Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
- Kanpei Kuroda is portrayed by Junichi Haruta (春田 純一 Haruta Jun'ichi), who previously played Kanpei Kuroda/GoggleBlack. Haruta did most of his own stunts as DynaBlack, with Tsutomu Kitagawa (喜多 川務 Kitagawa Tsutomu) serving as an understudy.
Design[]
- DynaBlack has a spandex suit, with a white main body seen in the legs with a red stripe along the sides, with the torso covered by a black "short-sleeved" shirt with a red stripe down the middle and along the cuffs, similar to the appearance of a baseball jersey. Both his gloves and boots are black in color; while a holster on the right side where he holds his DynaRod and a pin on his left torso with the Dynaman logo on it. His belt surrounds his waist with a buckle in the shape of the DynaBrace. His helmet is black, with a black visor that rises up in the middle appearing like glasses and a gray mouthpiece. The top of the helmet has a silver stripe rising up triangularly with a yellow logo inside: the top with a "II" symbol (the Roman Numeral "2") and the letters "DB" (which stands for "DynaBlack"). The logo and the visor are separated by a raised silver "lid" similar to a baseball cap.
