World of Memories |
This article is about a Rider in Kamen Rider Revice. |
This iteration of Kagero (カゲロウ, Kagerō) is a fragment of a simulation started by George Karizaki to restore Ikki Igarashi's memories of Vice. Much like the original, this Kagero can transform into Kamen Rider Evil (仮面ライダーエビル, Kamen Raidā Ebiru).
History[]
When George were trying to restore Ikki's memory of Vice by sending his conscious to his "World of Memories", iteration of Kagero appeared here to fight Kamen Riders Revi and Vice as Kamen Rider Evil. However, once Vice reminded him about curry, Kagero decided to fight against Giff Juniors and help Ikki and Vice.
Personality[]
In contrast to Daiji, Kagero is blunt, cold, manipulative and amoral, often seen with a sadistic smile. He does not think highly of his host, calling him an idiot. He is cold in demeanor and shown to be a skilled manipulator.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Demon Physiology: As a demon, Kagero possesses the following characteristics:
- Possession: Initially, Kagero was able to take control of Daiji's body completely, through the latter's hidden resentment towards Ikki, which was built up over time. After Daiji managed to gain control of his inner demon for the first time, the two were able to switch places whenever Daiji's physical body receives a strong enough force to knock him out and render the dominant personality unconscious. Ever since Kagero re-emerged after having been sealed into the Holy Wing Vistamp for a while, the two are now able to switch places whenever they wish. Kagero is also now able to speak from within Daiji even when he is not actively possessing his host.
- Enhanced Strength: Kagero is shown to be incredibly strong, as he was able to overpower Vice in battle and sent him flying in a single hit, and damaged Orteca when Live was not able to. After resurfacing, his strength seems to have improved drastically, as shown when he was able to defeat several Deadmans and Gifftarians easily without breaking a sweat.

Bat Genome (バットゲノム, Batto Genomu) is Evil's bat-based primary form accessed by using the Bat Vistamp in the Two Sidriver.
In this form, Kamen Rider Evil's statistics are generally superior to Kamen Riders Revi and Vice's main forms, though both Eagle Genomes and Revi Jackal Genome have higher jump height, Vice Lion Genome has higher running speed, both Kong Genomes have higher punching power, and both Brachio Genomes have higher punching and kicking power. Bat Genome also has excellent stealth capability, allowing Evil to sneak up on enemies without making a sound. Evil wields the Evilblade as his primary weapon, which he uses to perform teal energy slashes. He is able to release a series of multiple energy slashes with just a single swing. In his final battle with Live, Evil also briefly used the Livegun to fire teal energy blasts.
Bat Genome consists of the following parts:
- Evil Bat Head (エビルバットヘッド, Ebiru Batto Heddo): The head.
- Evil Bat Echo (エビルバットエコー, Ebiru Batto Ekō): The Bat Carabellad's radome. It reproduces echolocation utilizing the ultrasonic waves of bats and uses it as radar and flight control. The ultrasonic waves can also be used as a directed energy weapons and can disable the target's hearing.
- Bat Brachi Eye (バットブラチアイ, Batto Burachi Ai): The compound eyes. Making use of the irregular shape, the field of view can be flexibly expanded and slanted. In addition, even in situations where visibility cannot be secured, such as in the dark, it is possible to carry out activities like normal by visualizing the information obtained from the Evil Bat Echo.
- Bat Carabellad (バットカラベラード, Batto Karaberādo): The face armor. The strong armor that protects the face is composed of a combination of trapezoidal and inverted trapezoidal cross sections, and has extremely high stealth performance and ricochet performance.
- Versus Crusher (バーサスクラッシャー, Bāsasu Kurasshā): The oral cavity. By increasing the concentration of oxygen obtained by breathing and permeating it into every corner of the body, the motor functions of the user are dramatically improved and the speed of recovery from fatigue is accelerated.
- Bat Brandy Jacket (バットブランディージャケット, Batto Burandī Jaketto): The upper body armor. The unique ability engraved with the symbol mark makes the user a bat warrior. This makes him a dark hitman who specializes in covert operations by gaining high calmness and flying ability. In addition, it has a built-in Evil System (エビルシステム, Ebiru Shisutemu) that amplifies the negative energy of the user and converts it into power, creating powerful fighting strength.
- Versus Genomic Suit (バーサスゲノミックスーツ, Bāsasu Genomikku Sūtsu): The reinforced suit. Deployed at the same time as the Versus Up, the genetic information of the species supplied from the Two Sidriver is reconstructed, and by wearing it in an enhanced shape, the user is transformed into Kamen Rider Evil.
- Evil Bat Shoulder (エビルバットショルダー, Ebiru Batto Shorudā): The shoulders. By thinning and deploying the powerful energy Genome Power (ゲノムパワー, Genomu Pawā) supplied by the Two Sidriver, wings are formed and flight becomes possible.
- Evil Bat Arm (エビルバットアーム, Ebiru Batto Āmu): The arms. The Bat Brandy Jacket upper body armor that includes the arms has high stealth and appears suddenly in data such as in instruments, giving the illusion that it had disappeared suddenly.
- Evil Bat Glove (エビルバットグローブ, Ebiru Batto Gurōbu): The gloves. Special adjustments have been made to handle the Evilblade removed from the Two Sidriver and they are good at fighting with a sword.
- Evil Bat Leg (エビルバットレッグ, Ebiru Batto Reggu): The legs. Utilizing their high impact absorption ability, they not only receive the enemy's attacks with the legs, but are protected from the tremendous shock they themselves produce, such as in finishing moves. In addition, movement sounds such as footsteps are minimized by combining with the quiet ability of bats.
- Evil Bat Boots (エビルバットブーツ, Ebiru Batto Būtsu): The boots. Equipped with a sole that has strong suction power, it is possible to walk on walls or ceilings. In addition, by concentrating energy, the finishing move Darkness Finish can be activated.
