Kamen Rider V3 (仮面ライダーＶ３,) is a fictional character from the Japanese tokusatsu television series Kamen Rider V3,
the second in the famous Kamen Rider franchise of tokusatsu programmes.
The primary protagonist of the series, Kamen Rider V3 is a
motorcycle-riding superhero modeled upon a dragonfly and armed with a
variety of powers. His name is a pun on Version Three as he is the 3rd
Kamen Rider. In the original series, he was portrayed by Hiroshi
Miyauchi.
V3 would make appearances in most succeeding Kamen Rider TV
series, until the final episodes of Kamen Rider BLACK RX. No past riders
would return until Kamen Rider Decade. In All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker, V3 is voiced by Hirofumi Tanaka. The original actor would return to voice him in Let's Go, Kamen Riders,
as he assists Eiji, Ankh, and the Den-Liner gang during their trip to
1973 and appears in the final battle when they return to the present. In
Movie Wars Megamax, he will return once more along the rest of the original seven Riders, again voiced by Tanaka.
Miyauchi HiroshiAsShiro Kazami
Shiro Kazami (風見 志郎, Kazami Shirō) was a 22-year-old college
student at Jōnan University with a major in biochemistry. But by chance,
he accidentally witnessed the brutal murder of a road worker by a
member of the secret terrorist society known only as Destron, which
appeared after the destruction of Gel-Shocker and continues its
predecessor's goal of world domination. To rid Destron of its witness,
and taking no chances, they sent Scissors Jaguar to murder the entire
Kazami family. Though he was forced to watch his family die before his
eyes, Shiro was saved from the same grisly fate by the interference of
Kamen Riders 1 and 2. Bent on revenge for his family's deaths, Shiro
pleas the Kamen Riders to make him into a cyborg just like them. The two
Kamen Riders refuse at first, but after Shiro was fatally wounded while
saving them, the two had no choice but to respect his wishes. As the
Double Riders performed the operation, the Destron outpost is attacked
and destroyed by Turtle Bazooka. The Double Riders were at a major
disadvantage until Shiro joined the battle, now known as Kamen Rider V3.
V3 went on to destroy his family's murderer while the Double Riders
fought Bazooka Turtle, who now had a nuclear bomb in his body with
intentions to destroy Toyko. The Double Riders, feeling that Kazami is a
worthy successor, take Turtle Bazooka
away from the city just before the bomb explodes, leaving V3 to protect
Japan on his own. Across the series, Shiro battled Destron's cyborg
monsters, eventually uncovering his newfound abilities while battling
the likes of Doktor G, Baron Fang, and Archbishop Wing. When faced with
Destron's strongest general, Marshal Armor, V3 was joined in his battle
by ex-Destron scientist Jōji Yūki/Riderman and the Double Riders. Eventually, V3 defeated the Destron Leader and departs on his motorcycle to parts unknown.
At V3's disposal are 26 Techinques and Weapons that were designed to
aid V3 in a variation of ways from enchancing his abilities to
destroying certain enemies.

Kamen Rider V3's first and foremost weapon - the Henshin belt "Double
Typhoon". Kazami Shiro transforms into V3 by performing the "Henshin", a
series of moves which activates the 2 revolving pistons of the Double
Typhoon, and then converts the accumulated wind energy to transform
Kazami into Kamen Rider V3.
Kamen Rider V3 is powered by the right "Kamen Rider No.1 Typhoon" and
the left "Kamen Rider No.2 Typhoon". This allows V3 to utilize both the
"Skill" of No.1 and the "Strength" of No.2
