Icon-kuugaThis article is about a Rider in Kamen Rider Kuuga.

This article is about the original Kamen Rider Kuuga. For the A.R. World version of Kamen Rider Kuuga, see Yusuke Onodera.

"These creatures caused enough suffering, I don't want to see anyone tears ever again! I want everyone to keep smiling! So please take a look! This is my... transformation (Henshin)! (こんな奴らのために、これ以上誰かの涙は見たくない!皆に笑顔でいて欲しいんです!だから見てて下さい!俺の…変身!, Konna yatsura no tame ni, kore ijō dareka no namida wa mitakunai! Minna ni egao de ite hoshiin desu! Dakara mitete kudasai! Ore no... henshin!)"
―Godai's words to Kaoru Ichijo before transforming into Mighty Form for the first time[src]

"I want to thank you. I'm glad about it. Because... I got to meet Ichijo-San. Now Watch me, this is my transformation. (ありがとうございました。俺、よかったと思ってます。だって…一条さんと会えたから。じゃあ、見ててください。俺の変身。, Arigatō gozaimashita. Ore yokatta to omotte masu. Datte... Ichijō-san to aetakara. Jaa, mitete kudasai. Ore no henshin.)"
―Godai to Ichijo before transforming into Ultimate Form for the first time[src]

"It'll be okay..."
―Godai's words of encouragement[src]

Yusuke Godai (五代 雄介, Godai Yūsuke) is the main protagonist of Kamen Rider Kuuga. He is a young man who transforms into Kamen Rider Kuuga (仮面ライダークウガ, Kamen Raidā Kūga).

History[]

Yusuke Godai was born in Hokkaido, Japan on March 18, 1975[1] with a blood-type of O. In sixth grade, His father passed away during a job in Afghanistan. When he was 18, his mother got incredibly ill and passed away, leaving Godai and his sister in the care of his father's friend Tamasaburo Kazari.[2]

Following his return from Indonesia, Godai's life changed when he reunited with Sakurako Sawatari. While Sakurako was intrepreting the heiroglyphs from the archaelogical findings that Professor Natsume's had sent her of an ancient tribe, she translates to Godai that unsealing the tomb will bring death. Passing it off as nothing more than a joke, she goes to call the team to deliver the news and finds that their screams are the only sound getting through the phone. Godai spontaneously decides to travel to the excavation site and is suddenly hit with a vision of the past Kuuga as he looks at the Gurongi Tribe tomb. He finds the police investigating the area and attempts to sneak past detective Kaoru Ichijo in order to get a closer look. Upon being denied entry, he lingers around the wreckage site and watches the rescue team bring out a strange belt, similar to the visions he's been seeing. He later meets with Ichijo and Sakurako at the police station to watch a recovered tape of the archeologists being slaughtered by a mysterious monster, later referred to as "Unidentified Lifeform 0", before being given the Arcle to figure out its meaning to Unidentified Lifeform 0.

However, as they leave, the two encounter the Gurongi Xu·Gmun·Ba attacking the station. As the police around Godai continue to be killed, he gathers his courage and puts on the Arcle to fight him, just as the visions had shown him prior. This results with the belt fusing onto him as he assumes Kuuga's Growing Form and is able to save Ichijo from the Gurongi. The detective later recognized Godai from his unique thumbs-up call sign. After Godai wakes up 11 hours later, Sakurako suggests they return to Tokyo before being interrupted by Ichijo who tells Godai not to meddle in police affairs and to go get checked up by Shuichi Tsubaki in Tokyo. Later that night, Godai goes against Ichijo's wishes to help fight Xu·Goma·Gu, only to be beaten by the stronger monster and later scolded by Ichijo.

But after seeing the daughter of the late Professor Natsume cry over her father's death, Godai's resolve to fight for the sake of keeping people from suffering led him to assume Mighty Form, taking the name of "Kuuga" as he saves Ichijo from Goma and destroys Gmun. Starting with inspector Kaoru Ichijo, Godai eventually gains the trust of the police department by receiving the TryChaser 2000 from Ichijo. While brought to Doctor Shuichi Tsubaki for a confidential check-up, Godai learns that the Arcle's fusion onto him is more complex as it had spread vein-like connections into his muscular and nervous systems.

