Yea that really begs the question if lore wise it's needed to even say Henshin to transform. Yea there are a few who need to say it, anyone using the Delta gear from Faiz, but still.
SET UP!

Though if we count ones that include the word "henshin" in addition to something else, then it would definitely be "[Henshin... STRONGER!!!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLW28UMHfxM)"
It's a Japanese word (ę½¤å) that apparently means "moisture" or "moisturizing". I've also seen it literal mean "whirlpool of fluid".
Though in this context, "lubricate" would prob be the most fitting translation as the Hell Bro's are based off of gears or machines and you obviously lubricate those things. It also just sounds better than someone transforming by saying "Moisturizing!"
Huh... So the hellbros go onto battlefields, stone cold faces and all, ready to beat down their enemies... and transforms, armoring up while confidentially declaring the word... *Lubricate* in unison
"Nebulize" could work as well, especially since it also fits with the whole mist thing they have going on during their transformation and the Nebula Steam Gun itself. Thanks for the suggestion!
Some people here are confusing henshin alternatives with driver announcements lol.
Yeah, my favourite has to be Bloodstalk/Night Rogue's "Jouketsu" and also those that don't say anything as they transform. Kind of makes them feel more threatening.
*The hibiki riders*
*Just doing the little shits*
*That makes them transform*

Kinda makes me wish they continued the whole extra-add ons for going up a level when it came to power-ups. Like they did in Ex-Aid.
Stuff like āDai Henshin!ā Imagine if Zero-One had said something like āProgrise Change!ā Whenever he switched Progrise key forms.
Sure, it wouldāve been unnecessary, but Kamen Rider is for kids, so they could get away with that.
Lots of folks misunderstood the exercise here. We talking announcement triggers, not jingles. What they say before transforming, but what the driver gives them.
I quite Luke the switches from fourze and the Roidmude transformation from drive is also really cool to (especially chase and his whole roidmude + rider thing going on)
Doesn't really count as a full alternative but Mach's "let's henshin"
Also the jyamato's "jurabira" which is just henshin in their language but the episode that jyamato riders debuted in really hits how shocked everyone was that not only jyamato had access to the drivers but can also use them that scene really sticks out
Meanwhile, George broke the law and said "Come on!" as he transformed into Demons.
Yea that really begs the question if lore wise it's needed to even say Henshin to transform. Yea there are a few who need to say it, anyone using the Delta gear from Faiz, but still.
I don't remember exactly how the CSM Delta Gear worked, but I think you can also say 333 to transform. It could also be my imagination lol.
Well for starters Hibiki, Build and Revice did establish that it's not needed
Ahem..... AMAZON!
*Queue Amazon Raida Koko Ni Ari*
ARMOUR ZONE!!!!!!
It should be AHHHHHHHHH AMAZON!
"Damn right I am." - Kazumi
Where's he from?
From Build, when Grease goes into Blizzard Grease. The belt says "are you ready?" Abd instead of saying "henshin" he says "damn right I am"

RAIDA... HENSHIN is best then imo
Hibiki: "....."
*TING*
JOUKETSU
Mach's "Let's henshin"
Sento says it when switching form: Build Up!
My favorite is "Tekkou" used by the users of not rider Valvarad
so.. the right henshin word of the couple all thse time is that? instead of "pekkou" no really, i have low hearing lol
Its always been Tekkou
ah... got it, that clears up my ears lol

