Phantom (Kamen Rider)

Phantoms (ファントム Fantomu) are the fictional antagonists that appear in the 2012-2013 Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider Wizard. Each Phantom has a form based on a monster from various mythologies, able to assume a human form modeled after their original human selves.

Background

Phantoms are born whenever humans with magic potential, known as Gates (ゲート Gēto), give in to despair. From there, the created Phantom proceeds to tear down the host's Underworld (精神世界<アンダーワールド> Andāwārudo), the subconscious of the human, before destroying the host itself. Able to assume its host's form, yet lacking few human aspects like sense of taste, a Phantom sometimes would fully assume its original self's identity until called to seek out a Gate and place that human deep in despair to repeat the cycle. A Kamen Rider can stop the emergence of Phantoms by using an Engage Wizard Ring to enter a Gate's underworld when it is being torn apart, and prevent Phantoms from destroying the host's Underworld by destroying the Phantoms from within, with the said host made a normal human afterwards. Their ultimate goal is gather enough numbers so their leader Wiseman can re-enact an unknown ritual known only as "The Sabbath". But in reality, the Phantoms are only a by-product of the Sabbath which is actually the siphoning of magical energies from Gates to infuse into a Philosopher's Stone.

There are also the Ghouls (グール Gūru), familiars that serve as the Phantoms' foot soldiers. Ghouls are created from magical stones, and while not as strong as the Phantoms, they are still strong enough to withstand conventional small arms gunfire.^[1]

Later, after being spotted by Koyomi, Siren starts attacking and Haruto becomes Kamen Rider Wizard to stop her but she is too strong for him, not even when as Flame Dragon. She then escapes and since Haruto realizes that Kumagai is a Gate, he must protect him. Meanwhile, she arrives at Wajima's shop asking about the toy plane and demanding the owner of it, which made him feel uncomfortable and put in a trance when Shunpei asked him about her. Later, Haruto, Kumagai and Shunpei at the house of Tamotsu Sakai (酒井 保 Sakai Tamotsu), a young man who is the owner of the toy and Siren got there before them, holding it and about to destroy it before Haruto becomes Kamen Rider Wizard to fight her again, and Green Griffon knocking it away in time.

He is unsure of whether to ignore or it or let go of Siren, so that Kumagai will fall into despair and possibly hold back his inner Phantom. He releases her but Shunpei happens to be there to stop her. Then, Kumagai himself destroys the toy plane, much to everyone's shock, having only done it because it was the source of these problems, particularly regarding his son's death and the broken relationship between Sho and Tamotsu.
