation with the police instead of simply acting out on his own. As the series progresses it's shown that several Grongi can do this as well, turning the charms hanging off their bodies into weapons like harpoons, swords, and maces.

The low-tier Xu class has the rules set upon them by Baruba (the "referee"), while the higher-ranking Me and Go class can set the limitations themselves. Examples include targeting only male students from a specific high school, killing people by running them over with a truck (driven backwards), or leaving hints for the police to find. What makes the Grongi so horrifying is that even with these restrictions, several of them still manage to kill dozens (or sometimes even hundreds) of people.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_8f1ec2c5	comment	It must be noted also that Growing Form isn't just "not powerful enough" (like many other Joke Character forms). It has all the weaknesses of the other forms, and none of the advantages: Titan Form's slowness, Dragon Form's inferiority at hand-to-hand combat, Pegasus Form's physical feebleness, and Mighty Form's lack of any weapon. Fortunately, each of these weakness on their own are scaled back compared to their respective Forms. The result is effectively Kuuga at his weakest, but is at least able to defend himself against a Grongi. To actually either kill a Grongi or protect a civilian, Kuuga needs his four basic Forms beyond Growing.

Furthermore, he cannot transform again for two hours due to sensory overload and exhaustion. Although it's not explicitly mentioned until after it no longer becomes an issue for Yusuke, he could at first only assume the Rising forms for 30 seconds. Rising Pegasus adds the two timers together, letting him stay in the form for a total of 80 seconds.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_99db72ee	comment	Immune to Bullets: Played Straight at first. The police try to fight the Grongi with their regular pistols. It doesn't work out well. Then this is subverted. Japanese police carry .38 revolvers; special permission and training is required for anything stronger, so this isn't very surprising. With some serious upgrades and changes to the rules, by the end of the series regular humans with guns are able to kill high-level Grongi with some effort. The problem isn't whether the bullets will pierce - rifle rounds will, even early on - but actual stopping power. The Grongi are tough enough that simply shooting them proves to just annoy them, so the police have to upgrade up to 'Nerve-Severing Bullets', and even those only work while they're inside the body. They're also not invulnerable to eye shots, as seen with Xu·Mebio·Da, who was shot with a handgun. Kuuga as well. He fights Xu·Mebio·Da while the police are unloading at both of them, and he later calmly describes the experience as feeling 'prickly' and awful. There is one exception to this. Apparently the police got lucky and somehow caused Unidentified Lifeform #12 (Xu·Nezuma·Da, who appeared during the first timeskip) to blow up with normal bullets... However, what caused the explosion is not the bullet, but the explosive energy inserted into Nezuma by Baruba when the time is up of Nezuma's Gegeru.

Oh, and he's also a grasshopper Grongi, and wears Shotaro Ishinomori's infamous afro-like haircut. Shinzo is shown in the 19th episode.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb2195d9	type	Rousseau Was Right
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb2195d9	comment	Rousseau Was Right: Pretty much the theme of the whole series. Also the reason why Godai keeps fighting for everyone and why the Grongi didn't succeed on having humanity embrace brutality and violence like they do.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb27c1f2	type	Sealed Good in a Can
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb27c1f2	comment	Sealed Good in a Can: We eventually learn that Riku, the original Kuuga from way back when, sealed himself into the sarcophagus to be this. This was in fact an And I Must Scream situation... that Riku took upon himself anyway, just in case the Grongi ever came back. Unfortunately, Daguva got the first hit in, and forced Kuuga back into his human form, whose body was not immune to the passage of time... but since he's the sort of guy that willingly became Kuuga in the first place, he seems to have been getting up to fight anyway before dying.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb7b1a84	type	Multiform Balance
Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_eb7b1a84	comment	Multiform Balance: After Black RX introduced the Swiss-Army Hero concept to the franchise, Kuuga was the first series to really embrace it. Kuuga starts as a Joke Character in Growing Form before adopting the Jack of All Stats Mighty Form as his default; then he gets the Fragile Speedster Dragon Form, Glass Cannon Pegasus Form, and Mighty Glacier Titan Form. All forms (except for Growing) then get a more powerful "Rising" variant, and Mighty gets a second, even more powerful Lightning Bruiser version called Amazing Mighty Form. His final form in the series is the Ultimate Form Super Mode, and Kamen Rider Decade's version of Kuuga gets an upgrade to that as well as Rising Ultimate Form.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_ed46da54	comment	Martial Pacifist: Several times throughout the series, Yusuke says that he hates the sensation of punching another person; however, he's the only person who's capable of defeating the Grongi and preventing them from slaughtering even more people, so he still fights.

Kamen Rider Kuuga / int_f8961fd8	comment	Fashion-Victim Villain: In-Universe. Many of the Grongi dress like they ran through a pile of discarded clothing and actual trash, like plastic "ascots" and armbands fashioned from metal signs. Justified to a degree in that they're an ancient society and aren't going to be all that in touch with modern human customs. However, the further Kuuga gets along in fighting each group, it's revealed that the more powerful ones have acclimated far better to human fashion than their weaker counterparts, with this trope fully discarded by the time he confronts the Go group.

This always results with people confusing the Kamen Rider with famous actors, players and even a country (Cuba). Ichijou's coworkers assuming he has a girlfriend, and often ignoring his protests that he doesn't.

Telescoping Staff: Dragon Form. Rising Dragon Form gets a two-ended spear. Blow Gun: Pegasus Form. Rising Pegasus gets a BFG. Big Cool Sword: Titan Form. Rising Titan allows Kuuga the option of Dual Wielding two Rising Titan Swords.
