Imagin
Encyclopedia
The are a fictional race that serve as the antagonists in the Kamen Rider Series
Kamen Rider Den-O
. The name "Imagin" comes from several words in the English
, Japanese
, and even Arabic
languages: , , and .
The Imagin were designed by , who previously worked on the designs for the Undead
in Kamen Rider Blade
, the Horrors
in GARO
, and the Worms in Kamen Rider Kabuto
. These designs are detailed in .
The hosts, recognized by the sands of time spilling from their bodies, are offered a single wish by the Imagin. In exchange, the Imagin is able to dive into the most treasured moment of the person's past. As displayed, however, the host must remember making the contract for the Imagin to successfully travel to the past. Additionally, due to the greatly delicate nature of the contract, if the contract holder forgets or dies before the contract is completed, the Imagin bound to him or her would fade out of existence. Opening the human like a door, a portal is revealed that leads to the appropriate time, severing their ties to the human in the process. From there, the Imagin takes over a host's body or simply manifests itself in its physical form and begins causing massive chaos. In turn, due to the laws of time, everything and everyone destroyed in the past no longer exists in the present. However, as Ryotaro learned in time, the restoration of these things rely on just being remembered. Also, if an alteration to the past prevents the contract from ever being made in the first place, the damage will be negated completely due to it never having happened, as was the case with the Ivy Imagin. However, it appears that should the Imagin have been destroyed in the past, its destruction is not undone.
can summon at least four Imagin. Each of these Imagin gives Den-O their power when they are called upon with each form suiting to their fighting style. These Imagin are collectively known as the due to their namesakes. When not possessing Ryotaro, the Tarōs spend their time in the DenLiner's dining car. However, they are also able to enter physical time and space by possessing vacant forms, such as full-body costumes, although this leaves them physically unstable. The Imagin have also proven capable of possessing Ryotaro all at once after the creation of Climax Form, but outside of their transformed state, this 4-way possession is dangerously unstable and physically stressful for Ryotaro. Due to their nature as Imagin, they can sense evil Imagin near Ryotaro's vicinity and alert him likewise. In addition to powering up Den-O, the four are each armed with a weapon and each are able to perform their form of Den-O's finishing attack in their normal state.
When the Junction Point starts to form, the Tarōs start to lose sync with Ryotaro and are unable to possess him when he travels to the past. To continue to assist him, they create the DenKamen Sword, which allows him to channel their power without direct possession. Though Ryotaro is curious of these recent events, the four are reluctant to explain that it meant the future they came from is being erased, causing their kind to cease to exist as the result of their battle with the evil Imagin. In spite of it, however, the Tarōs intend to keep fighting to the end, gaining physical form within normal space-time as a result of each Imagin granting Ryotaro's wish that they fight together until the end. When the time does come and they fade away, it is revealed that the memories they made with Ryotaro have created a time lag, allowing them to maintain their existence as they take leave on the DenLiner.
Soon after, the four become members of the , a newly-made law-enforcement group to prevent changes in the past by Imagin who also survived the Junction Point and form an army under Negataros. Because of their status as Imagin who fulfilled their contracts, the Tarōs are able to possess anyone as seen with Yuto, Wataru Kurenai
, Tsukasa Kadoya
, Yusuke Onodera
, Natsumi Hikari, the Arms Monsters of Kamen Rider Kiva
, G3, Ouja, Caucasus, Kotaro Nogami
, and Ankh.
is the first Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the Sword Form transformation. He can also sense when an Imagin is rampaging in the city, subsequently alerting Ryotaro immediately. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a sword named the . Momotaros blames Ryotaro for his Oni-like form, though it matches his personality, best described as hot blooded, arrogant, and comedic, serving as a foil to Ryotaro's own shy and cowardly personality. In fact, Momotaros is more interested in fighting than carrying out the Imagin's goal. Unfortunately, he is constantly beaten by Hana when he gets Ryotaro into trouble. When he possesses Ryotaro, declaring the words , Momotaros's own personality takes over, giving Ryotaro power, confidence, and a bit of his eagerness for a good fight. His eagerness is shown in battle, where he always declares the words, . Momotaros is also somewhat selfish, initially fighting alongside Ryotaro in order to ensure his own survival. Though he unknowingly places Ryotaro in unneeded danger to suit his fancy, Momotaros eventually learns to respect him and his desire to protect others. Though he demands respect, Momotaros is usually put in his place by Hana and her powerful punches. He also does not know how to swim, has a narcotic reaction to red peppers, and seems to be afraid of dogs. While he acts hostile and demeaning to the other Tarōs, he does care about them, proven by hiding his anguish while they are slowly disappearing due to the events of the Climax Scene
. Momotaros is the base for Den-O's Climax Form, as he has control of the head and torso and can control the other sections that the other Tarōs usually have primary control of if need be. During the events of OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders
, Momotaros assumed both the forms of the Momotaken for New Den-O to use and then the Imagin Medal for Kamen Rider OOO to use to assume Tamashii Combo.
