Description
The character known as Ikadevil appears in the 2011 film Kamen Rider OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders as a member of the villainous organization Shocker. This iteration of the character is rooted in the franchise's history, as Ikadevil is the monstrous transformed state of Doctor Shinigami, a high-ranking commander and leading scientist within Shocker who possesses extensive knowledge of both science and mysticism.
In the narrative of the film, a change in the past caused by the character Ankh leads to a drastically altered timeline in which Shocker has successfully conquered the world. Within this dystopian present, Shocker has grown to encompass not only its original forces but also members from other villainous groups that would have existed separately in the original timeline, creating a massive alliance. Ikadevil functions as one of the many high-ranking monsters serving this expanded and victorious Shocker regime.
Ikadevil's personality and motivations are consistent with those of Doctor Shinigami, who is characterized by a cold and calculating demeanor. Driven by a goal to defeat the Kamen Riders and aid Shocker in ruling the world, his loyalty lies firmly with the organization's Great Leader. In the altered reality of the film, he stands as an obstacle to the united Kamen Riders who gather to restore the original timeline.
Regarding his development and role in the film's climax, Ikadevil is ultimately confronted by the heroes. Along with two other monsters, Ganikomol and Garagaranda, he is destroyed in battle by the combined power of Kamen Rider Den-O Climax Form and Kamen Rider New Den-O. This defeat is part of the riders' successful effort to weaken Shocker's hold on the world and set the timeline right.
In terms of abilities, Ikadevil is a humanoid squid monster. His primary combat capabilities stem from his multiple tentacles, which he can stretch and manipulate as powerful whips to strike his opponents. He is also capable of expelling a cloud of ink or black smoke from his mouth, which can be used to obscure vision and confuse enemies. In other appearances, his head was shown to contain a meteor guidance device, though this specific ability is not highlighted in his role within this particular anniversary film.
