G.O.D. General Commander (GOD総司令, Goddo Sō Shirei) is the mystery man who commands the monsters using various objects with tape recorders which record his commands.
Behind the scenes[]
Portrayal[]
The G.O.D. General Commander was voiced by Osamu Saka (阪 脩, Saka Osamu).
Identity[]
Though directing G.O.D.'s monsters in the first half of the series, in the second half he stopped appearing without explanation and was replaced by Kingdark, which was itself revealed to be merely a mecha piloted by Dr. Noroi (Ayao Wada (和田 文夫, Wada Ayao)). Though the earlier General Commander's relationship with Dr. Noroi is never defined in the TV series, the S.I.C. Hero Saga novel Kamen Rider X: Son of Zeus takes the view that the two leaders are one and the same. The Kamen Rider Zukan notes the speculation that Dr. Noroi is the General Commander, but claims the General Commander's true identity is still a mystery.
Alternative names[]
In the draft scripts for X, the G.O.D. General Commander was alternately known as Demon Zeus (デーモンゼウス, Dēmon Zeusu), befitting the Greek mythology motif of G.O.D.'s earlier monsters, and Demon Commander (デーモン司令, Dēmon Shirei).[1] The former name was adopted by Mitsuru Suguya's adaptation of X.
