This article is about a device in Kamen Rider X. |
The Mercury Circuit (マーキュリー回路, Mākyurī Kairo) was a circuit installed in the Kamen Rider X's body, given by Kamen Rider V3.
In addition to producing the Mercury Power (マーキュリーパワー, Mākyurī Pawā) required to release a new finisher Vacuum Hell Wheel (almost not mentioned in the series), all physical capabilities such as jump power and endurance are tripled from before.
History[]
Kamen Rider X was captured and had his energy absorbed by G.O.D.'s villain monster Spider-Napoleon. At the last moment, Kamen Rider V3 appeared and challenged him to a battle, only to disappear, escaping with X. Keisuke Jin's life was in danger and his power wasn't enough to face his opponent. To help the fellow Rider, Kamen Rider V3 decided to give him the Mercury Circuit, which could greatly power up Kamen Rider X. However, Kamen Rider V3 needed to transfer a large amount of his blood to him in the process, weakening himself.
Spider-Napoleon soon attacked again, forcing Kamen Rider V3 into action before he had recovered. Kamen Rider V3 managed to rescue his hostages, but was overwhelmed by Spider-Napoleon and the rebuilt Mach Achilles and Salamander-Gong. He was rescued by the powered up Kamen Rider X, who finished off Spider-Napoleon, while Kamen Rider V3, even weakened, beat Mach Achilles and Salamander-Gong together. [Look! X-Rider's Great Transformation!!]
Overview[]
By strengthening the physical specifications, it is now possible to exert more fighting abilities than previous Rider. After strengthening, the X-Rider used a lot of punching techniques, and the tactics of brute force became conspicuous.
A New Transformation[]
The transformation process has also been changed due to the function of the circuit. From then onward, Keisuke used the phrase "Dai Henshin!" (大変身!, Dai Henshin) to transform while making a "X" sign with his arms.
Notes[]
- The children's magazine at the time of this broadcast said that the place where the circuit was embedded was on the chest, but the whole body other than that was also being modified.
