With his growing magical power,
Haruto puts a decisive end to his battles with the immortal Phoenix.
But a new Phantom, shrouded in mystery, has begun to plot behind the scenes.
Are you going to help me, Gremlin?
I think I can do a better job than Yuugo!
Are you responsible for Phoenix's...
I didn't do a thing!
Hey, watch out!
I can't trust you.
Well, that's a shame!
How can I get you to believe me?
Show me results.
We can talk after that.
You want results, do you?
Miss Daimon, I heard all about it! You got the suspect to confess?
Bank Robbery
Just had to be persistent.
Amazing! It's hard to believe you just got out of the hospital!
Well, I have to make up for lost time.
Excuse me.
Yes?
Haru! Welcome! Today, I'd recommend...
Plain sugar. He'll take your new recipe.
Nitou?
What are you doing, man?
He says he has a date. With Rinko.
She called me out of the blue!
I know! You don't have to say it.
I'm surprised that I'm Rinko's type, but...
Hey, don't be jealous! Being as hot as I am is no picnic!
Nitou!
Hey!
Kousuke!
Granny!
"Granny"?
The Wizard Rings contain magical power.
There is a man, a modern-day magic-user,
who wields their power with both his hands,
so that despair may become hope.

Episode 24
The Wizard's Grandmother
I had thought you disappeared after that excavation,
and I find you here in Tokyo...
What's going on here?! Explain!
She sounds strict.
You wouldn't believe it, but Nitou's from a rich family.
What happened to college?
If you're just playing around, then you will come back to Fukui with me this instant!
Um...
Nitou's actually here dealing with—
Shunpei, what's wrong?
More donuts? Here, I'll pay for them!
I really need you to keep the wizard thing a secret from my Granny.
Why?
Well, would you want to tell someone that you'd die if you can't eat Phantoms?
If she found out...
She'd yell at me!
My Granny's super strict!
I'm begging you.
Well, okay, but...
What are you going to do?
Isn't it obvious?
Run for it!
Hey, Kousuke!
Nitou!
Shunpei, take care of the lady.
Hey, wait!
Looking good, Weretiger!
Mistress Medusa.
I found a Gate this morning.
Can you help?
Here it goes! Say cheese!
I'm glad this helped cheer you up.
I mean, you came all the way from Fukui, so you should at least explore Tokyo a little.
Next, we should...
I appreciate you keeping me company, Shunpei.
Honestly, that boy...
Oh, well...
Oh, I know... You can have this, as a charm.
It's a frog, so you can hop on home safely.
It really works!
Thank you.
You're the Gate, yeah?
Now, fall into despair, and give birth to a new Phantom!
We have to run! This way!
It's okay...
It'll be okay, really...
No!
Let go!
Hello?
I'm not going!
The old lady's a Gate?!
Yes you are!
What?!
Enough hide and seek.
There's no escape now...
Granny!
Kousuke!
SHABADOOBIE, TOUCH TO TRANSFORM
Transform!
FLAME, PLEASE
FIRE FIRE, FIRE FIRE FIRE!
You should treat your elders with respect!
Hup!
Are you alright?
How did he...
Haruto is a wizard.
Don't give me any trouble, ring-bearing wizard!
Transform!

