Imagin (イマジン, Imajin, from "imagine") are a fictional race that are the antagonists in the Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider Den-O. They are creatures that emerge from the distant future, arriving in the year 2007 to find weak-hearted humans based on Kai's research on that very person and through them go back in time to kill the one whose interference would wipe them out and destroy their future, revealed to be Airi. Imagin possess humans upon forging a contract, fashioning a physical form by searching through the host's memory for figures found in folklore and myths. The hosts, recognized by the sands of time spilling from their bodies, are offered a single wish by the Imagin. In exchange, the Imagin is able to dive into the most treasured moment of the person's past. As displayed, however, the host must remember making the contract for the Imagin to successfully travel to the past. Additionally, due to the greatly delicate nature of the contract, if the contract holder forgets or dies before the contract is completed, the Imagin bound to him or her would fade out of existence. Opening the human like a door, a portal is revealed that leads to the appropriate time, severing their ties to the human in the process. From there, the Imagin takes over a host's body or simply manifests itself in its physical form and begins causing massive chaos. In turn, due to the laws of time, everything and everyone destroyed in the past no longer exists in the present. However, as Ryotaro learned in time, the restoration of these things rely on just being remembered.

Singularity Points

A "Singularity Point" (特異点, Tokuiten) in Kamen Rider Den-O is a human who has the ability to exist outside of time itself, and be unaffected by changes in their own past. This ability also allows them to suppress an Imagin's will when it takes over their body and is not tempted by the free wish an Imagin can grant. Because of this, the Imagin contracted to Singularity Points are usually unable to take a physical form in the present time, and directly possess their Singularity Point, instead. They usually reside within time itself and when they are not possessing their Singularity Point, they stay on some sort of Train of Time, such as the DenLiner or the ZeroLiner. The Singularity Points also have the ability to become Kamen Riders, and the Imagin that possess them lend their abilities in combat when called upon. In other instances, the Imagin use their Singularity Point's body as they wish when the Singularity Point loses consciousness. As long as the Singularity Point is conscious, he can expel the Imagin from his body and send it back to the Train of Time that he uses as a Kamen Rider. In all cases of Imagin possession, the Singularity Point's eyes change color to that of the Imagin, the hair will grow or change in style, and a streak of hair will also change color to that of the Imagin. Masaru Honjō, Kintaros' original contractor, is the only other human who has been possessed by an Imagin and fit these criteria under these contexts, but is not a Kamen Rider. This may be due to the wish he asked of Kintaros.

Den-O's Imagin

The Rider Pass that Ryotaro Nogami uses to become Kamen Rider Den-O can summon at least four Imagin. Each of these Imagin gives Den-O their power when they are called upon with each form suiting to their fighting style. These Imagin are collectively known as the Tarōs (タロウズ, Tarōzu) due to their namesakes. When not possessing Ryotaro, the Tarōs spend their time in the DenLiner's dining car. However, they are also able to enter physical time and space by possessing vacant forms, such as full-body costumes, although this leaves them physically unstable. Due to the new timeline, the Tarōs start to lose sync with Ryotaro and are unable to possess him when he travels to the past. To continue to assist him, they create the DenKamen Sword, which allows him to channel their power without direct possession. Though Ryotaro is curious of these recent events, the four are reluctant to explain that it was a prelude to their kind being erased from time/space itself as the the result of their battle with the evil Imagin. For a short time, Den-O had a fifth Imagin, Sieg.

