The Philosopher's Stone (賢者の石, Kenja no Ishi) is the forty-eighth episode of Kamen Rider Wizard. This episode marks the first appearance of Yuzuru Ijima as the blue Mage and Masahiro Yamamoto as the green Mage.
Plot[]
With the knowledge that Fueki is not only White Wizard, Koyomi's father, and the Phantoms' leader Wiseman, Haruto, Kosuke, and Mayu work together to try to discover his true plans.
Synopsis[]
Following Medusa's demise, Fueki kidnaps Yamamoto despite Kosuke's efforts to stop him. Back at the Omokagedō, Haruto and the others wonder about Fueki's true intentions and after several days, all efforts to locate him become fruitless. As a blue-colored Kamen Rider Mage replenishes Koyomi's mana, Mayu is attacked by Gremlin, who intends to kidnap her, just to be driven away by Haruto and Kosuke. Haruto then decides to look for Gremlin at Sora's apartment and upon meeting him, he learns from the Phantom that he intends to have at least one magician in his possession to use as a bargain chip for Koyomi.
When Rinko approaches them, Gremlin flees without further explanations and soon after, Rinko is informed that Kizaki has finally awakened from his coma. Koyomi awakens in an unfamiliar house where she finds a photo of herself and Fueki and upon reading his diary, she discovers not only that she is his daughter, but she had died from an uncurable disease, while Haruto and Rinko also learn about it from Kizaki. After obtaining Fueki's address from the officer, Haruto leaves alone to confront him.
Meanwhile, Yuzuru appears before Kosuke and Mayu but acts strangely before them, revealing himself as the blue-colored Kamen Rider Mage who easily defeats Kosuke and kidnaps Mayu. At Fueki's house, Haruto learns from him that he obtained the power of magic upon creating the artificial Phantom Carbuncle and implanting it in his body. He also reveals that with the power of Haruto and the other magicians, he intends to reenact the Sabbath to gather enough mana to revive Koyomi using the Philosopher's Stone that is stored inside her lifeless body.
With Haruto unwilling to cooperate, Fueki commands Yamamoto, who transforms into a green-colored Kamen Rider Mage, to attack him.
