Icon-kabutoThis article is about a rider/monster in Kamen Rider Kabuto.

Masato Mishima (三島 正人, Mishima Masato) was the aide of ZECT HQ's leader, Riku Kagami and temporarily became Kamen Rider TheBee (仮面ライダーザビー, Kamen Raidā ZaBī, Masked Rider TheBee)) after the defeat of Shun Kageyama. In the climax of the series, he became the Gryllus Worm (グリラスワーム, Gurirasu Wāmu).

Biography[]

At times he does communicate with So Yaguruma and Syuichi Tadokoro to brief the ZECT teams about the Worms. Eventually, he was upset with Yaguruma botching a mission and Tadokoro questioning him about ZECT's agenda. There's implication that he has no faith in Kageyama as TheBee, despite Kageyama being loyal to ZECT and was looked down upon by Kamishiro. He has no sense of taste, and finishes eating by taking a supplement. He forcefully became TheBee at one time despite the TheBee Zecter's attempt to reject him. He truly thinks Kageyama was an eyesore because he can only complain and has lost the TheBee Zecter. He also seems to have a connection to Rena Mamiya/Uca Worm and had always kept the Hyper Zecter with him. Renge manages to steal the case with the Hyper Zecter, but Uca Worm takes it back only to find that the case has been rigged with a bomb.

Mishima tries to destroy the Hyper Zecter with the bomb. After the explosion, he taunts Tendo for failing to obtain the Hyper Zecter. However, he doesn't realize the power of the Zecter as it manages to find its way to Tendo, much to his chagrin. He then tosses his glasses to the ground in anger. He gradually loses respect for Riku Kagami's servile manner toward the Natives. After realizing Negishi found out about the Red-Shoes system, he makes a pact with Negishi and overthrows Riku Kagami as leader of ZECT. Using the Natives' pendants, he gains the ability to turn into Gryllus Worm, the strongest Native. He was defeated by Hyper Kabuto's and Gatack's Rider Kick and then destroyed by the meteorite explosion that obliterated the studio set.

Personality[]

Mishima is a no-nonsense, stoic and calculating individual as a devout member of ZECT. He shows no reluctance or resistance in dealing with the more shady business for ZECT. While he treats his superior with high regards, he treats the rest of the ZECT members, especially Kageyama beneath him. During the final stages of the series, he no longer treats Riku as his superior anymore, having become tired of his overly obedient manner towards the Natives. As a result, he shows no qualms in taking over his position as the leader of ZECT, and even goes along with Negishi's plan to turn everyone into Natives.

He has a habit of dropping his glasses into the ground and smashing them with his feet when he is agitated.

In the final episode, he admits that he has a deep hatred towards people who are righteous, like Kagami and Tendo.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

As the Gryllus Worm, Mishima is one of, if not the most powerful Native Worm ever. In this form, Mishima is able to casually swat away the likes of Dark Kabuto and Gatack without difficulty. In fact, he can even overpower Hyper Kabuto and Gatack at the same time (Kabuto's Maximum Hyper Typhoon fails to damage him). His stingers on the back are also so powerful, that they allow him to counter a Rider Kick from Dark Kabuto and knocks him out. However, the very same stingers are his vital weaknesses. When they are hit with enough force, such as with Gatack's caliburs, they render him weakened for a brief moment, and vulnerable to attacks. In fact, it is only after Gatack accidentally finds out this weakness that the two are able to win against the Gryllus Worm.

Abilities[]

  • Expert Combatant: Despite not being in the fighting department of ZECT, he has proven himself to be excellent in combat. He is able to jump incredibly high to catch the TheBee Zecter and use it to soundly defeat the Formicaalubus Worm that even Shun, the primary user of TheBee, previously has trouble with, even without using the finishing attack. It is even more notable that he is able to do this in spite of the fact that the TheBee Zecter does not choose him as its owner.

Forms[]

He only used the TheBee Zecter for a short period. In episode 48 of Kamen Rider Kabuto, he assumes the form of the strongest Native Worm, Gryllus Worm.

However, once Gatack destroyed his shoulder protrusions, he was severely weakened, and he was destroyed by Hyper Kabuto and Gatack's (Double) Rider Kick.

  • Zecter Needle: TheBee's prick-stinger used to perform Rider Sting attack

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

Masato Mishima is portrayed by Tomohisa Yuge (弓削 智久, Yuge Tomohisa), who previously portray Goro Yura in Kamen Rider Ryuki and would later portray Kiyojiro Bando in Kamen Rider Gaim.

As Kamen Rider TheBee, his suit actors were Makoto Ito (伊藤 慎, Itō Makoto) and Yoshifumi Oshikawa (押川 善文, Oshikawa Yoshifumi).

Concept Art[]

Gryllus Worm was designed by Yasushi Nirasawa (韮沢 靖, Nirasawa Yasushi).

Notes[]

  • Masato is the only user of TheBee who didn't become his own Rider after his TheBee powers were lost, instead turning himself into a Worm and becoming the final antagonist of the series. Thus, whenever TheBee appears in future crossovers, it is assumed that it is Masato who became TheBee since the previous TheBee users had their own Rider powers in their future appearances.
  • Out of all Original Riders that returned in Decade, he is one of the numerous already deceased Riders in TV series to make a return in Decade, along with Masato Kusaka/Kamen Rider Kaixa, Shun Kageyama/Kamen Rider PunchHopper, and Tsurugi Kamishiro/Kamen Rider Sasword.
  • Masato is the second rider to have a Wasp motif the first being Kazuya Oki/Kamen Rider Super-1 from Kamen Rider Super-1.
