9A man who infiltrated Black Satan and volunteered to be converted into the Kikkaijin called Electric Human Stronger. Once the cyborg remodeling surgery was complete, he rebelled against Black Satan and renamed himself as Kamen Rider Stronger to avenge his friend who was killed by the organization.
10----
11* AntiHero: The first morally grey protagonist (barring Joji Yuki/Riderman) in Kamen Rider, at least prior to his CharacterDevelopment.
12* ArtificialLimbs: Has cybernetic arms that he covers up with gloves.
13* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: Quite literally, as Stronger has an "S" on his chest.
14* CursedWithAwesome: Has to cover his hands up with gloves lest he electrocute everything he touches.
15* {{Jerkass}}: A lot more rough around the edges than his predecessors, being openly rude at times. He also refused Tachibana’s help constantly, constantly bragged about how great he is and was openly condescending to his partner Tackle. CharacterDevelopment later made him into a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
16* TheHero: The main protagonist of the show and the one actively fighting against Black Satan.
17* InTheNameOfTheMoon: Always delivers a speech, typically from a high ledge, right before kicking a monster's ass.
18-->'''Stronger''': The heavens cry out! The earth cries out! The people cry out! They cry out for me to destroy evil! Listen up, evildoers...I am the warrior of justice, Kamen Rider Stronger!
19* LargeHam: I AM KAMEN RIDER STRONGER!
20* PersonOfMassDestruction: It's no surprise, since he can even create lightning storms in an instant.
21* PhlebotinumRebel: Invoked on purpose by Jo. He allowed Black Satan to turn him into Stronger so he could use his powers against them to avenge the death of his friend.
22* ShockAndAwe: He can do pretty much anything related to electric powers. Some of his most impressive feat are: freely use magnetism, swiftly generate over several trillion watts of electricity, and even phase through solid matter. Upon getting Charge-Up form, these powers were increased by 100-fold.

30----
31* ActionGirl / FauxActionGirl: While she can usually hold her own against a few {{Mook}}s, Tackle tends to get overwhelmed when dealing with the MonsterOfTheWeek.

62A mysterious organization created as a restoration of [[Series/KamenRider Shocker]]. They seek to take over the world by possessing people with their Satan Bugs.
63----
64* CreateYourOwnHero: Not only did they give Stronger his powers, but their murder of his friend was what inspired him to fight against them in the first place.
65* NebulousEvilOrganization: They're out to take over the world, and that's pretty much it.
66* ObviouslyEvil: With a name like "Black Satan," what else would you expect.

80* NoOneSeesTheBoss: As with all his previous incarnations, the Great Leader gives orders via a speaker system while his true form is hidden somewhere else.
81* ReturningBigBad: After sitting the [[Series/KamenRiderX previous]] [[Series/KamenRiderAmazon two]] series out, the Great Leader is back at it again with a new evil organization.

89A human criminal who joined Black Satan. His true form is a black cyclops.
90----
91* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:After his first death, he gets revived by Black Satan in a blood ritual as "Hundred-Eyed Titan".]]
92* BadassInANiceSuit: You can say he's a bastard, but you can't say he isn't well dressed.

97** CoDragons: Later on after he gets revived he shares the position with General Shadow.
98* HatesBeingTouched: Hates having his clothes ruffled, as a clumsy mook in the first episode learned the hard way.
99* TheHeavy: Since the Great Leader was pretty hands off this season, it is Titan who usually oversees the EvilPlan each episode and serves as Stronger's main enemy.
100* HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: According to supplementary materials, Titan is his real name.
101* OralFixation: He constantly chews a glass tube.
102* WeAreStrugglingTogether: With General Shadow after he gets called in, both wanting to be the one to defeat Stronger.

