Kamen Rider Kiva (ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ã‚ムKamen RaidÄ Kiba, Masked Rider Kiva) is the title of the 2008 Kamen Rider Japanese tokusatsu television series produced by Toei Company and Ishimori Productions. It premiered on January 27, 2008, following the finale of Kamen Rider Den-O. It aired as a part of TV Asahi's 2008 Super Hero Time block with Engine Sentai Go-onger. Advertisements showed a horror film theme to the series, with the motif for Kamen Rider Kiva as a vampire. The advertising slogan for the series is "Wake up! Break the chains of destiny!!" (覚醒(ウェイクアップ)! é‹å‘½ï¼ˆã•ã ã‚)ã®éŽ–を解ã放ã¦!! Weiku appu! Sadame no kusari o tokihanate!!). The first episode began with a commemoration of the series in honor of the seventieth anniversary of Shotaro Ishinomori's birthday.
Synopsis
Twenty-two years after the disappearance of his father, Wataru Kurenai lives in an infamous "haunted house" where he is destined as Kamen Rider Kiva to fight life-draining monsters called Fangires, the very race his father fought years ago before his disappearance. 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.
The characters of Kamen Rider Kiva are spread throughout two time periods, each related to one another. There are the actions of Otoya Kurenai and the Fangire Hunter Yuri Aso with the Wolfen Jiro in the year 1986 with the first Ixa Ver.I that result in the various Fangires that persist to the current day, in 2008, with Otoya's son Wataru (as Kamen Rider Kiva) along and Keisuke Nago (as Kamen Rider Ixa Ver.X) and Yuri's daughter Megumi (also a Fangire Hunter), dealing with the Fangires to prevent deaths.
Fangire
The Fangires (ファンガイア Fangaia) are stained glass-based vampires who feed off of the Life Energy (ライフエナジー Raifu Enajī) of humans to survive, with which they can disguise themselves as humans. Because of this, aware humans have formed a group to hunt the Fangires. Though Kiva usually captures a Fangire's soul to feed to Castle Doran, Fangires can be completely destroyed when shattered as seen by Ixa and stronger Fangires.
Episodes
Each episode's title is a word or phrase relating to music and a phrase describing the episode separated by a symbol from musical notation. For example, the second episode's title is written in Japanese as "組曲♪親åã®ãƒã‚¤ã‚ªãƒªãƒ³", using the eighth note. An exception is the finale, which uses the music end barline at the end of the title. From episode 2 onward, Kivat begins each episode by stating a piece of trivia about music, art, chess, and other subjects. From episode 30 onward, Tatsulot joins the opening statement as he and Kivat provide recaps of the previous episode.

Films
Climax Deka
A movie titled Movie Edition: Kamen Rider Den-O & Kiva: Climax Deka (åŠ‡å ´ç‰ˆã€€ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼é›»çŽ‹ï¼†ã‚ãƒã€€ã‚¯ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒžãƒƒã‚¯ã‚¹åˆ‘事(デカ) GekijÅban Kamen RaidÄ Den'Å ando Kiba Kuraimakkusu Deka) opened in theaters on April 12, 2008. It features a meeting between the characters of Kiva and the characters of Kamen Rider Den-O. They team up to fight a new evil Imagin who has teamed up with the Fangire Clan. Alongside Climax Deka, a short film titled Momotaros's Let's Go Kiva! (モモタãƒã‚¹ã®ã‚ãƒã£ã¦ã„ããœï¼ Momotarosu no Kiba tte Ikuze!) will be shown as double feature.[1][2][3][4]
King of the Castle in the Demon World
Movie Edition: Kamen Rider Kiva: King of the Castle in the Demon World (åŠ‡å ´ç‰ˆã€€ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ã‚ãƒã€€é”界城ã®çŽ‹ GekijÅban Kamen RaidÄ Kiba MakaijÅ no ÅŒ) opened in Japanese theaters on August 9, 2008. It featured two new Riders who have been shown in silhouettes in Japanese children's magazines, Kamen Rider Rey (ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ãƒ¬ã‚¤ Kamen RaidÄ Rei),[5] who is a monster hunter named Takato Shiramine (白峰 天斗 Shiramine Takato) played by Shouma Yamamoto (山本 åŒ é¦¬ Yamamoto ShÅma), partnered to Rey Kivat (レイã‚ãƒãƒƒãƒˆ Reikibatto, voiced by Norio Wakamoto) and the villain of the movie Takashi Sugimura (æ‰æ‘ 隆 Sugimura Takashi), a death-row inmate who transforms into Kamen Rider Arc (ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ã‚¢ãƒ¼ã‚¯ Kamen RaidÄ Ä€ku) with Arc Kivat (アークã‚ãƒãƒƒãƒˆ Ä€ku Kibatto, voiced by Norio Wakamoto), portrayed by Ken Horiuchi of the comedy troupe Neptune. The movie takes place in an alternate universe, as trying to place the story of the movie anywhere within the story of the series always leaves events out of place and would cancel out other events. Furthermore, Shouma Yamamoto plays Takato Shiramine in the Kamen Rider Kiva movie, but he also plays Taiga Nobori in the actual series.
