Kamen Rider Accel (仮面ライダーアクセル, Kamen Raidā Akuseru) is a fictional character in the 2009 – 2010 Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider Double, and is the series second Kamen Rider after the titlular Kamen Rider Double. The name comes from the English word "acceleration" and his motif is that of the letter A as well as a motorcycle.
Ryu Terui
Ryu Terui (照井 竜, Terui Ryū, portrayed by Minehiro Kinomoto) is a Superintendent appointed to the Futo Police Department's Paranormal Crime Investigation Division (超常犯罪捜査課, Chōjō Hanzai Sōsaka), and is Jinno and Makura's superior. After meeting the mysterious woman Shroud upon his arrival in Futo, Terui gains the ability to transform into Kamen Rider Accel. Unlike Shotaro who wants to protect Futo out of his love for the city, Terui hates Futo and sees it as a gathering place of all kinds of scum. This results from the murder of his family by the user of the W memory while he was still attending police academy. Despite this, he is not above directly coming to both Shotaro and Philip for help when it comes to investigating the Dopant crime wave, as well as fighting alongside Double. He has even started to pick up some of Shotaro's habits in dealing with Dopants. By encountering Shroud, Ryu receives the means to hunt down the W Memory owner as Accel. He tends to say "Now, let's break away!" (さあ、振り切るぜ!, Saa, furikiru ze!) whenever he assumes his Rider forms and states "Despair awaits you at the finish!" (絶望がお前(たち)のゴールだ!, Zetsubō ga omae (-tachi) no gōru da!) upon executing a Maximum Drive attack.
In a post-credits scene for Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Double & Decade: Movie War 2010, Ryu Terui makes a cameo appearance where he claims that Double is not the only Rider in town (he is only credited in this role as the "mysterious man").
Kamen Rider Accel
Like Kamen Rider Double, Ryu Terui transforms into Kamen Rider Accel through the use of USB flash drive-like objects called Gaia Memories (ガイアメモリ, Gaia Memori). However, Accel only has access to a single form with which he fights through the use of the Accel Memory which he inserts into the Accel Driver. His Maximum Drive is the AccelGlanzer (アクセルグランツァー, Akuseru Gurantsā) Rider Kick, after charging up power to a point where Accel's body is engulfed in orange flames, he executes a jumping spinning heel kick which releases energy in the form of tread marks.[1][2]
Bike Form
The power of the Accel Memory allows Kamen Rider Accel to assume a motorcycle-like form called Bike Form (バイクフォーム, Baiku Fōmu). This form is accessed by removing the Accel Driver buckle from the belt when the Face Flasher (フェイスフラッシャー, Feisu Furasshā) lights up and when transformed, it allows Kamen Rider Accel to reach speeds of 920 km/h.[3] Bike Form can also combine with Kamen Rider Double's Boilder, Turbuler, or Splasher units to become the AccelBoilder (アクセルボイルダー, AkuseruBoirudā, Start Dash Mode, as well), AccelTurbuler (アクセルタービュラー, AkuseruTāburā), or the AccelSplasher (アクセルスプラッシャー, AkuseruSupurashā).
Equipment
Accel Driver
The Accel Driver (アクセルドライバー, Akuseru Doraibā) is Kamen Rider Accel's transformation belt. It is a third generation Memory Driver given to Ryu Terui by the mysterious woman known only as "Shroud". The Accel Driver resembles a set of motorcycle handlebars. By inserting the Accel Memory into the Mono Slot (モノスロット, Mono Surotto) and revving the Power Throttle (パワースロットル, Pawā Surottoru) on the right handlebar, Ryu Terui transforms into Kamen Rider Accel. By squeezing the Maximum Clutch Lever (マキシマムクラッチレバー, Makishimamu Kuratchi Rebā) on the left handlebar and revving the Power Throttle, Kamen Rider Accel initiates his Maximum Drive (マキシマムドライブ, Makishimamu Doraibu) finisher attack.[4]
Gaia Memories
Like Kamen Rider Double, Kamen Rider Accel possesses his own set of Gaia Memories (ガイアメモリ, Gaia Memori). Compared to Dopant Gaia Memories, Accel's Gaia Memories are refined in appearance, a fact that Shinkuro Isaka claims to be indicative of the limits placed on their powers.
