As one of the 15 heroic souls, Sanzo Damashii's power is also channeled through the Grateful Damashii which is accessed by Ghost via the Eyecon Driver G, appearing on Grateful's Armor Sublime as the {{nihongo|SanzoLegger|サンゾレッガー|Sanzoreggā}}.

Reincarnation
In 2005, long after his death, Sanzo was reincarnated as a Parka Ghost by the Ghost Hunters with help from Sennin. Among the 15 luminary ghosts assembled by the lead Ghost Hunter, Ryu Tenkuji, who personally picked them with his reasoning being that these figures were people whose lives burned the brightest, their purpose was to counter the Gammaizers, the 15 deities of the Gamma World, in preparation for the Gamma invasion of the human world. Vacant Ghost Eyecons were prepared for each of the luminary ghosts, however, with the unforseen betrayal of Chikara Saionji leading to Ryu's death and the dissolution of the Ghost Hunters, all 15 ghosts were left sealed in unique objects which pertained to them each and would not be freed until the Gamma invasion finally arrived ten years later.

Ghost
The Sanzo Eyecon was collected offscreen by Chikara Saionji, but after Takeru’s wish to bring back Kanon, it was acquired by Jabel. It was soon used by Alain, forcing it into working for him.

However, as the series progresses, Alain has shown to have reformed and vowed to protect the treasures of the Earth. It was at one point used by Takeru to transform into Ghost Grateful Damashii, but after Ghost deactivates Grateful Damashii, the Sanzo Eyecon, alongside the Grimm Eyecon, still decide to return to Alain instead of staying with Takeru.
