Kamen Rider Fourze/Characters/Zodiarts

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


A Zodiarts is created when an ordinary human uses a Zodiarts Switch to create an avatar body of Cosmic Energy, transforming and giving him/her incredible powers. The human (known as a "Switcher") can use the Switch to transform freely between his/her normal and Zodiarts forms as many times as he/she wishes.

After a certain number of uses (catalyzed by the user's rage and negativity) the Zodiarts Switch will mutate into a form known as "Last One". If the Switcher uses the Zodiarts Switch after this happens, their human body is ejected by the Zodiarts body upon transformation. While this increases the Zodiarts's power, it carries a risk that the Switcher will not be able to turn back to normal.


General Tropes

  • Animal Motifs: Sometimes done with Zodiarts based on constellations that aren't animals. Pyxis (also known as the Mariners' Compass) is specifically bug-like, and even Altar (self-explanatory) has bug-like mandibles.
    • Perseus has a wolf motif to him. Medusa's head (re: the original legend) is even incorporated into the design so he's got a bunch of snakes as well.
    • Libra has antennae and a smaller mantle under his cloak that make him look like a cockroach.
    • Virgo invokes this with deliberately bird-like wings that even shed feathers.
    • Inverted with the Dragon Zodiarts - the dragon bits are shifted towards the arms, making him look nondescript.
    • Aquarius is the first to knowingly avert this. Though she does look slightly like a jellyfish.
    • Taurus, of course, looks similar to a giant bull.
  • Deadly Upgrade: Kengo implies that when using a Zodiarts Switch in its "Last One" stage, the user may not be able to turn back. Considering their soul effectively leaves their body in a coma to control the Zodiarts body, he probably has a point.
    • Gentaro mentions in Episode 8 that Miura (Orion Zodiarts) is still in hospital. As of episode 13, he's well, but not going back to Amanogawa due to withdrawal symptoms.
    • Episode 14 reveals that when a former switcher is given a new switch, it immediately enters Last One state.
    • Episode 15 reveals that a Zodiarts can surpass the Last One state, which could lead to them becoming a Horoscope. And Episode 22 revealed the first student to become a Horoscope.
  • Drunk on the Dark Side: The users tend to become more irrational and insane as they continue to use the Switch. This is undone with its destruction, however.
  • Evil Feels Good: A frequent consequence of using a Zodiarts Switch. At least one former Switcher - Miura (Orion Zodiarts) - develops withdrawal symptoms after his Switch is destroyed.
  • From Nobody to Nightmare: Invoked in the same way as Kamen Rider Double.
  • Made of Explodium: The released Cosmic Energy could take out an entire city block or more, so Fourze has to be careful when using a Limit Break.
    • Of note, defeating the Zodiarts itself doesn't destroy it completely - the only way to take it out for good is to destroy the Switch by turning it off once and for all.
  • Mono-Gender Monsters: Averted in a fashion similar to Kamen Rider Double. Like the Dopants, uncovering the true identity of a Zodiarts is part of the story. To add to the mystery, the Zodairts refrain from speaking, have their voices digitally distorted, or a separate voice actor is used until their identity is revealed.
  • Magic and Powers
    • Personality Powers: The Zodiarts evolve in reaction to their host's abilities and desires. For example the Unicorn Zodiarts gained a sword due to Nitta's fencing ability and Hound fit Teruhiko's fondness for chains as its main weapon.
  • Monster of the Week
  • One-Winged Angel: Some of the "Last One" transformations.
    • Ramped Up to Eleven in #15. What is beyond Last One? The evolution to a Horoscope-level Zodiarts!
    • Taken beyond eleven in #14 as Horoscopes have the ability go Supernova turning them into giant monsters!
  • Shout-Out
  • Sorting Algorithm of Evil: the latter half of the series eschews normal Zodiarts to have actual Horoscopes as MOTWs, starting with Aries in #31.
  • Stock Super Powers
  • Super-Powered Evil Side: The Zodiarts are pretty much extensions of their anger and wrath, but sometimes they can get even worse. Case in point: the case of Cygnus Zodiarts who was, in fact, a student's Split Personality.
  • Weapon of Choice: Some of the Zodiarts have one. These are: Orion, Monoceros, Altar, Perseus (regular) Libra, Virgo and Aries (Horoscopes)
  • Villainous Breakdown: Apparently the most effective way to accelerate a Switch's evolution to its "Last One" stage.

The Red-Eyed Man | Mitsuaki Gamou

Live Actor: Shingo Tsurumi

Founder of Amanogawa High School, chairman of the board, and former scientist and pioneer of lunar research with connections to NASA and the Russian Federal Space Agency.

He is secretly the mastermind behind the Zodiarts, and has been distributing the Zodiarts Switches amongst the students of his school for reasons unknown. His eyes often glow with an unearthly red light, and he possesses the ability to wield Cosmic Energy in a raw form. As of #34, Libra has noticed that Gamou has the potential to become the Sagittarius Zodiarts.

  • Affably Evil: Is the Big Bad, but seems to be a geuninely nice guy.
  • Ambiguously Human: He looks human, but the red eyes that light up and apparent control over the Zodiarts implies he's not.
    • He is also strong with the Cosmic Energy, as he used a raw form of it (in the form of a star) and infused Sonoda-sensei with it as so she can go One-Winged Angel.
    • Well, the jury is still out on the subject of his humanity, but as it turns out, he is a Horoscope. Sagittarius, to be precise.
  • Big Bad: Appears to be the ringleader of the Zodiarts thus far.
  • Evil Overlooker: the newest version of the OP (#35 on) shows him alongside the Horoscopes in this manner.
  • Evil Teacher
  • Hidden Agenda Villain: There has been little explanation as to why he is distributing the Zodiarts Switches. So far, it is hinted that he is attempting to awaken a greater power by distributing the Switches to children, who are more charged with emotion and thus more likely to evolve the Switches beyond their original specifications.
  • It Amused Me: Hayami mentions that this is why there was a "bonus question" in the astronaut qualification test.

"He was having a little fun."

Horoscopes

A group of twelve Zodiarts, each representing a constellation of the Western Zodiac. They are direct subordinates to Gamou, giving out Zodiarts Switches on his behalf, and are notably stronger than regular Zodiarts. A Horoscope can be identified by the distinctive black robes they wear, which act as Power Limiters to their true potential.

