General Shadow is a majin from the Demon World and a major antagonist in Kamen Rider Stronger, serving as a major antagonist in the first half of the series and the main antagonist in the second half.

He initially appears as an executive of the Black Satan organization, having been recruited to replace the defeated Mr. Titan. After the organization's downfall, General Shadow leads the Delza Army to continue challenging Stronger.

What Makes Him Magnificent?[]

  • Joined Black Satan solely to fight Stronger and wants to fight him in a fair one-on-one duel, generally refrains from evil acts if they do not suit his goals.
  • Finds acts such as bringing children in harms way to be distasteful and even sets free a group of children taken hostage by a Kikkaijin.
  • When the Great Leader of Black Satan fires him and marks him for death, General Shadow manipulates Stronger into taking out the rest of the organization, paving the way for his Delza Army to emerge.
  • After the Delza Army begins their campaign, Shadow announces that whoever defeats Stronger will become their leader, causing the other executives of Delza to all focus on fighting him instead of challenging Shadow for his leadership of the Army.
  • When Marshal Machine challenges him for leadership, Shadow steps down peacefully and allows Machine to lead the army while staying on the sidelines.
  • Chooses to help Stronger thwart a scheme by Marshal Machine to scorch an area of Japan. This leads to Machine forcing Shadow to fight Stronger, but that was exactly what Shadow wanted.
  • In his duel with Stronger, Shadow exchanges a mutual attack with him that leaves him fatally wounded, but also injures Stronger enough to be at the mercy of the other Delza Army members. If not for the intervention of the other Kamen Riders, Stronger could have easily been killed due to Shadow.
  • In a meta sense, Shadow was popular enough with viewers to return in several crossovers and become one of the iconic villains of the Kamen Rider franchise.

What Makes Him a Bastard?[]

  • Assisted Black Satan in several of their terrorist attacks.
  • Repeatedly assaults Stronger in order to get the chance to fight him.
  • The soft civil war he organizes in Delza over who gets to defeat Stronger led to a lot of destruction and people getting caught in the crossfire.