During his first battle with Zu-Badzū-Ba, Kuuga assumes Dragon Form and eventually masters it with Sakurako's aid to kill Badzū. Then while fighting Me·Vagis·Ba, Kuuga assumes Pegasus Form but was overwhelmed by his enhanced senses as Vagis escapes, vowing revenge on Kuuga. Unable to change, Godai decides to help Ichijo by finding Mika Natsume, who is on the verge of being suicidal when her father's murderer not yet caught. After talking Mika into letting things resolve themselves over time, Vagis attacks and Godai is able to effectively use Pegasus Form's power to kill the Gurongi sniper.

While dealing with Me·Geega·Gi, and Minori's apprehensive feelings for being Kuuga, Godai is able to become Titan Form to defeat Geega after convincing Minori that it all be right. Godai later meets Junichi Chono, a young man who lost his faith in humanity and thought to be able to relate more the Unidentified Lifeforms. However, his encounter with Me·Byran·Gi said otherwise when Kuuga saves the boy before killing the Gurongi. During the fight however, Godai felt the reawakening of the Gouram as it was excavated and whirled to life to make its way towards him, providing its power for him to counter Me·Garido·Gi.

Later, when poisoned by Me·Ginoga·De, Godai manages to survive the near death experience due to the Amadam countering the poison when induced with shock therapy, allowing him to arrive to the police's aid to destroy Ginoga and later his clone. But since then, Godai begins to feel a numbing pain during his next few battles as Kuuga against stronger Gurongi. He learns that it may be tied to a greater power that maybe needed as he believes that stronger Gurongi will eventually appear. After training to bring out the "golden power" with Enokida's help, Godai's battle against the promoted Go-Garima-Ba leads to an upgraded version of Kuuga's Titan Form, Rising Titan. The next two fights allow Godai to become Rising Pegasus and Rising Dragon while learning that the Arcle had fused further into his body.

A dark foreshadowing

Kuuga's Ultimate Form in his subconscious

After healing from being wounded by Go·Gamego·Re, Godai meets Chono as he took up being an artist since their last encounter before he finds the Gurongi and kills him once achieving Rising Mighty, accidentally causing mass devastation. Because of the incident, the BeatChaser 2000 would not to be given to Kuuga as the Go-Badā-Ba finally begins to play, saving Kuuga as his final victim. While Ichijo convinces his fellow officers, Godai is aided by Sugita in tracking down Badā until Ichijo arrives with the Beat Chaser which allows Kuuga to destroy Badā. However, the incident with the sadistic Go·Jalaji·Da, influences Godai's behavior for the worse, causing him to subconsciously assume Kuuga's Ultimate Form while killing the Gurongi in a brutal rage.

Later, Godai goes to Enokida when she wanted to investigate the reason on how he can turn everyday objects into weapons like the Go Gurongi before going after Go·Zazalu·Ba when she went up against an evolving Goma, worried that two Gurongi fighting each other was a very bad omen. This is made worse when Godai learns the "Kuuga" character is not of Rinto origin, but is actually an incomplete Gurongi character and may be tied to Number 0, later revealed as the Gurongi lord N·Daguva·Zeba when he arrived to slaughter Goma before making his way to Tokyo for end-game. Godai's fears of their relation were confirmed as Sakurako fully translated the Rinto text and the Gurongi characters on it, revealing his mental wellbeing during the incident with Jalaji while understanding that he'll be alright as long as he doesn't fight out of hate.

After learning from Enokida that the Gurongi may also share Kuuga's ability to change form, Godai leaves when Go-Jāza-Gi makes her move. During a flawed attempt to get her, Kuuga senses Daguva and got wounded while his guard was down before he finally kills Jāza in the next confrontation. After a post-discussion of the recent Gurongi/Kuuga connections after the death of Go·Babel·Da, Godai makes his way to the 12 Arikawa Group Flute Competition, having brush in with Daguva before arriving to the Arikawa Group building after a hostage situation is resolved with Mika traumatized by the incident. As he escorts Mika to her train for home, Godai tells her not to run away even if things get scary.

