00:00Hello. Thank you for watching today.
00:16Today's topic is: Destroy Kikaider.
00:20I'm Hakaider, the artificial human.
00:22Hakaider was sent out by Professor Gill as a trump card to destroy Kikaider's fruit.
00:34He is so obsessed with defeating Kikaider that even the Dark Robots, who are supposed to be his allies, become his enemies in order to destroy him.
00:45This time, I would like to shine the spotlight on this lone wolf-like Hakaider.
00:52So let's take a look.
00:57First, let me explain about Kikaider, the man Hakaider is targeting.
01:03The show, Android Kikaider, aired from 1972 to 1973 for a total of 43 episodes.
01:14Kikaider was created by Dr. Komyoji, who was captured by the criminal organization Dark, but later escaped and went on to fight Dark.
01:27Professor Gill, the Dark Hunter, develops many dark robots and plots to conquer the world, but is thwarted one after another by Kikaider, so he develops Hakaider, the strongest cyborg robot that can destroy only Kikaider.
01:46Hakaider's appearance is dark, meaning he is completely black with yellow lightning bolts all over his outfit.
01:56His weapon is a specially designed, shining silver pistol called the Hakaider Shot, which fires light frequency bullets that can destroy even Kikaider's sturdy body.
02:08In addition, in hand-to-hand combat, he has special techniques such as the Moon Flying Kick, the Five-Step Hell Reversal, and the Guillotine Drop.
02:18He then drives his beloved superbike, a white crow, which means a lone wolf that has strayed from the pack, and faces off against Kikaider's side machine.
02:29The White Crow is powered by an atomic engine, boasts a top speed of 600 km/h, and is also capable of flight.
02:40The silver fuel tank and the meters on both sides of the body are painted with Hakaider's mark, and the front fork is equipped with a Satan cot from which rockets can be fired in rapid succession.
02:55The base vehicle for this white crow is a Kawasaki 750SSH2 Mach 4.
03:06In fact, Hakaider was developed by the captured Dr. Komyoji, so Hakaider's human form is named Saburo, the younger brother of Kikaider Jiro.
03:20However, Professor Gill takes Dr. Komyoji's brain hostage and transplants it into Hakaider, preventing Kikaider from defeating Hakaider.
03:32As for Hakaider's abilities, he has a demon circuit built into him that has the exact opposite function to his parent circuits, giving him fighting power that surpasses that of Kikaider, who has an incomplete parent circuit.
03:47His personality also inherits Dark's ferocity, and in order to defeat Kikaider, he even targets allied Dark robots that get in the way of his mission, and in the film, just like Kikaider, he is targeted by Dark as a traitor.
04:06And generally, he hated defeating people in a cowardly way, and would fight Kikaider head-on in a fair and honest manner.
04:18Hakaider has great destructive power even against Kikaider, but he also has a fatal weakness.
04:25This is because if Dr. Komyouji's brain does not receive a blood exchange at regular intervals, the brain will die and its fighting power will decrease dramatically.
04:38Therefore, even during his battle with Kikaider, he abandons the fight in order to exchange blood.
04:45Additionally, Kill believes he has taken Dr. Koumyouji's brain hostage, which has an unexpected side effect.
04:56This is because, after Hakaider's appearance, as time passes, Hakaider's behavior begins to change due to the influence of Dr. Koumyouji's brain.
05:08This causes mental confusion as to whether destroying Kikaider is really the mission they should be carrying out.
05:17In the end, Kikaider returns Hakaider's brain to Dr. Komyouji.
05:25In Kikaider, Hakaider's appearance ends when his brain is returned to Dr. Koumyouji, but in his own work, Kikaider 01, Hakaider is revived.
05:39At the end of Dark, Gill was seriously injured and near death, so Dark's technicians transplanted his brain into the remaining Hakaider.
05:47At the same time, the brains of the Dark executives are transplanted into the three Hakaiders.
05:54In Kikaider 01, there are four types of Hakaider: Gil Hakaider, Red Hakaider, Silver Hakaider, and Blue Hakaider.
06:05The four Hakaiders attack Kikaider 01 and Kikaider with combined attacks, including the Combined Hakaider.
06:13In addition, in 1994, a spin-off film, Android Hakaider, was released, which was set in a different setting from Kikaider and Kikaider 01.
06:30In the play, his human form's name is Ryo, not Saburo, and although he is not a champion of justice, he plays an active role as a dark hero.
06:40Additionally, he also appears in the 2014 film Kikaider Reboot as an android created to defeat Kikaider.
06:53Now, let's take a look at Hakaider in action.
06:56Thank you for watching.
07:26Thank you for watching.
07:56Thank you for watching.
08:26What did you think?
08:36In the 1970s, when complete punishment was the norm, Hakaider, who was an enemy but hated sneak attacks and fought heroes fair and square, was a fresh character at the time.
08:50Also, enemy characters usually only appear once, but a character like Hakaider who fights Kikaider multiple times was quite rare.
09:04As a result, many viewers even said it was cooler than Kikaider.
09:12That's amazing.
09:13Well, this time, see you next time. Bye.
