Sokichi's mantra was to keep the client safe at all costs. He also gave his old friend Fumine refuge after she was forced to leave her Family and become Shroud. He eventually would confront Dopants during the Melissa case. Initially making it a policy of his to never use Gaia Memories even faced with Dopants, a guilt-ridden Sokichi eventually uses the special Gaia Memory and Memory Driver belt that was made by Shroud to deal with Museum, enabling him to become Kamen Rider Skull to combat the Spider Dopant, revealed to be his partner, Seichiro Matsui. This policy has since then changed into using his driver and memory only when left with no other favorable options. Since the incident, Sokichi took the motto "Now, count up your sins!" to heart because he saw himself to be unable to realize his ex-partner's madness and stop it before the city suffers as a result. Furthermore, Sokichi's Spider Bomb did not fade after the memory's destruction and he decided to distance himself from Akiko to ensure her safety. Since then, Sokichi became involved in investigating cases involving Dopants that the police force could not handle, including the armored car robberies performed by the "Beastman". Eventually taking on Shotaro Hidari as his protégé, Sokichi agrees to help Shroud stop Museum by infiltrating a research facility known as the Gaia Tower with Shotaro in order to find the young man at its center. After fighting several Masquerade Dopants and the Taboo Dopant, he and Shotaro find the young man as Sokichi offers him freedom to find atonement for his part in the creation of the Gaia Memories, naming him Philip after his favorite fictional character Philip Marlowe. After Sokichi frees Philip from the Gaia Tower and begins to take both him and Shotaro out of the building, he was shot by several armed guards. As he dies, he gives his white fedora to Shotaro and asks for Shotaro to become a man worthy of wearing it. It was after the Gaia Tower fell into ruins that Shotaro and Philip, spurred by his advice to continue in his place, learn that Sokichi's body is nowhere to be found. Sokichi's death had also caused Shotaro great guilt, as he found it his fault that his mentor had to die. Even in death, Sokichi often inspires Shotaro and Philip within their memories and through his words. Kamen Rider Double has been mentioned to "contain Sokichi Narumi's will". In ''Begins Night'', Sokichi Narumi and Kamen Rider Skull are among the identities taken by the Dummy Dopant while pretending to be the Death Dopant in a scheme to assume the identities of Futo's upper class members, using Sokichi's form to drive Shotaro off from the case before he realizes the truth. However, Shotaro finally overcomes this, and Kamen Rider Double ultimately defeats the imposter Kamen Rider Skull. After the case is concluded in ''Movie War 2010'', Tsukasa Kadoya uses a Kamen Rider Skull card he has acquired to summon an iteration of Sokichi Narumi from an alternate dimension, giving Shotaro closure. This Sokichi Narumi does not seem to know Shotaro but recognizes the very thing that the real Sokichi wanted of Shotaro: for Shotaro to become a true detective. In ''Kamen Rider W Forever: A to Z/The Gaia Memories of Fate'', in spirit, Kamen Rider Skull gives Shotaro advice on Philip's feelings, as well as his Lost Driver before fading away as he takes his leave, enabling Shotaro to transform into Kamen Rider Joker.〔 The Skull Memory is one of the 26 T2 Gaia Memories in the film.〔''Figure Oh'', No. 150〕 In this film, Koji Kikkawa does not make an appearance. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kamen Rider Skull」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
