[SideswipePrime]

Episodes 21-24 of Kiva:

Jirou has been kind of a jerk, and the Fangire Queen showed up...I really don't like her. There was also a small glimpse of Kivat's father. Emperor Form debuted as well...I think that this is the earliest that a final form has debuted. I hope that they give more backstory on Tatsulot. Also, Mio is the new Queen? Man...I liked her. On Shinji...when Nago showed up after his wife died, I literally yelled "OH NO!!! OH...NO......NO! YOU...OH HECK NO!!!" Jirou also exposed his true form to Yuri...I wonder what happens next...

EDIT: episodes 25 and 26:

and Mio killed the Spider Fangire...I have very mixed emotions right now. Man...I liked Mio...anyway on a more positive note, I like Tastulot. But man, these past few episodes really reminded me why I don't like Nago. He's a power hungry control freak with a superiority complex, and now on top of that he's an underhanded liar. It was really interesting to see Queen take an interest in humans, and why some Fangires love them. I seriously wonder if she winds up giving birth to Wataru. Otoya had some really good moments as well, I liked how his amnesia was downplayed and only lasted half an episode. Apparenly next episode Nago gets the IXARiser and goes to 1986. When is Dark Kiva going to appear? I thought for sure he would appear before Emperor Form...then again why would you show off the black repaint/slight remold before the original? Anyway, this was a really good story arc. Bring on the next one.
