The boy Yuzuru, a Gate, is driven to the brink of despair by a Phantom.
Medusa prevents Haruto from coming to his aid.
But then, a young girl who has become a wizard arrives.
Transform.
CHANGE, NOW
I'll destroy you with my own hands...
For killing my sister!
You're a wizard too?
It's time to end this!
Oh crap! The Phantom's about to spawn!
Get off!
Now, then...
What do you want?
You knew I was here?
Oh well. Just pretend I'm not here and keep doing your thing.
Not that I know what you're trying to do...
Yuzuru!
Come on out, new Phantom!
Don't let it take you, Yuzuru!
You wanted to change, right?!
You wanted to show Akari how much you'd grown, right?!
Then hang in there!
Show her what you're made of now!
Akari...
I wanted to see you...
All this time...
The way I used to...
Akari!
Akari...?
Yuzuru...
You can't...
Akari!
Don't!
He held the Phantom back?!
Hey, hey! This was not supposed to happen!
I'm in a jam now! What do I do?
I'll just hold on to you two for now!
Wait!
Outta the way!
Yuzuru!
Akari!
CONNECT, NOW
TELEPORT, NOW
BARRIER, NOW
We have another nuisance now, do we?
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.
Maji ka maji de magic da show time
Ready? Because here's real magic! It's showtime!
Maru de tsuki to taiyou
It's every bit as striking
Kasanaru toki no shougeki

Dare datte kiseki wo shinjitemitai
In the way that everyone hopes for a miracle
Kitto hitsuyou fukaketsu no energy kokoro no tame
All you can rely on is your soul's energy
Yume to yosou ii imi de uragitte kureru mono
With it, you can surpass your wildest dreams and defy all expectations
3 2 1 showtime
Magic time trick janai
Magic time! There's no tricks here!
Mahou wo hirou hanpa neezo
He's showing off his sorcery!
Kioku no roots mogurikonde
He'll dig into the roots of your memories
Kibou wo sukuidasou
to keep your hope alive!
Show Time!
Life is showtime tobikkiri no
Life is the biggest showtime you'll ever know
Unmei no drive mucha shitemo
Even if it's dangerous to drive to your fate
Kinou kyou ashita mirai
Today, tomorrow, yesterday, and the future,
Subete no namida wo
take all of your tears,

Ready? Because here's the real magic! It's showtime!
What?
Episode 41
A Fate of Wizardry
You mean that Phantom's still alive and kicking inside the kid?
Indeed.
And special humans like him have the potential to be wizards...
All I gotta do is send him to despair before he has the chance?
Okay! Sylph's on it!
And now I'm sure glad I grabbed her.
Hurry it up.
Or we'll have another annoyance to deal with.
If you can't make him despair...
Eliminate him.
Akari...
Yuzuru.
Would you like to be a wizard?
You have the potential now.
Which means...
You can gain the power to fight the Phantoms.
You mean...
I can go save Akari?!
What are you talking about?! He's still in middle school!
And I'm in high school! But I'm still a wizard!
Yuzuru...
It's your decision.
Hold on, Mayu.
What is the White Wizard after, making you do this?
Who is he?!
I'm sorry...
Even I don't know who he is.
But...
He did tell me this.
We need two other wizards.
That will give us the power to eradicate all Phantoms.
The power to eradicate all Phantoms...?!
Did you finish putting together that composite?
Right!
It's all done!
Oh man, look at the time! I need to get back to the station!
Daimon Rinko!
...Yes?
Would you like to transfer over here?
Really?
Yes! I'd love to!
Good. I'll get the paperwork started.
Thank you so much!
Excuse me!
This face is...!
Oh, hey!
Out of mana?!
It's okay.
PLEASE, NOW
So with more wizards... there'd be more people who can help Koyomi?
If you wanna become a wizard to help people, give it up.
Listen up.
Being a wizard means putting your life on the line.
Anyone who's willing to do it is in it for themselves.
Even you, Kousuke?
I'm probably in it for myself more than most!
The thing is, I didn't choose it in the first place. I was forced into it.
You've got time to think it over. Don't rush into it, got that?
That's what you do with a decision like this.
Got it?
Dear Gate
It's from the Phantom...!
"I've got your honey-pie at the rock quarry on the outskirts of town."
Yuzuru.
Wait back at Remnants.
I'm going too!
It's too dangerous!
If you fall into despair again...
I know you're worried about Akari, but...
That's not all.
I want to see... how wizards fight.
So I can make up my mind whether to be one or not.
Yuzuru...
List of physicists
A laboratory that studies magic...
I assumed it was to deal with Phantom cases, but...
This could mean...
Hey, hey, hey, I didn't think the whole gang would show up!
Where's Akari?
3, 2, 1!
Akari!
Stop!
Take a good look!
One wrong move, and she's a pancake!
Actually, I was gonna squish her no matter what you did, so...
Akari!
GRAVITY
Why?!
Akari, are you alright?
Come this way!
A third one?!
Hey, hey, guess you were too focused on us.
Good thing he's not too smart...
I'll have to eliminate the Gate after all.
What are you doing?
Just hold your horses.
I want to check on something first.
This is...
Name: Fueki Sou
Fueki Kyouko
Okay, then I'll just have to slice and dice the Gate!
I won't let him put a scratch on you.
Mayu...
Yuzuru.
Take a good look.
This is how wizards fight.
Haruto...
Stop! Don't say it.
DRIVER ON, PLEASE
DRIVER ON
Transform!

