Behind the Scenes[]
Concept Art[]
Another Agito was designed by Yutaka Izubuchi (出渕 裕, Izubuchi Yutaka).
Notes[]
- Another Agito is predated by an actual Kamen Rider Another Agito. This is the first case of an Another Rider to recycle suits due to the previous existence of a character with a similar name (though coincidental). Although the suit has been retooled, there are a few minor differences:
- The chest plate is labeled with the original Rider's name and the Another Rider's date of creation like the other Another Riders
- The Ank Point's color is changed to have bright gold and red accents instead of dull gold and blue accents.
- The suit uses a new head with longer crests, diamond-shaped ridges on the sides, a sharper chin, and new eyes that are similar to other Another Riders.
- Another Agito, like the other Another Riders' hosts, serves as the antithesis to Shoichi Tsugami. Shouichi was an amnesiac who eventually embraces the power of Agito and achieve a simple life even though he's a product of human evolution. The Another Agito completely lost his identity after receiving the Agito Anotherwatch and became a mindless creature following the Time Jackers' orders.
- In contrast to the actual Another Agito, Kaoru Kino was initially jaded and detached from reality by being Another Agito that led him in his attempt to defeat Shouichi. After his defeat by Ryo Ashihara, it leads to his eventual change of heart and fighting alongside with the Riders. This Another Agito is a twisted reflection of what Kino could have become if his Agito power was corrupted by his prolonged madness and grandiose delusions.
- The Power of Agito was a gift from the OverLord of Light so that humanity can evolve beyond the OverLord of Darkness's control. On the other hand, Another Agito spreads its power to people like a virus, dooming humanity to become mindless monsters under the control of the Time Jackers, effectively ensuring the suppression of the human race.
- While most Another Riders tended to exhibit traits or powers based on the monsters they fought, Another Agito displayed a corrupted/inverse form of the power that made the Lords target humans, spreading the "power" of Agito like a virus, and turning others into Another Agito.
- An inverse to the M.O. of Lords, Another Agito attacked ordinary humans and spread the power, whereas Lords only attacked those with the power of Agito and considered otherwise a taboo.
- Ironically, the carriers of the original Power of Agito would potentially commit suicide, out of fear of their powers, whereas being infected would justify a preferred death.
- Due to a shortage of Another Agito heads during filming, several Another Agitos have been seen with retooled heads of other monsters with grasshopper motifs in the Kamen Rider franchise such as the Batta Yummy, Grasshopper Monster, Kamakiri Yummy, and Soldier Ant Amazon instead. Furthermore, the second victim reused the original Another Agito's head.
- Like Another Double, Another Agito is the second Another Rider whose human identities are either unseen or unnamed.[1]