108!!!'''Voiced by:''' Mahito Tsujimura
109The overall NumberTwo to the Great Leader in Black Satan, he comes to Japan after [[spoiler:Hundred-Eyed Titan's death]] to deal with Stronger.
110----
111* CatsAreMean: Has a Lion motif and is a fearsome commander of the enemy faction.
112* TheDragon: The Great Leader's right-hand and Black Satan's strongest commander.
113* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: We never see what happens to him after Black Satan's destruction, though ''Manga/KamenRiderSpirits'' sees him resurface as one of the commanders of the Badan Empire.
114[[/folder]]
115
116!Delza Army
117[[folder:In General]]
118[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/delza_logo.jpg]]
119The organization that emerges after Black Satan's downfall. They are comprised of Majin from the Demon World. While Shadow is technically in charge, whoever defeats Stronger is the one who will become their leader.
120----
121* EnemyCivilWar: Oh yes. They fight each other just as much as they fight against Stronger.
122* {{Mooks}}: The Delza Army Corps, an army of black-suited FacelessGoons who wear masks of the symbol of the Majin they serve under.
123* OurDemonsAreDifferent: They're all cybernetic demons from the Demon World themed after various monsters.
124* PlayingCardMotifs: Each Majin of the Delza Army is assigned a different card in Shadow's deck.
125* VillainousRescue: Taken to extremes: Every time one of them has Stronger on the ropes, another member will show up and help Stronger escape, with them all wanting to be the one to finish off Stronger.
126[[/folder]]
127[[folder:General Shadow]]
128!!General Shadow
129!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HidekatsuShibata
130[[quoteright:240:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/general_shadow.jpg]]
131A Majin from the Demon World brought on by Black Satan to replace the fallen Mr. Titan. Later deserts Black Satan in favor of his own group, the Delza Army, which takes the reigns shortly after.
132----
133* BadassCape: Dons a white cape with a HighCollarOfDoom after becoming leader of Delza Army.
134* BadBoss: While in Black Satan, he payed little regard to the common mook and was nearly as bad as Titan in this regard.
135* BigBad: Once Black Satan is out of the way, General Shadow and his Delza Army emerge as the next foes of Stronger.
136* BloodKnight: Shadow loves the thrill of battle and he only joined Black Satan in the first place because he saw Stronger as a WorthyOpponent and wanted to challenge him.
137* BoyfriendBlockingDad: Parodied in a net movie made to promote the ''[[Film/OOODenOAllRidersLetsGoKamenRiders Let's Go Kamen Riders]]'' movie, where Shadow is revealed to be Hina Izumi's dad and is none too happy about Eiji dating her.
138* BreakoutVillain: Shadow is very popular and is probably one of the best known villains from the Showa era. There's a reason he shows up in almost every crossover.
139* DarkLordOnLifeSupport: [[AllThereInTheManual Supplementary materials]] reveal that the reason Shadow wears his white combat suit is that it keeps him alive from the injuries he suffered while in battle and from being persecuted by humans.
140* DivideAndConquer: A favorite strategy of Shadow's is to play two of his enemies against each other and, once one is destroyed, swoop in and deal with the one left standing. He does this with Black Satan and Stronger, helping Stronger find the Great Leader's lair because, as he notes, whichever one wins he'll be able to pick off. Later on he does this with Delza Army, keeping his subordinates focused on battling Stronger and competing against each other rather than challenging him.
141* TheDragon: Replaces Titan as the Great Leader's lieutenant in Black Satan's Japan branch.
142** DragonWithAnAgenda: However, he doesn't care about Black Satan's goals and openly states he's only with them so he can fight Stronger.
143** CoDragons: Later shares the position with Mr. Titan after he gets revived.
144** DragonTheirFeet: Deserts Black Satan later on and survives their defeat by Stronger. Which leads to...
145** DragonAscendant: With Black Satan out of the way, Shadow becomes the new [[BigBad primary threat]] to Stronger and is free to insert his own organization into the fray to challenge the latter.
146** DemotedToDragon: After the Majin First Team are all defeated, Shadow gets booted from his position as leader of Delza by Marshal Machine. Ironically, in {{crossover}}s, this is usually reversed with Machine served as one of Shadow's subordinates.
147* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: At the very least, he seemed to care for Snake Woman above all his other henchmen, and took a moment of silence after she died.
148* EvenEvilHasStandards: Is disdainful of Black Satan plans that use children as hostages and even goes out of his way to foil a few that go outside his moral boundaries.
149* FauxAffablyEvil: Even with his standards and just merely wanting to fight Stronger, [[FriendlyEnemy even sounding friendly to him at times]], he is still an evil villain that would manipulate others' schemes if not in his favor.
150* {{Foil}}: To Mr. Titan, his Co-Dragon. Titan is a modified human who's willing to use whatever tactics it takes to win, Shadow is a (literal) NobleDemon who abhors underhanded tactics and wants to fight Stronger fairly. Titan is fiercely loyal to Black Satan, Shadow is only with them to fight Stronger. Their outfits even contrast, with Titan [[EvilWearsBlack dresses mostly in black]] while Shadow [[VillainInAWhiteSuit wears nearly all white]].
151* TheHeavy: Takes this role from Titan halfway through, fighting Stronger as a member of Black Satan and later bringing Delza Army to the forefront after manipulating Black Satan's downfall.
152* NobleDemon: He's a literal demon but is not without a code of honor. He dislikes tactics that harm children and desires a fair fight with Stronger, with no dirty tricks.
153* PlayingCardMotifs: Is heavily associated with playing cards, which he uses as a method of attack as well as a way of receiving omens. His personal card is the King of Spades.
154* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Leaves Black Satan after the Great Leader replaces him with Dead Lion and forbids him from fighting Stronger, even though that was the only reason Shadow joined in the first place.
155* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Wants to be the one to defeat Stronger, to the point where he'll sabotage his fellow commander's plans so he can be able to.
156* WeAreStrugglingTogether: While in Black Satan, he competes with Titan to be the one to defeat Stronger. He later invokes this with the way Delza Army is organized, as he sets up things so the member of Delza who defeats Stronger will be leader.
157* WorthyOpponent: Regards Stronger as one.
158* WouldntHurtAChild: Refuses to harm children, and even goes out of his way to free some children Titan took as hostages. The other members of Delza don't seem to have this compunction however.

