![]() The story of the manga strays significantly from the original show, including having a crossover with Inoue's own rider season, Kamen Rider Agito. The manga is set to receive an English release in 2022. In 2015, Kuuga received a manga adaptation, written by Toshiki Inoue and illustrated Hitotsu Yokoshima. ![]() He has to fight the Grongi, the race that have been unleashed, as they are killing people to establish who the strongest is among them and the rightful inheritor of the ancient evil. Yusuke Godai happens to receive a belt that was recovered from the ruins of the tomb, which is absorbed into his body and he becomes Kamen Rider Kuuga. In the year 2000, a tomb is disturbed and an ancient evil unleashed. The series sparked the revival of the Kamen Rider series as the first Heisei series. The original airing consisted of a total of 49 episodes and was broadcast from Januto January 21, 2001. ![]() A case could also be made in that Gaim's ties to the Cross of Fire aren't as strong compared to the other Riders, as the Driver and Lockseeds he uses are Helheim's power filtered down for human use, rather than amplified like in other cases.Kamen Rider Kuuga is a tokusatsu superhero television series.Theoretically, Amadum failed to absorb Kamen Rider Gaim's powers supposedly because Helheim's Inves weren't sealed in that world, due to that world's residents not transforming into any Inves yet.His name is similar to Amadam, the power source of the original Heisei Rider, Kuuga.In his monstrous form, he is portrayed by an unidentified suit actor.Īmadum was designed by Hiroshi Maruyama ( 丸山 浩, Maruyama Hiroshi). Thunder ( サンダー, Sandā): Allows Amadum to fire a bolt of lighting from his hand capable of holding off Kamen Riders, equivalent to the Thunder Wizard Ring.Īmadum as Gaoh Behind the scenes Portrayal Īmadum is portrayed by Tomorowo Taguchi ( 田口 トモロヲ, Taguchi Tomorowo), who previously portrayed Scissors Jaguar in Kamen Rider: The Next.Teleport ( テレポート, Terepōto): Allows Amadum to transport himself instantaneously to anywhere in his world, equivalent to the Teleport Wizard Ring. ![]() Both hands also emit powerful shockwave blasts and light energy beams, and in human form he can perform magic spells equivalent to Wizard's Rings by speaking the name, even before stealing his powers. He was also durable enough to withstand a Double Rider Kick from Kuuga and Agito in their strongest forms. A wizard himself, Amadum initially appears human before transforming into a monstrous form similar to a Phantom, it is in this form he demonstrates the ability to steal all of the 14 Heisei Riders' Ultimate Power through the ring-like armor around his body and use it against them, specifically Wizard, who was bombarded with a barrage of his predecessors' combined powers. Powers and abilities Specifications Īmadum has the ability to unleash any previous deceased character and then acquire their characteristics, such as Shiro, Gara, Mimihiko, Super Douji and Gaoh. After Amadum's demise, the Rider Rings vanish as the Riders return back to their world ending Amadum's tyranny for good.Īmadum is a rather eccentric person who likes to cosplay as villains from previous Kamen Rider series and speaks in a dramatic tone. Thanks to Gaim, the Riders regain their powers as they change into their final forms to defeat Amadum with their respective Rider Kicks with Wizard and Gaim dealing the final blow with a double Rider Slash. He thought Gaim was born from the same source of evil, although he plans to defeat and absorb Gaim's power, but Gaim overpowered Amadum and finally released the Rider powers. But his plans failed when Haruto reopens a portal for Kamen Rider Gaim to come through instead. Amadum forces the alternate Haruto to tear the world apart. Amadum reveals the Riders are created from the source of evil, but he was wrong as the Riders used their powers to overcome Amadum, leaving him shocked that the riders were not creations of evil as he thought. The Riders are trying to stop him, but Amadum reveals his true form and manages to defeat the Riders and absorb the source of their powers (such as Haruto's rings and Tsukasa's cards). He was revealed to be once a powerful wizard who was also sealed away in this world, and was trying to release the seal upon him by using the Rider Rings. Amadum was the devilish ruler of the World within the Magic Stone, whose motive was to gain all of the Legend Rider Rings that supposedly have the ability to release all of the sealed monsters that were beaten by the Heisei-era Kamen Riders from the Magic Stone.
