The Transformation Holy Sword Fuusouken Hayate (変身聖剣 風双剣翠風, Henshin Seiken Fūsōken Hayate, lit. "Wind Twin Sword Green Wind")[1] is the transformation device and personal weapon of Kamen Rider Kenzan.
Design[]
The Fuusouken Hayate is composed of the following parts:
- Counter Hilt (カウンターヒルト, Kauntā Hiruto): The handles. They possess a mechanism similar to a flywheel and have the role of increasing rotation speed when the Fuusouken Hayate is in Shuriken Mode.
- Hayate Trigger (ハヤテトリガー, Hayate Torigā): The trigger. When triggered, the Dogouken Gekido reads its user's intentions and initializes Rider Finishers, generating and controlling intense wind to enable the Fuusouken Hayate to fly.
- Fuusouken Hayate Emblem (風双剣翠風エンブレム, Fūsōken Hayate Enburemu): The connector point on the secondary blade. It is decorated with Kenzan's emblem. It can create a holy wind (聖なる風, seinaru kaze) that can dispel evil spirits and carry the breath of purity; in other words it is the source of the Fuusouken Hayate's wind.
- Hayate Shelf (ハヤテシェルフ, Hayate Sherufu): The area of the Fuusouken Hayate where a Wonder Ride Book is placed in. In addition to drawing power from the Wonder Ride Book and transmitting it to the Seiken, it also brings various abilities to the "Sword Robe" (Kenzan's bodysuit).
- Fuunzin (風雲刃, Fūunjin, lit. "Storm Blade"): The dull-colored blades. They have been sharpened by holy wind over several years, and they have the ability to become sharper and rotate even faster the more they cut through the air. In Ittouryu Mode, the two Fuunzin blades overlap to form an aerodynamic Ninjato-like blade.
- Jinpuzin (ジンプウジン, Jinpujin, lit. "Gust Blade"): The blades on the ends of the Fuusouken Hayate's Counter Hilts. They add destructive power to the Fuusouken Hayate's Shuriken Mode while it spins.
- Hayate Soul (ハヤテソウル, Hayate Sōru): The blade's bodies. They are blades that can carry wisdom. They can read and contain the lore of a Wonder Ride Book inserted into the Hayate Shelf and/or the Shingan Reader to initiate transformation and/or attacks. While the primary blade's Hayate Soul is yellow-green in color, the second blade's Hayate Soul is a dark green (contrasting the secondary blade's light green color).
- Shingan Reader (シンガンリーダー, Shingan Rīdā, lit. "Mind's Eye Reader"): The reading device located atop the Hayate Shelf. By pressing the special speed-reading metal fitting Spireader located on the back cover of a Wonder Ride Book against it, the Fuusouken Hayate can read the book's lore. As a result, it becomes possible to temporarily hold all the power of the Wonder Ride Book's lore in the Seiken for finishing attacks. Additionally, attack power can be stacked when a Wonder Ride Book is pressed against it several times.
Modes[]
The Fuusouken Hayate has three modes: Ittouryu Mode (一刀流モード, Ittōryū Mōdo, lit "One Sword Mode"), Nitouryu Mode (二刀流モード, Nitōryū Mōdo, lit "Two Sword Mode") and Shuriken Mode (手裏剣モード, Shuriken Mōdo, lit "Throwing Star Mode").
Functionality[]
Transformation[]
To transform, the user plugs a Wonder Ride Book into the slot on the side of the sword before converting it to its Nitouryu Mode or, alternatively, pulling the trigger. The user then performs a diagonal 'X' slash that takes the form of a shuriken, before a cyclone from the Wonder Ride Book circles him and forms the armor, with the slashes forming the visor, completing the transformation.
A possible variation of this transformation sequence includes the user appearing in a library surrounded by whirlwind and leaves. As the user converts the Fuusouken into its Nitouryu mode, a lime-green energy shuriken appears from the book projection behind the user as the user performs a diagonal 'X' slash that takes the form of a turquoise shuriken. The lime green shuriken and several Japanese Kanji then form the armor and the turquoise shuriken forms the visor, thus completing the transformation.
By removing the inserted book and repeating the process with a different one, Kenzan can enhance their armor without cancelling their transformation.
Finisher[]
- Main article: Reading Finishers
To activate a finisher, the user scans another book in the slot on the other side of the sword before pulling the trigger. The scanning can be done up to three times.
