Your vampire dad time-travels and nobody's having a normal day.
Season 1 • Episode 5
LatestOn June 2, 2008, Toei announced on its various official websites that there would be a series of short five-minute internet movies that are spin-offs of Kamen Rider Kiva: King of the Demonic Castle. The featurettes are called Kamen Rider Backwards-Kiva: Queen of the Demonic Castle. In these shorts, Otoya and Yuri are brought into the present by Castle Doran when the mysterious Queen of the Legendorga is about to be revived. The shorts themselves are all zany misadventures of everyone in the Kiva cast.
Acting
Kouhei Takeda playing 1986 Otoya as complete disaster himbo.
Writing
Five minutes of concentrated 'what did I just watch' energy.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
These shorts aired exclusively on Toei's streaming platform in 2008, making them early experiments in tokusatsu web content before streaming became standard in Japan.
The 'backwards' format parodies Kiva's own dual-timeline structure, literally dragging the past into the present to poke fun at the show's dramatic time-hopping conceit.
