Sakuya Tachibana (橘 朔也, Tachibana Sakuya) is a member of BOARD who transforms into Kamen Rider Garren (仮面ライダーギャレン, Kamen Raidā Gyaren, Masked Rider Garren).

History[]

Tachibana was originally a researcher of the Humanity Foundation who graduated from the Sazahaibu University and was selected to be the user of Rider System 01 after Go Kiryu was found to be incompatible with the system. By the start of the series, Tachibana begins to suffer a form of cellular breakdown with only sealing the Undead slowing down the process. That, combined with his feelings towards Kazuma being his backup when he can't manage it, Tachibana blames Karasuma for his condition. When he attempted in vain to seal the Locust Undead, Tachibana is forced to abduct Karasuma just prior to the Undead attacking BOARD. Though he intended to get the answers he needs, Karasuma was in a coma and put on life support with Tachibana safeguarding him until Hirose finds him. Though he leaves Karasuma in her care, it was revealed that the "Karasuma" he safeguarded was only a decoy. After his doctor and dear friend Sayoko Fukasawa relays Karasuma's message, that his subconscious fear is causing the breakdown, Tachibana encounters Isaka, the Peacock Undead, who personally attempts to retrieve him for his Leangle project. After escaping Isaka, Kotaro manages to talk Tachibana to not to let his fear control him though Tachibana denies that. He arrives to save Blade from the Trilobite Undead, however Garren's fusion rate goes down during his fight with the Undead. After being saved, Tachibana begs Karasuma for a means to be free of his fear, but Karasuma say he can't.

Though Tachibana attempts to resume a normal life by dating Sayoko, the Zebra Undead forces him to reveal himself as a Rider in front of Sayoko before vainly fighting the Undead before Blade arrives to aid him. In spite of Sayoko asking him to leave with her, Tachibana turns her down. While at BOARD's original location, Tachibana vainly battles the Peacock Undead, who defeats Garren and takes him with the intent to have Tachibana work for him by removing him of his fears with exposure to Schuld Kestner seaweed, an extinct plant that intensifies the aggressive nature of the subject. Though he became more aggressive and worked under Isaka for more of the seaweed, Tachibana was unaware of the eventual damage it would do to his nervous system. Though Sayoko warned him in vain, Tachibana shrugged it off until he learned that Isaka had murdered Sayoko for meddling in his affairs, defeating the Peacock Undead and sealed him. Later, as his way of repenting for being manipulated by an Undead, Tachibana takes Mutsuki under his wing.

During the final few episodes, Kamen Rider Garren came face to face with the Category King of Diamonds and battled it out with him. The Undead told him that if he was sealed, Joker would be declared winner and that all of humanity would suffer because of his choice. Garren discarded this and answered, "I will believe in my friends." The battle ended with Garren nowhere to be found and the King Undead sealed leaving the Joker as the winner however, it would cause an unintentional death of billion species due to Joker's uncontrollable Undead nature. He is found upon the arrival of the Chief telling Kazuma that he was saved because of him. He arrived and assisted an unarmed Blade King Form, finished off the remaining Black Roach Undeads with the King Rouzer, and wished him good luck against Hajime. Due to his Rider system still being broken, Tachibana fought multiple Black Roach Undeads alone as a normal person while waiting for Kazuma to stop Hajime's suffering. After all Black Roach Undeads suddenly disappear, he and Mutsuki went to the forest where Kazuma and Hajime fought, only to find Hajime alone who is trying to follow Kazuma but lost track of him. They soon realized that Kazuma has become an Undead and left, his whereabouts unknown. With the crisis averted, Tachibana and the others resumed their normal lives. Looking at a picture of himself with Kazuma and their friends, Tachibana reminisced the time they spent together, silently awaiting for Kazuma's return.

Tachibana and Mutsuki appear as witness in the battle between Kazuma and Fake Blade, with both of them confused to see two Kazumas. Tachibana viewed on how Mutsuki attacked by error to the real Kazuma. Tachibana states that he used his Garren Rouzer and how he knew Kenzaki long ago. According to him, he knew who was the real one and who was not, but ends up shooting him by mistake. Due to Hajime's unexpected help to differentiate to the two Blades, he and Mutsuki give their Rouse cards and were surprised because the Kenzaki Jack Form and King Form being viewed at the same time. Tachibana and Mutsuki viewed how the real Blade destroyed the imitation and later had a little discussion with Musuki on what card helped Kenzaki first. [Kamen Rider Blade: Blade vs. Blade]

After the end of the Battle Fight in the TV series, Tachibana as Garren appears riding the red Rhombus to give the Rouzer cards to Hajime and Mutsuki to fight against the fake Blade. He explains that he and Chief Karasuma were conducting an investigation into how to turn Kazuma and Hajime into humans by creating a new Undead from Chameleon DNA, but the new Chameleon Undead stole all of the BOARD Riders information. The Chameleon Undead transforms into King Form and brutally defeats the Riders. However, they are saved by the arrival of a Joker Undead, who they quickly deduce is not Hajime due to his lack of scarring. Acting quickly, Tachibana quickly tosses the Joker the Blay Buckle, allowing Kenzaki to use his Rouse Cards in order to seal the false Rider. After the crisis resolved, all items associated with Blade were found neatly left on the floor. [Day After Tomorrow]

Tachibana was found to be cruelly ambushed by Hajime as Chalice. After being saved by Kyoichiro, he revealed that his cover to attack Shocker alongside Kenzaki was blown and was being attacked so they would become a full fledged Shocker Riders. Asking for Kyoichiro for help, he alongside Go and Yuto moved to save Kazuma. But it was all a ruse to capture Go and Yuto instead as Tachibana, and Kazuma had been brainwashed from the start.