During the battle with the last of the Go Gurongi, Go·Gadol·Ba, Kuuga is overwhelmed by the Gurongi's ability to assume forms similar to his own. Severely wounded as a result, Godai is brought to the hospital where after a question of ethics, Tsubaki agrees to induce an electro-therapy charge after his heart gave out. By the time he leaves the hospital, Godai arrives to the stadium where Gadol is fighting La·Doldo·Gu. However in the ensuing rematch, Kuuga is revealed to have attained the dark-armored Kuuga Amazing Mighty Form, allowing him to defeat Gadol in a rematch. With his brethren all dead, Daguva becomes the sole victor for the Gurongi game, causing him to enact the "Ultimate Darkness". Easily overpowering Kuuga's Amazing Mighty and cracking the Amadam, Daguva singlehandedly murders 30 thousand people, doing so in an instant. Believing Yusuke to now be capable of attaining Ultimate Form, Daguva spares him, awaiting for a rematch.

Knowing that he has no choice but to assume his final form, Godai visits his friends one-by-one in preparation, Sakurako alone realizing his intentions. Immediately afterwards, Daguva makes his move, telling Godai to meet him at Mount Kuro. Now ready, Godai requests Ichijo to destroy his damaged Amadam should he lose control, before unleashing his full power.

Successfully transforming into Kuuga Ultimate Form (Red Eyes), Godai battles Daguva in a blizzard storm, both proving equal in strength. Amidst their fight, Kuuga and Daguva's Amadums become severely damaged, canceling their transformations. Neither side yielding, Godai and Daguva resume their fight in human forms, coughing up blood from each punch thrown. Yusuke sheds tears at his given situation, while Daguva laughs in utter madness, enjoying himself immensely.

Narrowly defeating Daguva, Godai collapses in exhaustion, to Ichijo's concern and shock. Three months after the final battle, Godai has begun a new adventure to travel the world, starting at a Cuban beach where he helps some kids before walking off.

Novel: Kamen Rider Kuuga[]

13 years after Daguva's defeat, a new set of Gurongi emerged from an archaeological site, each as vicious as their predecessors. Since Godai remained missing, Mika Natsume fought them with a "prototype" Arcle, becoming Kuuga Growing Form. Since this Arcle lacked an Amadum though, Mika eventually began to lose control over herself, turning into Kuuga Ultimate Form (Black Eyes).

Turning the Tokyo Tower into a superweapon, Mika attempted to get revenge on Go-Raio-Da. Just when it seemed that all hope was lost, Godai appeared with Gouram, becoming Kuuga Mighty Form. Deciding to solve the situation in a non-violent manner, Godai withstood Mika's attacks and calmly embraced her, allowing Mika to revert back into human form.

Facing Raio, Godai overwhelmed him with his four basic forms. However, once Raio reverted into human form, Godai hesitated to deal the finishing blow. Luckily, Ichijo appeared to assist him, causing Raio to die. Once saving Ichijo from falling to his death, Godai decided to resume his journey, giving Ichijo a thumbs-up in assurance.

Other Events[]

As a main Heisei Rider, Kuuga frequently reappears in crossovers in his suit only, usually with no speaking lines (or voiced by a new actor). Generally, he is assumed (and sometimes confirmed) to be Yusuke Godai unless otherwise stated, though the canonicity of this is dubious and bears no relevance to his characterization.

Kamen Rider Agito[]

"It looked a lot like Unidentified Lifeform #4, the one who fought against the other Unidentified Lifeforms."
―Makoto Hikawa referencing Kuuga in Blue Storm.[src]

Godai is mentioned a few times in Kamen Rider Agito. It is said that Kamen Rider G3's design was based on Kuuga, originally created to combat the Unidentified Lifeforms. This was due to that Agito was originally going to be a Kuuga sequel, however these plans were dropped early on by Toei. The remnants are still to be found in the early episodes of Agito.

