Masato Kusaka is the wielder of the Kaixa Gear, which he uses to transform into Kamen Rider Kaixa and the tritagonist of Kamen Rider 555.
Why He (Intentionally?) Sucks
- Kusaka's main problem is that he's a psychotic jerk due to his hatred towards Takumi and doing villainous acts for self-pettiness and him being spiteful.
- Although he's meant to be a love to hate character, there was no point or end goal in having that character, not to mention most of the other characters in Faiz are also mean-spirited, so it feels super unbalanced.
- He never gets any character development at all.
- Kusaka manipulates Takumi and Kiba to fight each other for his own gain and amusement just so that Takumi would never have allies.
- He takes his relationship with Mari so far that he's a pedophile:
- In the non-canon novel where he serves as the main antagonist, he rapes Mari leading to Kiba to hate him and the humanity, but still makes Mari's life a living hell since she's 16. How inhumane is thatǃ
- Then, he kills Yuka Osada when she did nothing to him. Also, she was pregnant with Keitaro or Kaido's kid!
- In the non-canon novel where he serves as the main antagonist, he rapes Mari leading to Kiba to hate him and the humanity, but still makes Mari's life a living hell since she's 16. How inhumane is thatǃ
- He is so racist to any Orphnoch, regardless of personality, saying that he will kill them all with a passion.
- Irony: He got injected with Orphnoch DNA, which makes him an Orphnoch himself.
- Kusaka even tried to kill Takumi when he knew he was the wolf Orphnoch.
- He is a hypocrite because even though he hates Orphnoch, he is technically an Orphnoch and his partner Takumi, who is also an Orphnoch.
- He is at his worst in episode 30 of 555 and the Kamen Rider 555 Seiden: Deformed Flowers novel.
- He is a Karma Houdini who gets no consequences for his actions.
- He is considered to this day as the worst secondary rider to exist in the history of the franchise.
Redeeming Qualities
- He is much better in Kamen Rider Zi-O.
- The actor who portrays him Kohei Murakami, is very charismatic and did a good job playing him
- Two Words: KAIXA DAY
- He did redeem himself in Faiz but not that much.
- He got his comeuppance in episode 48.
