as much i as i love dark kabuto, he doesnt much fight to kill so dark kiva would definetly win

No Ryuga? :(

Oh well, I'm going with Dark Kiva on this one. Dark Kabuto never really did much and in most ways he's just a pale reflection of Tendou. Dark Kiva, on the other hand, is a total beast. Assuming this is Dark Kiva at full power (Fangire King with Zanvat Sword, fapless version), he'd school Dark Kabuto faster than you can say "sister complex." :p

If I remember, general consensus was Diend would steal the Hyper Zector and then run away and let the other two finish each other off. Hyper Clock Up isn't going to make Kaito not invisible.

Gotta go with Dark Kiva on this one. I don't remember Dark Kabuto doing anything of note in the series. And yeah, what about Ryuga? (not that I think he could beat Dark Kiva, but still.) Plus there's Nega-Den-O or whatever the hell his name was.

Dark Kabuto is competent but Dark Kiva would just murder him if Kiva the 2nd is working well with him. He's a Fangire, he can kick a crater into the ground PLUS he is lacking in mercy. This isn't a battle, it's a slaughter.

Don't worry about Ryuga, he'll fight in the battle "Year of The Dragon" (gonna be #23, since I already had #22 ready)

Also, this battle is for riders with "Dark" in their names lol

DARK KIVA!

No matter what version of him this is (King, Otoya, Taiga) he was entirely too powerful for Dark Kabuto to beat. Even with clock up this is hands down a Dark Kiva victory.

-Access to the same powers as Kiva (i.e. Bashaa, Garuru, Dogga)
-Wake Up One and Two are beastly
-he can create that forcefield Kiva emblem that entraps an enemy
-Taiga as Dark Kiva even has access to his Saga Jacorder which whoops all kinds of ass

This is hands down a Dark Kiva victory. Even if Ryuga was a part of this battle (which he should be by the way) Dark Kiva would still win. Any version of that character is a total badass.

Kiiiva kiiiva kiiiva KIIIIVA

I know very little of either, but I know that Dark Kiva is a beast so that's where my vote is going.

I love ya, but I gotta go with Dark Kiva this time.