Kamen Rider Decade[]

  • In the version of Kamen Rider Decade Episode 31 shown in reruns, an unidentified Ultimate Kuuga, with black eyes, appears as one of Wataru Kurenai's companions, who antagonize Decade after he failed in his mission of saving the worlds. When more Riders appear and the Rider War starts, Kuuga seemingly reverts to Mighty Form and boards the TryChaser 2000, although he is knocked out during the conflict. In the original version of the episode, the Ultimate Kuuga in the final battle was a brainwashed Yusuke Onodera, but all references to his identity are removed in the rerun version, which just makes him appear as another member of Wataru's group. Tv-Asahi site also lists this Kuuga as a separate character.

OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders[]

Kuuga in OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders

Kamen Rider Kuuga, in Mighty Form, appears in OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders. He reappears alongside the other Heisei era Riders, fighting against Gurongi that allied themselves with Shocker and other Kamen Rider villains from the 40 years of the franchise. Kuuga defeats N·Gamio·Zeda who had become one of Shocker's executives and stops the Gurongi's offensive. Afterward, he joins up with every other Rider for a final battle against the Great Leader of Shocker.

When all the Riders board their vehicles for a combined attack against the Great Leader, Kuuga goes with the Rising BeatGouram.

Although his human form is not shown in the movie itself, has no lines, and is not listed in the credits, Kuuga is confirmed to be Yusuke Godai by the movie's official website. [3]

Kuuga fights against the Mole Imagin,Tortoise Undead and Bakeneko. Afterwards, Kuuga uses his Mighty Kick to finish off both the Hound Zodiarts and Rat Fangire at once. When the battleground changes to the air, Kuuga and Agito are left behind on the ground, but Decade uses his Final formride ability to change them into Kuuga Gouram and Agito Tornador. Kuuga is surprised by Decade's ability, while Agito tells him to ask before doing that the next time. Flying through the air, Kuuga destroys many Hydragoons.

After the battle, the boy wakes up next to the chest with the Rider Rings, and Kuuga gives him a thumbs up, telling him that everything will be fine. Afterwards, he leaves that world alongside most other Riders, and the Rider Rings disappear. [Neverending Story]

Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3Icon-crosswiki[]

15rider-245

Due to the timeline alteration caused by Shocker, Godai became one of the brainwashed Riders in that timeline, donning the name of Shocker Rider Kuuga.

Following the Rider Grand Prix in which Drive emerged victorious over Kamen Rider 3, who was promptly integrated into the Great Leader of Shocker's Rider Robo form, Kuuga was among the Riders who appeared to attack Zeronos Zero Form and Denebick Buster only to be fought off by the turncoat BOARD Riders: Chalice, Leangle, Blade and Garren. Ultimately, the Double Riders 1 and 2 made their appearance having survived their apparent demise from within the Rider Robo, and broke Shocker's brainwashing on the fallen Riders, enabling all Riders to unite in a final battle against Shocker.

Unfortunately, Kuuga was among the Riders whose existence was erased by the Rider Robo. This fate, however, was rendered moot when the Rider Robo was finally destroyed by Shurikenjin TridoronIcon-crosswiki, restoring Kuuga's place in history.

Other appearances[]

Kamen Rider Decade: The World of Tsukasa Kadoya ~The Garden Inside the Lens~[]

Kuuga’s world is set somewhere early in the TV show, where Kaoru Ichijo is the only person who considers Kuuga to be an ally of humanity, while the rest of the police forces consider Kuuga as a threat. Despite having the name Yusuke Godai, his personality is actually closer to Onodera’s, if anything. Godai is an airhead for the most part, to the point of having difficulty remembering the name Decade and usually goes with “Kamen Rider Dickens.” In this world, Tsukasa is dressed as a painter in Kuuga’s world. Despite being Kuuga’s world, Tsukasa doesn’t interact much with Godai.

