Kamen Rider Kiva (2008)

I was surprised when I first started to watch this show... I have never been of fan of shows like this. I think I based that off of watching the Power Rangers as a kid. I thought it looked cheesy and childish. I was so wrong. I'm hooked now and decided to write a review since I'm re-watching it now. I'm not gonna go into complete detail but don't base this show by it's cover. It is a good show for all ages but at the same time it's not childish at all. It had a deep story line and tons of emotion. Even though the series seems long I was able to go through it so quickly because of how interesting it was.

The actors were wonderfully picked and I was able to feel the pain or happiness and even anger when they expressed it. Out of all of The Kamen rider series so far, I liked Kiva the best. The costumes and effects were wonderful. The relationship between the characters is fantastic as well. The music is a little respective but in all it was good music.
A thing that kinda stopped me from watching this in the beginning was the fact that it goes forward and back from the past and present day, it was something I wanted to take a risk on though and I found myself intrigued by both the past and present coming together.
I definitely suggest giving this drama a try, even if it is your first Kamen Rider series.

I can tell you that this show is so amazing that I'm getting a the Kiva henshin symbol tattooed on my back. You wont regret watching this!!!

Story 9/10
I feel like every Kamen rider drama is lacking one genre and is that a happy ending for the Main protagonist with his loved one. The story is really unique if you ask me and i think it is in every Kamen rider that i watched. I graded it 9 because it lacks romance for me and the twists are amazing. I never thought that would happen ( which is i will not be typing in this review because it will be a spoiler). This story is unique in it's own ways cause in thiis series he is the only Kamen rider you'll see in a few episodes so the story had a time to build it's characters

novela mexicana

Kiva tem um foco maior no drama e romance do que a maioria dos riders, e isso serve tanto para seu bem tanto quanto seu detrimento. A ação, a estética e a OST são todos fenomenais, a historia é contada de um jeito unico que funciona muito bem e os personagens são carismaticos e memoraveis.
Dito isso, ainda creio que Kiva possui partes onde se prende muito em seu drama, além de uma deuteragonista que não faz nada, um antagonista final muito esquecivel e um final meh.
No geral, recomendo bastante pra quem procura um rider mais focado em drama e tragédia.
