Our hosts begin their journey into the gothic times and space of Kamen Rider Kiva, and remember all too late "Oh, right, whenever we switch series like this there's a lot of tangents."
The boys push onwards, and begin wondering what to do about a series like Kiva. Or a series like Zero-One. Or Zi-O. Or... Look, there's a lot on the table by the end of this episode.
Sometimes ignorance is bliss, and that's how the boys feel as they dig deeper into this gothic Rider's series, learning terrible facts from wikis and discovering maybe the series isn't about friends, you guys. It's about whether or not that stew was made from people or dog.
On a slightly briefer journey into darkness than usual, we cover the tragic tale of the luthier (yes that's a real word!) Ōmura, a Fangire with feelings. Watch our hosts begin to turn around on this show!
This week in Kiva: rock stars. I swear I've heard the gothic vampire turns stage presence tale somewhere before...
This time around, our hosts decide slow and steady wins the race and pace back to two episodes no matter which series (for now...), and what luck! They come out of this arc pretty positive on the events even if the plot strikes them as incredibly transparent.
Nobody: Literally nobody: Kiva: WHOOOOOO WANTS AMNEEEEEEEESIAAAAAAAAAAA (and dubious little play)
This week, back to full strength, our hosts return to the world of Kiva, where they're more positive than usual. Which isn't saying much when the episode involves phrases like "these characters are too good for Kamen Rider Kiva". BUTTON
This week is a breakthrough for all three hosts as their feelings on Kiva crystallize. Hint: by the end of the episode, they're all feeling the urge to double up on Kiva with next week's show!
A new tighter format leads to... no, nobody's having a good time this week on Kiva. But we're creeping closer to that halfway point! Maybe there's a midseason turn to save it? The editor has seen the show and knows, and cackles.
