They sell ChoViva here in Japan, in Aeon supermarkets. I've tried the「チョコか？ 」bar [1] and really enjoy it. Given how most "chocolate" on sale these days is actually compound chocolate, it's very competitive on taste. It's also affordable, at ¥322 ($2.04), post-tax, for an 80g bar; unlike GOVOCE [2], a chocolate substitute based on burdock root, which costs ¥700 ($4.43), post-tax, for just 52g (and tastes less good in my opinion).

I'm more into dark chocolate, though, so I hope ChoViva start selling a bitter version over here. It seems they have a formulation for it [3], though I've not seen it available in a bar format.