But later, he aided the Riders against Shocker after they despised how Shocker acts and also freed from the remains of Shocker's brainwashing inside them after Takeshi Hongo alongside Hayato Ichimonji broke free from Rider Robo.

Surviving the onslaught of the History Modifying Machine, Garren fought and destroyed Shocker's Marshal Machine with the Burning Smash shortly before the Rider Robo was destroyed along with the machine by Shurikenjin TridoronIcon-crosswiki. Among the remaining Riders who witnessed the farewell of Kyoichiro Kuroi as the perversion of history was reversed, Garren's place in history was restored.

Like Blade, Garren uses a Rouse Card points via attacks, but unlike Blade is that Garren's boost-up (Bullet Armadillo) is much safer without having this effect removed after Garren riding his bike, and Garren's Jack Form is his only for final form as of Garren's last TV series appearance.

Personality[]

Sakuya Tachibana is a kind man with a strong sense of justice; hence his given role as Kamen Rider Garren. At first, bitter at BOARD's actions and collapsement, Tachibana acted in a rather cynical manner, something made apparent in his interaction with Kenzaki. This was agitated even worse from his body's sudden breakdown, something which Tachibana blamed on the Garren Buckle and Rouze cards. Simultaneously though, if truly needed, Tachibana did save others from the Undeads' rampages, showing little hesitation in battle.

Upon learning about the true cause of his body's slow breakdown, Tachibana tried to quit being a Kamen Rider all together. When realizing this cannot be done, he then resorted to using a special drug to calm his fears, becoming addicted to its effects. When Sayako was killed at the hands of the Peacock Undead however, Tachibana was filled with remorse, lamenting his inner weakness. Conquering his addiction and fears, Tachibana defeated the Peacock Undead in a duel, avenging Sayoko's untimely death.

Afterwards, feeling unworthy to be a Kamen Rider, Tachibana restrained himself from fighting the Undeads, mistakenly believing this as an act of atonement. Once encountering his senior Kiryu though, Tachibana eventually used the Garren Buckle once more, being reminded of why he became Kamen Rider Garren in the first place.

Later, as Tachibana continues to fight alongside his allies, he shows a more concerned, nice and friendly disposition, qualities that he had always had within himself but were initially suppressed. His love towards his friends and people in general became more pronounced, as his growing courage.

In the novel Kamen Rider Blade: Twilight, Tachibana is revealed to have become the head of BOARD, now using the company's resources to help others. According to the author of the novel, after the events of Kamen Rider Blade, Tachibana became determined to remedy Kenzaki's mutation, going far as voluntarily experimenting on his own body, which turned him into a pseudo Undead. Despite decades having passed, Tachibana is still concerned about his friend, continuing his experiments with Undead DNA and keeping tabs on Kenzaki whenever possible.

Fighting skill[]

In contrast to Blade, Garren is primarily a long-ranged fighter, though also capable of close-quarter combat when necessary. Through use of the Rouse cards, Garren can enhance his physical capabilities, strengthen his arsenals, harness and release fire, create a copy of himself, and mimic the abilities of others. Depending on the type of Rouse card, Garren is also able to combine their abilities, granting him several finishing moves. Furthermore, he can borrow the Rouse card of other BOARD Riders, allowing him to utilize their special abilities as well.

In Jack Form, Garren is able to fly at will, becoming significantly swifter and stronger than his default form. His Garren Rouzer is enhanced as well, increasing Garren's overall capabilities.

Chosen by BOARD to replace Go as Kamen Rider Garren, Tachibana swiftly proved himself a competent fighter, being an excellent marksman. However, from fear plaguing his mind, Tachibana gradually found himself weakening with each battle, leading to several defeats against "lesser" Undeads.

Upon using a special drug to calm his fears, Tachibana became more aggressive as Garren, unwittingly becoming a pawn for Isaka. From Sayoko's death though, Tachibana ultimately gained the will to confront his fears, overcoming his addiction in the process.

His body now fully recovered, Tachibana's combat prowess rose significantly, allowing him to later defeat Go as Kamen Rider Leangle. This prowess continued to increase with time, causing Tachibana to become more resilient in the process. Evidently, in his battle against the Giraffa Undead, Tachibana managed to face him on equal footing, despite the Giraffa Undead's immense strength and powers. Succeeding where even Kamen Rider Wild Chalice failed, Tachibana ultimately won the fight through pure determination.

