 This article is about a movie-exclusive villain in Kamen Rider OOO.
|
Template:Villaininfo Giru (ギル) is the original incarnation of the Kyoryu Greeed (恐竜グリード, Kyōryū Gurīdo, Dinosaur Greeed). He has aspects of a pteranodon, a triceratops, and a tyrannosaurus. Unlike the other Greeed, he was never seen and only physically appeared as ten purple Core Medals that were kept under lock and key by the Kougami Foundation, before they were stolen by Kiyoto Maki. These Core Medals proved to still house some form of consciousness, however, and sought out Eiji Hino because of his lack of desire.
He was heard in Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider OOO & W Featuring Skull: Movie War Core, creating two Pteranodon Yummy from the end of two desires.
Ultimately, he did not appear in the series proper, but rather was reincarnated production-wise through Kiyoto Maki's Greeed transformation.

Behind the scenes
Portrayal
Giru is voiced by Kenji Hamada (浜田 賢二, Hamada Kenji). While the character is referred to by the name "Giru" in the film, Hamada is credited solely as the voice of the "Kyouryu Greeed" (恐竜グリード, Kyōryū Gurīdo) in the film's credits.
Etymology
Giru's name comes from from the Japanese word uragiru (裏切る "to betray"), as he, his Cores, and his Yummy are the opposite of other Greeeds', as they seek to destroy desire rather than embody it.