Instead he meets a mysterious unnamed girl, with her sentences spoken in broken grammar. This girl approaches different men saying “Do you want me?” The girl is referred as Yuri after Tsukasa sees her holding a lily flower, yuri in Japanese. She asks the question to Tsukasa, but Natsumi doesn’t like it and uses her Laughing Pressure Point technique. Yuri takes a liking to Tsukasa and connects with him. Tsukasa says they are the same type of people, and relate to each other. But he reveals that he never really paid attention to her and never cared about her. From the start, Natsumi oddly suspects that Yuri is a Gurongi. This is never truly touched upon until the where Yuri reveals the truth and challenge the Riders into a fight. Her Gurongi group is not mentioned, but she’s described as a Moth, meaning she's of the Ba class of Gurongi. She causes people to explode by sticking moth scales from her wings on people. Decade and Kuuga defeat her together. Godai only uses Mighty and Dragon, but for some reason he’s using a sword while in Mighty form, which has traditionally been a form more focused on hand-to-hand combat. Decade's Final Form Ride for this Kuuga is also different: while it retains the ability to transform Kuuga into the Kuuga Gouram, the Gouram is described as a rhinoceros beetle, despite it traditionally being a stag beetle, which is also the same insect Kuuga is based on. Godai gives Tsukasa a thumbs up as they leave.

Personality[]

Godai is a happy-go-lucky and honest person that fights to protect everyone's smile. Godai constantly seeks to better himself, having gained 2000 skills because of it. While serious about keeping his vows, Godai will break some if he considers it absolutely necessary. Even in difficult situations, Godai strives to retain his smile, being optimistic in most cases. So long as he can help someone, Godai will never be hesitant to do anything, particularly after becoming Kuuga.

However, though gentle, Godai is capable of anger and hatred. Gradually growing disgusted with the Gurongi and their immense cruelty, Godai found himself becoming more violent with each battle, brutally murdering Jalaji in a fit of rage. Receiving a mental vision of Ultimate Form in response to this; Godai became shocked, expressing horror at what he could potentially turn into.

Despite his growing hatred toward the Gurongi, Godai never reveals this feeling to his friends, not wishing to worry them. Believing that a calm heart is needed to retain his sense of self, Godai vowed to fight without hatred, subconsciously holding himself back as Kuuga. In his battle against Daguva though, Godai realizes the need to use Ultimate Form to win, it being the only power strong enough to do so. Though concerned, Godai's time with his friends gave him the needed determination, thus successfully transforming into Kuuga Ultimate Form (Red Eyes).

Once his battle against Daguva ended, Godai resumed his adventure around the world, using it as a means to heal his emotions. Amidst his journey, Godai encountered some children from a foreign land, joyfully entertaining them.

Fighting Skills[]

From the beginning of the series, Godai proved himself an expert fighter, though with little actual experience. Despite his initial lack of knowledge concerning Kuuga's powers, Godai swiftly adapted from each battle, learning from his defeats. A capable weapon user, Godai readily handled Kuuga's weaponry without issue, including his Rider Machines. By the final battle against Daguva, Godai has completely mastered his powers as Kuuga, matching his foe with each attack until narrowly winning in human form.

Kamen Rider Kuuga[]

"Chō henshin! (超変身! lit. "Super transformation!")"
―Godai's call when changing between forms[src]

Transforming with the power of the Arcle, Kuuga was designed to access a variety of forms for different situations. Among them are the incomplete Growing Form, the balanced Mighty Form, the agile Dragon Form, the precise Pegasus Form, and the powerful Titan Form.

Through modern technology, Kuuga later learnt to draw more power from the Arcle, gaining upgrades in the form of Rising Form versions, and the Amazing Mighty Form.

Like certain Gurongi, Kuuga can manipulate atoms themselves, done via his Morphing Power. In his four basic form and their "upgrades", Kuuga can temporarily transmogrify items of a certain shape into weapons, similar to the Go Group.

If Kuuga were to release the Arcle's full powers, he will transform into his final form, Ultimate Form. In this state, Kuuga is nigh-unstoppable, rivaling N-Daguva-Zeba himself. However, since Ultimate Form heavily stimulates its user's anger and malice, one requires compassion to retain control.