Hey, hey, hey...
You two are in the way!
Don't run away!
This is what you came to see.
Is your mind blown by my awesome wind?
Is that all you've got?
Then this is gonna be a breeze.
HURRICANE DRAGON
FALCO, GO
F-F-F-FALCO!

That's what I get for going against the wind...
Hey, wait!

The finale.
HIGH-FIVE! SHINING STRIKE
Oh n-n-no!
SPARKLE SPARKLE
Hey.
You okay?
Yo.
Working hard, huh?
Yep!
Yuzuru... Did you make up your mind?
Yeah...
I'm...
Not going to become a wizard.
I see...
It might be kind of selfish, and unfair...
But it's too scary...
And besides...
Akari is the most important person to me right now.
I see.
I want to grow up to be a real man so she won't look at me like just a kid,
and then I'll go see her again.
That definitely sounds like you'll be too busy for wizarding.
Alright! Let's take it from the top.
Right!
You're backing down just like that?
This isn't something you can force someone to do.
Besides...
He has someone he truly cares about.
I think that's wonderful.
Yeah.
What are you going to do?
I'll keep fighting, and searching...
For someone who will become a wizard.
Hello, Rinko?
Haruto! It's terrible!
Oh yeah...
If you're not gonna be a wizard, there's that thing we gotta get rid of...
What?
You know, the Phantom inside you.
I'll go gobble it up.
DRIVER ON

OPEN
Gimme your hand for a sec.
You're probably not into getting ringed by a dude, but just go with it.
Kousuke!
What the...
The white wizard...!
Come with me.
You have earned the right to become a wizard.
I don't want to.
It is your fate.
CHAINS, NOW
For you are one... of the last hopes.
That's enough!
You want a wizard, find someone else! Yuzuru doesn't want to!
Fine, have it your way!
BUFFA, GO!
B-B-B-B-B-BUFFA!
CONNECT, NOW
I see...
How about this?!

BUFFA SABER STRIKE
You really trying to kill me? If you do, you're down a wizard!
An archetype is of no use to me.
What are you talking about?!
I don't get what you mean, so out with it—
You have no need to know.
EXPLOSION, NOW
Yuzuru...!
TELEPORT, NOW
Y-Yuzuru...!
What is this...?!
How did this...?!
Next time on Kamen Rider Wizard.
Is it because he was investigating Fueki...?
He wasn't on our side after all!
There's someone I need your help finding with magic.
I thought I might just tell you...
Where the white wizard is hiding.