When insulting another Imagin, he usually calls them a depending on the animal they are modeled after, or a shortened version. The other exceptions are Ryutaros, referred as or , Deneb as , and Teddy as . Momotaros also refers to Hana as literally . He also puts emphasis on his final blow attacks, saying while possessing Ryotaro in Den-O Sword Form, with a Part 1, 2, 2’ (Two-Dash), 3, and 5 (Ryotaro tells Momotaros that he skipped 4, but he considers not using 4 "cool", even counting from 1-10 while skipping 4). In his battle against Kamen Rider Gaoh, Den-O Sword Form swiped the Rider Pass over the Den-O Belt twice, initiating a doubled Full Charge for . In his battle against the Alligator Imagin in Kamen Rider Decade
, while empowered by Decade's Final AttackRide Card, Momotaros uses Kuuga Gouram and a DenGasher for his . When performing his version of the attack in his physical form, he calls it "My Finishing Attack, Momotaros Version". His physical form is based on an oni and a peach
and his DenLiner train features a dog, monkey, and bird, all of which are companions of the Peach Boy. Ironically, the legend has Momotaros's namesake defeating evil oni, while Momotaros is based on an oni.

is the second Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, allowing transformation into Den-O Rod Form. The form given to him by Ryotaro is turtle
-like in appearance, with his weapon being the , a rod with hexagonal blades at each end. Furthermore, Urataros was well-aware of Ryotaro being a Singularity Point, making his contract to him on purpose—though he says it is to evade the loneliness of being outside time, Hana later debunks this entirely. When he possesses Ryotaro, he usually states the words, .
He is also aware of the evil Imagin planning to destroy time, but simply does not want to commit it as in spite of his cool exterior, there's indication that he's somewhat of a coward and lies just for self preservation. Urataros is a casanova with a very convincing personality, owning the ability to convince almost anyone by speaking to them, with Ryotaro the only one who trusts him and lets him stay as he sees he has a good heart. Urataros, however, later says that he lies simply for the sake of lying ("One lie is more interesting than a thousand truths"), and seems quite irritated that Ryotaro is "trivializing his lies."
While Momotaros gets Ryotaro in trouble through reckless methods, Urataros puts Ryotaro in conflicting situations when he goes around wooing multiple women. Despite these negative traits, along with his occasional fights with Momotaros, Urataros does show genuine concern for Ryotaro's well being the best speaker of the Taros, possessing Ryotaro simply to get information out of someone, or to talk his way out of something. He is also useful in situations that require patience, something Momotaros severely lacks.
He usually refers to Momotaros as and Kintaros as either or respectively. Urataros' physical form is based on that of a turtle and fishing rod
s are a common motif, both of which are aspects of the myth of , a fisherman who caught a turtle that led him to the castle of Ryūjin
.
Urataros is voiced by .
is the third Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the Ax Form transformation. He is vaguely modeled after a bear
and has a Sumo wrestler-like personality. He also has a habit of deep sleeping (akin to hibernation) until the mere mentioning of any word that sounds remotely similar to the Japanese word for often provokes Kintaros out of his slumber to possess Ryotaro in an instant.
He speaks in a the dialect of Kansai-ben
, saying, , whenever he possesses Ryotaro, taking out a handkerchief for whoever wants to wipe their tears off with. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a giant battleaxe named the . He has a habit of popping his neck every time he begins and ends a battle, as well having as a battlecry.
Kintaros is a strong Imagin who constantly seeks opponents stronger than himself. Unfortunately, he is sometimes unable to control his own strength resulting in accidentally destroying things, which he attempts to fix afterward. He is also very selfless and had no intent to follow Kai's orders to alter time to begin with. At first, he is dependent on a retired karate
ka named Masaru Honjō, who gave him his "bear
ish" look, as he attempted to master karate so Masaru could achieve the "ultimate karate". Kintaros wants to teach Masaru the ultimate karate, in order to let him settle things with Kikuchi instead of disturbing the timestream.
Seeing the good side of Kintaros when he protects Masaru from the Rhino Imagin and being mortally wounded in doing so, Ryotaro allows Kintaros to enter a contract with him, saving the Imagin's life. Unlike the others, who had (at least partly) selfish intentions for assisting Ryotaro, Kintaros's motives for helping him are noble from the start, having a desire to repay Ryotaro for saving his life, stating so on several occasions.
He usually refers to Momotaros as and refers to Urataros as . Kintaros' physical form, based on that of a strong golden bear, are aspects of the traditional myth of the Golden Boy, said to be strong enough to wrestle bears and demons.
Kintaros is voiced by . Terasoma was also known as the voice of Shadow Moon
from the Kamen Rider Black
series.
is the fourth Imagin that gives Ryotaro his power, which allows for the transformation into Den-O Gun Form. His natural weapon as an Imagin is a shotgun
named the . Though he is the last Imagin to appear, Ryutaros initially possessed Ryotaro the moment that Urataros did, and simply hid himself from the others. Ryutaros reveals himself in his form when he is attracted by Naomi's coffee inside the DenLiner. Ryutaros is most childish in personality with a love for drawing and animals. Ryutaros also appears to enjoy break dancing, to the point to that it is incorporated into his flashy fighting style. His personality is one of a fun-loving dancer/disc jockey and is the most dominant Den-O has. This recklessness also causes the most collateral damage, as he fires his gun aimlessly.