A Horoscope is created when a Zodiarts exceeds the Last One stage of the Zodiarts Switch, reabsorbing its human body and evolving into an even more powerful form. Only certain talented individuals have the potential to become a Horoscope; thus, it is the Horoscopes' mission to find and awaken all twelve of their kin.

Scorpion Zodiarts/Sarina Sonoda

Voice Actor: Eiji Takemoto

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Scorpius, the Scorpion. It is the first of the Horoscopes to be seen, and distributes Zodiarts Switches to those who wish to gain revenge. In battle, it uses powerful kickboxing attacks.

Libra Zodiarts/Kouhei Hayami

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Libra, the Scales of Justice. The second of the Horoscopes to appear, it possesses various powers of illusion and fights using a Khakkhara shakujo. It only distributes Zodiarts Switches to those it feels have the potential to become Horoscopes, and personally mentors them to reach that point.

  • The Bad Guy Wins: Succeeded in destroying the four stations in Kyoto and closing its Hole, which was the mission he was sent on, despite being defeated by Fourze. On top of this, he achieves his Supernova in the process.
  • Bare-Fisted Monk: It should be noted that he seldom actually uses that staff when he fights in one of his disguises.
  • Dragon with an Agenda: mentions how he wants Taurus for his own, undisclosed-as-of-yet plans.
  • Evil Genius: Amongst the Horoscopes, this seems to be his role. He is more manipulative and cunning than his comrades, and has found himself in the role of distributing Zodiarts as part of Gamou's master plan.
  • Evil Mentor: How he goes about dealing with his prospect Zodiarts and Scorpion. The Zodiarts he "mentors" even refer to him as "Master Libra".
  • The Force Is Strong with This One: His supernova form allows him to detect those with the potential to become Horoscopes.
  • Foreshadowing: in #37, he thinks that the astronaut exam is a good way to spot new potential Horoscopes. He got his wish at the end of #38, finding Taurus among the finalists.
  • Kick the Son of a Bitch: Tricking Virgo into sending Cancer to the Dark Nebula. While he was doing it for his own interests, there's little doubt Cancer deserved it.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Right after Makise is dispatched, this guy sealed the deal on the Cerebus Syndrome.
  • Manipulative Bastard
  • Master of Illusion: He possesses several illusory powers, most notably the ability to make itself and others look like other people. At one point he even fights Fourze while disguised as a second Fourze.
  • Master of None: He doesn't have a lot of fighting capability and his illusion powers are only good for distraction.
  • Pragmatic Villainy: really takes his role as a mentor to prospective Zodiarts seriously, but, of course, this only ties into the Horoscopes' goal of completing their roster. His abhorrence towards Cancer also counts, since he believes the latter to be too much of a loose cannon anyway.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The blue to Kijima/Cancer and Yamada/Aries' red.
  • Shock and Awe: Can deliver a blast of electricity from his forehead. Said electricity is even able to brainwash Zodiarts, as seen with Perseus.
  • Simple Staff: Wields one that resembles a Khakkhara shakujo, complete with jingling rings.
  • Smug Snake/Smug Super: It's becoming clear that he gives himself too much credit for being "Master Libra" and thinks he's more important within the Horoscopes than he really is. Overlaps with his frustrations that he's turning into The Unfavourite, while Gamou gives Cancer more leniency.
    • He starts to become even more smug after obtaining the Eye of Laplace, not hesitating to brag about it in Leo's face.
  • Villain Exit Stage Left: Is able to teleport, leaving behind a blue nebula like light when he does so.
  • Villainous Breakdown: When he realizes that he's next on the You Have Failed Me... chopping block, he doesn't take it well and instead begs like a dog to be spared. This triggers his Supernova transformation, allowing him to perceive who is or can become a Horoscope, an ability that causes Gamou to (understandably) spare him.

Virgo Zodiarts

Voice Actress: Rie Tanaka

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Virgo, the Virgin Goddess Astraea. The third Horoscope to appear, she has various powers of spatial manipulation, such as the power to imprison people in a Pocket Dimension called the Dark Nebula. She first appears fighting against Fourze in Movie War Megamax.

Cancer Zodiarts/Natsuji Kijima

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Cancer, the Crab sent to distract Heracles from his tasks. The fourth Horoscope to appear, it possesses an incredibly tough skin that makes it hard to damage and sharp pincers that can slice through anything. It evolved from the Pegasus Zodiarts.

  • Absurdly Sharp Claw: His open claw is even capable of cutting through Fourze's shield, which is made of a super-durable metal called Astorium.
  • And I Must Scream: Libra and Virgo handle his punishment-Libra transforms him into the policeman that hounded Gamou in #27, and then tricks Virgo into sending him into the Dark Nebula, with his fan left behind.
  • Dangerously Genre Savvy: In #27, he rushes to the library and uses his new water abilities to hide so he can see who Kamen Rider Meteor really was. It works.
  • Deadly Game: How he hands out Zodiarts Switches. He calls it "Open Mic From Hell". You make him laugh? Congratulations, you get a Zodiarts Switch! You fail? Say goodbye to your soul.
  • Devil in Plain Sight
  • Faux Affably Evil: The fact he's polite and cheery just makes him more disturbing.
  • For the Evulz: How he approaches students with Switches. He basically asks if they want to have fun.
    • Made even worse in #27. He takes a couple of athletes' souls away because none of them could make him laugh. And those that could were given a Zodiarts Switch instead!
  • Fireballs: One of his abilities.
  • Giant Enemy Crab: Moreso when Supernova form kicks in (#27).
  • Ham-to-Ham Combat: One-sided, actually. During his fight with Meteor in #27, he would not shut up.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: He would free the souls of the KRC he imprisoned should one make him laugh. Ryusei engages him in battle and the sight is so hilarious to Kijima that he laughs...which is what Ryusei wanted him to do.
    • Another thing that really bites him in the ass was keeping the identity to Meteor to himself. If he had explained it to Gamou instead of promising to tell it later, he'd probably would still be a Zodiarts.
  • Irony: Cancer was supposed to pinch at the toes of Hercules while Hercules battled the Hydra. Hercules squashed him pretty easily. Here, Cancer's been really hard to destroy due to his powerful armor and the fact that he runs away just before Gentaro puts the finishing blow on him.
  • Kill It with Fire: Thus far the only thing capable of damaging him.
    • Until #28, that is.
  • Laughably Evil: Seems to be an intentional tactic of his to get under his opponents skin and confuse them. Makes him even more disturbing when he does stuff like steal people's souls.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Fast, strong and takes most hits without a scratch on his shell.
  • Making a Splash: Another of his abilities.
  • One-Winged Angel: Cancer Nova. Worse? He managed to reach it without help!
  • Psycho for Hire: Unlike the other Horoscopes who seem to be Well Intentioned Extremists, Cancer is just a Sociopath who enjoys what he does.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The red to Hayame/Libra's blue. (One of two)
  • Sixth Ranger: His role amongst the Horoscopes. The first to surpass Last One and become a Horoscope since Sonoda/Scorpio, he was also responsible for dishing out The Worf Effect for a good while before his enemies one-upped him.
  • Shadow Archetype: As stated before, Cancer is one to Ryusei/Meteor. This was even Lampshaded by Cancer in 27. Both are liars, hiding a secret from everyone. At first, Kijima was hiding his identity as the Pegasus Zodiarts, though he did drop that act when he became Horoscopes. Ryusei, meanwhile, has been hiding his identity as Meteor. The parallels between the two of them are drawn constantly, with Ryusei even being the one to discover Kijima's identity as a Zodiarts, and Kijima being the first person to learn of Ryusei's secret identity.
  • Super Toughness: And how! He's basically immune to everything that Fourze can throw at him, except for prolonged exposure to fire and Kamen Rider Meteor's Finishing Move.
  • We Can Rule Together: Cancer makes this offer to Ryusei in exchange for keeping mum about his secret identity.
  • Xanatos Gambit: His way of handing out Zodiarts Switches. They make him laugh? He hands out a Switch and a Zodiarts is let loose, continuing his mission. They don't? He gets their soul and becomes more powerful.
  • You Fight Like a Cow: mostly in his battle against Meteor.
  • Your Soul Is Mine: Type A. In #27, he was able to collect souls that look like rings and then snip them with his pincer, sending their owners into comas in the process. And he does it on the Kamen Rider Club in #28, almost snipping off Tomoko's had Ryusei not come in in time.

