Black RX

"I am the child of the sun, Kamen Rider Black RX!"  

Kamen Rider Black RX started two weeks after Kamen Rider Black ended. Before the first episode of Kamen Rider Black RX there was a TV special "Kamen Rider Ichigo through RX ~ Big Gathering", which reviewed all the previous Kamen Rider series and gave a brief preview of Kamen Rider Black RX . Minami, Kotaro

 

The Kamen Rider Black RX series rather than introducing a totally new Kamen Rider character took an existing Kamen Rider and changed him. Rougly 1 year after the defeat of Gorgom by Kamen Rider Black earth is invaded by the Crisis Empire, aliens from another planet. Miniami, Kotaro (Kurata, Tetsuo) is captured by Crisis Empire and jetisioned into space, towards the sun. The solar radiation cracks the King Stone in his belt, changing him from Kamen Rider Black to Kamen Rider Black RX. RX was the first Kamen Rider to have multipe forms, Kamen Rider Black RX, Prince of Sadness: Roborider (introduced in episode 15) and Prince of Anger: Biorider (introduced in episode 17), each armed with a different weapon.

Roborider Biorider

RX used "RX Kick" had was armed with the Riblocane, essentially a lightsaber. Roborider is physically stronger than RX and is unharmed by explosions, but moved slower than RX. Roborider carried Vortek Shooter, an energy bolt firing pistol. Biorider could transform into energy, most forms of energy passed through his body without harming him. Biorider carried the unbreakable sword, Bioblade which could reflect energy weapons back at the attacker.

The RX, Roborider and Biorider costumes were worn by stuntman/actor Okamoto, Jiro.

3 Kamen Riders

Kamen Rider Black RX, Roborider and Biorider appeared in the movie Kamen Rider Black RX: Stay In The World aka "All Around The World" or "Running Around The World" (April 29, 1989). An animated version of RX is also in the movie Kamen Rider-SD (1993).

Kamen Rider Black RX seems to have been the least popular of the Kamen Rider series.

An Americanized version of Kamen Rider Black RX, called Masked Rider was produced and from what I've heard was a dismal failure.
