"Master, what's your current body fat ratio?"
―to Akira Kido in their low body fat ratio contest.[src]

Mamoru Shima (嶋 護, Shima Mamoru) was the leader of Wonderful Blue Sky Organization/Aozora Organization and the boss of Nago, Megumi, and Kengo. He also befriended Akira Kido.

History[]

He is a mysterious millionaire who is the president of the Shima Foundation, a front for the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization (素晴らしき青空の会 Subarashiki Aozora no Kai) that funds the Fangire Hunters, spending his spare time at a gym. He also gathers information on any new members of the Fangire Race that the Organization comes across, as well as seeing Kiva as a possible greater threat due to the original's rampage in 1986, believing from his experience with his foster-son Taiga that Fangires and humans cannot co-exist. He let Kengo be part of the organization, training him to be a more suited successor to Ixa System, but fires him after Wataru runs away. It was soon after that Shima suffers an ironic fate when mortally wounded by the Sungazer Fangire and made into a Fangire by Taiga to save his life, forced to turn toward Wataru to be his bodyguard. But after revealing to Wataru the relationship between him and Taiga, Shima attempts to kill Taiga only to be defeated by Saga and taken away to heal his wounds. Shima eventually returns, restored back to his human state free of the Fangire condition, to aid his friends in the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization's final battle against the Fangires. Shima also talks about Wataru's father, Otoya, who he deemed "unique" and how Maya entrusted Taiga to him in order to prevent any retribution in the future. At the end of the series he attends Nago's wedding, retrieving the presents along with Kengo.

Personality[]

Shima is the leader of the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization (meaning that he is the boss of Keisuke Nago, Megumi Aso, and Kengo Eritate) and adoptive father of Taiga Nobori. Being the leader of an organization, Shima is mostly shown as having a calm demeanor, typically displaying wisdom and insight towards his employees. Having disciplined himself to fight against any menace to humanity, Shima often trains at the gym, determined to be at his physical peak.

Despite his usual stern attitude, Shima is also capable of casual luxuries, being a connoisseur of cappuccino. His friendship with Akira Kido is noteworthy as well, the two often competing with who has the least body fat ratio.

Like most members of the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization, Shima has a strong distrust towards Fangires, bordering onto intense hatred. Shima states this to have stemmed from his past with Taiga, in which he was attacked by his adoptive son from a fit of rage. Embittered by this experience, Shima deemed all Fangires to be evil, believing that humanity cannot co-exist with them. However, as Taiga himself pointed out, Shima's discrimination was already long present before this incident, with Shima's cold and outright xenophobic attitude being what caused Taiga to angrily lash out in the first place.

Having failed to notice this hypocrisy, Shima remained determined to destroy any Fangires, including half-bloods like Wataru Kurenai as targets. Partly from Nago and the others' actions though, Shima slowly began recognizing Wataru as an ally, to the point of accepting him as a protector of humanity.

When given the powers of the Sungazer Fangire by Taiga, Shima slowly began losing his mind, much to his horror. As such, he decided to end his life before any irreversible harm could be done, while trying to defeat Taiga as well. When Taiga revealed his true colors and saved Shima though, the latter finally recognized his mistakes, admitting to Wataru that he failed to properly care for his adoptive son. This acknowledgement proved crucial in ending Taiga and Wataru's rivalry, as well as giving Taiga the closure he desperately needed.

The first version of Proto Ixa (プロトイクサ, Puroto Ikusa) that was produced, before the Ixa Knuckle Ver.1 and Save Mode were created. It was used by Mamoru Shima against Rook becoming the first person to use the Ixa system. The burden on the wearer's body is greater than that of the normal Ixa, and it is still no match for Rook's strength.

The design is very similar to the Save Mode, but the shape of the Ixa Belt is different and the chest features a large cross. This version of Ixa wields the Ixa Hammer (イクサハンマー, Ikusa Hanmā), an electromagnetic hammer equipped with a large pile driver that uses an electrically charged pile.

This form is exclusive to S.I.C. Hero Saga Kamen Rider Kiva Edition: King of Vampire.

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

  • Shima was portrayed by Kazuhiko Kanayama in both the present and past settings, with Kanayama wearing a wig when appearing as his younger self.

Notes[]

  • After being merged with the Sungazer Fangire, Shima experienced a drastic increase in appetite, devouring entire full-course meals without satiating his hunger. Since normal Fangire do not require sustenance in the same manner as humans, this was very likely due to his unique state.