Aries Zodiarts/Tatsumori Yamada

Live Actor: Kazuma Kawahara

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Aries, the Ram with the Golden Fleece. The fifth Horoscope to appear, he can control the mental facilities that regulate sleep, tranquillising those who resist his will. His alter-ego is Tatsumori Yamada, a transferee to Subaruboshi from Amanogawa.

  • Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: Well of course the Zodiarts that controls sleep would be the one that's a sheep.
  • Convenient Coma: He can induce this upon anyone else. Ironically, he's now in one of these.
  • Deal with the Devil: Gave one of these to Ryusei to save Jiro, in the cost of killing Fourze. He then paid his end of the bargain and revived Jiro.
  • Death by Irony: Almost. He's last seen lying comatose in hospital after losing his Switch.
  • The Dreaded: Among Subaruboshi students.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: in #30, after Meteor's brief altercation with Libra at Subaroboshi, someone in an Amanogawa uniform ominously walks past.
  • Expy: He's an amoral AGHS student who uses his Zodiarts Switch to torment others For the Evulz and is actively opposing Hayami - just like Kijima, the recently departed Cancer Zodiarts.
  • Irony: Ryusei transfers to Amanogawa in search for Aries, except that Aries was the student who transferred to Subaruboshi in his place.
  • Killer Rabbit: Tatsumoi supposedly transcended the Lepus Zodiarts.
  • Karmic Coma: After being defeated by Fourze, he is shown in the hospital in a coma, just like he did to his victims.
  • Meaningful Name: The kanji in his name mean "dragon" and "guard/protect." In Greek mythology, Aries was a sacred golden ram whose fleece was guarded by a dragon.
  • Monster of the Week: The other Horoscopes have been very dangerous, long-term threats; Yamada, on the other hand, was essentially this, with some backstory relevance for Ryusei.
  • New Transfer Student: To Subaruboshi High.
  • Pet the Dog: Bastard that he is, it's still worth mentioning that he doesn't back out of his arrangement with Ryusei. Mind you, it goes horribly wrong, but he did heal Jiro.
    • Ryusei had to keep his end of the bargain first, so it really comes as a surprise that, Aries still goes along, when you'd actually expect someone like him to say something along the lines of I Lied.
  • Power-Up Letdown: He attempts to use Supernova against Fourze Cosmic States, but since he hasn't earned it himself or been granted it by Gamou, all that happens is his horns get bigger.
  • Red Baron: He's known as the "Apostle of Sleep".
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: The red to Hayame/Libra's Blue. (One of two)
  • Remember the New Guy?: Flashbacks to the first episode show that he was there even though he's only actually introduced much later. He was also mentioned in Episode 17 (Ryusei's debut) when both Gentaro and Sonoda note that Yamada was gone.
  • Simple Staff: His main weapon.
  • Sixth Ranger/SixthRangerTraitor: His role amongst the Zodiarts. Though when he mouths off to Libra and decides to do whatever he feels like, you could consider it as him "betraying" Libra.
  • Squishy Wizard: His staff is pretty much his only means of one-upping his opponents. Once Fourze got Cosmic States, he went bye bye.
  • Standard Status Effects: Has the power to put anyone he touches with his staff to sleep or shut down the use of the Astroswitches temporarily.
  • Tyrant Takes the Helm: He took over Subaroboshi with an iron fist.

Leo Zodiarts/Kou Tatsugami

Live Actor: Kazutoshi Yokoyama

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Leo, the Nemean Lion. The sixth Horoscope to be formally introduced in the television series, although he is featured in the opening title sequence and made a few non-speaking cameos beforehand. He is a proficient and deadly fighter. His true identity is Kou Tatsugami, Gamou's bodyguard.

