How Hayato Ichimonji Changed Kamen Rider

[@ride-playerbb2818]

For someone who pretty much made the franchise what it is today, Nigo has to be one of the most underrated Riders of all time

[@LegitMan335]

Respect ✊

[@shaunharn1998]

If they gave him a different costume maybe he would be more recognizable it doesn't make sense that by the end of the show they both have the exact same costume with just different gloves

[@sayansaha155]

​@@shaunharn1998 that was the point. They are called the Double Riders for a reason. Ichimonji is as much of a primary rider as hongo is.

[@soulkong]

@Sayan Saha yeah but whenever people see the design, people think of Takeshi not Hayato

[@sayansaha155]

@@soulkong well...that was a mistake. Although, Nigo does have distinguishable features. Oh well.

[@Nameless-ln5mr]

One thing that makes Hayato stick in my mind is the fact that he’s the first Rider who transformed by yelling the ever iconic “HENSHIN!”

[@ricardodavis4730]

The first Kamen Rider toy I ever owned was a Rider 2, with the red gloves and boots. After that, I got a die cast toy for Rider 2 from Kamen Rider The First. It always came back to Hayato!

[@HayataShin]

@@ricardodavis4730 Most of the kids in 1971 learn about Kamen Rider as the Old Nigo, green gloves and boots with silver line. The Old Ichigo was kind of unpopular at the time

[@phantomknightpercival120]

Takeshi Hongo may have been the iconic face of the Kamen Rider franchise. But Hayayo Ichimonji is literally the hero of the franchise. The real reason why Kamen Rider stayed on the air for so long.

[@dgvanz1155]

It was just such a random twist of fate and fearless improvisation that gave the series the boost it needed to become a franchise.

[@jesseowenvillamor6348]

Agree

[@michaelhill1256]

Good thing too.

[@bobbyshaddoe3004]

His character was hastily and swiftly introduced to give the original actor that played Hongo time to recuperate from injuries he sustained from a motorcycle stunt gone wrong. It is possible that the character of Ichimonji was part of the series bible and had been intended to be introduced later In the series, and it's likely the accident just accelerated Ichimonji's introduction.

[@PHjerome802]

also, Takeshi Sasaki is a hero off-cam. He saved some people from a burning apartment, and sustained injuries which forced him to be away from showbiz for a long while.

[@OmegaChase1002]

During my binge, I spent the entire time just waiting for Hongo to return. But once he did, I began to miss Hayato and wanted to see him more. You just can't have one without the other.

[@shaunharn1998]

That's exactly how I felt when I started watching the series a few months back! Since episode 14 I been wanting and waiting for Hongo to come back but once he came back for good, I started to miss and think Hayato is more interesting though Hongo is still my favorite

[@finnality]

To be honest, Hayato is my favourite Showa Rider, his character is a big contrast to Takeshi, more emotional, more fun, more relatable. I really enjoyed him as the main Rider and his departure from the position of the show lead was sad for me, but the series only became better with every episode since then. It's hard to imagine what would we have if there never were Kamen Rider Nigo at all

[@HayataShin]

his cheerful character is one of the many reasons that made the Kamen Rider show from unpopular to very popular

[@acebear4710]

One reason to like this show: Simplicity. I don't know about everyone else but I simply love the basic fisticuffs done by the hero and villains. Fav kaijin during this tenure: Kanibubbler. I love how Hayato immediately points the bubble firing weapon at the kaijin without hesitation. I don't see this in modern shows where the hero utilize whatever he can grab his hands on instead of sticking to his character weapons.

[@scribblerjones]

I agree. I love the Showa Era Riders because their battles with the bad guys feels more like some good old fashioned scraps, not so many special effects and flashing lights and all. I felt more invested and involved as a result - it made more of an impression on me seeing the Rider throw hands and fold a whole squad of grunts before a big fistfight with the kaiju, than seeing a lot of CGI depicting the battle.

[@logicaltips4107]

@@scribblerjones this is why I enjoy modern Ultraman more than modern Kamen Rider. Less swords and more scruffy cqc fights

[@scribblerjones]

@@logicaltips4107 I haven't started watching Ultraman yet - right now, I'm going through Showa Era Super Sentai and Kamen Rider - but I look forward to seeing what modern Ultraman has to offer. The gaudy swords, excessive gimmicks (like the book things in KR Saber or the Eyecons of Ghost) and all the SFX kinda take me out of it. I love that gritty, good-old-fashioned two fisted action.

[@WiiMan25]

Yeah, I loved that pretty much every episode had Hongo/Ichimonji take up a Shocker Combatman's sword.