When he possesses Ryotaro, he first asks followed by . He has the ability to control people simply by snapping his fingers. This tactic works with summoning the Machine DenBird as well. Originally, Ryutaros possesses Ryotaro after being promised the title of become the DenLiner's conductor by Kai, who also gives the Imagin a ticket, on the condition that he destroys Ryotaro.
However, because he does not wish for Airi to cry, Ryutaros decides not to destroy Ryotaro. The only individual he will listen to is Airi, whom he affectionately calls . Because he knows that Airi has loved Yuto Sakurai, and from faulty advice on love from Kintaros, he becomes jealous of Yuto and wishes to show that he is stronger than him. But when Kai takes matters in his own hands in killing him, combined with realizing how he and Airi can not to be together, Ryutaros matures a bit to cope with fading away while eventually mustering courage to fight in the final battle against Kai.
He usually refers to Urataros, Kintaros, Sieg, Teddy respectively as , , , and . However, he excludes Momotaros as he is not based on an animal and Momotaros does not understand him like the others do. He is referred to by the others as . After this initial arrival on the DenLiner, he is rarely seen without a pair of headphones over his head.
One of the Tarōs, Ryutaros's basis is unclear as early promotional material stated his form to be based on the legend of Tatsu no Kotarō (Taro the Dragon
Boy) while TV Asahi
's website for Den-O states that his form is based on Ryotaro's mental image of dragons. Two of the Imagin Anime shorts bring up the topic of Ryutaros's possible namesake
.

is an Imagin fully contracted to Yuto Sakurai, gaining a physical form within normal spacetime due to Sakurai's wish for the Imagin to aid his past self as part of their contract. Rather than possessing him to travel into the past, Deneb willingly betrays Kai and possesses Sakurai in the middle of a fight after witnessing his desire to protect time as Zeronos. Deneb serves as Yuto's butler and fights alongside him while he is in Altair Form, able to shoot bullets (or smoke pellets) out of his fingertips. He also provides Zeronos the ability to transform into Vega form. He carries around a basket that contains hand-made candies that have wrappers that bear his face called . His personality is the polar opposite of Yuto's, with Deneb's noble demeanor usually resulting in embarrassing consequences done to Yuto, who comically beats him up for it. Although Yuto treats him with occasional disrespect; Deneb chooses to stand by his side out of friendship and loyalty, knowing Yuto to be a kind person. He also acts as a parental figure to Yuto, doing his best to make sure he lives healthy, including a need to serve shiitake
to him, despite Yuto's deep hatred towards it (and usually resulting in a comical beating). Due to the fact he has a physical form in normal spacetime, Deneb often appears in (poorly constructed) disguises in order to avoid standing out.
Due to Deneb's limited interaction with the Tarōs, he does not have names for them. However, he has on one occasion called Kintaros and Urataros as . Deneb is also the only Imagin other than Ryutaros to call Momotaros by his actual name as opposed to a nickname. Deneb is also the only main Imagin who does not have his own catchphrase, although merchandise from Toei and Bandai often feature Deneb saying . Upon transforming into Vega Form, Deneb often starts out with , followed by something honest. The first instance was . Deneb's physical form is based on the historical story of Benkei
and the fictional Karasu-Tengu
. He is also named after the star Deneb
in the constellation
Cygnus the Swan
which is important in the legend of the Tanabata
along with "Altair" and "Vega", the names of the two forms that Zeronos can initially access.

is an Imagin who enables Den-O's transformation into Wing Form. He arrives in the current timeline six months prior to Ryotaro becoming Den-O, originally intending to forge a contract with a young wealthy pregnant woman named Shiori Takayama, but possesses her unborn son in the process. After the child is born and subsequently kidnapped, Sieg comes into being and seeks to reunite his "brother" with their "mother", crossing paths with Ryutaros and gaining access to the DenLiner. Due to his "privileged" upbringing and his already princely mannerisms, Sieg becomes easily infuriated when treated with disrespect. Because he is "born" in 2007, he also possesses extraordinary unique abilities. Aside from shrinking the Tarōs to 4 inches tall with the phrase , he also cannot be forcibly removed from Ryotaro's body as he does not need a contract to possess humans. When possessing Ryotaro, Sieg says . He almost vanishes due to his contract holder being a newborn child and unable to form proper memories, but Ryotaro is able to discover that Sieg actually made a contract with the mother to ensure her then unborn son's safety, saving Sieg's life in the process. As his contract has been fulfilled, the DenLiner takes Sieg to the date of his Shiori's greatest memory and lives in the past freely. After his appearances in the television series, he appears in the films Kamen Rider Den-O: I'm Born!
and Saraba Kamen Rider Den-O: Final Countdown allowing for the transformation into Wing Form, and again in Cho Kamen Rider Den-O & Decade Neo Generations: The Onigashima Warship, pestering Tsukasa's group until brought to the climatic battle to join the Tarōs in forming Super Climax Form. He also appeared in Cho-Den-O Trilogy Episode Blue: The Dispatched Imagin is Newtral
.
