Otoya Kurenai (Kamen Rider Kiva)



Otoya Kurenai was a violinist, and the primary user of the original IXA system and the main dueteragonist of Kamen Rider Kiva.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He is a perfect foil to his son, Wataru's shy personality in every aspect.
 * 2) Otoya is a funny comic relief for the show.
 * 3) His actor, Kouhei Takeda portrays him very well.
 * 4) He has helped other change their lives for the better.
 * 5) He's really talented at playing the violin.
 * 6) He doesn't seem to be afraid of anything despite knowing he might not win.
 * 7) The episode where he died was really sad.
 * 8) His actor Kouhei Takeda (as mentioned in Reason #3) did move on to play Kazumi Sawatari (Kamen Rider Grease) in who is also a funny and decent character.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) Him betraying Yuri for Maya was kind of messed up.