LION
Is that... another wizard?
Uh... Well, you see...
Are you the one that must consume Phantoms to survive?
That's me!
That's me! The magical girl everyone's talking about, Beast!
Magical girl?
I'm gonna gobble you up!
That's creepy.
You're so mean!
Wheeeeeeeee!
Is he serious?
Oh man, he's serious.
I'm outnumbered here....
Man, I'm exhausted...
Are you okay? Were you hurt?
No, thankfully...
Gotta go! Bye-bye! Tee hee!
Oh, so the Gate is Beast's grandma?
I see...
So that's why that monster attacked me.
Yeah, basically.
I've certainly seen a lot in my years,
but getting rescued by a wizard is a first.
That would be a shock, huh? And your very own—
Whoa, wait, mister! I forgot where the toilet is...
Are you the Magical Girl, Beast?
I'm not a wizard at all.
And Beast is actually—
Koyomi, you're so cute today!
Why don't we go buy you a new hat!
- Shopping! - Hang on!
Kousuke! Stop making a fool of yourself!
Come on!
If you hadn't come all the way to Tokyo, we wouldn't have to deal with any of this!
What sense does that make? Explain yourself!
Look, just go back to Fukui.
Please.
I will gladly go home at any time, as long as you come with me.
What's the matter?
You should be eating with us.
I couldn't stay in there anymore.
This is too nice of you...
Oh, no, it's my pleasure.
I was really close with my grandma.
She passed away while I was in middle school, but she was always so nice to me.
Oh, you certainly loved your grandmother, didn't you?
I sure did!
I'm envious.
My grandson has never taken a liking to me...
Even when I was a kid, she was a huge slave driver.
She was always mad at me for something.
Nitou
Oh, Kousuke! Stop that right now!
No, Kousuke! Get down from there!
Whoa... A fossil!
No, Kousuke!
I told you never to go to the river by yourself!
Whatever I wanted to do, she was against it.
Archeology?
I talked it over with Dad and Mom.
Being a man is about adventure! I'm going to explore ancient ruins all over the world!
I won't allow it! You're being childish.
Don't say it! I've already made up my mind.
He was such a reckless boy, so I always found myself nagging him.
I suppose it's only natural he doesn't like me...
That's not true. He wants you to go back to Fukui because it's safer there than here in Tokyo.
Besides, he came to protect—
Never mind!
Anyway, Nitou doesn't hate you at all.
Haruto.
Could you take my Granny home to Fukui for me?
WaiWai Camping Park
Please.
Well, if you insist...
Now, how to send that Gate into despair?
Looks like you're having some trouble, Igawa.
Who are you?
Who dares call me that?
I'm Sora! I don't think you've seen me like this before.
Another Phantom...
What do you want?
It seems Beast doesn't want his grandma to know he's a wizard.
That's useful info, don't you think?
Sorry that we're the only ones going with you, ma'am.
Well, you're certainly more reliable than that idiot grandson of mine.
Nitou could've at least seen you to the station.
To the station... just to the station.
Be careful, ma'am.
Excuse me, driver? I was going to get on...
No way!
Stop the bus! Someone still needs to get on...
Sorry, but he's not getting a ride.
You...!
Seriously?!
A Phantom?!
This time, you're taking a one-way ride to despair!
Shunpei!
If I could just transform...
Kousuke!
Move!
Granny, you can lecture me afterwards.

You again?!
Slippery little rat...
Get out!

Hurry and run!
Go!
So you did come.
I just wanted to see her off! But first, let's get this over with!
WATER, PLEASE

CHA-CHA-CHA-CHAMELEO

That wizard... was Kousuke?!
Alright.
You're the only one left, main dish!
Who are you calling your main dish?
Let's do this.
Whoa!
Oh crap!
Huh?
This is one of Haruto's rings!
BEAST, PLEASE
Huh?
How come you can use mine but I can't use yours?!
And you get a cooler spell from it than me! No fair!
Hey, that was great!
Nitou, can I keep this one?
Aw, man!
BUFFA, GO
B-B-B-B-B-BUFFA
Haruto! Let me finish him!
I never get to eat an actual Phantom!
Are you the one that must consume Phantoms to survive?
Now, fall into despair, and give birth to a new Phantom!
Wait...
Ma'am!
You, Phantom!
Make me despair.
Hey! Granny, what are you saying?
I won't run and hide.
Get it over with.
Well said.
Hey, stop!
Now let the fear of death drive you to despair!
No!
Shunpei!
Now this is getting fun.
You!
Tell you what, I'll trade you.
The kid for the old lady.
No!
Okay, Beastie.
Bring your grandma to my place. Come alone, 'kay?
Obviously, if you don't, this guy's dead meat.
Well, I'll be in touch with the details.
Come on, Igawa.
H-Hey!
Wait!
Shunpei!
Next time on Kamen Rider Wizard.
Will you choose his life? Or...
If you died, then I'd be the one in despair!
I've lived long enough.
I hope your Phantom's a cutie!
Stop!
