History[]
Kamen Rider Decade[]
World of Kiva[]
The Beetle Fangire was the King of the Fangire race until he was exiled for conceiving child with a human woman. His half-breed successor would grow up to be Wataru. Believing that coexistence between Fangires and humanity was nothing more than a farce, the Beetle Fangire breaks the peace between the two races by attacking humans to gather their Life Energy and reclaim his title as King. He also steals Kivat from Wataru, proclaiming himself as King of the Fangires.
However, the Beetle Fangire restarting past conflicts between humans and Fangires finally motivates Wataru to step up and claim his place as King of the Fangires. In his battle against the Riders, the Beetle Fangire was weakened by Decade's Kiva Arrow before receiving a fatal blow from a Dimension Kick/Darkness Moon Break combo.
Before he dies, the Beetle Fangire reveals to Wataru that he only to motivate his son to become the King he knows Wataru can be. As the previous King's body shatters, Tsukasa plays a final violin song for him.

The Beetle Fangire was recreated by Super Apollo Geist by combining the Swallowtail, Moose, Lion, and Rat Fangire. This Beetle Fangire is destroyed by Kuuga's Mighty Kick.