Momotaros

Momotaros (Naomi is in the background) on the DenLiner

Momotaros (モモタロス, Momotarosu) is the first Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the Sword Form transformation. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a sword named the Momotarosword (モモタロスォード, Momotaroswōdo). Momotaros blames Ryotaro for his Oni-like form, though it matches his personality, best described as hot blooded, arrogant, and comedic, serving as a foil to Ryotaro's own shy and cowardly personality. In fact, Momotaros is more interested in fighting than carrying out the Imagin's goal. Unfortunately, he is constantly beaten by Hana when he gets Ryotaro into trouble. When he possesses Ryotaro, declaring the words "I have arrived!" (俺、参上!, Ore, sanjō!) Momotaros's own personality takes over, giving Ryotaro power, confidence, and a bit of his eagerness for a good fight. His eagerness is shown in battle, where he always declares the words, "I am, from the start (to the finish), at the climax!" (俺は最初から(最後まで)クライマックスだぜ!, Ore wa saisho kara (saigo made) kuraimakkusu da ze!). Momotaros is also somewhat selfish, initially fighting alongside Ryotaro in order to ensure his own survival. Though he unknowingly places Ryotaro in unneeded danger to suit his fancy, Momotaros eventually learns to respect him. Though he demands respect, Momotaros is usually put in his place by Hana and her powerful punches. He also does not know how to swim, has a narcotic reaction to red peppers, and seems to be afraid of dogs. While he acts hostile and demeaning to the other Tarōs, he does care about them, proven by hiding his anguish while they are slowly disappearing due to the events of the Climax Scene. Momotaros is the base for Den-O's Climax Form, as he has control of the head and torso and can control the other sections that the other Tarōs usually have primary control of if need be. However, due to the same newly-formed railway that turned Hana to a child, Momotaros's synch with Ryotaro is negated. However, his power is now accessed in the DenKamen Sword's Momo-Sword Mode. Since then, Momotaros makes it his task to train Ryotaro to fight on his own, being evasive on his reasons for it. But once Ryotaro learns the truth, both he and Momotaros have a falling out. Momotaros, enraged at Ryotaro for his decision to abandon the Tarōs, fights Den-O Plat Form to try and bring Ryotaro back to his senses. After Ryotaro divulges his reasons, Momotaros apologizes to him for being evasive about the recent events and the two went on to destroy the Armadillo Imagin with the other Tarōs at their side. On his own, Momotaros can perform his style of Den-O's Extreme Slash, refered as "My Hissatsu Attack, Momotaros Version" (俺の必殺技モモタロスバージョン, Ore no hissatsu waza Momotarosu Bājon).

When insulting another Imagin, he usually calls them a "X-Jerk" (X野郎, X-yarō), while referring to Hana as "Stinky Flower Girl" (ハナクソ女, Hanakuso On'na). He usually refers to Urataros as "Turtle" (カメ, Kame), "Turtle-Boy" (カメ公, Kame-kō), or "Turtle-Jerk" (カメ野郎, Kame-yarō) and Kintaros as "Bear" (クマ, Kuma), "Bear-Boy" (クマ公, Kuma-kō), "Bear-Jerk" (クマ野郎, Kuma-yarō). He calls the younger Ryutaros a "Brat" (小僧、ガキ, Kozō, Gaki) and a "Snot-nosed Brat" (ハナタレ小僧, Hanatare Kozō). He calls Deneb "Tubby" (オデブ, Odebu). He also puts emphasis on his final blow attacks, saying "My Hissatsu Attack, Part X" (俺の必殺技パートX, Ore no hissatsu waza pāto X) while possessing Ryotaro in Den-O Sword Form, with a Part 1, 2, 2’ (Two-Dash), 3, and 5 (Ryotaro tells Momotaros that he skipped 4, but he considers not using 4 "cool", even counting from 1-10 while skipping 4). His form is based on the legend of Momotarō, the Peach Boy, who fought the red Oni that Momotaros resembles.

