Agito (アギト, Agito), also known as the Power of Agito (アギトの力, Agito no Chikara) or the Seed of Agito (アギトの種子, Agito no Shushi)[1], is a special blessing given to passengers of the Akatsuki ship and certain individuals in Kamen Rider Agito. Those who are given the Power of Agito are given special abilities and the targets of the Lords, who are tasked by the Overlord to eliminate those who are blessed with the power.
History[]
The Power of Agito is the essence of Prometh after his demise at the hands of the Overlord. The purpose of the power was to evolve humanity far beyond the Overlord's control. The Akatsuki was attacked by the El of the Water under orders from the Overlord to wipe out any vessels, refusing to let his brother's ambition come into fruition. Tetsuya Sawaki (now known as Shoichi Tsugami) turned into Agito and fought the El as the 2nd Agito before being thrown into the ocean and the El escaping into a host.
These powers grant their users the power to become Agito as well as other abilities (ex. psychic powers, enhanced senses, healing etc). However, only four individuals were able to use the transformation and only Shouichi and his older sister Yukina Sawaki were able to become perfect Agitos. Though Yukina committed suicide due to her traumas. The other individuals were Ryo Ashihara and Kaoru Kino. Ryo gained his transformation after a near fatal accident and became Kamen Rider Gills, a flawed and more feral form of Agito. Kino had received his transformation from the Akatsuki incident, but he too gained a flawed and disillusioned form of Agito, Another Agito. Near the end of the series a young woman named Kana Okamura also started to become an Agito and attempted to do take her own life the same way Yukina did until she was stopped by Shouichi and the man formerly known as Tetsuya.
The Power of Agito can also revive other individuals who had already possessed the Power of Agito as shown when Koji Majima relinquished his power to revive Ryo.