"Den-Liner, Into Space!"
"Kamen Rider Kiva & Den-O: Den-Liner, Into Space!" (ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ã‚ãƒï¼†é›»çŽ‹ デンライナーã€å®‡å®™ã¸ï¼ Kamen RaidÄ Kiba ando Den'Å DenrainÄ, UchÅ« e!) is a planetarium show using the cast of Kiva and Den-O to teach children about the universe. It was being shown at the Kagoshima Municipal Science Hall's planetarium between January 2 and March 30, 2009.[6]
Adventure Battle DVD
The Hyper Battle DVD Kamen Rider Kiva: You Can Also be Kiva (ä»®é¢ãƒ©ã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒ¼ã‚ムã‚ミもã‚ãƒã«ãªã‚ㆠKamen RaidÄ Kiba: Kimi mo Kiba ni NarÅ) Wataru Kurenai, Keisuke Nago, and Otoya Kurenai introduce themselves to a boy (the viewer) who has wandered into the Café mald'amour and offer to teach him how he can be like each of them. This DVD is referred to as an Adventure Battle DVD (アドベンãƒãƒ£ãƒ¼ãƒãƒˆãƒ«DVD AdobenchÄ Batoru DÄ« Bui DÄ«) and it takes on the form of a Choose Your Own Adventure story. After having an "Ixa-cise" with Nago and a special lesson from Otoya, a Fangire attacks and the viewer can choose to transform Kiva into Garulu Form, Basshaa Form, Dogga Form, or the secret DoGaBaKi Emperor Form.
King of Vampire
For Kiva's S.I.C. Hero Saga side story Masked Rider Kiva: King of Vampire (MASKED RIDER KIVA -KING OF VAMPIRE- Kamen RaidÄ Kiba -Kingu ovu Vanpaia-), the story follows the life of the characters following the finale while expanding on other instances in the history of the 1986 storyline. The story is set to begin running in the January 2010 issue of Monthly Hobby Japan magazine. Like the series' episode titles, the titles of the first three chapters of the S.I.C. Hero Saga follow a similar format, but features two musically themed titles separated by an item from musical notation (the former is an opera while the latter is a song from said opera, the third names the composer and one of his songs). The first chapter uses the Segno. The last chapter is a retelling of the final scene of the TV series, except instead of Masao and the Neo-Fangires, Kiva-la comes to warn them about the Lion Fangire having turned into a giant Sabbat.

- "Roots of the King" is the theme song for Kamen Rider Dark Kiva and his son Kamen Rider Saga. On September 13, 2008, Naruse announced on the Avex Movie blog for Kiva that the next single to be released by TETRA-FANG is to be titled "Roots of the KING."[25] He also refers to the song as "Roots of the King" on his personal blog,[26] which has since become the title of the song.
Avex's blog for Kiva mentions a song entitled "Bite There Soul" that was written by Naruse and YUJI as a heavy metal song played by street musicians in episode 9 which was planned to be released at a future date,[27] and was subsequently put on the final CD box set as "Bite Their Soul"[28] set for release on January 21, 2009.[29] A mini-album released on August 6, 2008, titled SUPERNOVA[30] features the theme songs for Kiva's four additional forms performed by TETRA-FANG. The tracks include "Innocent Trap,",[23][24] "Shout in the Moonlight," and "Supernova," which has a music video included on a special DVD edition of SUPERNOVA.[31] An unfeatured song from SUPERNOVA titled "Silent Shout" is Dogga Form's theme.[32] Another track from the album "Message" is a tribute song for the character Otoya Kurenai.
Kouhei Takeda has recorded a song titled "This love never ends" as the theme song for Otoya as Ixa.[33] Nana Yanagisawa and Yu Takahashi have also provided their voices for tracks to be included on an album for all characters who have become Kamen Rider Ixa.[34] This song has since been revealed to be titled "Feel the same" on an album titled Inherited-System.[35] Other songs on this album include "Don't Lose Yourself" performed by Keisuke Kato as Keisuke Nago and "Inherited-System" performed by the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization (ç´ æ™´ã‚‰ã—ãé’空ã®ä¼š Subarashiki Aozora no Kai).[36] Kenji Matsuda as Jiro performs the song "Keep alive" for the album.[37] For a TETRA-FANG album titled DESTINY,[35] Koji Seto has recorded the vocals for a song titled "Mind garden."[33] Several songs from this album are theme songs for the members of the Checkmate Four group: "Lightning to Heaven" for the Rook, "Exterminate Time" for the King (Kamen Rider Dark Kiva), "Eternity Blood" for the Bishop, and "Rainy Rose" for the Queen (Maya). Also on the album is "Prayer~Message 2", another tribute to Otoya.
An album titled Masked Rider Kiva Re-Union was released on June 24, 2009, with some original Kiva songs to be rearranged. "Destiny's Play" will be rearranged, Koji Seto & Shouma Yamamoto will sing "Roots of the King" together, Koji Seto shall give his own rendition of "This love never ends", and in turn Kouhei Takeda will give his own rendition of "Supernova".
