as they should be
, after going through all that trouble to get Accel on the same page.
Wizard is a grey area. The White Wizard was never called a Kamen Rider, but
nobody
in that show had fancy names. Wizard is called Wizard like a few times early on, but like everyone else, is nearly exclusively referred to as "____
mahoutsukai
", so I guess make of that what you will, but I don't recall Wiseman being officially deemed a Rider until after the show was over.
That's a bit of semantics, though. Lots of series don't explicitly call themselves "Kamen Riders."
In Agito, they never uttered the words. An Agito was merely a psychic human that evolved into that stage. To be an Agito wasn't necessarily to be a Kamen Rider (It is now, granted).
Gaim were Armored Riders, Hibiki were Oni. It wasn't until we started getting the endless deluge of crossovers that characters, in series, started referring to themselves as "Kamen Rider ____".
