History


In The W Search/ Two Detectives in One,

Personality

Shoutarou doesn't enjoy seeing his city cry, as he has mentioned many times. He also claims himself as a hard-boiled detective, unlike his friends, especially Philip referring him as a half-boiled, such as when he doesn't get the correct target, as he was thought to be inexperienced. But later, he earns the name, and no longer gets referred as half-boiled... Akiko normally knocks his on his head with a slipper, when he does something wrong. He is a well focused detective, who dresses like a 1980 fashion man.

Since Shoutarou is decisive and honed, he is a very remarked detective, even without the need of his partner. When he was forced to make a decisive and hard way, he had to put a lot of cruel emotions to the job that was bad yet necessary, that earned him to be hard-boiled. This was caused of his mentor also being like that, a hard yet necessary decision to make.

Shoutarou at first thought that Philip was a selfless man, and later realized about the real point of being a Kamen Rider. Even his relationship with Ryuu wasn't the best, due to his revenge and hard feelings he always turn against Shoutarou. But as Ryuu learns more about being a Kamen Rider, his soul changes to a best friend with Shoutarou.

He even built over relations with Philip, as to show emotion of what happens to him, compared to Philip's cold thinking. He wants Double to live up to the name "Kamen Rider", and so, he wants it to prevent his city of crying over grief.

He even feels guilty over the death of Sokichi, and doesn't even feel worthy of wearing his fedora hat, which is the most important thing to him. He also has a merciful side for his enemies, that gave him a good outlook, compared to his mentor, who mercilessly kills Dopants, such as Bat Dopant.

Shoutarou even felt not worthy of wearing his hat in the battle against Utopia Dopant. HIs emotion annd dedication also makes them have a reason for calling half-boiled, which he later accepts and uses it in different topics. He also has deep affections with also his friends, his clients, and the city itself, which makes him stronger to rule over to protect everything in his city with his power. He even overcome the maddening of Terror Dopant, despite having the same immunity as Philip and Ryuu do. Even though the enemies that makes Futo's citizens cry, he doesn't forgive them, yes, but he doesn't hold grudges near them either, but within the crime.

Transformations

Shoutarou will wear the Double Driver. He will then pick up his Joker Gaia Memory and press the button. He will insert the Gaia Memory into the Driver and wait for his partner to do the same. He then pulls it down, as his Philip faints and becomes the Kamen Rider.

To become his standalone form, Kamen Rider Joker, Shoutarou will wear the Lost Driver, a one slotted belt. He will take the Joker Gaia Memory and press it, before inserting it to the one slot and pulling it back. He will become the Rider afterwards.