  • All Your Powers Combined: As of Episode #36, he has been entrusted the Switches of three past Horoscopes by Gamou for safe-keeping. Now he can use them to take the forms of past Horoscopes, including Scorpio, Aries, and Cancer.
  • Badass: In his first scene alone he tosses the walnuts he carried in his hand into the air, beat down members of Foundation X demanding Gamou to hand over his research papers, put one in an arm hold and caught those walnuts into his hands.
  • Berserk Button: He flipped after Gentarou approached Gamou without a regard for the latter's position. Gamou even held him back to make him keep his cool, but that didn't stop Leo from delivering a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown to Fourze unprovoked later.
  • The Brute: Compared to its fellow Horoscopes Zodiarts. He's also the naturally tallest of the bunch.
  • Character Tics: Manipulates walnuts in his hands, similar to Baoding Balls.
  • Death Glare
  • Dragon Their Feet: As of Episode 32, we've seen Fourze gain five powerups, three Horoscopes have been lost, yet this guy has yet to act in any fashion. Justified with his role as Gamou's bodyguard, instead of handing out Switches like Scorpio, Libra, and Cancer, an executioner like Virgo, or just fooling around like Aries.
  • Dragon with an Agenda: Leo hints at looking for a McGuffin called the "Core Switch", and mentions that it will surprise even Gamou, indicating that the latter has no idea.
  • Early-Bird Cameo
  • The Juggernaut: Thus far has been pretty much unstoppable to everything thrown at him, including both Fourze Cosmic States and Meteor Storm, and having the power to go with it.
  • King of Beasts
  • Make Me Wanna Shout: Has a powerful roar that can cause shockwaves.
  • Meaningful Name: His family name sounds similar to tategami, meaning "mane", while the kanji used for his first name means "roar."
  • Mighty Glacier: Tall, slow and powerful. He can pummel both Cosmic States Fourze and Meteor Storm without breaking a sweat!
  • More Teeth Than the Osmond Family
  • Wolverine Claws
  • You Have Failed Me...: tells Libra that should he fail the Kyoto mission, it will also be his last.

Capricorn Zodiarts/Toujiro Goto

Live Actor: Ryousuke Kawamura

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Capricorn, the sea goat. The seventh Horoscope to appear, he can freely manipulate sound to his advantage. He's a student who turns out to be an old friend of JK's and wishes to reform their old band to become superstars.

  • Anime Hair: His is all spiked up.
  • Anti-Villain: Type IV. He's the least malevolent of any of the Zodiarts so far, and really just wants to play music rather than hurt anyone. He initially only fights because Fourze attacks him first.
  • Cut Lex Luthor a Check: He becomes Capricorn so he can further his music career.
  • Dreadful Musician: In human form, but not in Zodiarts form.
  • Laser-Guided Amnesia: After being defeated by Fourze, his memory was wiped by Gamou.
  • Magic Music: Can create Music Staffs to entrap his opponent, or entrance them.
  • Meaningful Name: "Goto" sounds like the Japanese pronunciation of "goat".
    • Shout-Out Theme Naming: And it's turned into his old nickname by shortening further till it's read roughly like GOD, antagonist organisation to Kamen Rider X - which JK was named for.
  • Monster of the Week: Capricorn was treated similarly to Aries. Instead of being a general like Leo, Libra, and Virgo, he was just a Monster of the Week with backstory relevance for JK.
  • Musical Assassin
  • The Power of Rock
  • Spoony Bard: His only weapon is his guitar which is only used to blast a Musical Staff to ensnare his opponent. He doesn't use the music to brainwash his opponents (Ryusei notes that both he and Gentaro are immune to his song due to being shielded by Cosmic Energy) nor actually use it to his advantage (say, make the rave zombies to shield him so that the Riders can't touch him), and once Cosmic States captured the music he played, he had nothing left in his arsenal.
    • It's this even outside of battle; when he plays his guitar the power of the Zodiarts Switches intensify. Moreover, the only reason he gets the power of Supernova was so that he can use it to see whether or not Gamou can sense the poewr of the legendary Core Switch.
  • Squishy Wizard: Like Aries above, he only uses his guitar as a means of attacking. Once Fourze ensnared him with his own music, he was done for.
  • We Used to Be Friends: With JK.
  • Villainous Breakdown: After seeing Gentaro both steal the show and turn JK against him, he really loses it. Though this may have something to do with the Supernova energy Gamou put in him.

Aquarius Zodiarts/Erin Suda

The Zodiarts representing the constellation Aquarius, the Water-Bearer. The eighth Horoscope to appear, she is able to use Cosmic Energy to heal herself. Erin is revealed to want to pass the mock space exam to become an astronaut like her father and will not let anyone stand in her way...not even Genki Girl and her rival, Yuki Jojima.

  • The Ace: Transfer student from America who is smart, athletic and super-hot as JK puts it. This is even lampshaded with the letter A on her chest in regards with the exam.
  • Anti-Villain: Another Type IV. Her first order of business as a Zodiarts was to heal Kengo, and she's only hostile to Gentaro because of his friendship with Yuki.
    • After learning what really happened with the robot test, she does the Secret Handshake with Yuki and asks for a battle with Fourze. She then thanks Gentaro before Virgo retrieves her and erases her memory.
  • Book Ends: her last scene shows her "first" meeting with Gentaro and Yuki in front of the JAXA monument, just like when she was first introduced.
  • But Not Too Foreign
  • Dark Chick: Apart from Virgo, she is the only Horoscope that is obviously female in appearance.
  • Death Glare: Has this down to a fine art.
  • Expy: Let's see. Serious Business about something? Check. Hates Genki Girl Yuki but doesn't have qualms with everyone else? Check. Has a Pet the Dog moment despite being a Zodiarts? Definitely. Gets talked to by Gentaro and immediately has a My God, What Have I Done? moment shortly thereafter? Yep. She's pretty much the Horoscope version of Motoyama (Perseus Zodiarts).
  • Foil: To Yuki. Where Yuki is hyperactive, loud and energetic, Erin is calm, quiet and still. Where Yuki believes in praying to the "Rocket Gods" and miracles, Erin believes in using skill to get what a person wants. Where Yuki tries to lift everyone spirits by being goofy, Erin tries to shut it down by being reasonable.
  • Go Out with a Smile: After her fight with Fourze she gives one...and then Virgo Zodiarts teleports her to Gamou so her memory will be erased.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: To make a long story short, she despises Yuki Jojima. More specifically, she hates Yuki Jojima due to the resemblance of a person who took her father's spot in going into space.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Anything that comes out of Yuki's mouth makes her panic and crazy; she goes overboard when she assumes Yuki hid the camera parts for the team's robot to make her look bad.
  • Healing Factor: Her water jugs on her shoulders can heal anything...even a Cosmic States Limit Break!
  • I Gave My Word: She made a promise to Gentaro that she'd give a fair fight to Yuki during the exams.
  • Laser-Guided Amnesia: Just like Goto prior, she has this too. However, the ending of #38 ends on a positive note with her excitably interacting with Gentaro and Yuki.
  • Making a Splash: Except her water gimmick acts as a Healing Factor, and she attacks with that nasty cat-o-nine-tails thingy.
  • Malaproper: She has a hard time pronouncing some Japanese sayings, such as proclaiming that she is "filthy" instead of "flawless" in Zodiarts form[1]; that's how Gentaro figured out Erin was Aquarius. It even goes to the point that the Zodiarts have to correct her pronunciation.
  • Meaningful Name: Her name is an anagram of Eridanus, a mythical Greek river that is somewhat associated with Aquarius.
  • Monster of the Week: Just like Capricorn and Aries.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Gentaro explains to Erin that Yuki did hide the camera parts because she found in the box were instructions for the robot the team had to make It was a Secret Test of Character to see what the team could do under circumstances, and Yuki created that cat to make up for the loss. Gentaro notes that by being the leader, she would be downright hated by everyone else, but she was willing to do so for the sake of the team. And when she returns after pushing Yuki off of the hill, Yuki states that she should leave the girl behind and save herself. Damn.
  • Not So Different: Even though she won't admit it, she is actually similar to Yuki. Both wish to go to space, and both are determined to do the best of their abilities. It's just that their ways of leading (where Erin immediately takes charge and tells them what to do and Yuki just suggests something and presses on knowing that people will despise her for doing so) that are huge contrasts.
  • Pet the Dog: The first thing she does as Aquarius Zodiarts? Use the water from her healing jugs to heal Kengo.
    • Despite being cold to Yuki, she also praises at how Gentaro and Kengo have the potential to become astronauts.
  • Serious Business: Going into space and passing the mock space exam is very important to her, since her father never had a chance to go. Thus while she is nice to Gentaro and Kengo, she utterly despises Yuki because she doesn't believe the Genki Girl is taking the whole thing seriously.
  • Stone Wall: That Healing Factor of hers makes it near impossible for her to be defeated. But if you can destroy both the water jars on her shoulders at once, she's done for.
  • Whip It Good
  • Worthy Opponent: Considers Kengo and Gentaro these in the astronomy exam. Yuki, on the other hand is the exact opposite.

