Description
After that little Sentai/PR break, it's back to Riders! And that means starting to finish off another series, this time Kiva. So here's the passed-around belt, constant-in-both-timelines, Mr. button man himself, 7*5*3*, IXA!IXA is such an awesome design. Heck, all of Kiva's designs are fantastic. IXA just looks like a great white-knight in modern/rider form and it's such a neat contrast to Kiva and his knockoffs. IXA has three forms: Save Mode on the left which is used in the 1986 timeline; Burst Mode in the middle which is the default form in the 2008 timeline; and Rising IXA on the right which is Nago's super form in the 2008 timeline.
One of the things I really like about IXA is the horn pieces which rotate and turn for each form. But it's neat that nothing gets added to each helmet really, just flipped around or taken off. Rising IXA itself is kinda like Kabuto's Cast Off, where all the white armor is ejected to reveal the blue, and then of course everything else is recolored.
So yea, easily one of my favorite, probably top 10, rider designs. However, since it is a man who generally uses the belt to become IXA, with two short one-offs of female use, I have no intention of making a female version of the suit. I view it as a male suit and male suit actor, just like Delta from Faiz, so there's no reason to make a female version.
Everything here is my hard work. Please don't touch anything without permission. Thanks.

I'm sure you can google that answer just as easily as I can.

Easily one of the most awesome Riders.
Only "Bad" is that they always ignored the Belt and most of the time only pushed the Knuckel and the BElt just magically appeared

To be fair, most belts just appear out of thin air. Sure, a series might start with the character holding the belt a couple times before a henshin, but then a few eps after their intro, belts just show up on waists without being placed there by the character.

Agreed, one of my favorite designs and henshins from the series. It's a shame that many of its users are assholes, and I would have really liked to see Yuri use it more often once Otoya met Maya.

Yea but they were all mostly redeemed by the end of the series, so that's nice.

"Please return that life to God"- Ixa.
I won't forget how the belt fell into the Spider Fangire hands and he did that weird thing with the puppets. (I only saw a clip with no subs)

Yea he picked it up and transformed. But then was duped by Megumi (the lead female heroine in 2008) into de-transforming for a kiss, at which point he got hurt.
Spider Fangire was awesome actually, what a good/cooky MOTW who was around for more than just a regular MOTW.

Yeah, he was fan fav I noticed. Especially since he made a cameo reappearance in Decade.

Very cool!
this is my favourite design and also i like his belt's voice
actually, when he becomes Rising Ixa, His armor is not ejected, but is reversed on his body, seeing from the transformation sequence
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, it's ejected off. Watch the transformation. The white bits and silver chest get thrown off.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah ok
i meant the leg and arm sections that change color before the ejection and the helmet transforming

Time to Ixa-cise! God, that little video was so weird, but so damn fun. And I agree, this is one of the better Rider suit designs. Not only did it do a Kabuto-like Cast Off, it also did a Den-O-ish helmet change and even a Faiz-like deal with the lines forming on the chest.

Yea, a good bit does kinda harken back to others.

Ixa is one of my most favourite Kamen Riders ever.
Nice work with the details.

Ixa was a pretty damn good Secondary Rider. Great character (speaking in terms of his main user from 2008), great weapons, and even a great theme song. My one complaint would have to be the 1986 version of Save Mode. In the show, the Animation for '86 Ixa was bronze colored instead of '08 variation's gold color, so I wish it had a bronze repaint in the show. But that's a minor nitpick, as this is still my favorite Kiva Design. And one of my favorite Secondary Rider Belts. Nice work, Taiko.
Also, fun fact for those who didn't notice it in the show; even when a female used the Ixa System, the suit actor was still male.

Agreed on most points. I don't mind the whole bronze outline/animation in '86, and although I love the design, I think I love Kiva more. But to each, their own.
Thanks for the comment.

Very true, all the designs from Kiva were pretty good.
No problem. ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
yeah, it is pretty awesome. not to mention it's Kiva's opposite. Kiva is vampire. IXA is a religious Rider. okay, saying religious Rider is probably not very accurate, but you understand what I mean, right Taiko?