- Accel Memory (アクセルメモリ, Akuseru Memori): The Accel Memory, or Acceleration Memory (加速の記憶, Kasoku no Kioku), is Kamen Rider Accel's primary Gaia Memory. This enables Terui to transform into Kamen Rider Accel and access his primary Maximum Drive, as well as allow him to assume Bike Form.
- Engine Memory (エンジンメモリ, Enjin Memori): The Engine Memory is a Gaia Memory that gives the Engine Blade its various different powers. It is not a true Gaia Memory however, and its powers are linked to those of the Accel Memory. This allows it to have more than one ability, each based on a different type of engine: Steam (スチーム, Suchīmu), which creates a wave or wall of hot steam; Jet (ジェット, Jetto), which allows the Engine Blade to execute super heated slashes or fire a bladed energy wave; and Electric (エレクトリック, Erekutorikku), which allows the Engine Blade to perform electrically charged slashes or fire a bolt of electricity.
- Cyclone Memory (サイクロンメモリ, Saikuron Memori): Ryu is briefly lent Philip's Cyclone Memory to battle the Weather Dopant. When inserted into the Engine Blade, it allows Kamen Rider Accel to perform a wind-powered Maximum Drive strong enough to wound even the Weather Dopant.
Engine Blade
The Engine Blade (エンジンブレード, Enjin Burēdo) is Kamen Rider Accel's main weapon. The weapon can be wielded outside of Accel's transformation, though it is extremely heavy. Through the use of the Engine Memory, Kamen Rider Accel can use the Engine Blade's different elemental abilities by pulling the trigger. It also allows Accel to perform two unique Maximum Drive finishers with the Engine Blade. The first is the Dynamic Ace (ダイナミックエース, Dainamikku Ēsu) in which a concentration of energy in the shape of the letter A is sent out from the Engine Blade. The second is called the A-Slasher (エースラッシャー, Ē Surasshā) where Kamen Rider Accel performs three consecutive slashes that form the letter A in a horizontal or vertical plane, slashing through the Dopant to destroy it. The Engine Blade can also be used with any of Double's Memories.[5]
Memory Gadgets
Like Double, Kamen Rider Accel has his own Memory Gadget (メモリガジェット, Memori Gajetto), an item powered by an artificialGaia Memory called a Giji Memory (ギジメモリ, Giji Memori, "Pseudo Memory") that allows it to switch between its Gadget Mode (ガジェットモード, Gajetto Mōdo) and its Live Mode (ライブモード, Raibu Mōdo).
- The Beetle Phone (ビートルフォン, Bītoru Fon) is a mobile phone that switches between Cell Phone Mode (携帯モード, Keitai Mōdo) and Beetle Mode (ビートルモード, Bītoru Mōdo) with the use of the Beetle Memory (ビートルメモリ, Bītoru Memori). It looks similar to the Stag Phone, except it has a blue Japanese rhinoceros beetle design. Prior to its appearance in the series, Ryu Terui used the Beetle Phone to spy on the Narumi Detective Agency.
Diablossa
The Diablossa (ディアブロッサ, Diaburossa) is Kamen Rider Accel's personal Ducati 999 motorcycle. It also has a holder for the Engine Blade. Its name comes from the Italian words "Diablo" and "Rosso".[6]
Gunner A
The Revol-Interchange Gunner A (リボル換装 ガンナーA, Riboru Kansō Gannā Ē) is a robotic tank that serves as Kamen Rider Accel's support droid. Its AI allows it to operate on its own from Accel. The technology is similar to Kamen Rider Double's HardBoilder and the front unit can also combine with the Gunner A to become the HardGunner (ハードガンナー, HādoGannā).[7]
AccelGunner
Kamen Rider Accel Bike Form can combine with the Gunner A to become the AccelGunner (アクセルガンナー, Akuseru Gannā). The Accel Memory links with the Gaia Cannon (ガイアキャノン, Gaia Kyanon) to release energy similar to a Maximum Drive. It is also armed with the Gattling Wheel (ガトリングホイール, Gatoringu Hoīru), Bike Form's back wheel turned into a machine gun.[8]
