Mamoru (マモル ) is a Security Guard-Type Humagear that was hacked by Jin and given a Zetsumerisekey to transform into the Ekal Magia (エカルマギア, Ekaru Magia)[1].
After the Ekal Magia was destroyed, a new in-training model resembling Mamoru took his place, even donning the bandage Aruto placed on Mamoru's arm.
History[]
Mamoru is a Security Guard Humagear who guards the main entrance of the Hiden Intelligence building. When Aruto Hiden and Is arrive to the building, he halts him and lets him pass after learning Aruto is now the CEO. When Okureru was wrecking havoc in the building as the Kuehne Magia, the security Humagear attempted to protect the civilians inside. After Aruto drove off the Kuehne Magia, he tells Mamoru to head to maintenance for repairs. However, unbeknownst to them, Jin watches them and then corrupts Mamoru. When Jin infiltrates Hiden Intelligence, he commands Mamoru to kill Aruto, making him transform into the Ekal Magia. Knowing that a corrupted Humagear cannot be restored to normal, Zero-One is forced to destroy the Ekal Magia.
The next day, a new model resembling Mamoru is installed in Hiden Intelligence and appears in the press conference held by the company revealing MetsubouJinrai.net's existance. He wears the handkerchief around his arm and continues to guard the main entrance as well as Aruto Hiden.
When Aruto was struggling to control the MetalCluster Hopper form, Mamoru remembered when Aruto who saved him from his old Magia self, as he scans his Humagear Body Seal barcode with his own Progrisekey, helping Is transfer his data to the Progrise Hopper Blade.
After the threat of the Ark was seemingly over, Aruto was transformed into the new incarnation of the Ark due to the grief of losing Is. This began brewing a war between humanity and Humagears, and Mamoru continued to protect Vice-President Fukuzoe from the mob riots caused by the Humagears.