Taurus Zodiarts/Sugiura Yuuta

The ninth member of the Horoscopes to appear, he is based off of Taurus, the Bull. He was present for the mock space exam, though he was later revealed to have the potential to become the Taurus Zodiarts. An avid golf player, who forces people to sign contracts with him, and the loser is banned from interfering with the winner in any way.

  • Chekhov's Gunman: At first, he seems to have just been there for the exam. At the end of the episode, though, Libra reveals that Sugiura is going to be the Taurus Zodiarts.
  • Deal with the Devil: Seems to be his MO when dealing with potential threats.
  • A Load of Bull

Other Zodiarts

Toshiya Miura/Orion Zodiarts

Live Actor: Masanori Mizuno

A member of the football club who, fed up with his peers' poor treatment of him, accepts the Orion Zodiarts Switch to get revenge. His patron constellation is Orion the Hunter.

  • Camera Fiend: His family owns a photography studio. At the end of Episode 14, he quits the Football team and joins the Photography Club.
  • Carry a Big Stick: The Lemnos Club in Last One
  • Cold Turkeys Are Everywhere: The real reason why he's not going back to school.
    • At the end of Episode 14, he's recovered thanks to Gentaro giving Miura all the photos Mari took of him.
  • Defeat Means Friendship: Gentaro extends his hand of friendship to him. However, his promise of friendship isn't enough to stop Miura's withdrawal symptoms from the Switch. Fortunately, at the end of Episode 14, he takes Gentaro's hand of friendship for good.
  • The Dog Bites Back: The part of his Freudian Excuse for accepting the power of the Orion Zodiarts. Doesn't help that it wasn't intentional on Shun's part.
  • Embarrassing Old Photo: Inverted. He and his family take photos of young children in a studio they own.
  • Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Chios Shield in Last One.
  • Mighty Glacier: Large, imposing, and powerful. Pretty much made to beat the ever-loving crap out of people.
  • "No Respect" Guy: Gets told by Shun that he's going to be benched rather harshly. In Episode 8, Shun confesses this was due to his father telling him to do so, and he felt remorse when he saw how this took a toll in Miura's sanity.
  • The Power of Love: His love for Mari helps him overcome his addiction to the Orion Switch.

Tamae Sakuma/Chameleon Zodiarts

Live Actor: Maria Yoshikawa

A third-year and member of Miu's cheerleading trio, whose disillusionment with Miu's two-year winning streak at the Queen Festival drove her into accepting the Chamaeleon Switch. Her patron constellation is Chamaeleon the Chameleon.

Fumihiro Nitta/Unicorn Zodiarts

Live Actor: Kiyotaka Uji

A first-year fencer who holds a deep grudge against JK for once using him as a human shield against a bunch of bullies, severely injuring his right arm and thus preventing him from competing in a fencing meet. Driven by vengeance, he accepts the Unicorn Switch. His patron constellation is Monoceros the Unicorn.

  • False Friend: JK pretends to be friends with Nitta so that he can use him.
  • Game-Breaking Injury: Thanks to JK using him as a Human Shield, he got a bad injury on his right arm and thus was forced to miss out on a fencing tournament. This, coupled with him overhearing that he was simply used, fuels his hatred against JK. It's ultimately subverted as he's not only recovered, but well enough to augment the power of his Switch.
  • Human Shield: What JK made him to be in the past against a bunch of bullies. This fuels his rage against him.
  • Implausible Fencing Powers: Justified - the Switch evolved in reaction to his training in fencing.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Hard to hit, pretty speedy, and the rapier is pretty useful when regular attacks won't cut it.
  • Unicorn: Obviously.

Teruhiko Satake/Hound Zodiarts

Live Actor: Ryuji Sato

A second-year and son of the notoriously ruthless detention teacher, Takashi, who has decided to rebel against his strict father. Along the way he receives the Hound Switch, and soon goes on a rampage. His patrion constellation is Canes Venatici the Hunting Dogs.

  • Black Sheep
  • Blade Below the Shoulder
  • Chain Pain: Both in human forma and Zodiart form.
  • Freudian Excuse: Conveniently mirroring Shun during Episodes 7-8.
  • Jack of All Stats: His two attacks are great for long and mid-range opponents. Unfortunately, most of the time he is able to escape due to something else happening (ie Scorpio helping him or Shun stopping Fourze from defeating him). Once Fourze had him in the open, he was done.
  • Japanese Delinquents: At home, anyway.
  • Living a Double Life: JK's intel reveals that at school he plays The Dutiful Son and student; after school, however, he became a petty thief stealing chain-like jewelry, using them as his weapons and also to symbolize his desire to break free from his father's shadow.
  • Not So Different: He and Shun both have overbearing fathers; they only differ in actions - whereas Shun was driven into a breakdown but eventually found friends, Teruhiko decided to bust the chains out and act like a rebel.
  • Spikes of Villainy

Ritsuko Usaka/Altar Zodiarts

Live actor: Hikari Kajiwara

A leader of a witches' coven that comprises Yuri Kuramochi, Masami Okamura and herself. As the Altar Zodiarts she uses her powers to make it appear that her group has magical powers. Her patron constellation is Ara the Altar.

