Category:Henchmen

"Henchmen", or refered to the Japanese audiences as "Combatant" (戦闘員), are a group of soldiers that a Kamen Rider faces and dispatches with ease compared to the monster that he has to destroy that are leading the soldiers into battle against the Rider.

Kamen Rider's sister franchise, Super Sentai has a better following of this application, as the use of Henchmen (referred to as Foot Soldiers) is far more common in Super Sentai.

The use of Henchmen in Kamen Rider was mainly in the Showa Era, and had appeared periodically in the Heisei Era.