Growing Form (グローイングフォーム, Gurōingu Fōmu) is Kuuga's white, weakest and incomplete form. Kuuga is forced into this form when he is too inexperienced to access stronger forms or is gravely injured. In the latter case, he will be unable to transform again for 2 hours.

Although his power is weak in this form, Kuuga still can use a finisher called "Growing Kick" (グローイングキック, Gurōingu Kikku), though it only has one-third to half the strength of the Mighty Kick.

As none of Kuuga's forms are called in the show by their actual names, Growing Form is referred to as White Kuuga (白のクウガ, Shiro no Kūga). Initially, the police and media would call this form the "Unidentified Lifeform #2" (未確認生命体第2号, Mikakuninseimeitai Dainigō), as Kuuga in Growing Form was the second "monstrosity" to appear. They would also initially consider #2 and #4 as separate beings, until Kaoru Ichijo learned more about Kuuga's form changing abilities and revealed that the Unidentified Lifeform #2 is actually a white-armored #4 (白い4号 Shiroi Yongō). After that, the "#2" label was ultimately dropped as the "#4" label had become the better known one.

Mighty Form (マイティフォーム, Maiti Fōmu) is Kuuga's red main form. It is the most balanced out of all of his standard forms, and is thus his most used form. Unlike his other forms, it has no personal weapon, instead opting for hand-to-hand combat. In this form, Kuuga uses "Mighty Kick" (マイティキック, Maiti Kikku), a long running kick which leaves his mark on his target, causing them to explode. However, if the target's resistance is strong enough, the Kuuga mark will fade away, canceling its explosion.

As none of Kuuga's forms are called in the show by their actual names, Mighty Form is referred to as Red Kuuga (赤のクウガ, Aka no Kūga). It was labeled "Unidentified Lifeform #4" (未確認生命体第4号, Mikakuninseimeitai Daiyongō) by the police before Kaoru Ichijo learned more about Kuuga's form changing abilities. Thus, the "#4" label stuck to Kuuga regardless of the form he would change into.

Dragon Form (ドラゴンフォーム, Doragon Fōmu) Kuuga's agile blue form. While it is physically weaker than any of his other forms, it is much faster and can leap incredible heights, allowing Kuuga to scale skyscrapers with ease. To make up for its weakness, Dragon Form can transform any pole-shaped object into the Dragon Rod (ドラゴンロッド, Doragon Roddo) to use as a staff weapon. Kuuga's finishing move in this form is Splash Dragon (スプラッシュドラゴン, Supurasshu Doragon), an aerial thrust attack to the body. This can be in the form of a simple thrust or tossing the Dragon Rod at the target.

As none of Kuuga's forms are called in the show by their actual names, Dragon Form is referred to as Blue Kuuga (青のクウガ, Ao no Kūga).

Pegasus Form (ペガサスフォーム, Pegasasu Fōmu) is Kuuga's green crossbowman form with massively boosted senses, enabling him to see, hit and hear his opponents with extreme precision. However, this increased sensory stimulation overwhelms Kuuga over time, preventing him from using this form for more than 50 seconds without being forced into Growing Form and made unable to transform again for 2 hours. Pegasus Form can transform any gun-like object into the Pegasus Bowgun (ペガサスボウガン, Pegasasu Bōgan), a powerful crossbow. With the Pegasus Bowgun, Kuuga fires "Blast Pegasus" (ブラストペガサス, Burasuto Pegasasu), an arrow shot from the crossbow after pulling the hammer back to the fullest length.

As none of Kuuga's forms are called in the show by their actual names, Pegasus Form is referred to as Green Kuuga (緑のクウガ, Midori no Kūga).

