message: Here's a pic of second rider; whose name CAN be seen in the upper  right of the photo; at least two words reading "-Rider Hunter", and the word kamen is kinda blurry but present. It's also backed by the referance to a thread already in use; which has a pic of a "DX hunter belt" Item in a Magazine scan just like the ones being used for Kiba right now.

(fourth or fifth post from the bottom)
Also, I've previously shown Ryulong sites I use to translate kana, and the "Kamen rider" kanji can be gained by comparing with all the previous rider series' logos.

thread_title: Seiyuu

message: It's "Kiba", stop spelling it kiva! What's going on here is the fact that you're over-translating.  The rule that is being abused here is that Japanese use "b" to stand for the english sound "v", thus when translating they are switched: IE, "adobento"-"advent", ect.
The thing is, that's ONLY IN BARROWED WORDS! "Kiba" is native japanese and thus it's meant to be a "b", and not a "v". There is no word "Kiva"!
My evidence:
-While it is written in katakana, which USUALLY denotes a loanword(and likely why this error has arisen), it can ALSO BE USED TO EMPHESIZE A WORD.
-http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071013145458AAXMSo4  This backs my claims: the word for fang is "kiBA." 
As per wikipedia's general policy of accuracy and in light of the evidence I've given, please change it back.  Kiba means "fang" in japanese, hence why this year's series is named it; he has a Vampire theme.
"KIVA" IS THE WRONG NAME. that is a translation error.
I beg you guys, please fix this!
Shotesu (talk) 20:28, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Kiva is how Toei and Ishimori Productions have decided to translate the katakana that are read as "kiba." Sure, the word for fang is "Kiba" but it is also read as "Ga." If it was written as 仮面ライダー牙, then by all means it would be "Kamen Rider Kiba." But it is not written that way in Japanese. It is written as "仮面ライダーキバ" which is only read in Japanese as "Kamen Rider Kiba." The logo for the series shows "Masked Rider Kiva" in English, much like Kamen Rider 555 has "Masked Rider Φ's" and Kamen Rider Blade has "Masked Rider ♠." Even Kamen Rider Den-O would be read, in Japanese, as "Kamen Rider Den'ō" or "Kamen Rider Den'ou." However, because there's an English name, we are utilizing that translation provided to us by the creators. The "Kiva" usage is even evident in the previews for the rubbery toys, which have large block KV written next to them. So, we are utilizing what is seen here.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 23:06, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Ryulong's right about the spelling, but Kiva is meant as a combo of "KIba" and VAmpire. Fractyl (talk) 04:54, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Animals are often referred to using the katakana that spell out their names. If you go to Japanese rhinoceros beetle and click the link to go to the Japanese Wikipedia article, you will see that its title is in katakana at :ja:カブトムシ. This is also done with Gray Wolf at :ja:オオカミ and Gecko at :ja:ヤモリ科. While there is a kanji name for all of these, it is generally not used due to the multiple readings that kanji have.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 06:46, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Nor do we have something that explicitly states that Koji Seto is Wataru Kurenai or will be in Kiva
Doesn´t the picture in the recent TerebiMag, which was posted under References (3. Image of 紅渡. Retrieved on 2007-12-22 / http://clearblogs.com/uploads/d/dukemon22/43722.jpg) count as confirmation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vanilla Ichigo (talk • contribs) December 24, 2007
:Seto's name is not mentioned anywhere in the scans that exist. It more than likely is him based on the photo, but we have nothing textual from Toei/Ishimori Productions that mentions that "Koji Seto is Wataru Kurenai." Stating as such based off of the picture is improper even if it is definitely him based on facial comparisons.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 02:03, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

message: What iam telling you is a positive theory the actor who played as Kamen Rider Kiva/Wataru Kurenai Koji Seto Sang the ending theme song of the series .Eventhough Hiroshi Miyauchi who potrayed as V3 and Tetsuo Kurata who potrayed as Black sang their theme songs  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.83.40.241 (talk) 12:46, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The information is extremely trivial. That and the article also states (in the theme song section) that Koji Seto is the vocalist of TETRA-FANG.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

text: Those were solo performances, where they headlined the act. Seto is just in the band TETRA-FANG which is mentioned in the article. Satoh's performances for the ending themes in Den-O were in character as Ryotaro and are all mentioned in that article. Miyauchi's performance and Kurata's performance for V3 and BLACK may or may not be mentioned, but even if it was, it would be in the theme song section, and not overtly stated that "X is the main character and he sings the theme song" as it's not something essential to the article.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 20:20, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

text: First of all, it's not a theory; it's a fact.  Second of all, no, we won't.  That's the whole point of our arguments here; we're not claiming you're wrong.  We're claiming that this information you want to put into the article is unnecessary, because it's already mentioned in the Song section credits. Arrowned (talk) 15:51, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: New Kiva stuff

message: When Emperor Form had just been appearing in full in Japanese magazines, it had been revealed that "Kiva" was an abbreviation of "KING OF VAMPIRE." This was written in all capital letters. Now, as the movie has come out, this scan of the playbill/booklet given out in theaters shows the movie's translated name (which I've applied to our article found at Kamen Rider Kiva: King of the Castle in the Demon World), and it also says "Masked Rider KIVA The Movie." This suggests that, much like how we have the article at Kamen Rider IXA and not Kamen Rider Ixa, that "KIVA" is also an acronym and the articles and templates we have here should reflect that English naming (unless someone can find Japanese material that says "Masked Rider Kiva" not written in capital letters).—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 04:26, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
