"Tell me...Would you be willing to give up your life to someone else?"

―Makoto's question to Takeru Tenkuji^[src]

"You are too soft...In how you think, and the how prepareness for your fight, everything about you is soft."

―Next to previous quote, Makoto taunt Takeru's personality.^[src]

Makoto Fukami (深海 マコト, Fukami Makoto) is Kamen Rider Specter (仮面ライダースペクター, Kamen Raidā Supekutā), the secondary Rider of Kamen Rider Ghost. Little is known about his background at this time.

Character History

Makoto observes Ghost.

Specter makes his first appearance before Ghost to enlist the ghost of Nobunaga.

Makoto first appears observing Kamen Rider Ghost, who had just destroyed the Ono Ganma with his newly acquired Robin Damashii, from a distance with the Mobile Cobra in hand. ^{[Bullseye! Bow and Arrow of Justice!]} Continuing his observation of Ghost in his own Rider form, Specter made his appearance when Ghost unlocked Oda Nobunaga's Parka Ghost, urging Nobunaga to join him in battle instead, to which the Parka Ghost obliged as it entered Specter's Ghost Driver, resulting in the creation of the Nobunaga Ghost Eyecon. Claiming the Eyecon for himself, Specter addressed a confused Ghost, telling him that he was too soft before taking his leave as suddenly as he appeared with his appearance being noted by Aran who observed from a distance. ^{[Amazing! The Castle in the Sky!]}

He later appears again when Ghost is chasing the Machine Gun Ganma, attacking Takeru while the ganma escapes. He defeats Takeru by using his Gan Gun Hand's Omega Spark finisher while in Nobunaga Damashii and takes Takeru's Edison Eyecon. Later, when Takeru struggles against the Machine Gun Ganma again, Makoto appears and transforms into Specter to steal Takeru's dropped Newton Eyecon. The Ganma attacks Specter however; incensed at the Ganma's attacking him by shooting him in the back, Makoto changes target from the downed Ghost to Machine Gun, transforming into his Tutankhamen Damashii form and soon defeats Machine Gun with the Gan Gun Hand in Sickle Mode's Omega Fang finisher. Makoto picks up the Eyecon, then the two Riders engaged in a Rider Kick clash that sends Ghost out of transformation. However, in that clash, Takeru manages to steal the Newton Eyecon back. Livid at realizing that the Eyecon was missing, Specter storms off. ^{[Shock! Mystery Kamen Rider!]}

Damashii

Specter's forms are called Damashii (魂, Damashī, Souls), accessed using the Ghost Eyecons. He also bears a headpiece called the Persona (ペルソナ, Perusona, Latin for "Mask"), which gives off a glow effect with the rest of his body. The Persona changes with Specter's numerous Damashii forms, as well as serving as a prefix title for all of the Damashii forms' helms. Differentiating himself from Kamen Rider Ghost, Specter normally bears a pair of Wisp Horns (ウィスプホーン, Wisupu Hōn) on his head in most of his Damashii forms, allowing him to use them either for perceiving and sensing Ganma within a 8 km. radius or as a weapon.

By pulling and pushing the Ghost Driver's lever a second time after transforming, Specter can activate an Omega Drive (オメガドライブ, Omega Doraibu) finishing attack tied to the Ghost Eyecon currently being used. If he pulls and pushes the lever four times, he can instead execute an Oomedama (オオメダマ, Ōmedama, lit. "Giant eyeball" (大目玉, "Giant eyeball")) special attack.

Behind the Scenes

Portrayal

Makoto Fukami is portrayed by Ryosuke Yamamoto (山本 涼介, Yamamoto Ryōsuke).

As Kamen Rider Specter, his suit actor is Jun Watanabe (渡辺 淳, Watanabe Jun).

Notes

• Like Takeru, Makoto's first name is in katakana rather than in kanji. He is also the first secondary Rider to have his first name in katakana.
• It is ironic that one of Makoto's forms is based on Houdini, as Houdini himself was infamous for debunking spiritualism when he was alive.
• Makoto is the first secondary Kamen Rider to have the ability to combine with a Rider Machine to gain a new form.

• Makoto's transformation pose before pulling the handle on his Driver is similar to part of Kotaro Minami's transformation pose as Kamen Rider Black, both clenching their fists before initiating the transformation.
• Makoto Fukami has made the second-earliest debut of any Secondary Rider of the Neo-Heisei Era, first appearing as a cameo in his civilian form in the third episode, and appearing in his Rider form in the fourth episode. The only Secondary Rider to make his debut earlier is Kaito Kumon/Kamen Rider Baron, who first appeared in first episode of his series, and made his debut as a Rider two episodes later.