Urataros

File:Vlcsnap-582120.png
Urataros on the DenLiner

Urataros (ウラタロス, Uratarosu) is the second Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, allowing transformation into Den-O Rod Form. The form given to him by Ryotaro is turtle-like in appearance, with his weapon being the Uratarod (ウラタロッド, Urataroddo), a rod with hexagonal blades at each end. Furthermore, Urataros was well-aware of Ryotaro being a Singularity Point, making his contract to him on purpose—though he says it is to evade the loneliness of being outside time, Hana later debunks this entirely. When he possesses Ryotaro, he usually states the words, "May I string you along?" (僕に釣られてみる?, Boku ni tsuraretemiru?). He is also aware of the evil Imagin planning to destroy time, but simply does not want to commit it. Despite his cool exterior, there's indication that he's somewhat of a coward and lies just for self preservation. Urataros is a casanova with a very convincing personality, owning the ability to convince almost anyone by speaking to them, stating that each one his words contains a hundred hooks, a thousand fabrications, and ten thousand lies. It's due to this philosophy that no one but Ryotaro trusts him. At first, he and Momotaros fight each other due to clashing personalities, creating havoc upon the DenLiner and Ryotaro's body until the Owner has Ryotaro choose to discard Urataros or share his Rider Pass with him. Urataros is shocked when Ryotaro chooses to keep him, with Ryotaro saying that he had a good heart, deep down on the inside feeling that even though lying is wrong, if one lies for another, it indicates they have a good heart. Urataros, however, later says that he lies simply for the sake of lying ("One lie is more interesting than a thousand truths"), and seems quite irritated that Ryotaro is "trivializing his lies." While Momotaros gets Ryotaro in trouble through reckless methods, Urataros puts Ryotaro in conflicting situations when he goes around wooing multiple women. As part of being a liar and a convincer, Urataros is the best speaker of the Taros, and has possessed Ryotaro simply to get information out of someone, or to talk his way out of something (when Ryotaro is arrested for kidnapping, Urataros is able to get him exonerated, apparently cramping the hand of the stenographer in the process). Despite these negative traits however, he does show genuine concern for Ryotaro's well being, as well as becoming enraged due to the multiple deaths caused by the Gigandeath created from the Kraken Imagin in the past. During the events of Kamen Rider Den-O: I'm Born!, Urataros possesses the Ryotaro that Yuto brought to the Mesozoic for the Climax Scene. This results in Urataros fading from existence were it not for Ryotaro's feelings condensing his remains into the Keitaros, restoring him to normal while allowing Urataros to form the right shoulder armor of Den-O's Climax Form until his synch with Ryotaro was negated. However, his power is now accessed in the DenKamen Sword's Ura-Rod Mode. On his own, Urataros can perform Rod Form's finisher, Solid Attack, though his variation is shown as a sliding kick to the target rather than a flying side sick.

He usually refers to Momotaros as "Sempai" (先輩, Senpai) and Kintaros as either "Bear" (クマ, Kuma) or "Kin-chan" (キンちゃん, Kin-chan) respectively. His form is based on the legend of Urashima Tarō, who rescued a sea turtle and was granted a visit to the Ryūgū-jō.

Kintaros

File:Kintaros2.jpg
Kintaros on the DenLiner

Kintaros (キンタロス, Kintarosu) is the third Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the Ax Form transformation. He is vaguely modeled after a bear and has a Sumo wrestler-like personality. He also has a habit of deep sleeping (akin to hibernation) until the mere mentioning of any word that sounds remotely similar to the Japanese word for "to cry" (泣く, naku) often provokes Kintaros out of his slumber to possess Ryotaro in an instant. He speaks in a the dialect of Kansai-ben, saying, "My strength will bring you to tears. Wipe your tears off with this" (俺の強さに、お前が泣いた。涙はこれで拭いとけ, Ore no tsuyosa ni, omae ga naita. Namida wa kore de fuitoke), whenever he possesses Ryotaro, taking out a handkerchief for whoever wants to wipe their tears off with. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a giant axe named the Kintaros Ax (キンタロスアックス, Kintarosu Akkusu). He has a habit of popping his neck every time he begins and ends a battle. Kintaros is a strong Imagin who constantly seeks opponents stronger than him. Unfortunately, he is sometimes unable to control his own strength resulting in accidentally destroying things, which he attempts to fix afterwards. At first, he is dependent on a retired karateka named Masaru Honjō, who gave him his "bearish" look, as he attempted to master karate so Masaru could achieve the "ultimate karate." Kintaros wants to teach Masaru the ultimate karate, in order to let him settle things with Kikuchi. Kintaros has no intention of disturbing the time stream, and only wants to protect Masaru's life. Kintaros cares deeply about Masaru, and almost gave his life to protect him from the Rhino Imagin. Seeing the good side of Kintaros, Ryotaro allows Kintaros to enter him, to the shock of both Momotaros and Urataros. Kintaros is also almost thrown out of the DenLiner for disrupting the flow of time, but is allowed to stay as the change in the past negated the present events that led to his banishment. During the events of Kamen Rider Den-O: I'm Born!, Kintaros possesses the Ryotaro that Yuto brought to the Edo era to aid in the Climax Scene. But this results in him fading from existence were it not for Ryotaro's feelings condensing his remains into the Keitaros, restoring him to normal while allowing Kintaros to form the left shoulder armor of Den-O's Climax Form until his synch with Ryotaro was negated. However, his power is now accessed in the DenKamen Sword's Kin-Ax Mode. On his own, Kintaros can perform Dynamic Chop. However, it is unknown if Kintaros can perform it with a jump, as he first used it off the stairs.

