Portrait of Makoto Niijima in Metaverse outfit. The long scarf, Makoto's dark two-toned suit and her spiked protection gear are generally understood as references to the Kamen Rider franchise, a Japanese superheroes' series that started in the early 1970's. The original series spearheaded a surge in Japanese action-hero productions in TV, film, and manga, while also popularizing the much-copied 'henshin sequence': a move in which the hero takes on a ritualistic pose during a fight scene, shouts the keyword 'henshin', and transforms into his or her superhero form.