During his first time on the DenLiner, he demanded that the others call him and asked for Hana to be his , and was punched for each time he called her that. After his return, Sieg refers to the Tarōs as his "family" instead of his "friend" phrasing. In the Imagin Anime OVA, Sieg had an additional power that allows him to shrink everything in sight, even an entire planet. His name is given as "Zieg" in the series' photobook , however, other materials give his name as "Sieg," such as the earlier photobook . Sieg's physical form and name are based on swan and from the story .

to Kotaro's Don Quixote.
Teddy first appears with Kotaro during the events of Saraba Kamen Rider Den-O: Final Countdown, both serving to replace Ryotaro and the Tarōs as protectors of spacetime. When Shiro travels back in time to May 23, 1729, and the New DenLiner gang follows, Teddy is the one who learns of Shiro's plans to attack the small village nearby and is seriously wounded by Shiro's forces. He recovers in time to help in the final battle against Kamen Rider Yuuki. But during the events of Episode Blue: The Dispatched Imagin is Newtral, Teddy is forced to set up a new contract with the Owner as his original contract had expired in the events of Final Countdown and is renamed . Though he nearly destroys himself in the process by derailing from his contract to help Kotaro, Teddy becomes his partner again.

The Bat Imagin has the ability to create wings to fly with and attacks using sonics. After attaching himself to Tetsuo, Tetsuo wishes for the return of the jinglebell keyholder that he lost.

Despite his best attempts, the Rhino's mace is shattered by Den-O's brute strength, allowing him to be struck down by the Dynamic Chop. He then reforms into Gigandeath Hell and is destroyed by DenLiner Rekkou.
The Ivy Imagin wields a double-bladed sword and uses his vines as weapons. After sensing Kensaku's subconscious desire to be with his daughter Kasumi, the Ivy Imagin fulfills this wish by preventing her career from advancing. When he travels to the past, the Ivy Imagin destroys the Kobayashi's hometown, and is eventually defeated by Den-O Ax Form. Due to Kintaros' interference in the past, the Ivy Imagin is prevented from ever making the contract at all, negating his damage.
The Owl Imagin wields a sword and uses his feathers as bombs, just like the Crow Imagin. When Shūji Toyama wishes for the park he works at to become a better place for the stray animals that live in it, the Owl fulfills this wish by first attacking any human who tries to enter the park, then, eventually barricading the entrance to the park with cars, and debris. When he travels to the past, havoc ensues before the Owl Imagin is defeated by Den-O Gun Form, and then destroyed by DenLiner Ikazuchi when the Imagin's essence splits and forms into two Gigandeaths.

The Tortoice [sic
] Imagin is actually two Imagin: a dominant and slow tortoise
-half with an energetic hare
-half generally dormant inside the Imagin's body unless needed. The Tortoice Imagin can fire large pellets out of his mouth and has a serious personality while his hare-half has a playful, childish personality. The wish of the Imagin's contractor, Tanaka, is unclear because the wish is made at the time he is half-awake. However, the Tortoice Imagin is not able to travel back in time because Tanaka cannot remember making a contract. Once Tanaka is able to remember, the Tortoice Imagin travels back in time only to be defeated by Zeronos and Den-O taking on the Imagin and his hare half.

The Heaven is destroyed by DenLiner Isurugi's beams and the Hell Gigandeath is chopped to pieces by Zeroliner Niginata's blades and explodes.
The Scorpion Imagin, armed with a saber, made a contract to abduct Shiori for Akio, preferring to grant an "easy" wish with no tolerance for those who attempt to meddle in his affairs. Though halted by Den-O twice, the Scorpion managed to go back to time. The Scorpion Imagin was fought by Den-O's Rod Form before Ax Form finishes him off.
The red-eyed Spider Imagin, able to fire energy webs from his arms, was bent on granting Masashi's wish for his sister Mayu to see a starry sky, intent on tying her to a radio tower to fulfill it. Though initially defeated by Zeronos, it turned out that the Spider Imagin split itself in two prior to the fight with a more serious version outliving his crazed "brother." The second green-eyed Spider Imagin caused a massive blackout to fulfill the wish without trouble. Once in time, the Spider battled Den-O Gun-Form to avenge his "brother" until future Zeronos interfered and Sword-Form finished the fight.
The red-eyed Spider Imagin later returns in the Kamen Rider Den-O Hyper Battle Video, amongst the other Imagin aboard the DenLiner exercising before making his move around Ryutaros' turn. After mocking Ryotaro, he is destroyed by Den-O Liner Form.
The Bloodsucker Imagin is brought to Shōichi Ike by the Molech Imagin to aid him in keeping Zeronos from interfering in Gaoh's affairs, running off once it did his part. The Imagin then proceeds to get back the stolen jewels that Ike secretly sold, succeeding in fulfilling the contract due to the crisis Ryotaro learned of with Urataros and gang. Though he overpowers Sword Form on two occasions, the Bloodsucker Imagin is no match for the newly accessed Climax Form.
The Molech Imagin is one of Gaoh's subordinates, able to use his tongue as a weapon along with mucus-kicks. He is sent to the year 2007 to set up Gaoh's plan. With the Bloodsucker Imagin's aid, the Molech Imagin found an ideal pawn in Hiroshi Katō, setting up a contract, to help the human acquire a necklace, so he can go back in time with Den-O in pursuit. Though destroyed, the Molech Imagin gives Gaoh and the other Imagin the time they need to hijack the DenLiner.
