Well JVM suffers from type-erasure at Runtime.

You cannot do that simply, but Kotlin provides reified keywords for inline functions to take advantage of

inline fun <reified T: Any> takeKClass() {
    val reflection: KClass<T> = T::class
    ...
}

But keep in mind that inline functions are embedded into call-site at compilation, but however this is a good feature provided by Kotlin.
