Icon-kabutoThis article is about a Worm in Kamen Rider Kabuto.

Epilachna Worm (エピラクナワーム, Epirakuna Wāmu, 5): A Worm who was allowed by ZECT to attack people without being stopped in an attempt to draw out Kabuto in order to capture the Rider System's user. He was destroyed by Kabuto's Rider Kick.

History[]

Kamen Rider Kabuto[]

It duplicated a shipyard worker before molting; it makes a signature cackling sound when attacking. It kills by stabbing its victims in the neck with an appendage extending from its head, after which the victims begin to rot away. Tadokoro's ZECTroopers tried stopping it before being ordered to let it escape. It later attacked another dockworker, ZECT sitting on the sidelines and waiting for Kabuto to arrive to stop it, but he didn't show up. Later still, it attacked a woman, duplicating her, but Kagami arrived and helped her escape, trying without success to defeat it before Tendo finally showed up. He fought it as Kabuto on the roof of a building, both of them Clocking Up as they jumped off the edge. It was defeated by Kabuto's Rider Kick before debris from the roof had fallen to the ground.

Personality[]

Like most Worms, Epilachna shows a sadistic disregard for human life, viewing then only as tools in their mission, seemingly emphasized by its unique cackling noise. It appears to take pleasure from taunting its victims by appearing as their doppelgänger, meeting which legend says is supposed to precede their sudden death.