Shippū Kenbu Ichiren (疾風剣舞 一連 lit. "Hurricane Sword Dance One Sequence")
Kenzan summons the apparitions of 3 Little Pig Brothers that start building 3 separate brick walls to surround the enemy while Kenzan runs around the walls to confuse the said enemy. Kenzan then delivers a surprise attack to the enemy after hiding behind one of those walls.
Kenzan charges Fuusouken Hayate with lime green energy, then delivers a green and yellow horizontal slash to the enemy.
Kenzan charges Fuusouken Hayate with electricity, then delivers an electric slash that generates the Tri Cerberus God Beast.
Shippū Kenbu Itton (疾風剣舞 一豚 lit. "Hurricane Sword Dance One Pig")
Kenzan splits into 3 clones with 3 different shields before unleashing a barrage of slashes and kicks on enemy.
Shippū Kenbu Niren (疾風剣舞 二連 lit. "Hurricane Sword Dance Two Sequence")
This finisher has two variations.
- Kenzan is surrounded by green wind before he transforms into a pair of green energy shuriken which attack the enemy. He then appears behind the opponent while charging the Fuusouken Hayate with green energy and delivers deliver a final X-shaped energy slash with both blades.
- Kenzan performs a series of light and dark green energy slashes.
These finishers do not have names given by the Rider.
Sarutobi Ninjaden Hayate Sokudoku Geki (猿飛忍者伝翠風速読撃 ): This finisher has two variations:
- Sarutobi Ninjaden: Kenzan leaps into the air and performs a flying kick.
- Ninja Jackun: Kenzan swings the Fuusouken Hayate, launching a column of green wind.
Shippū Kenbu Kaiten (疾風剣舞 回転 lit. "Hurricane Sword Dance Spinning")
This finisher has four variations.
- A green tornado surrounds Kenzan before he throws Fuusouken Hayate at the enemy. The weapon then multiplies into several green-energy shurikens to attack the said enemy. While the enemy gets distracted by the shuriken projections, Kenzan then perform a spinning downward slash to finish the enemy off, surrounded by a light-green cyclone.
- Kenzan delivers a light-green cyclone to the enemy.
- Kenzan throws the Fuusouken Hayate at the enemy before the weapon transforms into green-energy shurikens that attack the opponent several times.
- Green wind flows into the emblem at the center of Fuusouken Hayate before Kenzan swings it, launching a large green energy shuriken at the enemy
Kenzan throws Fuusouken Hayate, which deflects an enemy's attack before spawning two green energy copies of itself. The two copies then fly into the enemy while spinning like saws.
Shippū Kenbu Santon (疾風剣舞 三豚 lit. "Hurricane Sword Dance Three Pig"): Kenzan splits into three clones, with one wielding Fuusouken in its Ittouryu Mode, another wielding it in its Nitouryu Mode, and the third wielding it in its Shuriken Mode. The three clones charge their weapons with green energy. The clone wielding the Shuriken Mode jumps into the air and spins while surrounded by green wind, launching energy shurikens in all directions. At the same time, the other two clones run through a crowd while slashing before jumping up and launching green energy slashes.
Wonder Ride Book[]
Wonder World Story of Fuusouken Hayate Wonder Ride Book (ワンダーワールド物語風双剣翠風ワンダーライドブック, Wandā Wārudo Monogatari Fūsōken Hayate Wandā Raido Bukku) is based on Fuusouken Hayate.[2]
Behind The Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
The Fuusouken Hayate is voiced by Akio Otsuka (大塚 明夫, Ōtsuka Akio), who has voiced various characters in Super Sentai, including Hades God Dagon in Mahou Sentai Magiranger and Champ/Oushi Black in Uchu Sentai Kyuranger. The vocal section is provided by singer Eizo Sakamoto (坂本 英三, Sakamoto Eizou).[3]
Notes[]
- The Fuusouken Hayate is the second weapon after the Zikan Despear to have three modes.
- Additionally, it is the first weapon in Kamen Rider Saber to have more than one form.
- After one of the swords was sealed, Ren simply pulls the trigger to transform rather than separating the two swords and only uses the Fuusouken Hayate in its Ittouryu Mode.[Chapter 33: Still, the Future Can Change.] This means that unlike most swordsmen with only one sword, a user can transform unless both swords are sealed.
- In the DX Toyline, a DX Wonder Ride Book can fit into the entire slot of the Fuusouken Hayate. In the series, the book only takes up a quarter of the sword's slot due to the prop size.
