PHANPERSON was the 1st installment in the MirageCorp-produced "Shiny Person" series. TOKUSATSU※ . Digital Witch Phantom, also known as Phanperson, the villainous CEO of a fictionalized version of the real company. "Phanperson" is a robotic evildoer bent on world domination, and each episode involved her dealing with one of several crime-fighting organizations (or, on occasion, other villainous networks.) Her plan is (usually) to subjugate the masses using Super Technology (sometimes called 'ST').
※ (( Tokusatsu, definition: a live-action movie or a television program that makes heavy use of practical special effects. Often from Japan. Often science fiction or fantasy themed, like Super Sentai or Kamen Rider or Godzilla.))
Most episodes would also include a new "Product Launch!" which would be a new "gadget of the week." When physical fights would erupt (as they did every episode), she would summon an armored body with the call 「ログイン!」 ("Log On"). Opposite of many other shows, she would deploy fully robotic minions, the Byte Soldiers (which usually fared poorly) without personalities. Also appearing were customized and numbered latex drones (which fared better against heroes).
