History
Originally a normal man who, while argued with his father from time to time, did love and respect him to the point where he was called out for it by his (at the time) girlfriend. His life was turned upside down however, when he suffered horrible injuries and was altered into a Kaizorg. At first, Keisuke was horribly distraught by his cyborg body (like his predecessors) as well as (seemingly) being betrayed by his former girlfriend and suffered greatly. He suffered even more when the machine which held his father's personality and memories self destructed (when it realized that Keisuke had become too dependent to it) thus leaving Keisuke alone to fight his father's murderers.

Abilities
From a young age, Keisuke was trained in karate, judo and kendo by his father. As an adult, Keisuke still retains his skills which he improved throughout his series. He is also a great swimmer (which foreshadows his transformation into X) which was later shown throughout the series. As Kamen Rider X, Keisuke has shown great fencing, roping, staff and long poling skills with his Ridol. His greatest advantage is however, underwater. Since his body was recreated for deep sea underwater travel, he can not only breathe underwater, but also withstand an incredible amount of water pressure. He is also a pro at bike racing, and was even stated by Tachibana to have enough potential to surpass his predecessors with enough practice.

- Kamen Rider X
- For the first 27 episodes (and later in Kamen Rider Taisen), Keisuke's used the phrase "Set Up" and jumps into the air with his bodysuit manifesting as he removes the "Redizer" & "Perfecter" from the sides of his belt to form his helmet and then snap up the faceplate to complete the transformation. From 28 onward, Keisuke uses the phrase "Dai Henshin!" to transform while making a "X" sign with his arms after V3 gives him Mercury Circuit, which greatly powered up X. As Kamen Rider X, his power apparently comes from solar and wind energy.
- As a Kaizorg, Keisuke is a master of undersea combat. His exoskeleton is made of a special super alloy called Special Structure that allows him to survive and move freely in the heavy pressure of ten thousand meters below sea level along with an artificial lung to breathe underwater. Later on in the series Keisuke gets an upgrade which boosted his power three times fold meaning he can at least survive and move freely in thirty thousand meters below sea level.
