Another Unlikely Duo! |
Here we have the Benkei and Beethoven Ghost set for Kamen Rider Ghost. I was certainly surprised (but intrigued) when Ludwig van Beethoven was included as one of the historical figures to lend his "powers" to Kamen Rider Ghost. Perhaps less shocking is that this form didn't get used as much as some of the other more combat oriented ones.
Benkei was a warrior monk who became part of Japanese folklore for his strength and devotion to honour. These two forms share a bit more of a monochromatic colour scheme. I'm not sure if that was intentional in pairing them up or if it was more related to the order in which they appeared on the show. But it was a mildly interesting factoid that jumped out of my brain.
