There's also something so charming about his slightly grumpy demeanor combined with his genuine friendship with Amazon.

He's my personal favorite in terms of that trope so far. Dude just had so much charisma about him. Very impressive for an obviously rubber suit!

I do think the "violent" reputation the show has is seriously overblown, but I do find the specific style of violence in the show rather engrossing. The animalistic noises, the gushing fountains of hilariously foaming blood, the oddly satisfying decapitations. It's a bit magical.

Definitely one of the most memorable Showa Rider shows if nothing else!

Oh for sure. The show definitely had a specific style that it was aiming at and, while it didn't always deliver on it(especially in the later episodes), you can tell they were doing their best to be all in on the "Bestial" approach to things. Very cool.