When the Imagin Army invades both the past and the present, Kintaros saves Den-O Liner Form from the overwhelming forces as he gives him a model of Kintarō he made to grant Ryotaro's new years wish, which was for the Tarōs Imagin to still fight with him to the end without truly disappearing. With his contract fulfilled, Kintaros destroys the first Imagin wave as Den-O Ax Form before holding his own against the following waves without the Den-O Belt while Ryotaro escapes back to the present to save Airi, leaving Kintaros in June 6 2000.

He usually refers to Momotaros as "Peach" (桃の字, Momo no Ji, mispronouncing his name as "Momonga" (モモンガ, Momonga, Japanese Dwarf Flying Squirrel), "Momohiki" (モモヒキ, Momohiki, Long Underpants)) and refers to Urataros as "Turtle" (亀の字, Kame no Ji). His form is based on the legend of Kintarō, the Golden Boy, who wielded an axe, had immense strength, and sumo wrestled bears.

Ryutaros

File:Ryutaros.jpg
Ryutaros on the DenLiner

Ryutaros (リュウタロス, Ryūtarosu) is the fourth Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the transformation into Den-O Gun Form. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a shotgun named the Ryuvolver (リュウボルバー, Ryūborubā). Though he is the last Imagin to appear, Ryutaros initially had tried to possess Ryotaro the moment that Urataros did, and simply hides himself from the others. Ryutaros reveals himself in his form when he is attracted by Naomi's coffee inside the DenLiner. Ryutaros is most childish in personality with a love for drawing and animals. Ryutaros also appears to enjoy break dancing, to the point to that it is incorporated into his fighting style. This recklessness also causes the most collateral damage, as he fires his gun aimlessly. When he possesses Ryotaro, he first asks "Is it okay if…?" (…いい?, …Ii?, usually "Is it okay if I beat you up?" or "Is it okay if I end it?") followed by "I don't hear an answer" (答えは聞いてない, Kotae wa kiitenai) as if he does not hear a response. He has the ability to control people simply by snapping his fingers. This tactic works with summoning the Machine DenBird as well. Originally, Ryutaros forms a contract with Ryotaro after being promised the title of become DenLiner's conductor by Kai, who also gives the Imagin a ticket, on the condition that he destroys Ryotaro. However, because he does not wish for Airi to cry, Ryutaros decides not to destroy Ryotaro. The only individual he will listen to is Airi, whom he affectionately calls "sis" (お姉ちゃん, onee-chan, Ryotaro only calls her the more formal "sister" (姉さん, nee-san)).

Because he knows that Airi has loved Yuto Sakurai, and from faulty advice on love from Kintaros, he becomes jealous of Yuto and wishes to show that he is stronger than him. This disaster ends in Ryutaros being stopped by Ryotaro, this time with a severe warning. Ryutaros is also credited with being the one who allowed Sieg to come upon the DenLiner, even allowing him access to a luxurious train car. During the events of Kamen Rider Den-O: I'm Born!, Ryutaros possesses the Ryotaro that Yuto brought for the Climax Scene. But this results in him fading from existence were it not for Ryotaro's feelings condensing his remains into the Keitaros, restoring him to normal while allowing Ryutaros to form the chest armor of Den-O's Climax Form until his synch with Ryotaro was negated. However, Ryutaros drew up the concept design of the DenKamen Sword, his power now accessed in the Ryu-Gun Mode. Eventually, Ryutaros meets up with Kai, putting Ryutaros in an awkward position as he aids with sabotaging the ZeroLiner without knowing the consquences of DenLiner being taken and rendered powerless. Due to the recent event, Ryutaros matures and takes the new timeline's effects hard, being forced to give up his desire to be with Airi as she recognized him not to be her Ryotaro. After Ryotaro stands up to Kai for him, Ryutaros is now more willing to help Ryotaro out in any way he can. Like his fellow Imagin, it could be assumed that Ryutaros can perform his own variation of Gun Form's finisher, Wild Shot. However, this remains to be seen.