Kai later created another Molech Imagin as part of his massive army of Imagin that face off against Zeronos Zero Form in the present time as part of Kai's plan to ensure the future of the Imagin.
One of Gaoh's minions, the Cobra Imagin almost kills Ryotaro in the Edo era when Sieg takes over and assumes Wing Form to easily dispatch the Imagin.
Kai later creates several more Cobra Imagin as part of his massive army of Imagin that invade both the past and the present as part of Kai's plan to ensure the future of the Imagin.
One of Gaoh's minions, he helped unearthed the GaohLiner by possessing one of the Sanada Ten Braves and having him fire a flaming arrow near the burial site. He also aids his master in fighting the multiple incarnations of Den-O in the Climax Scene. His design is based on the Aztec god Xolotl
who transformed himself into an axolotl
salamander in order to escape a battle.
One of Gaoh's minions, the Gecko Imagin served his master in fighting the multiple incarnations of Den-O in the Climax Scene.
Kai created another Gecko Imagin, one that teamed with another Newt Imagin in overpowering Den-O Plat Form until Climax Form is accessed. Despite help from the Newt Imagin, he is successfully repelled and subsequently defeated in due part to the teamwork of the Tarōs Imagin.
Another Gecko Imagin is amongst the massive army of Imagin that faces off against Zeronos Zero Form in the present time as part of Kai's plan to ensure the future of the Imagin.
One of Gaoh's minions, the Newt Imagin served his master in fighting the multiple incarnations of Den-O in the Climax Scene.
Kai created another Newt Imagin, one that teamed with another Gecko Imagin in overpowering Den-O Plat Form until Climax Form is accessed. Despite help from the Gecko Imagin, he is successfully repelled and subsequently defeated in due part to the teamwork of the Tarōs Imagin.
The Wasp Imagin, able to fire needles from his forehead and uses a rapier, grants Machida's wish to dispose of the evidence of the manslaughter he committed, arriving on the day it occurred. Den-O fought the Imagin in Plat Form, losing until the Taros managed to perfect their teamwork to an extent.
Another Wasp Imagin is amongst the massive army of Imagin that faces off against Zeronos Zero Form in the present time as part of Kai's plan to ensure the future of the Imagin.
The Bluebird Imagin is similar to the Owl Imagin, but can create balls of "fireworks" to throw as weapons. In his first encounter with Sword Form and Deneb, the Bluebird Imagin escapes to fulfill Tōru's wish for his wife to see the fireworks. However, the Bluebird Imagin uses his own fireworks on her. He later wounds Deneb while abducting Tōru, with the contract fulfilled. In the past, the Bluebird Imagin is halted by Sword Form, fighting it until he assumes Climax Form.
Another Bluebird Imagin was amongst the massive army of Imagin that invaded both the past and the present as part of Kai's plan to ensure the Imagins' future.
The Rabbit Imagin resembles the hare-half of the Tortoice Imagin, only in a furry white color scheme and uses sickles as weapons. The Rabbit Imagin enjoyed laughing and had his contract holder hanging for his life, granting the man's wish to "fly". Deneb attempted to fight the Rabbit Imagin off with Yuto reluctant to use up his last Zeronos Card. The Rabbit Imagin then fought Ax Form in the past but was greatly outmatched and hid behind a tree in an attempt to escape the deathblow, his final words being that Den-O won't stop the Imagin forever.
The two Anthopper Imagin differ from previous Imagin as they work for the goal to destroy Den-O, picking Fujishiro as an ideal contract holder. The two are ant-like from the left-half of their upper bodies and the right-halves katydid-like. The older brother is named "Ari", who is the cold-headed brother who wields shovel
-like sword. Its younger brother, "Kirigiris", has a maniacal persona with a lock for taunting his opponents and carries a viola
-like sword. Ari lures Den-O to a railway for their trap, fighting Gun Form at a disadvantage until Kirigiris makes his move and the two quickly overpower Gun Form. However, Yuto knew that it would be a trap and sent Deneb to interfere. This act forces Ari to use Fujishiro to adbuct Airi, leaving a message for Den-O to fight him and his brother at the Mitsuboshi Factory if he wants Airi back alive. Yuto and Deneb go in Ryotaro's place to save Airi, with Yuto reluctant to transform and use his last card. M-Ryotaro, however, manages to make it before he transforms with payback on his mind. Both Den-O Sword Form and Deneb attempt to fight off the two Anthopper brothers until Yuto arrives again and transforms into Zeronos for the last time. Zeronos finishes off Ari after a long battle while Den-O assumes Climax Form and finishes off Kirigiris as payback for beating up Ryutaros.
Ari later returns in the Kamen Rider Den-O Hyper Battle Video. He is amongst the other Imagin exercising along with them until he makes his move around Ryutaros' turn. After mocking Ryotaro, he is destroyed by Den-O Liner Form.