Titan Form (タイタンフォーム, Taitan Fōmu) is Kuuga's herculean purple form, it sacrifices speed for increased durability and strength. Titan Form's impenetrable defenses allow Kuuga to endure enemy attacks long enough to approach the opponents. He is armed with the Titan Sword (タイタンソード, Taitan Sōdo), which can be transformed from pole-like objects like the handle of Kuuga's bike or an enemy's weapon. Titan Form's finishing move is "Calamity Titan" (カラミティタイタン, Karamiti Taitan), a powerful sword thrust wherein Kuuga twists the blade as it is impaled.

As none of Kuuga's forms are called in the show by their actual names, Titan Form is referred to as Purple Kuuga (紫のクウガ, Murasaki no Kūga).

By allowing himself to be the conduit for electricity to power the Amadam, Godai obtained upgraded versions of his standard forms. Known as Kuuga's Golden Power for its additional gold trimmings and extensions and the mark of power (chikara () written in ancient Rinto on the back of Kuuga's hands.

Initially, Godai could only access Rising Forms for 30 seconds before reverting back to the respective base forms or even Growing Form if he has sustained too much damage. This handicap was removed after Godai's second electrotherapy.

Like Kuuga's other forms, the Rising forms are never called by their actual names, but are referred to as the Golden Power (金の力 Kin no Chikara).

In need of greater power, Kuuga accessed Amazing Mighty (アメージングマイティ, Amējingu Maiti), his super form and an upgrade of Rising Mighty. This form is stronger than any of the forms that came before it, and, being another upgrade of Mighty Form, is well-balanced. This form's black and gold color scheme foreshadows Kuuga's next and final form, Ultimate Form.

Amazing Mighty equips Kuuga with a Mighty Anklet on each leg, allowing him to execute Amazing Mighty Kick (アメージングマイティキック, Amējingu Maiti Kikku), an incredibly powerful drop kick version of Rising Mighty Kick with both feet covered in electricity, causing the target exploded in a large, flaming pillar that nearly pierced the atmosphere.

Amazing Mighty is called the Black Golden Kuuga (黒の金のクウガ, Kuro no Kin no Kūga) in the show due to the armor's transition from red to black.

Ultimate Form (アルティメットフォーム, Arutimetto Fōmu) is Kuuga's final form, with all other forms being but a small fragment of its power. In this form, Kuuga is also referred to as the Supreme Warrior (最高戦士, Saikō Senshi), or alternatively the Fierce Warrior (凄まじき戦士, Susamajiki Senshi). This form puts Kuuga at risk of losing control and becoming a monster bent on destruction, and can only be controlled by a person of pure heart. When Kuuga loses control, his eyes change color from red to black. Thus, this state is called Ultimate Form (Dark Eye) (アルティメットフォーム(ダークアイ), Arutimetto Fōmu (Dāku Ai))[17].

Being the antithesis of N·Daguva·Zeba, Kuuga in Ultimate Form has the same powers as him, both physical and mystical. Notably, through his morphing power, Kuuga can control atoms without any effort, having created a barrage of fire to attack Daguva. If needed, this form is also capable of creating weapons from thin air, requiring no solid objects beforehand.

Kuuga Ultimate Form's primary finisher is Ultimate Kick (アルティメットキック, Arutimetto Kikku). In Kamen Rider Decade and Zi-O, it was shown to be a kick coated with golden flames.

In Kamen Rider Decade, Ultimate Form is also shown to be capable of Ultimate Punch (アルティメットパンチ, Arutimetto Panchi), a punch coated with hot flames.

Presumably, it has all of the same abilities as Ultimate Form.

In this form, Kuuga's finisher is Rising Ultimate Kick (ライジングアルティメットキック, Raijingu Arutimetto Kikku). It also has a flaming attack called Rising Ultimate Punch (ライジングアルティメットキック, Raijingu Arutimetto Panchi).

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

Yusuke Godai was portrayed by Joe Odagiri (オダギリ ジョー, Odagiri Jō). In Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero TaisenIcon-crosswiki, Kuuga was voiced by Naoki Imamura (今村 直樹, Imamura Naoki). In the newly released Kamen Rider Battride War, he was voiced by Nobunaga Shimazaki, who also voices his A.R. counterpart.

