[[folder:Kotaro Minami / Kamen Rider Black RX]]
!!!Portrayed by: Creator/TetsuoKurata (live), Jiro Okamoto (suit actor)
Our hero, now 20 years old and working as a helicopter pilot for the Sahara family. When the Crisis Empire invades Earth, they capture Kotaro to prevent Kamen Rider Black from posing a threat to them and throw him out into space, only for the sun's radiation to recreate Kotaro's broken Kingstone and grant him the power to transform into the stronger Kamen Rider Black RX.
----
* BadassBiker: His return as Black RX also sees Battle Hopper being revived as Acrobatter, allowing him to become this again.
* BreakoutCharacter: He's already the protagonist, but considering he's the only lead Kamen Rider to get to star in his own sequel series he definitely qualifies by ''Kamen Rider'' standards. To this day, he's nearly as popular as [[Series/KamenRider Takeshi Hongo]] himself.
* CameBackStrong: The Crisis Empire threw him out into space in an attempt to kill him, but being closer to the sun just makes him come back as the more powerful Black RX.
* DecompositeCharacter: Black RX is often made a separate character from Kamen Rider Black in {{Crossover}} events to justify the two Riders appearing side by side. Whether the other Kotaro is the from an AlternateUniverse, TimeTravel or by some other means isn't always clear.
* TheDeterminator: Never gives up his fight against the Crisis Empire. Whenever he's a particularly tight pinch he just ''wills'' himself another form to get out of it.
* TheHero: Carrying on the role as the sole person fighting the Crisis Empire's invasion.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: "I am the child of the sun! Kamen Rider! Black! RX!"
* ThePowerOfTheSun: The sun is his main source of power, and responsible for giving him his new form as Kamen Rider Black RX.

!Kamen Riders
[[folder:Kotaro Minami / Kamen Rider Black RX]]
!!!Portrayed by: Creator/TetsuoKurata (live), Jiro Okamoto (suit actor)
Our hero, now 20 years old and working as a helicopter pilot for the Sahara family. When the Crisis Empire invades Earth, they capture Kotaro to prevent Kamen Rider Black from posing a threat to them and throw him out into space, only for the sun's radiation to recreate Kotaro's broken Kingstone and grant him the power to transform into the stronger Kamen Rider Black RX.
----
* BadassBiker: His return as Black RX also sees Battle Hopper being revived as Acrobatter, allowing him to become this again.
* BreakoutCharacter: He's already the protagonist, but considering he's the only lead Kamen Rider to get to star in his own sequel series he definitely qualifies by ''Kamen Rider'' standards. To this day, he's nearly as popular as [[Series/KamenRider Takeshi Hongo]] himself.
* CameBackStrong: The Crisis Empire threw him out into space in an attempt to kill him, but being closer to the sun just makes him come back as the more powerful Black RX.
* DecompositeCharacter: Black RX is often made a separate character from Kamen Rider Black in {{Crossover}} events to justify the two Riders appearing side by side. Whether the other Kotaro is the from an AlternateUniverse, TimeTravel or by some other means isn't always clear.
* TheDeterminator: Never gives up his fight against the Crisis Empire. Whenever he's a particularly tight pinch he just ''wills'' himself another form to get out of it.
* TheHero: Carrying on the role as the sole person fighting the Crisis Empire's invasion.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: "I am the child of the sun! Kamen Rider! Black! RX!"
* ThePowerOfTheSun: The sun is his main source of power, and responsible for giving him his new form as Kamen Rider Black RX.
!!!Tropes exclusive to Black RX
* FinishingMove: RX Kick!, an upgraded form of his Rider Kick.
* FragileSpeedster: As Biorider, RX is super fast at the cost of losing defense.
* JackOfAllStats: His base Black RX form. He doesn't have the SuperStrength of Roborider or the SuperSpeed of Biorider, but he's still super strong and agile.
* LaserBlade: The Revolcane.
* MightyGlacier: Roborider grants RX intense durability and strength at the cost of moving super slow.
* SwissArmyHero: Can switch between his base form, Roborider form and Biorider form.
