Takeshi Hongo was the first protagonist of the long-running Kamen Rider series; where he served as the original Kamen Rider 1.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Losing both of his parents at a young age, Hongo's abnormally high IQ of 600 allowed him to study at the Johnan University as a biochemistry major. His remarkable intellect (and Hongo's great fondness for biking) soon saw him captured by the evil Shocker organization, but while their attempt to transform him into the peak specimen of their Cyborg project was a grand success, they weren't quite done with brainwashing him before their subject managed to escape.
Hongo used his now vastly superhuman powers fight Shocker as Kamen Rider - a motorcycle-mounted hero who trademark costume allows him to dole out Rider Kicks and Rider Punches that nigh-invariably cause Shocker's monster-of-the-week equivalent to blow up in a spectacular manner.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Kamen Rider 1 debuted in in 8chanmania X, where he teamed up with Kamen Rider 2. Their attempt to bring JASTISU to the mania sadly was foiled by Yeti Girl and Ski Free Yeti.
His sole other appearance was in the inter-board tournament of 8chanmania XXVIII, where age-old board culture allowed him to represent /m/ despite of not really being connected to anything mecha-related. The first rider managed to KO Dr. Robotnik, and indeed delivered a Kamen Kick of such force that Robotnik 'exploded in Japanese'. Yet fate is a cruel mistress, which became all too apparent when the Rider was defeated by Nate of all things in the following round.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Hiroshi Fujioka, the actor behind Kamen Rider 1, also happens to be the actor for the venerable Segata Sanshiro.