  • Broken Pedestal: for Tomoko.
  • Freudian Excuse: Reveals that she's already sick of being ostracized because she can see things others couldn't, and getting blamed by teachers for any supernatural mishap she witnesses.
  • Goth
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: Tries to beat Fourze using her head of fire...but his Fire States makes him able to absorb her attacks, thus rendering them useless.
  • Not So Different: With Tomoko - both have ESP, as shown in a flashback when they first meet, as both of them reach for the same book. The glaring difference between their fates gets lampshaded below.
  • Magic Staff: Aradia Staff which produce fire and have psychokinetic ability.
  • Mighty Glacier: Doesn't move a lot and uses her levitation to get an advantage on her opponents. Her fire attacks are very powerful...until Fourze absorbed it and sent it back at her.
  • Mind Over Matter
  • Pet the Dog: Despite her hatred of teachers, she liked Sonoda-sensei enough to be honest about how her presence could've saved her from the life of a witch and exhorts her to run away before she blows up the entire school.
  • Playing with Fire/Fireballs
  • Psychic Powers: Claims joining the witches coven with give you them. She lied.
  • Skunk Stripe: Has a streak of blonde hair.
  • Then Let Me Be Evil: Being treated like a freak and always being blamed for the supernatural occurences only she can see caused her to turn bad for real. She actually quotes this almost word for word.
  • Villainesses Want Heroes: When she returns, it turns out she wants to ask Gentaro to the prom.
  • Wicked Witch: Or so the Altar Zodiarts' power allows her to.

Hiroki Makise/Pyxis Zodiarts

Live Actor: Takafumi Shinohara

Yuki's former "friend" at the Astronomy Club who has a massive crush on her. Uses his Zodiarts power as a way to get to her and then extract his revenge. His patron constellation is Pyxis the Mariner's Compass.

  • Adorkable: Averted. He's a geeky dork with glasses, but he's also a psycho who could kill anyone and stalk any girl he wanted.
  • Beware the Silly Ones: No, really. Makise went from geeky self-absorbed dork with a crush on one girl, play-acting as the "rest" of the astronomy club "Party of One"-style, to invoking a Deal with the Devil with Yuki, turning Fourze's attacks on his friends and finally attempting to SHOVE A BUS FULL OF STUDENTS OFF A BRIDGE. And all within the sophomore year!
  • Blade Below the Shoulder: Averted. Despite the way they are place and look, Pyxis does not use them for offense.
  • The Bus Came Back: He comes back in #37.
  • Dirty Coward
  • Dowsing Device: How the blades on his arms function. They range from having the ability to find something (by letting someone touch them and think about the item in general), or using them to control people for his own use.
  • Explaining Your Power to the Enemy: he was Dangerously Genre Savvy enough to AVERT this; Fourze tried firing his Launcher missiles at Pyxis, not knowing of the latter's powers until it was too late, destroying what seemed to be the locker to the Rabbit Hatch in the process.
  • Failed a Spot Check: Yuki and Gentaro never even realized he was also participating in the test until they were all inside the Isolation Chamber.
  • Four Eyes, Zero Soul: Was obsessed with Yuki for quite some time, but now that he's the Pyxis Zodiarts he decides that it's time to crush her like (he thinks) she did to him, stating she was damaged goods. He's also the first Zodiarts to be portrayed as an unsympathetic Jerkass from the get go.
    • What's more, he was like this before Scorpion Zodiarts gave him that switch!
  • He-Man Woman Hater: His stalker-like tendencies fueled this ideal. Tomoko lampshades this when he returns in #37--25 episodes later by saying, "Simply, he's a misogynist."
  • I Lied: Made a deal with Yuki to find the locker if she agreed to be his girlfriend and abandon her friends. He had no intention of keeping his side of the deal and instead blew up the locker so he could see her cry.
  • Jerkass: So much so that Gentaro doesn't extend his hand of friendship as he'd done with previous Zodiarts.
  • Kick the Dog: Only helped Yuki find the locker for the Rabbit Hatch just so he could destroy it and make her cry.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Of the Monster-Of-The-Week variety.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Becomes the first Switcher to miss out on Gentaro's friendship offer, leaving him instead to try to flee (in vain) from the girls whom he trapped on the bus at the end of Episode 12.
  • Loners Are Freaks: He's the only member of the Astronomy Club (Yuki notes that it's because of his behavior that everyone left), and is shown to interact with no one else in the school. Oh and he's a stalker, that should explain everything.
  • Man Scorned: Yuki has no feelings for him whatsoever, so he made it his duty to crush her by trying to destroy the locker connecting to the Rabbit Hatch. Taken Up to Eleven in Episode 12 when he tries to murder every other girl who shot him down by trapping them on a bus bound to drive off an unfinished bridge.
  • Mind Over Matter: Can control objects and people with the blades on his arms.
  • Never My Fault: Seems completely oblivious to the fact Yuki isn't turning him down out of spite but out of repulsion over his creepy obsession with her, instead deciding that she deserves to suffer for it. This extends to the 20-30 other girls that have rejected him.
    • He also claims it's Fourze's fault for (apparently) destroying the locker to the Rabbit Hatch (when in fact he redirected Fourze's missiles).
  • Psychopathic Manchild: Let's see, a loony kid who obsesses over Yuki but then tries to destroy her once it became clear that she's not going to reciprocate his "feelings" and takes sheer delight in turning girls into shooting stars by killing them (as evidenced by a future diary full of cute pictures depicting his gambit to send a bus full of them crashing off of an unfinished bridge)? Oh, yes. And JK's intel implies he's been like this way before he even got his Switch!
  • Reformed but Rejected: Only in his own mind. (re: #37)
  • Slasher Smile: Has one of these whenever he's about to transform into Pyxis.
  • Squishy Wizard: He terrorizes Amanogawa with his telekinetic powers. The Zodiarts Switches' ability to mutate to suit their users' natural talents, however, leaves him in a bad spot. Whereas Miura was a football player, Sakuma a cheerleader, Nitta a fencer, Satake a brawler, and Usaka a firm believer in black magic, he's nothing but a geeky dork with serious psychological problems, leaving him an utter pushover in melee combat (one exploited by Fourze's mid-range-oriented Elek States).
  • Stalker Shrine: He wasn't only obsessed with Yuki. JK found out that the guy has a star map with the names and pictures of all the pretty girls in Amanogawa that he was gong to put on a bus and make it crash off of an unfinished highway.
  • Stalker with a Crush: For Yuki. He's given her incredible amounts of letters, gifts, emails and voicemails for God knows how long.
    • Apparently extends to a host of other girls whom he forced onto a bus headed for an unfinished bridge.
  • Teens Are Monsters: He's the worst out of all of the unevolved Zodiarts shown so far and that's saying something!
  • Two Episode Wonder: Despite just being another Monster of the Week, the fact that his entry is twice the length of any other Zodiarts and he's got an entire section in the Fridge Horror entry shows how much of an impact this psycho has made in the show.
  • Vile Villain Saccharine Show: In a rather lighthearted series where even Gamou seems to have good intentions and every other Zodiarts is an Anti-Villain, a genuinely creepy sociopath like this guy really stands out.

