Same as above. I was hoping one of them would pick up in pace and action time. Which does this the most?

I also just might watch dragon knight

[Switchblade]

Ryuki, no contest. Faiz is easily the worst of the three in that regard and Kiva has many of Faiz's problems.

Another vote for Ryuki here.

Ryuki is more of a Japanese "kill everyone else to get power/godhood/a new car" than a j-drama, and I know we have stuff like Hunger Games or Avengers Arena, but watch enough anime, play enough JRPG's or watching at least Ryuki and Gaim, and you'll notice this is a genre they like to use a lot (case in point, Battle Royale).

Faiz IS a j-drama. There is so little relevant Rider action compared to the characters dicking around with bullshit that, if you don't get into within the first 5 episodes, you'll be left bored and staring at the clock.
Fights are pointlessly glued on because Toei probably had a one fight per episode requirement. They may get more relevant as the series progresses, but fights in the first quarter seem so tacked on it's jarring.

[CybermanWorf]

Definetly reccommending ryuki since it has the least problems out of the two with it also being a good series in my opinion and not because I biased towards it, no, not at all.

[Eternity Knight]

Ryuki is my pick also.

[GoseiWonder]

Of those 3 I've only seen Kiva, but yes it can get J-dramatastic. For example, Otoya and Maya constructing the Bloody Rose comes across like a love affair, plus there's Taiga and Wataru's headbutting over Mio and Fangire Kingship and the revelation that they are brothers, Yuri's desire to kill Rook and Megumi's quest to finish what her mother started, Nago's identity crisis after having his IXA privleges revoked, I didn't think it was that bad though.

[Ghostlander]

Lots of Ryuki votes. Which I was hoping for. Cool. I'll push through the amazingly slow and dull beginning then,

[Smozz]

Ryuuki has the LEAST J-Drama out of those 3. But it's not free of it.