Armed with a pistol, the Kraken Imagin is able to use it as well as his tentacles for weapons.Het is bent on granting its contract holder's wish for a piano. But, much to its dismay, the contract wasn't fully completed. The Kraken Imagin battled Den-O Sword Form, but the fight ended in a draw. The Kraken later succeeded in going back through time, where he fought Den-O Rod Form and was defeated by him. However, the Kraken Imagin reformed into a massive flock of Heavens and a pack of Hells that destroy the entire district, negating the existence of those there, enticing Rod Form's rage as it wiped them all out, restoring everything within time and memory to normal, except for the original contract holder.
The Mole Imagin is another Imagin out to kill Den-O, able to spin and burrow. The serious "Ax-Hand" Mole Imagin completes Yamaguchi's contract, arriving to the day that he lost a karaoke contest. Den-O Ax Form arrives to fight him, only to deal with both him and his two clones: the crazed Claw-Hand and the effeminate Drill-Hand. The Mole Imagin trio proves too much for Ax Form as he suddenly begins losing his sync with Ryotaro. The two clones depart while their big brother remained to finish the job. Yuto arrives and accepts the elder Sakurai's gift and becomes Zeronos again, defeating the Ax-Hand Mole Imagin as he was about to retreat. The surviving brothers later tear a city block apart to lure Den-O and Zeronos back in time to avenge their brother. Sword Form and Zeronos battle the two Imagin until Momotaros loses his sync and Den-O is reverted to Plat Form. The Mole Imagin are nearly successful in defeating Plat Form and Zeronos Vega Form until the Tarōs arrive and give Ryotaro the power to assume Liner Form. The Mole Imagin are no match for Liner Form as Ryotaro defeats them with his newfound power.
The Leo Imagin is Kai's subordinate and uses his three to kill Momotaros, Urataros, and Kintaros in the Time Station while he handles the task of killing R-Ryotaro upon fulfilling his part in Kai's plan. But Yuto drives the Imagin away with his attack and Momotaros, Urataros, and Kintaros use their versions of Den-O's finishers to destroy his Leo Soldiers. When Den-O Sword Form appears, the Leo Imagin travels back in time through Kai with Den-O in pursuit. But before the fight could start, Momotaros loses his sync with Den-O, leaving Ryotaro to assume Liner Form and fight the Leo Imagin, using the DenKamen Sword's RyuGun Mode to destroy him.
The Panda Rabbit Imagin, a light-weight version of the Rabbit Imagin with a sword, finished his contract of getting its contract holder to the company he wanted to work at, nearly killing him in the process. He was about to go back into time, but got cut off by M-Ryotaro, who decided to use the weakling for Ryotaro to study his fighting moves as Kai looked on from afar. Though Sword Form succeeds in destroying the Imagin, Ryotaro travels back to time to understand the reason why the evil Imagin desire to go back to the past.
The two Snail Imagin serve Kai. Under Kai's orders, the female Snail Imagin, a sadist who carries a whip and babies her opponents, uses the teacher of Yuto Sakurai to go back into Yuto's past and take out the Yuto of that time, thus negating Yuto from the present timeline. Ryotaro refuses to accept this loss and assumes Liner Form to battle the female Snail Imagin, weakening her with the DenKamen Sword's other modes before finishing her off with MomoSword mode. In spite of her death, she succeeds in ridding her master of Sakurai by eliminating Yuto as it seemed.
The male Snail Imagin, who uses a gun as his weapon, is later sent by Kai to abduct Hana to force Ryotaro to consider Kai's offer to aid him in ensuring an ideal future. But when Ryotaro refuses, the Snail Imagin attempts to kill him when Yuto manages to return to existence, forcing Kai to send the male Snail Imagin back into time to kill Sakurai. But this time, the Snail Imagin becomes the first to fall to Zeronos' new Zero Form.
The Oct Imagin is a red-colored version of the Kraken Imagin with suction-cup trimmings on its body. He intends to grant Shōko's wish by getting Yuto, even though the Imagin has to bring him alive for the contract to be completed. The Oct Imagin's arsenal includes ink smoke bombs and use of its tentacles to take control of any machines or inanimate object, turning the DenBird and a truck against Den-O. But once the Oct Imagin makes it to the past, he can now kill Yuto without any penalty, using the ZeroGasher against Zeronos. Although destroyed by the combined effort of Liner Form and Zero Form, a piece of his tentacle enters the AuraLiner used to kill it, turning it into a Hydra-like monster that the KingLiner destroys.
Carrying a ball and chain as his weapon and able to roll up into a ball, the pain-mongering Armadillo Imagin completes his contract to "cut" Ōzaki and goes back into the time when Ōzaki was recruited by the Shirakaku. The Armdillo Imagin overpowers both Zeronos Zero Form and Den-O Liner Form until the DenLiner provides the two with an escape from the losing fight. However, the Imagin manages to stow onto the DenLiner and arrives at the Junction Point, seeing it much fun to smash the station. But Urataros and Kintaros hold him off with Ryutaros supporting them until both Momotaros and Ryotaro arrive. Each of the Tarōs fight the Imagin in their respective Den-O forms before combining into Climax Form to finish him off, their teamwork overpowering his strength.
The Albinoleo Imagin is Kai's subordinate, a stronger white version of the Leo Imagin. Sent to kill Airi, he easily overpowers Den-O Liner Form and Zeronos Zero Form until Sakurai arrives, turning the tables. After being pummeled by the trio of Riders, the two Kamen Riders Zeronos leave the Albinoleo Imagin open for Liner Form's DenKamen Slash, which destroys him.
