Kaijin rider

Posted on August 19th, 2008 in Uncategorized by admin

Kaijin (literally meaning mysterious person or strange person), is a term used in usually in tokusatsu, which describes humanoid monsters; some are depicted as evil, sadistic, and savage, while some are depicted as extremely unintelligent and sometimes perverse. Eventually, in later shows, there would be many ally kaijin as well.

Kaijin in Tokusatsu

Usually, heroic monsters were from the daikaiju films. It wasn’t until later on that tokusatsu began using kaijin which aided the hero or saved civilians, which became evident in the Kamen Rider Series. There were also some who just hung out with the heroes and provided the comedy relief, most of this happening in Super Sentai. In the West, while the term itself is used to describe many monsters from tokusatsu and Japanese folklore, monsters like vampires, werewolves, Frankenstein’s Monster, mummies, zombies, and other Western entities from Western Mythology, are in this category to an extent, but not most of the time; however, they are credited to the contribution of many tokusatsu kaijin designs.
