 This article is about a Rider in Kamen Rider 555.
|
- For the original iteration, see Kanade Amou.
Kanade Amou (天羽 奏, Amō Kanade) was a supporting character in Senki Zessho Symphogear. She was the first holder of the Gungnir relic who transforms into Faiz Gear (Gungnir) (ファイズギア [ガングニール], Faizu Gia [Gangunīru]).
History[]
After sacrificing her life by singing her Superb Song, Kanade Amou was transformed both mentally and physically into an Orphnoch and joined Smart Brain. Kanade would confront Tsubasa and Hibiki as Kamen Rider Faiz. During the confrontation, she received energy from Hibiki's Gungnir, regaining her human emotions. Simultaneously, the Faiz Gear evolved into the Faiz-type Gungnir.
Forms[]
Gungnir
Kanade possessed the third Relic, Gungnir, and achieved synchronization with it through a LiNKER drug. As a potential Symphogear candidate, she utilized the Symphogear in combat. However, she is forced to rely on LiNKER for this ability, hence Kanade died after singing her Superb Song due to having low compatibility and from not taking LiNKER.
Her armed gear materialized as a white and gold lance. In contrast to her successor Hibiki, Kanade could summon an armed gear and had a more extensive array of armor.

Once transformation is completed, the Faiz Armor has several key features in its design to offer protection to the user. Like all Rider gears, the Faiz armor manifests when the Faiz Driver generates Photon Blood, a glowing substance generates the soft Sol Foam suit, Sol Metal armor, and Fullmetal Lung chest armor via traveling through the red Photon Streams that ends at the Photon Terminals at the gauntlet and Power Anklet greaves, the right Anklet having a Energy Holster that the Faiz Pointer can be connected to. The helmet is unique due to its Global Feeler antenna to link up to Smart Brain's networks and Ultimate Finder visor that gives Faiz incredible vision to see in darkness, giving the illusion of a glowing eye, and a limited amount of x-ray vision.
Kamen Rider Faiz's finishing attack is called the Crimson Smash (クリムゾンスマッシュ, Kurimuzon Sumasshu), in which the Faiz Pointer (when mounted on the right leg) generates a crimson energy drill that Faiz uses to kick through an enemy.
Kamen Rider Faiz is composed of the following parts:
- Black Shell Met (ブラックシェルメット, Burakku Sheru Metto): The head. It is a reinforced helmet developed by Smart Brain, and has a thin shell layer made out of Sol Metal (ソルメタル, Soru Metaru), a supermetal with hardness close to a diamond. An impact absorption bag is installed inside.
- Global Feelers (グローバルフィーラー, Gurōbaru Fīrā): The antennae. They commuicate with the artificial satellites Eagle Sat (イーグルサット, Īguru Satto) and Hawk Eye (ホークアイ, Hōku Ai) that support Kamen Rider Faiz's systems. They can collect information as well as download new programs.
- Extreme Nose (エクストリームノーズ, Ekusutorīmu Nōzu): An olfactory organ that artificially creates a sense of smell one million times more potent that humans'. While its sensitivity can be freely adjusted, it typically has the same olfactory powers as a dog.
- Satellite Signal (サテライトシグナル, Sateraito Shigunaru): The green signal on the face. It blinks mainly when communicating with satellites and when tracking an enemy. A green gauge means stable supply, a blinking green light indicates access, a blinking red light indicates access error, and a red light is flashed when communication is not possible.
- Ultimate Finder (アルティメットファインダー, Arutimetto Faindā): The visor. It has an ultra-sensitive camera that converts images into electrical signals and conveys them to he wearer. It also has a scope function that allows daylight vision even in the darkness, and an X-ray camera function that allows seeing through objects.
- Photon Terminal (フォトンターミナル, Foton Tāminaru): The strip running vertically down the middle of the face. It is a junction ballast that connects photon streams. The Photon Blood flowing within the three terminals emits too much energy, so this equipment applies resistance so that the suit itself does not self-destruct, and it supplies power to the whole body in a stable manner. There is another Photon Terminal located on the back.
- Pin Falls Sonar (ピンフォールズソナー, Pin Fōruzu Sonā): Extremely sensitive audio devices that can hear a needle fall from 5km away. The sensitivity can be freely changed according to the wearer's will.
- Extreme Regulator (エクストリームレギュレーター, Ekusutorīmu Regyurētā): The mouthpiece. It is an oxygen supply device for the wearer. It enables activities in harsh environment where there is extremely little oxygen such as water or toxic gases.
- Neck Shield (ネックシールド, Nekku Shīrudo): The neck. it is made out of Sol Metal 315 (ソルメタル315, Soru Metaru 315), a special type of Sol Metal that combines hardness and softness. There are countless capillary cables running inside it that protects the neck from external shocks. The cables also serve to transmit information between the suit and the Black Shell Met.
- Full Metal Lung (フルメタルラング, Furu Metaru Rangu): The chest armor. It has a structure in which two shock absorbing bags are sandwiched between four layers of Sol Metal, allowing the heavy armor to repel tank fire. An oxygen tank is built in.
- Sol Foam (ソルフォーム, Soru Fōmu): The reinforced bodysuit. It is knitted with ultrafine metal threads of Sol Metal 315 that combines hardness and softness. Additionally, the surface is coated with silver coating.
- Spin Pad (スピンパッド, Supin Paddo): Protective pads located on the back. They protect the spine and the Photon Stream from any impacts from behind. If need be, it becomes an airbag.
- Spin Connector (スピンコネクタ, Supin Konekuta): The back of the Faiz Driver connects to the wearer's spine via an myriad of capillary cables. There is no pain during connection due to the usage of ultrafine needles.
- Photon Stream (フォトンストリーム, Foton Sutorīmu): The red lines running all over the body. It is an energy flow path that contains the fluid energy Photon Blood (フォトンブラッド, Foton Buraddo), which is red for Faiz. Every suit developed by Smart Brain has Photon Blood, each one with a different color.
- Power Fingers (パワーフィンガー, Pawā Fingā): The fingers. They have enough strength to break a 30cm steel plate yet are delicate enough to operate the Faiz Phone.
- Metal Intercooler (メタルインタークーラー, Metaru Intākūrā): Grey metal plates installed at the back of the head, shoulders and back sections. They are heat dissipation units that release excess heat emitted by the Photon Blood. As most of the electronics are located in the helmet, a large Metal Intercooler is placed at the back of it.
- Knee Folders (ニーフォルダー, Nī Forudā): The knees. They are made out of Sol Metal 228 (ソルメタル228, Soru Metaru 228), which is even harder than regular Sol Metal. It consists of two metal boards and one shock absorber. Due to its hardness, they can be used as striking weapons.
- Flex Bellows (フレックスベロウズ, Furekkusu Berouzu): The lower legs. They are bellows (air bag devices) for shock absorption.
- Energy Holster (エナジーホルスター, Enajī Horusutā): A holster on the lower right leg. It is an energy amplification terminal that is used to mount the Faiz Pointer whenever Faiz wishes to execute the Crimson Smash Rider Kick attack.
- Power Anklets (パワーアンクレット, Pawā Ankuretto): The ankle armor. They are control terminals that concentrates power onto the legs when kicking. In addition, the Flex Bellows that surrounds the calf absorbs the intense impact when kicking.