Using a cane as his weapon, the Snowman Imagin fulfills his contract with the Storekeeper, emptying out his stock by giving them to everyone as presents. Den-O Sword Form fails to stop the Imagin from going back in time to find the Ryotaro of that time. But Liner Form is able to destroy the Snowman Imagin when he attempts to outrun the final blow.
The Death Imagin is the leading force of Kai's Imagin army, more of a manifestation of Kai's will and remaining memories rather than an everyday Imagin, being a separate entity while still an integral part of Kai himself. Though he overpowers both Den-O Liner Form and Zeronos Zero Form, the Death Imagin is eventually destroyed by Den-O Sword Form and the combined energies of all the good Imagin, killing Kai as a result.
The Pink Rabbit Imagin is one of Negataros's Imagin followers, accompanying the Horse Fangire as they fight Den-O and the Tarōs, being destroyed by Ryutaros.
The Clown Imagin is one of Negataros's Imagin followers.
The Ghost Imagin is one of Shiro's Imagin followers and possesses Ryotaro, having him assume Kamen Rider Yuuki's Skull Form. While possessing Ryotaro, Ryotaro is referred to as , with the A standing for "Another".
The Phantom Imagin is one of Shiro's Imagin followers, resembling a greenish version of the male Snail Imagin.
The Shadow Imagin is one of Shiro's Imagin followers, bearing resemblance to the Anthopper Imagin. Though destroyed by New Den-O, he is revived by Shiro in the epic battle against the Riders.
The Piggies Imagin has two faces on his shoulder pads, each of which has his own separate personality from the actual head and are referred to as his younger brothers. When Hiroshi Kikuchi makes a contract so he can prove himself to be a hero to Airi Nogami, the Piggies Imagin orchestrates the hijacking of the DenLiner to get Den-O out of the way. However, Yuto's interference forces the Imagin to change plans to complete his contract with Kikuchi. However, once the Piggies Imagin feels the contract is complete, Kikuchi refuses to accept it as he was not able to play the part of the hero, making the Piggies Imagin unable to travel back in time. After being knocked away by Zeronos, the Piggies Imagin faces Den-O before he assumes Climax Force and is cut into many pieces.
The Mantis Imagin is a female masochist Imagin with the ability to spray a poisonous purple gas and uses twin rapiers as her weapons. Her goal is to allow a Miku Uehara from the near future to see her grandmother for the last time, as in her timeline she kept putting off celebrating her birthday with her grandmother up until her grandmother died before it could happen. Before the Mantis Imagin can complete her contract and go back in time, New Den-O defeats her.

Background
The Imagin are beings from a possible future who have lost their physical forms due to an event that erases their timeline, becoming dependent on existing through the memories of humans, though this event and timeline are not well explained. Led by Kai, they arrive to the year 2007 to find weak-hearted humans and through them go back in time to find the , and destroy him so their future can become a reality again. Imagin possess humans upon forging a contract, fashioning a physical form by searching through the host's memory for figures found in folklore and myths. In some cases of Imagin possession, a person's eyes change color to that of the Imagin, the hair altered into style with a streak of it also changed to the color of the Imagin. In some cases, even the host's attire changes to reflect the Imagin's personality. There are also rare Imagin showing the ability to split into two or more entities that can survive independent of each other. Normally, when this happens, there is a clear difference between them, ether physical or they'll have completely different personalities. Unlike most Kamen Rider villains, who normally have greedy or selfish motives for their actions, the Imagin attack the past due to self preservation, wanting to keep their race alive.The hosts, recognized by the sands of time spilling from their bodies, are offered a single wish by the Imagin. In exchange, the Imagin is able to dive into the most treasured moment of the person's past. As displayed, however, the host must remember making the contract for the Imagin to successfully travel to the past. Additionally, due to the greatly delicate nature of the contract, if the contract holder forgets or dies before the contract is completed, the Imagin bound to him or her would fade out of existence. Opening the human like a door, a portal is revealed that leads to the appropriate time, severing their ties to the human in the process. From there, the Imagin takes over a host's body or simply manifests itself in its physical form and begins causing massive chaos. In turn, due to the laws of time, everything and everyone destroyed in the past no longer exists in the present. However, as Ryotaro learned in time, the restoration of these things rely on just being remembered. Also, if an alteration to the past prevents the contract from ever being made in the first place, the damage will be negated completely due to it never having happened, as was the case with the Ivy Imagin. However, it appears that should the Imagin have been destroyed in the past, its destruction is not undone.
