Hello!
I finished episode 33 of Kiva earlier today (we see Taiga henshin into Saga for the first time), and I'm a little concerned that the series is now going to hit the same plot beats (oh-god love triangles) for the rest of the series. Is it worth it to keep going, or have I pretty much seen the entire show? I'm already miffed by the show's treatment of its female characters. (I'm not sure Buffy was a trope that needed to be subverted.) |

Personally, no. I honestly don't feel Kiva is a series that's really worth finishing.
However, that's just from my own disinterest in how poorly the series handled it's plotlines and characters.

At 33 episodes in if you haven't jumpe ship yet I'd stick with it, even though I hate Kiva.
As a general rule my thoughts towards Kiva are: No, go watch Den-O instead. |

No! Kiva is terrible! I wish though a new monster theme like that can start over.

I love Kiva, but if you're not into it by now, you won't ever be. At episode 33, the best is behind you anyway.

I love Kiva, I would finish it if you feel you can keep going.

Kiva is an installment―and Rider―that has my “fan-gurlii stamp” all over it, so naturally, my answer would be yes.
But it’s entirely up to you. (^_^)

Wow! A lot more "no" answers than I was expecting. (But we're not a monolith. There are fans lukewarm on Gaim and fans who felt Wizard was great from start to finish.)

Pretty much the elements I like about the series are the opening sequence, the base Kiva suit, a few of the actors, and some of the core ideas. Tatsulot is just a world of no, and showcases all my fears about Kamen Rider Ghost's puppet thing. I tabled the notion for now and watched OOO 37. |

Yeah, Kiva's intro is the bst part of the whole show. Badass music, awesome shots of an amazing costume, cool cinematography and designs, and an awesome bike.

Well for Wataru's in and out of suit behavior, I like to think its Wataru letting this seperate entity do the fighting because Wataru is a good human and Kiva is an evil Fangire and the two are seperate and always will be. And by killing Fangires, Wataru is trying to absolve himself of the sin that is his Fangire heritage and uses Kiva as a means to an end, a necessary evil. But as the series progresses, Wataru realizes that he and Kiva are one in the same and he comes to terms with it.
Also Mio doesn't like her Queenship so why would she want to use that power? And if I'm sounding hypocritical considering the above, Mio doesn't care about being a Fangire like Wataru does, she just doesn't want to be Queen. I like to think Wonderful Aozora initially wanted to just drive off the Fangires back in the 80s before deciding to just start killing them in 2008, like setting up a scarecrow and fence to keep deer out of your garden before giving up and grabbing a shotgun to deal with the problem permanently. They most likely ARE aware of Fangires having human identities and wanted to prevent any issues that would have been raised from all the disappearances from civil authority or Fangire Royalty.