He usually refers to Urataros and Kintaros as "Turtle-chan" (カメちゃん, Kame-chan) and "Bear-chan" (クマちゃん, Kuma-chan) respectively, excluding Momotaros as he's not based on an animal. He is referred to by the others as "Ryuta" (リュウタ, Ryūta). After this initial arrival on the DenLiner, he is rarely seen without a pair of headphones over his head. Early promotional material stated that his form is based on the legend of Tatsu no Ko Tarō, or Taro the Dragon Boy. tv asahi's website for Den-O states that his form is based on Ryotaro's mental image of dragons.

Deneb

File:Deneb-Den-O.jpg
Deneb in his physical form

Deneb (デネブ, Denebu) is a Imagin fully contracted to Sakurai, gaining a physical form within normal space-time due to Sakurai's wish for Deneb to aid his past self as part of their contract. Deneb serves as Yuto's butler and fights along side him while he's in Altair Form, able to shoot bullets out of his fingertips that range from attacking an enemy to smoke pellets. He also provides Zeronos with his Vega form. He carries around a basket that contains hand-made candies that have wrappers that bear his face called "Deneb Candy" (デネブキャンディー, Denebu Kyandī). His personality is the polar opposite of Yuto's, with Deneb's noble demeanor usually resulting in embarrassing consequences done to Yuto, who comically beats him up for it. Although Yuto treats him with occasional disrespect; Deneb chooses to stand by his side out of friendship and loyalty, knowing Yuto to be a kind person. He also acts as a parental figure to Yuto, doing his best to make sure he lives healthy, including a need to serve shiitake to him, despite Yuto's deep hatred towards it (and usually resulting in a comical beating). At one point, Deneb accidently caused Yuto to waste his second to last ticket. He decided to stop being a burden to Yuto and offers his services to Ryotaro, but it took Ryotaro and Momotaro's words to convince him to return to Yuto.

After Yuto uses his final card, Deneb feels at ease that Yuto wouldn't need to suffer the side effects anymore. That was until Sakurai comes with a new Zeronos Card and a full card holder. Deneb drives the man out with intent not to have Yuto suffer again, but is forced to allow Yuto to use them when he wants to. While Yuto is negated from time momentarily, history is rewritten such that Deneb is contracted to Ryotaro, but is confined in the DenLiner like the Tarōs, during which he serves as the cook and takes Hana's position in keeping the Tarōs in line. When Yuto returns and assumes Zero Form, Deneb is alongside him as the Denebick Buster, to which he finds to be a surprise. However, when he finds out that he completely forgot about Yuto when he was erased from time, he is horrified and breaks down in tears. Deneb decides to make sure no one forgets Yuto by possessing him at night and passing out Deneb Candy to passers-by. However, Deneb learns the hard way that his actions do more harm than good when a young girl he befriends ends up inadvertantly creating a contract with an Imagin. Since then, Deneb pledges to Yuto that regardless of the circumstances, he will fight alongside him until the very end.

Due to Deneb's limited interaction with the Tarōs, he does not have names for them. However, he has on one occasion called Kintaros Kumagoro (くまごろう, Kumagorō). Deneb is also the only Imagin other than Ryutaros to call Momotaros by his actual name as opposed to a nickname.

Deneb's physical form is based on the historical story of Benkei and Karasu-Tengu. He is named after the star Deneb in the constellation Cygnus the Swan which is important in the legend of the Tanabata, as Deneb serves as the connection between lovers Hikoboshi (Altair) and Orihime (Vega) while they are across from each other in the Milky Way. "Altair" and "Vega" are also the names of the two forms that Zeronos can initially access.

