How Kamen Rider W Changed the Heisei Era of Tokusatsu


Kamen Rider W: The Two-in-One Hero of the Windy City




Kamen Rider W is a Japanese tokusatsu drama that aired from 2009 to 2010 as part of the Kamen Rider Series. It is the eleventh series in the Heisei era and the twenty-fourth overall. It is notable for being the first series to feature a two-in-one hero, who is composed of two different people who can fuse together using a special device. The series is set in Futo, an ecologically-minded city powered by windmills, where a mysterious family sells devices called Gaia Memories to criminals who use them to become monsters called Dopants. The series follows the adventures of Shotaro Hidari, a hard-boiled detective, and Philip, a mysterious boy with a vast knowledge, who work together as Kamen Rider Double to solve cases and stop the Dopants. The series has a noir style, a detective theme, and a catchy slogan: "This clinches it!"


The Story of Kamen Rider W




The story begins with Shotaro Hidari, a young detective who works at the Narumi Detective Agency, along with his boss Sokichi Narumi and his daughter Akiko Narumi. Shotaro has a partner named Philip, who lives in a secret room in the agency. Philip has no memories of his past, but he can access a library of information called the Gaia Library using his mind. Together, they use a device called the Double Driver and two Gaia Memories each to transform into Kamen Rider Double, a hero who can change his abilities depending on which memories he uses. They take on cases involving Dopants, people who use Gaia Memories to gain superpowers at the cost of their sanity. They also face off against the Sonozaki Family, a powerful organization that produces and distributes Gaia Memories for their own agenda. Along the way, they discover more about Philip's origin, Shotaro's past, and the true nature of Gaia Memories.
