Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (Video Version, Africa Volume) M Menu
Details of this creation : (Director Mamoru Hamatsu explains it like this.) The person that the Troopers are fighting is not a demon, nor is it evil. In truth, the one they're fighting is the armor itself. Or, maybe, as viewed by some, they're fighting their very self. The five heroes begin to realize that their passion for unforgivable violence is, in fact, the true nature of the Kikoutei armor. This level of violence was nurtured over many years and was caused by a conflict between the White and Black Kikoutei armors. This desire for conflict isn't their choice or their own consciousness.
Through the hardships of passion, enlightenment, and self-doubt, the camaraderie of the Samurai Troopers begins to rise again.
Mukara, a young warrior from an African clan, and Naria, a beautiful young woman, will appear as guest stars in the four part film to be produced this time.
The music is a key element of the film.
〜 Before and After〜
D - 1 # 1 - C14
A beautiful beach during summer. There are colorful parasols, and lots of people to be seen.

Better still, if African essence is included. ....1,00"
D - 10 # 1 - C218
Mukara's boomerang.
Inorganic cold (Made of mineral / black crystal) intro = 5 (pause), then boomerang suddenly appears! The power is speedy, but not light. Go! It has enough energy to destroy a building. ...20
I want to add new music to the transformation of the five heroes.
I want the attack patterns of the five heroes to have more individuality.
(1) I want each of the attack pattersn of the five heroes to have more individuality.
(2) I want them to have different melodies.
(3) For the "sound", I want to move away from the image of antiquity and make it more modern.
D - 11 - 1
Ryou's transformation. [Using motifs from Japan. A theme.].............. .40
D - 11 - 2. 3. 4. 5.

Feel the killing power. Ear-splitting, high-frequency tension. ............ .30"
D - 16 # 1 - C316

Ending of Crisis without rhythm. (Because of the African rhythm mentioned below, it could have a rhythm section here, boosting the bass 10)... 50"
D - 18 # 2 - C94
The silhouette. Mukara stands completely still as the shadows drift by. A fearless, controlled warrior. Sharp, cold-blooded, but good-looking. ...40

Ryou's question. "This armor could be..."
The intense emotions gradually subsided, and I went to # 3 - P4 Seiji. And then he became calm ..........1,15
After D - 24 # 4 - P24D23, you go from a feeling of calm into a feeling of enlightenment, which transcends reality. It goes to the divine state of forgiveness and love.
There is nothing to be afraid of anymore. ............................................1,30"
D - 25 # 3 - P0

Nasutei, Jun, and the others are in a state of grief. I've been waiting for this moment to come for a long time.
It's not the theme version, but it's the one that makes the female fans, who are waiting for this movie, want to cry.
D - 29 # 4 - ?
For Shin, even if it resulted in the other Troopers receiving a near-death blow, Shin rejected the upcoming battle from the beginning. What was in his heart?

D - 30 # 4 - P5
Shin's meditation. I want the hypnotic warmth to give the other four a sense of harmony. A peace and harmony that they'd lost. ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯40
D - 31 # 4 - P6
The story of the black Kikoutei armor. In the past, Kaosu explained about the secret of the armor.
