Mantis Fangire

The Mantis Fangire appeared in 2008 TV series called Kamen Rider Kiva. Mantis Fangire (マンティスファンガイア Mantisu Fangaia): The Mantis Fangire carries a scythe and drags a casket that holds the remains of Fangires, resurrecting them as mindless slaves to his will with intent on killing Maya for her transgressions. After Kiva decimated his army, the Mantis attempted to revive a new army, only to be impaled by the Zanvat Sword as it pierced through into the casket.

The Mantis Fangire appeared as part of a group of several Fangire which wrecked havoc as Natsumi Hikari was trapped within the changing dimensions during the destruction of the worlds.

The Mantis Fangire later appears as a member of Dai-Shocker, accompanying Apollo Geist in the World of Black RX. He is destroyed by Decade as Form Ride: Faiz Axel.
