Five Stars

Finished Kamen Rider Kiva last night
 
 Whereas Black was my overall introduction to the franchise, Kiva was my first "modern" Kamen Rider series. The production values certainly do show it, and the character development of Wataru Kurenai definitely adds to an already imrpessive show. Only real complaint I can think of is how it ends (it ends in a way that's kind of similar to Infinite Ryvius).
 
 Story takes place in the year between 1986 and 2008. Where Wataru Kurenai after the disappearance of his father,Wataru must also deal with Kamen Rider Ixa who is part of an organization seeking to destroy the Fangire menace, as well as the Fangires' own Rider, Kamen Rider Saga. The story is split between the actions of Wataru in the present (2008-09) and his father Otoya in the past (1986-87), slowly revealing the link between the Fangire Race and Kiva.  You can say it's exection was done kinda original with the past being re-used in the future. Later the series it get's more interesting with Waratu gettin' to the truth about what happen 22 years ago. The show's makes get pure character development and I like that. First Kamen Rider series of 2018 to be finished.
 
 I know this one seems short, but I finished it before going to bed, so my mind isn't in the optimal condition.
 
 10/10, unlicensed. I'd also say to watch the rest of the series.