Soushi Motoyama/Perseus Zodiarts

Live Actor: Ryutarou Akimoto

President of the Art Club. He takes the Perseus Switch so he can dish out some punishment upon anyone (and anything) that disturbs his work. His patron constellation is Perseus.

  • Ax Crazy: He was the second craziest Zodiarts next to Makise, but he's shown to be much better off at the end of Episode 16.
  • Berserk Button: This guy really hates Yuki's voice when she sings, but has no problem with Abe and the rest of the Glee Club.
    • He also hated Gentaro singing the Hayabusa song (although Gentaro might've done it deliberately to lure him out)
  • Childhood Friends: Abe mentions that they went to Elementary and Middle School together. At the end of #16, they're on the rooftop shaking hands.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: He's decided to turn everyone who kept him from painting in peace into stone statues. So far his victims are three punks who bullied him, a pitcher who accidentally knocked over some paint cans with a stray baseball, and two Gossipy Hens who, in his opinion, won't shut up. And that's not yet mentioning a building he damaged such that it will lean, because it was blocking his view of Mount Fuji.
  • Freudian Excuse: Because everyone's been bugging him and not letting him paint in peace, he's become a Zodiarts to shut them up for good.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: If you do anything to interrupt his painting, he'll go berserk.
  • Irony: His powers get blocked when Gentaro uses the Pen Switch on him and splatters ink on his Medusa Hand.
    • Well it has been said that the pen is mightier than the sword.
  • Mad Artist: His art is decent, but his obsession to his works is...unhealthy, to say the least.
    • He gets much better at the end of #16, deciding to redo his Mount Fuji picture and is shown to be more calm about it.
  • Manly Tears: Breaks down into these (While in Zodiarts form, mind you) once he sees the works of the kindergarten class surrounding a previous work of his, and realizing that he was only trying to make himself happy with trying to perfect his painting.
  • Master of None: Sure he has the sword and petrification powers, but he's nothing when they're rendered useless.
  • Medusa: His left hand turns people to stone. And if Gentaro was conscious the whole time....
    • Kengo notes that the petrification wasn't complete and that's why Gentaro was able to move around despite becoming stone. Still, doesn't necessarily mean the other victims aren't somehow conscious despite being unable to move.
  • Monster Based on a Hero Prefers Swords: The Oracle Sword.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Upon arriving at the kindergarten class, he's awed that his previous painting is surrounded by all of the other works of the kids, reminding him of Gentaro's drawing of Mount Fuji. He then realizes that he had taken his art so seriously that he forgot the reason he'd been making it in the first place, to make the children happy, breaking down into tears. It's also implied that this canceled out his ability to evolve into a Horoscope.
  • Pet the Dog: Yes, he's utterly crazy and has bad anger issues, but the reason he wants to perfect his paintings is because he simply wanted to make a kindergarten class he sometimes visits happy with his works.
    • Also, he doesn't hate all of the Glee Club; his ire is just toward Yuki and her Hayabusa song. As shown in the end of #16, he's back to being good friends with Abe.
  • Serious Business: Painting
  • Secret Handshake: Shown twice; he does it with Gentaro (as Perseus Zodiarts) and then once more with Abe at the end.
  • Super OCD: He proclaims that anything that isn't perfect must be destroyed. Fortunately, he sees all of the kindergartners' drawings next to his old painting for them, and realizes that it doesn't matter if it's perfect or not. What mattered was the passion and love they put into them.
  • Taken for Granite: What frequently happens to his victims.

Kimio Nonomura/Lynx Zodiarts

Live Actor: Shohei Yamazaki

Kengo's self-proclaimed rival, who was given his Switch by the Libra Zodiarts. He uses it in order to get rid of the competition of all students with higher test scores than he. His patron constellation is Lynx the Lynx.

  • Character Tics: Snapping his left thumb and index finger, which quickly outed his true identity to the Club.
  • Flat Character: Aside from having a one-sided rivalry with Kengo on the smartest student in school, there's nothing else on him. Even more so since we don't even see him after Gentaro destroys his Zodiarts switch.
  • Fragile Speedster: Uses his speed to his advantage, but can't take powerful hits.
  • Panthera Awesome
  • Shadow Archetype: He's basically Kengo minus the idea of him wanting to make friends and the toleration all of Gentaro's antics.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: It comes with being Kengo's "self-proclaimed" rival.
  • The Rival: Claims to be this for Kengo.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: He was last seen in the Rabbit Hutch with the KRC suggesting to put him in a storage closet. We don't even know whether or not he changed for the better.
  • Wolverine Claws: Comes in hand with his feline theme.

Jin Nomoto/Dragon Zodiarts

Live Actor: Ryu Ando

Captain of the Track and Field team who became a Zodiarts to discourage outside help and to kill the Kamen Riders, starting to grow bored of track practice. His patron constellation happens to be Draco the Dragon.

Natsuji Kijima/Pegasus Zodiarts

Live Actor: Soran Tamoto

A Zodiarts who is attacking talented martial artists to test its own strength. Its patron constellation is Pegasus until he evolves into the Cancer Zodiarts.

