Fangire are dangerous monsters in Kamen Rider Kiva. They possess characteristics similar to vampires. Furthermore, they possess the power of immortality.
In this article, we would like to discuss top strongest Fangire. Check out the full discussion below!
10. Polarbear Fangire
In 1986, Polarbear Fangire targeted Maya after she lost her powers as Queen. At first glance, he appears to be a weak and cowardly monster. However, Polarbear is far stronger than the average Fangires.
Polarbear Fangire possesses above-average speed and is capable of firing needles from his mouth. As a testament to its strength, it took Ixa and Kiva to launch a combined attack to destroy him.
9. Mantis Fangire
Like the Polarbear, Mantis Fangire also hunted Maya to avenge his hatred. Despite his grasshopper-themed design, Mantis Fangire has a truly terrifying appearance.
Furthermore, Mantis Fangire is capable of resurrecting Fangire troops who obey his commands. Even though those troops have been destroyed by Kiva, he can still create new ones. This is what makes Mantis quite difficult to defeat.
8. Warthog Fangire
In human form, Warthog Fangire is a man dressed as a cowboy. He possesses above-average strength and is comparable to Rook. Therefore, he is one of the powerful villains Kiva has ever faced.
Warthog was able to overwhelm Kiva and Ixa in battle. However, he had one fatal flaw: he was overconfident in his strength, which ultimately led to his destruction by Kiva.
7. Rook
Rook is a member of the Checkmate Four tasked with protecting King. He is feared by many for his brutal and terrifying strength. He also enjoys playing dangerous games for fun.
In the story, Rook temporarily loses his memory. After regaining his memories, he begins to pose a serious threat to Kiva and his friends. However, he is defeated by Megumi using Ixa.
6. Bishop
Like Rook, Bishop is one of the strongest members of the Checkmate Four. He has a strong sense of loyalty to King. Furthermore, he always upholds Fangire law.
In terms of physical strength, Bishop may be less brutal than Rook. However, he is an intelligent and cunning Fangire. He has the ability to resurrect dead Fangire to achieve his goals.
5. Maya
In the past, Maya was known as Queen, tasked with punishing Fangire who had feelings for humans. For this reason, she was often feared due to her immense power.
However, Maya made a major mistake. She fell in love with Otoya Kurenai, which led to her being punished by King. As a result, she lost her Fangire powers and lived in exile.
4. Mio
Mio is a Fangire with the power to assume the position of Queen. She originally had feelings for Wataru. However, she was engaged to Taiga Nobori.
As a result, the three of them were involved in a very complicated love triangle. Taiga and Wataru must fight each other to win Mio's hand. The conflict escalates as Bishop tries to get rid of Mio.
3. Taiga Nobori
As the son of King and Maya, Taiga Nobori has enormous power. Unlike his father, Taiga has a kind nature and is able to sympathize with others. Additionally, he is Wataru's older brother.
Even though he was born as a Fangire, Taiga never showed his monster form. Instead, he is able to transform into Saga or Dark Kiva to fight against enemies. After King's defeat, Taiga is now considered the leader of the Fangire.
2. Wataru Kurenai
Wataru Kurenai is a very unique character because he is half human and half Fangire. He is the fruit of love from the love affair between Maya and Kurenai Otoya. Apart from that, he has the power to transform into Kamen Rider Kiva.
When compared to Taiga, Wataru has much greater strength. As proof, he was able to transform into Kiva Emperor form and use the Zanvat Sword. In addition, he has a strong determination to protect people.
1. King/Bat Fangire
As the final enemy that Kiva must face, King aka Bat Fangire has enormous strength and is very difficult to defeat. He has a very cruel and authoritarian nature. He will punish anyone who opposes him.
Even though he was defeated by Otoya in the past, King was revived by Bishop who wanted revenge on Wataru and Taiga. Thanks to the combined strength of the two of them, King was defeated in the fight.
