For those without Twitter these days, I have compiled screenshots of this thread someone has put together about additional Hongo lore that doesn't appear in the show. I also wanted to put it together for archival purposes since I don't trust Twitter to not die out any day now. (the text for the tweets has also been put in the image decsriptions). Also sorry OP if you have a tumblr and I didn't know, this one felt like I had to archive it.

August 15th, 1948 

Happy 75th Birthday to Takeshi Hongo, specifically the original 1971 TV series incarnation of Kamen Rider!

Here's a thread about the character's background settings that not appeared in the TV show but mentioned in the official books.
Takeshi Hongo was born in Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, to a father, Isao, a shipbuilding engineer, and a mother, Hiroko, a music teacher. He grew up in an ordinary family. However, when he was 17, his father was killed in an accident, and his mother died of illness when he was 20.
When he was at a loss, he decided to become an auto racer, thanks to the encouragement of Tobei Tachibana, who was kind to him.
Hongo and Ichimonji are already friends even before Hongo got remodeled into Kamen Rider. In the October 1972 issue of TV Magazine, it was stated that "they were not friends from the beginning, but became friends after Hongo helped Ichimonji."
Later in the February 1973 issue of TV Magazine, it was changed to "they met when Ichimonji came to photograph Hongo competing in an auto race for an interview."
As for Hongo's relationship, it is stated that "he has many female friends, but because he is a modified human being, he never falls in love."
In a short story written by producer Toru Hirayama in later years, the connection with other characters is complemented in more detail, here's the first one:

Hongo and Ichimonji met at the Scottish Six Days Trial.
Hongo, Ichimonji, Kazami, and Tachibana, plus Taki before he was recruited by the FBI, met each other at the Paris-Dakar Rally and talked to each other without knowing the fate that awaited them later.
The relationship between Hongo & Ruriko after her departure to Europe is brought to a close when he entrusts her future to Karl, a young man from Vienna whom Ruriko had looked up to like an older brother. Hongo, despite knowing Ruriko's feelings, shakes them off to fight Shocker.
Here are some of Hongo's character trivias written on the bonus cards from Kamen Rider Snacks, including the numbers; 

Although he has no parents, he never felt lonely, and as a child he was a cheerful, honest, and animal-loving boy. That is why he majored in biology (No. 287)
He usually wakes up at 5:00 a.m. to practice his special moves, goes out to the Rider headquarters at 9:00 a.m., and if nothing happens, trains again at 7:00 p.m. (No.288)
He was an active boxer during his high school and college years (No.304)
Tobei is well acquainted with Hongo's boyhood. According to him, as a boy he was alone without his parents, but he loved animals and was obsessed with collecting insects (No.309)
He has a secret base that Tobei built for him underground in a park in Tokyo. There are various instruments, and he trains there and plays guitar when he's lonely (No.396)
He has been good at science and arithmetic since elementary school, and his grades are in the top 5 in his class (he is not a skinny student). He loves sports and was the class organizer (No.400)
He wants to return to being a normal human being, but he endures his grief in order to defeat Gel-Shocker (No. 405)
He values human life and does not really want to kill monsters (No.485)
By assuming a transformation pose, he can transform by turning on switches on both shoulders (the first switch is on his right shoulder and the second switch is on his left shoulder) (No.486)
As a boy, he once wet the bed and his mother got angry and spanked him. His mother already passed away, and he carries a pendant on his skin as a memento of her passing. He talks happily about his boyhood (No.500)
And that's all.

Rage, Grief & Other Quiet Explosions

(Emotional meltdowns that don’t look like meltdowns, but absolutely are)

 The “Smiling Too Much” Grief Your character’s entire world is on fire, and they’re asking if anyone wants more wine. That’s not denial, it’s an effort to hold the damn pieces together. Smile like a glue gun. Watch them crack.

The “Not Crying At the Funeral” Breakdown They don't shed a tear. They organize everything. Perfect speech. Perfect outfit. But a week later, they scream into the laundry basket over a missing sock. That’s the moment. That’s the eulogy.

 The “Silent Dinner Table” Fight No yelling. No slamming doors. Just chewing. Clinking silverware. The kind of silence that tastes like metal. Let the reader feel the air shrink.

 The “Polite but Dead Inside” Apology They say “Sorry” because it’s expected, not because they’re ready. Their voice doesn’t crack. Their eyes don’t meet yours. This isn’t healing. This is a peace treaty with no peace.

The “I Don’t Want to Talk About It” Detour The one where they ask about your day mid-sob. Redirect. Deflect. “Let’s not talk about me.” That’s rage choked by shame. Write it like it’s shoving itself into a smaller box.

 The “Obsessively Productive” Meltdown New projects. New hobbies. Suddenly they’re running marathons, baking sourdough, fixing the garage door. Because if they sit still for one second, they’ll break. Keep the camera on them when they finally sit.

The “Unsent Letters” Grief They write it all down. Every damn emotion. Then burn it. Or delete it. Or hide it in a shoebox under their bed. It’s not for closure. It’s to let the ghosts know they were seen.

The “I’m Fine” That Echoes Delivered too fast. Too sharp. You could bounce a quarter off it. “I’m fine” isn’t fine. It’s the dam cracking. Listen to the echo. Let another character hear the hollowness.

The “Hyper-Logical Rant” Rage They argue with spreadsheets. With perfect bullet points. Cold rage—like ice, not fire. “I’m not mad, I’m just saying…” But that’s a lie. They’re volcanic under that clipboard.

 The “Laughing in the Middle of the Breakdown” Moment That bitter, hysterical laugh. The kind that sounds more like sobbing with teeth. Let it come at the worst time. Let it shock even them. That’s emotion refusing to stay boxed in.

"Now behold! Behold as I unmask your...beloved...hero...?" The villain's voice trailed off as he tore open said hero's crippled mech suit on live TV, only to reveal something quite...unexpected.