As Kamen Rider Kuuga, his suit actor was Kenji Tominaga (富永 研司, Tominaga Kenji), his motorcycle action suit actor was Takumi Narita (成田 匠, Narita Takumi). Kenji Tominaga returned to do suit work for the A.R. World Kuuga in episodes 25 and 26 of Kamen Rider Decade and in Kamen Rider Decade: All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker. He once again served as suit actor for Kamen Rider Kuuga in Super Hero Taisen.

Etymology[]

"Kuuga" in Japanese comes from the readings of "clear-self" (空我, Kūga). This possibly relates to how the user of the Arcle must have a "drive" to fully use the power of the belt. "Godai" is a homophone of "ancient" (古代, Kodai) and is translates to "five generations" and is also one of the names for the five elements in Japanese philosophy. These relates to Kuuga's identity was an Ancient Rinto Warrior and Kuuga's forms have relations to the five elements. The other basis of Kuuga's name is Japanese word for stag beetle - "kuwagatamushi" (鍬形虫), which is Kuuga's motif.

Rider No.[]

15th Kamen Rider newspaper (Kuuga)

A 1999 newspaper introducing the "15th" Rider.

As the leading Rider protagonist of Kamen Rider Kuuga, Yusuke Godai (Kamen Rider Kuuga) is labeled Kamen Rider #16 (仮面ライダー16号, Kamen Raidā Jūrokugō) and Heisei Rider #1 (平成ライダー1号, Heisei Raidā Ichigō).[Quiz! Decade Countdown!!] Before this definition in the Decade net movie, Kuuga was originally labeled The 15th Kamen Rider (第15代目の仮面ライダー, Dai Juugo Daime no Kamen Raidā), as Kamen Rider Black RX was initially seen as a form change for Kamen Rider Black rather than as a separate Rider.

In Popular Culture[]

In the Nyaruko-san Haiyore! Nyaruko-san OVA "How to Defeat a Kind Enemy", Nyarko paraphrases Godai's famous speech from episode 2 of Kuuga: "For the sake of protecting everyone's smiles, I will become a magical girl! So please watch!" She then performs Godai's transformation pose to change into her magical girl identity. Additionally, in episodes 1 and 6 of the 2012 anime, Nyarko performs the Mighty Kick against her opponents, complete with Godai's trademark shout "Oriyaa!".

Notes[]

  • Other actors who previously auditioned for the role of Godai include Noboru KanekoIcon-crosswiki and Masaya MatsukazeIcon-crosswiki.
  • Not only is Godai the first Rider of the Heisei Era, but he is also the first Rider to have a stag beetle motif, specifically the species Dorcus Titanus, a large black stag beetle that is popular in the Insect Fight community
  • Yusuke Godai is the only Heisei Primary Rider to have no secondary nor extra Riders to aid his battle, though this may have been due to the fact that Shotaro Ishinomori had worked on Kuuga before his death, and the staff of the series left him to fight the Gurongi alone Rider-wise as a tribute to the creator.
    • Notably, among all the Primary Riders, Godai is also the only one to never appear in a film without being in a transformed state.
Kuuga Ultimate Concept Art

Early concepts designs of Ultimate Form

  • Kuuga's Ultimate Form is the Heisei Rider final form with the shortest number of appearances in their respective series to date, with its only appearances only as a silhouette in some episodes and its proper debut in one episode before the finale. It also doubles as the latest Final Form to debut in the franchise.
  • Kuuga Ultimate Form is the only Final Form that was never summoned and/or used by Kamen Rider Decade Complete Form in the series, not counting when he summoned all Riders in their respective final forms in Kamen Rider Decade: Protect! The World of Televikun and the game, Kamen Rider: Battride War.
  • Ultimate Form's weapons were referred to in the official data, but never seen in the series proper. However, the weapons were included with the Souchaku Henshin action figure, where they were depicted as identical to the Rising weapons, with the blue/green/purple parts recolored to black.
    • There were early designs that depicted Ultimate Form with its own unique weapon: an arm-mounted unit with similar design cues to the Arcle.