Jack Form (ジャツクフォーム, Jakku Fōmu) is a combat extension of the Rider System which harnesses the power of Category Jack Rouse Cards via the Rouse Absorber. It is Garren's final form, and Garren assumes it by inserting the Absorb Serpent into the Rouse Absorber and scanning the Fusion Peacock Rouse Card. This endows the Rider Armor with the attributes and characteristics of the Peacock Undead's DNA, enhancing Garren's natural combat capacities.

In this form, Garren gains golden reinforced armor plating which increases his resilience to enemy attacks. Garren also gains wings on his back, enabling him to fly. Assuming this form additionally upgrades the Garren Rouzer into its Empowered Type, which equips it with a bayonet and expands its AP cache.

King Form (キングフォーム, Kingu Fōmu) is the the ultimate combat extension of the Rider System. This transformation is initiated by inserting the Absorb Serpent Rouse Card into the Rouse Absorber and scanning the Evolution Giraffa Rouse Card. It is Garren's extra final form, and endows the Rider Armor with the attributes and characteristics of the Giraffa Undead's DNA.

Due to having his Garren Buckle broken when he sealed the Giraffa Undead, Tachibana never had the chance to assume this form during the events of the original Kamen Rider Blade series proper. In later years, however, Tachibana was able to assume Garren King Form after re-obtaining the Evolution Giraffa Rouze Card. Unlike Blade, this form only allows Garren to fuse with the Category King instead of all 13 Rouse Cards in the Diamonds Suit due to his fusion rate being normal.

Unlike the S.I.C. version, this iteration of Garren King Form has his own set of Guild Rouse Cards, though only the Category Ace and King cards were shown on-screen. It is unknown if the same applies to the rest of his cards since he is not fused with any of them.

While never assumed in the series, Garren's King Form (キングフォーム, Kingu Fōmu) can be seen in the S.I.C. Hero Saga toyline. Garren would theoretically assume this form by inserting the Absorb Serpent Rouse Card into the Rouse Absorber and scanning the Evolution Giraffa Rouse Card.

Due to having his Garren Buckle broken when he sealed the Giraffa Undead, Tachibana never had the chance to assume this form. Unlike Blade, this form would in theory only allow Garren to fuse with the Category King instead of all 13 Rouse Cards in the Diamonds Suit due to his fusion rate being normal. Due to this, 13 Rouse Cards don't evolve into Guild Rouse Cards, and the Rouzer that Garren wields in King Form has storage for Rouse Cards. In later years, with the commercialization of S.I.C., the cloak on the back was changed to an insect wing-like equipment.

Behind the scenes[]

Portrayal[]

Sakuya Tachibana is portrayed by Hironari Amano (天野 浩成, Amano Hironari), later credited as Kousei Amano in the character's appearances after 2008. As Kamen Rider Garren, his suit actor was Yoshifumi Oshikawa (押川 善文, Oshikawa Yoshifumi).

Etymology[]

  • The name "Garren" is most likely derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the word "currency" (キャレンシー, Kyarenshī), tying in with the Minor Arcana version of the Suit of Diamonds; the Suit of Coins.

Memes[]

  • The scene in the first episode where Garren observed Blade fighting Locust Undead from afar was made into various parodies where fans would place Garren peaking onto another character. This scene is memorable as "Why are you just watching!!" (なぜ見てるんです!!, Naze miterun desu!!), which was the line delivered by Blade before he enacted the infamous Ondul meme.
  • As mentioned above, the quote from episode 3 when Tachibana proclaims how the Rider System damaged his body has become a viral meme in the Japanese fandom, due to the way he delivered the line: "My body is falling apart!" (俺の体はボロボロだ!, Ore no karada wa boroboroda!). This line was also self-referenced in one of the ending bumpers for the Super Hero TimeIcon-crosswiki programming block.[8]
  • Tachibana is perhaps most infamously known for the final scene of episode 7, where the camera zooms in onto him screaming for his life as the Trilobite Undead approaches him.
  • In episode 15, just before delivering the Burning Divide attack towards the Peacock Undead, Garren shouts out Sayoko Fukasawa's name, who was killed by said Undead. This scene has been parodied within the Japanese fandom and also used in Climax Heroes game starting from Fourze.
  • In episode 21, Tachibana trained Mutsuki in an automated baseball field. He caught an incoming ball and shouting three (hence "SAN!!") before revealing the ball to Mutsuki. This scene becomes memorable due to his over the top manner in shouting it. The Twitter account of Kamen Rider Zi-O even referenced this as part of their promotional campaign for Kamen Rider Zi-O NEXT TIME: Geiz, Majesty, where Garren was advertised with this slogan.[9]
  • There is a running joke among Japanese fans where he is associated with a type of food known as Kara Miso (辛味噌), due to the last line of his insert song, Rebirth, has the chorus (Gotta be strong) sounding similar to the name of said food.