Sieg

File:Sieg Imagin.jpg
Sieg on the DenLiner

Sieg (ジーク, Jīku) is the Imagin who arrived 6 months prior to Ryotaro becoming Den-O, originally intending to forge a contract with a young wealthy woman named Shiori Takayama. But she was pregnant and Sieg ended up inside the baby in a deep sleep until he emerges in physical form with no memory of the wish and believes that he forged a contract with the baby instead of Shiori as he had planned. Sieg took his "brother" out of the strange area he found them in, only to meet Ryutaros who takes Sieg to the DenLiner, where the Imagin got his own sleeping car with a lavish bed and Ryutaros helped fill it with stray puppies and kittens. Because of his princely mannerisms, Sieg becomes easily infuriated when treated with disrespect. Because he was "born" in 2007, Sieg possesses extrodinary unique abilities like making other Imagin shrink to four inches in height for a bit of time with the phrase "Your head is high!" (頭が高い!, Zu ga takai!, literally means "stuck-up" or "haughty") and it appears that no other Imagin, including Ryutaros, can force him out of Ryotaro's body. When possessing Ryotaro, Sieg says "Advent, above it all…" (降臨、満を持して…, Kōrin, man o jishite…). Because Yusuke's mind is too young to maintain Sieg's existence, he begins to fade away, but not before becoming Den-O Wing Form to fight the Scorpion Imagin. After the Scorpion Imagin is defeated, Ryotaro returns with a Rider Ticket that he got from Shiori that bore the date June 1, 1997, revaling that Sieg did have a contract with her. He then remembers Shiori's wish for her baby to be born safely, fulfilling that contract. With the DenLiner gang's help, Sieg arrives in the past to live peacefully. However, during the hijack of the DenLiner, Sieg offers his aid to Ryotaro in the Tarōs' stead, battling the Cobra Imajin in the Edo period while befriending Kotaro. He returns in the year 2008 to assist Ryotaro and the others in defeating Kai's army of Imagin.

In his short time on the DenLiner, he demanded that the others call him "Prince" (プリンス, Purinsu) and asked for Hana to be his "Princess" (, Hime), and was punched for each time he called her that. Sieg is based on the swan in the ballet Swan Lake (白鳥の湖, Hakuchō no Mizūmi) and named after its Prince Siegfried (the word "Swan" is written on his breastplate).[1]

The Tortoice Imagin can fire large pellets out of his mouth and has a serious personality while his hare-half has a playful, childish personality. The wish of the Imagin's contractor, Tanaka, is unclear due to the fact that the wish is made at the time he is half-awake. However, the Tortoice Imagin is not able to travel back in time because Tanaka cannot remember making a contract.

The two are ant-like from the left-half of their upper bodies and the right-halves katydid-like. The older brother is named "Ari", who is the cold-headed brother who wields shovel-like sword. His younger brother, "Kirigiris", has a maniacal persona with a lock for taunting his opponents and carries a viola-like sword. Ari lures Den-O to a railway for their trap, fighting Gun Form at a disadvantage until Kirigiris makes his move and the two quickly overpower Gun Form. However, Yuto knew that it would be a trap and sent Deneb to interfere. This act forces Ari to use Fujishiro to adbuct Airi, leaving a message for Den-O to fight him and his brother at the Mitsuboshi Factory if he wants Airi back alive. Yuto and Deneb go in Ryotaro's place to save Airi, with Yuto reluctant to transform and use his last card. M-Ryotaro, however, manages to make it before he transforms with payback on his mind. Both Den-O Sword Form and Deneb attempt to fight off the two Anthopper brothers in vain until Yuto arrives again and transforms into Zeronos for the last time. Zeronos finishes off Ari after a long battle while Den-O assumes Climax Form and finishes off Kirigiris as payback for beating up Ryutaros.

However, the Kraken Imagin reformed into a massive flock of Heavens and a pack of Hells that destroy the entire district, negating the existence of those there, enticing Rod Form's rage as he wiped them all out, restoring everything within time and memory to normal, except for the original contract holder.[20]

The Mole Imagin trio proves too much for Ax Form as he suddenly begins losing his sync with Ryotaro. The two clones depart while their big brother remained to finish the job. Yuto arrives and accepts the elder Sakurai's gift and becomes Zeronos again, defeating the Ax-Hand Mole Imagin as he was about to retreat. The surviving brothers later tear a city block apart to lure Den-O and Zeronos back in time to avenge their brother. Sword Form and Zeronos battle the two Imagin until Momotaros loses his sync and Den-O is reverted to Plat Form. The Mole Imagin are nearly successful in defeating Plat Form and Zeronos Vega Form until the Tarōs arrive and give Ryotaro the power to assume Liner Form.

Ryotaro refuses to accept this loss and assumes Liner Form to battle the female Snail Imagin, weakening her with the DenKamen Sword's other modes before finishing her off with MomoSword mode. In spite of her death, she succeeds in ridding her master of Sakurai by eliminating Yuto as it seemed.

The male Snail Imagin, who uses a gun as his weapon, is later sent by Kai to abduct Hana to force Ryotaro to consider Kai's offer to aid him in ensuring a ideal future.