215* TheStarscream: Seeks to overthrow Shadow as leader of Delza.
216* WolfMan: It's his motif.
217* WouldHurtAChild: Would kill a child in fact. After his plan to overthrow Shadow with help from Baron Rock goes through, Wolf kidnaps children so he can sacrifice them for a ritual on the night of a full moon to gain more power.

240* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Half his body is covered in machinery and he's quite the soulless individual.
241* TheDragon: To [[spoiler:the Great Leader.]]
242* DragonAscendant: Displaces General Shadow as leader of Delza after his arrival, though it later becomes [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] when it's revealed that Machine is TheDragon to somebody else.
243* SealedEvilInACan: Introduced being unearthed from an Egyptian sarcophagus by a pair of hapless thieves.
244* TheStarscream: With the deaths of the entire Delza Majin First Team, Machine demands Shadow's resignation so he can take his place as leader of Delza. Shadow concedes without issue, though for the most part does his own thing and doesn't really listen to Machine.
245* TheSociopath: Not only do his schemes involve endangering numerous innocents, he [[LackOfEmpathy cares very little of others]] ranging from said innocents to forcing General Shadow to stage a final showdown against Stronger for foiling his scheme, not even caring that said general died and when Magnet and Knight asked for his help, he dismissed them as cowards for doing so.

268The true leader of Delza Army and the one behind all the past organizations faced by the Kamen Riders. He used Marshal Machine to take control of Delza from General Shadow and reveals himself to the seven Kamen Riders once they all gather. His initial form is a giant rock golem which houses his true form, an alien brain.
269----
270* AmbiguousSituation: While Geddon was noted as an organization the Great Leader was behind, no mention is made of the Garanda Empire - whose ruler also claimed to be behind Geddon - leaving the Great Leader's relation with them ambiguous.

277* TakingYouWithMe: Self-destructs in a final attempt to kill the Kamen Riders. It fails.
278* UncertainDoom: Though he self-destructs, the last words of the Great Leader imply he may have returned to space rather than died.
