History

Emoto Kuniteru is one of Gamou and Utahoshi Rokurou's friends. Apparently, Gamou convinces Emoto to join his side. Emoto takes the commander switch and becomes Virgo Zodiarts. Emoto considered himself to be the moon while Gamou is the sun and Rokurou is the Earth. He might be the one who killed Utahoshi Rokurou on the moon 17 years ago since he wanted to be the Earth instead.

Usually he uses his Zodiarts Switch to become Virgo to meet with Gamou due to him being in Kyoto. It's probably why he was seen in his Zodiarts form almost all the time. Virgo's first appearance was in Movie Taisen Mega Max where she tried to get the SOLU which it was in a form of a high school girl from Gentarou. Her first appearance in the TV series was shortly after Sonoda was defeated by Meteor. She sent Sonoda to the Dark Nebula. Then she stay around monitoring Hayami's progress of finding new Horoscopes which greatly annoyed Hayami. Virgo appeared to the Kamen Rider Club when the Pegasus Zodiarts was running amok. She sent out Dustards to help out and sent Meteor a calling card for a meeting the following day before leaving the area. She and Meteor fought each other which she proved that she was too much for Meteor but ends up giving a hint to the Pegasus Zodiarts' true identity. She reappeared to the Kamen Rider Club just after the Pegasus Zodiarts was defeated and threw Kijima's body to initialize the evolution of Pegasus into Cancer.

Virgo laid low after Cancer's evolution and eventually sent Kijima to the Dark Nebula because of Libra's deception. Her current function seems to be ferrying various Horoscopes to Gamou or retrieving Switches from defeated Horoscopes. She made a comment that Fourze's Cosmic States has similar power to her own.

Emoto meets with Kengo in Kyoto twice. He tells Kengo about his father and the current status of the Hole. Later he comes to Ama High to teach the special course to Kengo, Yuuki, Sugiura, and Tomoko. Tomoko develops a bond with him but sees that Emoto was really Virgo. Before he sent Tomoko to the Dark Nebula due to the moon rock she dropped when she discovered his true identity, he sent Sugiura to the Dark Nebula for being unfit as a commander.

Gamou tasks Emoto to eliminate Fourze, Meteor, and their support since they aren't needed anymore. So he threatens every member of the Kamen Rider Club except for Kengo and gets them to quit the club. During a battle with Fourze and Meteor while threatening Yuuki, Kengo sends Nuggeropa after Virgo.

Further Revelations

Nuggeropa gets destroyed by Virgo soon after the battle but the traces of Cosmic Energy remained on her. These traces were the key of Kengo figuring out that Virgo was Tachibana. Tachibana transformed into Virgo and sent Meteor to the Dark Nebula.

It was revealed that Emoto actually sent everyone who went to the Dark Nebula to stasis on M-BUS. He returned Tomoko and Ryuusei before revealing his true identity as Emoto to everyone in the Kamen Rider Club. Before he could further reveal the Horoscopes' plans, Gamou appeared as Sagittarius and shoots Emoto with a fire arrow. While Fourze and Meteor were fending off Sagittarius, he teleports himself and Kengo to a rooftop. He confesses to Kengo that he killed his father 17 years ago and that the Horoscopes' mission is to collect all 12 Horoscope Switches. Before he could say anymore, Leo and Libra appeared which Emoto was forced to fight them. He teleported both of them along with himself to a different location which he ends up losing his life.

Personality

As Emoto, he displays a modest face and a bit clumsy. He secretly harbored a hatred towards Kengo's father which he was willing to kill him on the moon 17 years ago. As Virgo, he is rather cold towards everyone except for Gamou. He respects individuality as he was willing to protect Tomoko from Sugiura's slaves and questions him about it during a Horoscopes meeting.

Trivia

Emoto is the first person in Fourze to die in the present day.

She can avoid Meteor's flying fists Limit Break easily by using her teleport ability. When she removes her mantle, a set of angel wings are revealed. These wings allow her to fly and even block attacks.