Singularity Points
A in Kamen Rider Den-O is a human who has the ability to exist independent of time itself, and be unaffected by changes in their own past. This ability also allows them to suppress an Imagin's will when it takes over their body and is not tempted by the free wish an Imagin can grant. Because of this, the Imagin contracted to Singularity Points are usually unable to take a physical form in the present time, and directly possess their Singularity Point, instead. They usually reside within time itself and when they are not possessing their Singularity Point, they stay on some sort of Train of Time, such as the DenLiner or the ZeroLiner. The Singularity Points also have the ability to become Kamen Riders, and the Imagin that possess them lend their abilities in combat when called upon. In other instances, the Imagin use their Singularity Point's body as they wish when the Singularity Point loses consciousness. As long as the Singularity Point is conscious, he can expel the Imagin from his body and send it back to the Train of Time that he uses as a Kamen Rider.Den-O's Imagin

can summon at least four Imagin. Each of these Imagin gives Den-O their power when they are called upon with each form suiting to their fighting style. These Imagin are collectively known as the due to their namesakes. When not possessing Ryotaro, the Tarōs spend their time in the DenLiner's dining car. However, they are also able to enter physical time and space by possessing vacant forms, such as full-body costumes, although this leaves them physically unstable. The Imagin have also proven capable of possessing Ryotaro all at once after the creation of Climax Form, but outside of their transformed state, this 4-way possession is dangerously unstable and physically stressful for Ryotaro. Due to their nature as Imagin, they can sense evil Imagin near Ryotaro's vicinity and alert him likewise. In addition to powering up Den-O, the four are each armed with a weapon and each are able to perform their form of Den-O's finishing attack in their normal state.
When the Junction Point starts to form, the Tarōs start to lose sync with Ryotaro and are unable to possess him when he travels to the past. To continue to assist him, they create the DenKamen Sword, which allows him to channel their power without direct possession. Though Ryotaro is curious of these recent events, the four are reluctant to explain that it meant the future they came from is being erased, causing their kind to cease to exist as the result of their battle with the evil Imagin. In spite of it, however, the Tarōs intend to keep fighting to the end, gaining physical form within normal space-time as a result of each Imagin granting Ryotaro's wish that they fight together until the end. When the time does come and they fade away, it is revealed that the memories they made with Ryotaro have created a time lag, allowing them to maintain their existence as they take leave on the DenLiner.
Soon after, the four become members of the , a newly-made law-enforcement group to prevent changes in the past by Imagin who also survived the Junction Point and form an army under Negataros. Because of their status as Imagin who fulfilled their contracts, the Tarōs are able to possess anyone as seen with Yuto, Wataru Kurenai

-like in appearance, with his weapon being the , a rod with hexagonal blades at each end. Furthermore, Urataros was well-aware of Ryotaro being a Singularity Point, making his contract to him on purpose—though he says it is to evade the loneliness of being outside time, Hana later debunks this entirely. When he possesses Ryotaro, he usually states the words, .
He is also aware of the evil Imagin planning to destroy time, but simply does not want to commit it as in spite of his cool exterior, there's indication that he's somewhat of a coward and lies just for self preservation. Urataros is a casanova with a very convincing personality, owning the ability to convince almost anyone by speaking to them, with Ryotaro the only one who trusts him and lets him stay as he sees he has a good heart. Urataros, however, later says that he lies simply for the sake of lying ("One lie is more interesting than a thousand truths"), and seems quite irritated that Ryotaro is "trivializing his lies."
While Momotaros gets Ryotaro in trouble through reckless methods, Urataros puts Ryotaro in conflicting situations when he goes around wooing multiple women. Despite these negative traits, along with his occasional fights with Momotaros, Urataros does show genuine concern for Ryotaro's well being the best speaker of the Taros, possessing Ryotaro simply to get information out of someone, or to talk his way out of something. He is also useful in situations that require patience, something Momotaros severely lacks.

Seeing the good side of Kintaros when he protects Masaru from the Rhino Imagin and being mortally wounded in doing so, Ryotaro allows Kintaros to enter a contract with him, saving the Imagin's life. Unlike the others, who had (at least partly) selfish intentions for assisting Ryotaro, Kintaros's motives for helping him are noble from the start, having a desire to repay Ryotaro for saving his life, stating so on several occasions.

named the . Though he is the last Imagin to appear, Ryutaros initially possessed Ryotaro the moment that Urataros did, and simply hid himself from the others. Ryutaros reveals himself in his form when he is attracted by Naomi's coffee inside the DenLiner. Ryutaros is most childish in personality with a love for drawing and animals. Ryutaros also appears to enjoy break dancing, to the point to that it is incorporated into his flashy fighting style. His personality is one of a fun-loving dancer/disc jockey and is the most dominant Den-O has. This recklessness also causes the most collateral damage, as he fires his gun aimlessly.
When he possesses Ryotaro, he first asks followed by . He has the ability to control people simply by snapping his fingers. This tactic works with summoning the Machine DenBird as well. Originally, Ryutaros possesses Ryotaro after being promised the title of become the DenLiner's conductor by Kai, who also gives the Imagin a ticket, on the condition that he destroys Ryotaro.
However, because he does not wish for Airi to cry, Ryutaros decides not to destroy Ryotaro. The only individual he will listen to is Airi, whom he affectionately calls . Because he knows that Airi has loved Yuto Sakurai, and from faulty advice on love from Kintaros, he becomes jealous of Yuto and wishes to show that he is stronger than him. But when Kai takes matters in his own hands in killing him, combined with realizing how he and Airi can not to be together, Ryutaros matures a bit to cope with fading away while eventually mustering courage to fight in the final battle against Kai.
