Kamen Rider Ouja

Kamen Rider Ohja (仮面ライダー王蛇, Kamen Raidā Ōja?) is a fictional character in the tokusatsu production Kamen Rider Ryuki. He is the sixth of the 13 Kamen Riders the story revolves around. He is sometimes called "Oja", "Ohja", and "Ouja". The kanji for Ohja translates out in Japanese as "King Snake" or "Cobra". His true identity is Takeshi Asakura and is portrayed by Takashi Hagino.

By default, Kamen Rider Ohja is a melee-based Rider. The fighting style of his alter ego, Takeshi Asakura, helped him in his victories more often than any of his Advent cards, although more than anything else, he used his Sword Vent card to summon a spiral sword. Once Ohja defeated Kamen Riders Gai and Raia, he had access to both their contract monsters and their Advent cards, turning the already homicidal Ohja into an even more dangerous force to be reckoned with.



biography
Takeshi Asakura began the series in prison for murder. He loves to fight, maim and otherwise destroy anything, in his random fits of rage.

At age 13, he murdered his entire family in a fire, though his younger brother survived. Asakura would act rude and aggressive to anyone he met, resulting with his defense attorney, Kitaoka Shuichi, quitting on him. Because he was in prison and could not feed his destructive nature, he gladly accepted Kanzaki's offer to join the Rider War. Becoming Ohja, he escaped jail with intent on paying back Kitaoka. In the process of learning of Kitaoka's identity as a Rider, Asakura attempted to lure him by staging a hostage situation to get Kitaoka. Though he lost to Zolda, Ohja survived and senselessly killed Kamen Rider Gai. Thanks to Ren, Asakura managed to fake his death while in reality escaping to the mirror world so he can fight in the Rider War without the police interfering, during his first escape. Ohja even captured Metalgelas at the same time when it attempted to avenge its master's death.

Ohja fought only to fight and was the first Rider to actually kill other Riders, killing Kamen Rider Raia and taking his Contract Monster afterwards. Ohja also destroyed Kamen Rider Imperer's Vent Deck, causing him to die in the Mirror World. Additionally, in the 13 Riders Special, he kills Kamen Rider Scissors.

As a wanted criminal, Asakura had to constantly hide from the law. When he gained his Rider powers, he was extremely contented with it and used the transformation in many forms to avoid the law. At first he had been thought to be dead after his aid from Ren, but later he was revealed to be alive, soon later captured and going in and out of jail for several instances. In one he escaped again, with aid of Metalgelas while in a police van and escaped to the mirror world. After a fight with Kamen Rider Ryuki and Kamen Rider Tiger he had been seriously injured and handed back to the authorities once again by Shinji. Soon he escaped again, with aid of his lawyer at that time where he had knocked his lawyer out and switched clothes with him.

Upon learning of Kitaoka's identity as a Rider, he formed a personal grudge against him that manifested in many attempts to harm Kitaoka. Asakura had Venosnaker kidnap Goro Yura so Ohja can pressure Zolda into bringing Knight, Ryuki and Raia to a specific meeting place. However, Goro escapes by picking the lock of the handcuffs. The two would fight many times throughout the series. Miyuki Tezuka, Kamen Rider Raia, also held a personal grudge against Asakura for ending the piano career of his friend, Yuichi Saito.

During the series, he came under fire from his three monsters when they were hungry for life energy. They came close to devouring Asakura if not for his strong determination. After hunting down three Mirror Monsters, Ohja was able to feed his contract monsters. Kamen Rider Knight and Zolda tried to prevent his monsters from feeding so that they would turn on him and remove Asakura from the Rider War. but Kamen Rider Ryuki intervened and allowed the monsters to feed because Asakura had actually saved a small girl from the three monsters they hunted.

At the end of the series he finally has his showdown with Zolda. Ohja, using his "Doomsday" Final Vent, destroys Magnugiga, Zolda's Contract Monster, as well as fatally injuring Zolda. Happy with his victory, he finds out that it was the assistant Goro, not his rival Kitaoka. He yelled in rage, and returned to the real world, numerously asking himself "Why?!". Just as well he eventually returned to reality and succumbed to his doomed fate. Though he knew, he had been finally found by the authorities and was surrounded, in the warehouse he was in. Seeing the police there with snipers pointed into the warehouse, he grabbed a metal rod, began running and screaming, in which he was fatally gunned down by them, brought to justice at last. But because Shiro restored time to its proper course after Yui's death, Asakura was given a second chance in life with no memory of being a Rider and keeping a low profile, currently no proof of having a criminal record.

In the movie, Episode Final, Asakura was repsonsible for the death of Miho Kirishima's sister. Because of this, she hunted him down for revenge. Ryuga later destroyed Genocider, which reverted Ohja to Blank Form. Weakened, Femme slashed right at Ohja's blank deck, destroying it. Shortly, Ohja's armor would disappear and Asakura dissolved in the Mirror World.

In the 13 Riders Special, Asakura was already a rider and in jail until Venosnaker busted its master out.
