Ride Kamens: The Stage Unit Names

These names are the unit/pairing names for the song 君がいるから (Kimi ga iru kara - translates to Because I have you). Different pairs performed depending on the show, but three pairs repeated (with different unit names each time):
  • Mikami Saigo & Araki Kyosuke (January 13 at 1 PM and January 30 at 6:30 PM)
  • Fukami Shion and Gamo Jigen (January 18 at 6 PM and February 1 at 1 PM)
  • Agata Matsunosuke and Takato Uryu (January 19 at 1 PM and January 31 at 2 PM)
Thank you to alumi_hal for compiling all the unit names in Japanese! (@alumi_hal どうもありがとうございます!) I used google translate to translate the text and then asked ysterrd for help on names and explanations that didn’t make sense when put through google translate. I (27twinsister) didn’t come up with these names, the Ride Kamens: The Stage characters/cast did, and ysterrd gave his own interpretation/localizations for a few.

*thanks ysterrd
**these performances were also streamed
***this was written in katakana so it's clearly "Mr. Training" but in English that doesn't sound like you're referring to 2 people and you can't just add -s to make it plural.
