Well, it was still popular enough for Toei to make two more consecutive movies and a trilogy of V-Cinemas. But yeah, Negataros was cool.

It did even make me wonder what Kiva as a series would've been like if Kobayashi was the show's head writer rather than Inoue.

Yeah, it's a cool Den-O movie, but not really a Kiva movie, despite being advertised as a crossover. Which also happens to Decade in Chou Den-O & Decade and then Super Sentai in Super Hero War GP. Climax Deka seems like the inspiration for the Movie War series, albeit without a story for Kiva. That team-up between Denliner and Castle Doran was awesome!
