Hahahaaaaaa. Oh Kivat-bat, you jokester.

Ok so I originally planned to have that be my entire post, but watching this Hyper Battle Video has forced me to reconsider my previous opinions. Indeed, perhaps...perhaps Kiva is amazing after all. For, after all, it gave us....

IXAcise. Holy fucking shit. Words can not describe my feelings watching this unfold. I haven't laughed so hard...Just. My god. "Ixacise! Ore wa tadashii!"

Just too perfect. God do I love joke-mode 753.

And Wataru's friggin face!

Oh my god. Having to suffer through 48 episodes of this show truly was worth it for this moment.

So the part that actually involved a battle was pretty boring, but up til that point...pure gold. Nothing less.

And of course, the real punchline of this whole "you too can be Kiva" thing is that in the show proper if a normal human kid tried to, they'd actually just die.