  • Beneath the Mask: A very jolly fellow who sprinkles rakugo phrases and puns into his normal speech. Then after he is uncovered as the Pegasus Zodiarts, he drops the flowery speech and becomes sinister and cold.
  • Blood Knight
  • Character Tic: Clops his feet like a horse when about to throw a high kick. He only does this in order to incriminate Haruka Utsugi, and drops it once he is uncovered.
    • Nowadays he's more often seen tapping that fan of his in time with the dialogue.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Part of the reason why he framed Haruka Utsugi was because she took away his fan when he accidentally hit her with it, though he admits he would've done it to someone anyway and that was just why he did it the way he did.
  • Faux Affably Evil
  • For the Evulz: Outright admits most of his reason for becoming a Zodiarts and framing Haruka was simply because he enjoyed it. Pretty much becomes his modus operandi when handing out Zodiarts Switches.
  • Frame-Up: Tries to frame Utsugi by mimicking her fighting style, dropping some evidence and telling the KRC that she took it from him, and outright saying "Do you really want to hit your teacher?" when Gentaro fights him in Episode 21.
  • From Nobody to Nightmare: Found his switch by complete accident (rather than being selected by the Horoscopes) and still manages to be the first Monster of the Week to evolve into a full blown Horoscope.
  • Meaningful Name: His given name can be alternately read as the word for "crab".
  • One-Winged Angel: Transforms into the Cancer Zodiarts.
  • Pegasus: Self explanatory.
  • Pungeon Master: A member of the school's Rakugo Club, he often mixes puns and wordplay into his speech.
    • Especially obvious in Episode 27, when he spends a couple of minutes during his fight with Meteor making puns about fish and tadpoles, to Meteor's growing annoyance.
  • Red Herring: Was thought to be Haruka. He was deliberately impersonating her fighting style to set her up as said Zodiarts out of petty revenge for confiscating his fan, and For the Evulz.
  • Shadow Archetype: He's pretty much Ryusei without something to keep him good - both put up a Nice Guy facade to hide their more serious personae. Whereas Ryusei ultimately Took a Level In Kindness, Natsuji is rapidly Jumping Off the Slippery Slope and into a full Horoscopes.
  • The Sociopath: What he's like Beneath the Mask.
  • Wicked Cultured
  • Wings Do Nothing: So far just there for decoration.

Norio Eguchi/Cygnus Zodiarts

Live Actor: Shugo Nagashima
Voice Actor: Taiki Matsuno

A student who wishes to be a hero after observing Fourze. He becomes a Zodiarts who styles itself as a Hero of Justice, complete with flashy entrance and catchphrase. However, it possesses a fragile ego and spitefully assaults anyone who slights it and even more so. Its patron constellation is Cygnus the Swan.

  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: At first it seems like a hero for justice...until JK reveals that Cygnus beats people up who make fun of it. Episode 24, however, reveals that it's actually his shadow self at work all this time.
  • Captain Ersatz: Of both Sieg and Kamen Rider IXA.
  • Character Tics: Assigning people points based off of good or bad actions; Cygnus fangirl Misa Toriizaki does the same but this is just a Red Herring.
  • Cosplay: Has an outfit inspired by Cygnus, and then dons one based on Fourze at the end.
  • Dirty Coward: Used Tomoko as a shield to keep Meteor from bashing him in. He does it again in Episode 24, this time with Toriizaki.
  • Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Due to his reputation as a hero, everyone simply calls him "Cygnus"; Gentaro's fight with his Last One state in Episode 24 marks the first time anyone refers to him as the Cygnus Zodiarts.
  • Feather Flechettes
  • Fan Boy: Wanted to become a hero after observing Fourze fighting off Lynx Zodiarts in Episode 18 then switched to Cygnus after he was saved from thugs. He decides to go back to worshiping Fourze via dressing up like him and helping a lady on the street.
  • Glass Cannon: Can beat up people with a fight and uses his feathers as projectiles, but once Meteor gives him a good kick, he goes down.
  • Paint It Black: His Perpetual Molt does this once he triggers Last One.
  • Perpetual Molt: The indication that Cygnus has arrived.
  • Secret Test of Character: Gentaro gets the members of the KRC to dress up and act out in situations to let Eguchi help them out. Eguchi settles on helping the little school kid (aka Yuki) get her balloon back.
  • Split Personality: The first time Eguchi used the Zodiarts Switch, it caused the darker side of his personality taking control of Cygnus while the real guy remained oblivious.

Yayoi Tokuda/Coma Zodiarts

Live Actress: Kasumi Suzuki

A third-year who is head of the Newspaper Club. She becomes a Zodiarts who uses its hair to create copies of the Chameleon, Altar and Dragon Zodiarts in order to frame their original Switchers and prevent them from graduating. Its patron constellation is Coma Berenices, the hair of Queen Berenice II of Egypt.

  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Seems to be a reasonable Hot Scoop...then she intentionally frames Tamae, Kimio and Ritsuko of wrongs they never commited - all because she doesn't want to graduate and neither will she let the others do so.
  • Camera Fiend
  • Club President: Of the Newspaper Club.
  • The Faceless
  • Foreshadowing: What's she doing in her first appearance? Trying to get an article out of Tamae, Ritsuko and Jin, even though it's only Ritsuko's alter-ego who "returned" around that time.
  • Four Eyes, Zero Soul
  • Girlish Pigtails: To a frightening degree.
  • Growing Up Sucks: Her motivation for becoming a Zodiarts and framing Ritsuko, Kimio and Tamae? She doesn't want to leave high school, and feels that neither should everybody else.
  • Informed Ability: JK claims that she makes for a better Knowledge Broker than him.
  • Mook Maker: Can turn its hair into copies of existing Zodiarts.
  • Not So Different: To Miu. Both are seniors, presidents of their respective clubs, and dread graduating. However, this is where similarities end: whereas Miu learns to accept the fact, Yayoi remains a stubborn Adult Child who refuses to accept it.
  • Prehensile Hair
  • Squishy Wizard: She can create clones from her hair and use it to entrap opponents, but once she's rendered immobile by the Power Dizer, she's pretty much good as done.
  • Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl: Provides the inspiration for this Zodiarts. Not just for the stringy hair and deliberately creepy Limp and Livid portrayal, but Yayoi also harbors a grudge.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: We don't know if she even graduates or gets held back like she wanted to.

Haru Kusao/Musca Zodiarts

Live Actor: Jigen Araki

A freshman who was given his Switch by Libra in an attempt to be more outgoing. His patron constellation is Musca, the Fly.

  1. ↑ Fuketsu = filthy, muketsu = flawless
  2. ↑ It roughly means "shit"