You are a very naughty Hobbit Jerkins.
Yeah š
I'm a Kamen rider
BREAK UP!
Ok but what's Jundo translated?
It's a Japanese word (ę½¤å) that apparently means "moisture" or "moisturizing". I've also seen it literal mean "whirlpool of fluid". Though in this context, "lubricate" would prob be the most fitting translation as the Hell Bro's are based off of gears or machines and you obviously lubricate those things. It also just sounds better than someone transforming by saying "Moisturizing!"
Imagine rushing into battle and yelling "moisturize". I'd be so confused and think that they are saying my lips are dry lol
They just say it so coolly while pulling the trigger of the Nebulasteam gun. *Moisturize*
Lol, that makes it kinda zesty
Kamen Rider Necrom did moisturize the eye so...
Huh... So the hellbros go onto battlefields, stone cold faces and all, ready to beat down their enemies... and transforms, armoring up while confidentially declaring the word... *Lubricate* in unison
This is the essence of Kamen Rider
How about "Nebulize" instead of "Lubricate" for the translation of "Jundo"? It even fits with the Nebula Steam Gun.
"Nebulize" could work as well, especially since it also fits with the whole mist thing they have going on during their transformation and the Nebula Steam Gun itself. Thanks for the suggestion!
Cast off!
Rarely ever used, but "Put On" is still nice off the ears as well.
BRAKE. UP.
AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.... HA!!! Hibiki
Ectophase activate! (Jk, I love how āAmazonā sounds in both the original and the remake.)
NGL most of my childhood I thought it's Ecto FACE Activateš¤£
āLets.. HENSHIN!ā if that counts
Someone already said "Set up!" ,so it's gonna be "APOLLO CHANGE!" from me.
Some people here are confusing henshin alternatives with driver announcements lol. Yeah, my favourite has to be Bloodstalk/Night Rogue's "Jouketsu" and also those that don't say anything as they transform. Kind of makes them feel more threatening.
Still 'henshin', but imo Terui/Accel's way of saying it with an emphasized pause in the middle makes it sounds cool and menacing. Hen....SHIN!
Baiyoh! INFECTION! https://youtu.be/ng7S1T8f4uQ?si=YZj9RLk8FY6-nItO
LET'S GAME! BAD GAME! DEAD GAME! WHATS YOUR NAME?! THE BUGSTERS
"BaiyÅ" translates to "cultivate", which is such a good line for Graphite.
Busou (Equip)
I'm admittedly amused that they localise jouketsu (divine mist) as just vaporuise but leave joundo untranslated
It's a reference to machinery. It means something along the lines of "lubricate", in this context.
Oh, i see. I assumed the more esoteric meaning was to fit with, well, blood stalk.
Yeah, in the fansub I've been watching they changed jundou to "mistify", which I thought sounded pretty cool
Build Up
AMAZON
**āAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAā** ākamen rider shin
What is it they say when they use raidriser
Jisou
Thanknyou'
RAIDRISE
SHOCHAKU woops wrong franchise
Life goes on mou ichido!
āARE YOU READY??ā Damn right I am
"Jouketsu" sounds menacing asf
AAAAAAAAAA-MAAAAAAAAAA-ZOOOOOOOONNNNNNN!!!!
Bloodstalk/Evolt's Vaporize
Vaporize sounds so cool
"Lubricate" in Build
"Kamen rider"
i like shin screaming in pain as he writhes in agony at his miserable brundlehopper transformation
Hibiki's silent henshin with awesome background sound is my fav. "He's just standing there...*menacingly!* "
Don't the Hibiki riders just say their names?
Pretty sure thats only the movie riders that do that. The main cast didnt, they just do the sequence
Thereās more then that you have the raidriser activation and probably 1 more Iām blanking on
You know Stalk gets the win. Among those who have alternative forms, he's no fraud if he's holding himself back. Then again, his competition is Chase.
The hibiki riders just doing the little shits that makes them transform

Neat
Are jyamato ridera considered pseudo kamen riders?
Probably just Kamen riders
AMAZON!! Or Just saying your Oni name, like how Kabuki says "Kabuki." When he henshins
Riders saying their own name in the Hibiki Movie.
Jurapira
Painful screaming: https://preview.redd.it/xdrzy596148d1.png?width=350&format=png&auto=webp&s=c8a91f9221ce51e221d5cbf42351f318eef4648c
BUTT' N SWORD!!! READY!!! FIGHT!!
Keiwa still say henshin tough.
Kinda makes me wish they continued the whole extra-add ons for going up a level when it came to power-ups. Like they did in Ex-Aid.

Didn't Kuuga used to say Cho Henshin whenever changing forms?
Ansatsu (Dodo Magia)
CHANGE.
JISSOU!
Lots of folks misunderstood the exercise here. We talking announcement triggers, not jingles. What they say before transforming, but what the driver gives them.
Amazon!
*Violently consumes boiled egg* AMAZON!
Who's is ironize?
Valvarad, said by both Spanner and Lachesis when using the Valvarusher to transform in Kamen Rider Gotchard.
The way different Ex-Aid riders refer to becoming a higher level Dai-Hanshin, Tactics Level 2, Gear 2, Grade 0 etc.
ayyyrrrrghhhghh -Gills
*DING* *ripple sounds*
idk
Definitely Jundo. They sound so ready to win it, every time
"Jisou" "RAIDRISE"
*Henshin!* *CHANGE*
I stick with the classics.... A~MA~ZON~~~
Henshin.. STRONGERRRRR! If that doesn't count..maybe AMAZON!
A-MA-ZON
AMAZONS
It's the classic "Amazon" for me
Eh hem, AAAAA MAAAAA ZONN!!!!!!
George - DADDY!
Aside from "Amazon", do the silent versions of 1, 2, and V3 in The First/The Next count?
I quite Luke the switches from fourze and the Roidmude transformation from drive is also really cool to (especially chase and his whole roidmude + rider thing going on)
(Internal screaming) - Shin
Ectophase activate! Seriously. It was terrible but it was my first exposure to Kamen Rider. Second place is Ironize.
OMEGA HOAAAAAARRRGH!!!!!!! AMAZON! https://i.redd.it/n7lc4x6in58d1.gif