[@UniversalNinjaZAWARUDO]

Another is the music

[@HayataShin]

Did anyone also mention the disappearance of Hongo Takeshi actor in ep 60? It was during New Ichigo, when it was even more popular than the Nigo and right before the 2nd movie came out. The actor DISAPPEARED without explanation. (He wanted to act in other TV show but it was decided that Kamen Rider show will be extended, ended up 98 episodes. It was too long to him and perhaps he protested.) Toei team did not know where he was (until now no one knows). That was the reason that the supposed to be new Shocker Kaijin in Movie 2 FIRST APPEARED in TV episode 66 to buy one week's time since they were trying to postpone the filming of an important episode: The return and defeat of Dr. Death. Then that new kaijin became an old kaijin in the movie (technically be a new kaijin twice). Also, Originally Dr. Death's identity was supposed to be the shark kaijin (it even has the collar of Dr. Death's cape on its neck! It also has a GOLD Shocker Belt.) but that shark kaijin also became a regular kaijin in 67 to buy another extra week of time. Finally, the actor of Hongo decided to come back, apologized, and promised to be a good Kamen Rider until the end. Hence finally they can film the important episode, but Dr. Death's identity had changed from a shark to a squid kaijin in ep 68. (and yes, they add Dr.Death's cape collar on squid kaijin's neck) In those several episodes, Hongo was absented in the show, the FBI Taki took on the main role just like ep 11, the henshined Kamen Rider showed up much more often, just like ep 11-13. and Rider has an obvious different voice just like ep 11-13. Btw the Gold Belt of Shark Kaijin was supposed to be a one time thing for Dr. Death's true idenetity, but they had to change the gold belt into regular afterwards to say that they are powered up Shocker kaijins, and the shark kaijin was only the first powered-up kaijin.

[@bigtacotime4382]

hayato started the rider drip. look at this man's clothes!

[@thantrus]

This was a really good break down on Ichimonji and his tenure as Kamen Rider. I absolutely love the original series. I love both Hongo and Ichimonji separately, but I love it most of all when they team up as The Double Riders. I kind of see them as a package deal, tbh

[@hernanvera9202]

[@dragoredrox7493]

Hayato just had this overall swagger about him, cool and collective and like just the best brawler. When it came to shocker fights with hongo he would out finesse them and use his powers in unique ways. With a lot of hayatos fights he would just go toe to toe with his foes.

[@NegaKill13]

I think Hayato is way underrated, he's way overshadowed and wasn't given the recognition that he deserves just because he's number 2, it's kinda sad. I want him to appear on screen in new series or movies in his human form along side Takeshi. maybe he can also have his Final form like Ichigo.

Without Hayato / Nigo Rider, Most of us would not have even heard of Kamen Rider today!

[@HayataShin]

Exactly! Kamen Rider would become just a short lived hero among many in Japan of the 70s.

[@HayataShin]

Hongo received all the spot light only because he was TEN Episodes senior than Ichimonji, (There were 13 episodes for Hongo, but he did not show up at all but stock footage from ep.11-13, the FBI Taki was introduced to cover his plot in one episode.) And at one point, Ichimonji was THE Kamen Rider for 39 (!) Episodes (ep.14-52+Movie 1). 39 VS 10 or 13... He was not Nigo Rider as there was no concept of Ichigo Nigo until ep 40. Ichimonji was simply THE Kamen Rider, a new Kamen Rider.

[@ChaosMarioBros1]

A little nitpick that I have with No.2 is that, to set him apart from No.1, they added a single stripe on the Rider suit. That's all good. Until Ichigo gets a redesigned suit with two stripes. It's perplexing (and a bit annoying) that No. 1 has two stripes and No. 2 has one.

[@DragoonMS]

Then they tweaked his suit in other ways: a lighter green almost silver helmet, the red gloves & boots, etc.

[@dragoredrox7493]

I actually liked Hayatos design -the red belt and single silver stripes somehow matched his powerhouse theme more than Hongos white belt dual silver stripe all over the place look.

[@wychan7574]

I hate the stripes which make the costume look a sport wear. The old no. 1 design is the best with it's dark, primitive feeling.

[@MirrorMan81]

Although the first 13 episodes and some other details during the series are interesting, but episode 84 is my favorite. It was in this episode that creator Ishinomori Shotaro himself directed and wrote the script. Unfortunately it was the only episode he participated as director and writer, but we can see a lot of interesting things in this episode; basically it's like using elements of the manga in this episode, the differential narrative and memorable camera angles. I would like the creator to participate more in the series, imagine what else he could accomplish.

[@dragonbricks7086]

Watched Kamen Rider back in the 80s. Honestly I do not remember much of the series, but I remember the reason Rider 1 originally had to ride his bike to change. The fan on his belt had to spin at certain speed and needed moving air created by riding the bike. Rider 2's belt needed less moving air and the air movement created by him jumping was enough to transform. Didn't Shocker create 5 Kamen Rider copies with different colored scarfs? Probably their best monsters

[@KubernetePirata]

It was so long time ago I can hardly remember if I've watched Hongo or Ichimonji. But if my memory serves me right, at 1st I was skeptical, but it turns out Ichimonji episodes were more entertaining. I thought I might not like the change, but I did. Again, it was so long ago, I think I'm still blurred about the episodes. But 1 of the things I remember, I like how darker Hongo episodes were. Ichimonji was more fun & resembles to much of the latter riders, but Hongo was darker.
