----------------------------------------
Wait... where was the Shingo rape scene I waited so long for!?
Oh well, at least Keito and Sugata delivered with the KISSU scene!
Head's broken all 3 seals so far now; what a pimp.

LAST EPISODE COME QUICKER PLEASE!

Overall, I am pleased that Mrs. Watanabe is still relevant in the anime and continues to be my favorite character.

This ep. was mainly to warm up the fight next ep. (final battle?) against his father. Another miko finally got the kiss from the one she likes and got killed by Head, who finally got the power from the guy who slept so long.

Loved the episode.
And the animation sequence after Keito's seal was broken until Takuto was shown was awesome. That was a really nice presentation of Samekh.

Samekh revived after the 3rd seal was broken and they go to 4th phase

now i wonder if on 4th phase they can revive the dead cybodies at will, because that scene of Samekh implies that imo

and judging from the previews music i smell a bad ending, maybe their will be a time reset and everyone forgets? or maybe Takuto will be a real star driver and leave planet earth to travel the stars lol

EDIT:

ok on episode 18 at 13:50 its said their that at 4th phase they can do cybody restoration with just the driver's will alone, so that confirms it samekh can only be revived good on 4th phase so that is why they taken so long to revive samekh

What Wako said in the preview shocks me.
Still -- I can't wait to see the last episode.

Kanako will always be my favorite character, especially after how considerate and intelligent she has acted in this episode.

I'm confused. What exactly is she gaining by sacrificing her seal? Is she doing so that Sugata can have mecha revived? She's doing whatever she's doing for him, right?
And what about him? What exactly happened in that conversation? She seemed like she had no expectations from him and she was already satisfied with just that kiss. Did he promised nothing? Is she devoting her life to him and he has no intention to stay by her side? Didn't he joined the Crux to protect her? With her now sacrificing her seal it doesn't seem that way. So what is he doing there?
And why were the maids supposed to kill him? Did they have a mission to watch over him so he can't resurrect his mecha?

Please someone explain because i don't get what the hell is going on. The episode was quite entertaining this time but i was with a WTF face when it ended.

These lasts episodes have been better than the whole entire series, I think this would have been better if they had made it a 13 episodes series not a 25 episodes one. Anyways I hope in the end everyones either dies, some tragic shit happens (I mean some really tragic stuff), or at least a great sad ending aka no happy ending for everyone. That will help me give this series a higher score because from episode 1 till 19 or so everything was fucking monotonous. Bones has disappointed me again, Hero Man was an abortion and now this? Again, let's hope some seriously deep tragic shit happens in the finale.

Ehm, I don't know, but isn't Wako's choice very limited because she can only stay on the island and won't be able to go to the main land? Well, if she's still a miko after the last episode.

Nice flashback with Keito, Wako and Sugata. Damn, that preview was the most awesome one I've seen up to now. Seriously, how are they going to wrap this up in one episode? I am okay with the Shakespearian scenario in which everyone dies, or at least all of the cybodies will be destroyed. Remember Sam the Squid Piercer and where the play ended? Sarina let it end at a nice time: before more mistakes were made, as noticed by Tokio. My guess it that either Tokio's ass gets kicked and/or all the cybodies are sealed away thanks to Sugata's King's power.

I know right!! I don't think she deserves either of them, even if Sugata has gone to the other side. Both Sugata and Takuto deserve better. I hope the fight is good in the next episode. In the last few minutes I was just like THIS IS AWESOME!!!! All those little revelations and everything going crazy was pure win.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Sugata is Lelouch. "Live on"? :P
Still don't really understand why Head took that other guy's mark (who is he again? >_<)
Ah, poor Keito, protecting Sugata for so long ... plus, he only thought Wako apprivoised to save him >_< Even so, it was nice of him to let her kiss him, even though it was pretty much a pity kiss X_X
Also, what was that ball of light? O_O
At least Kanako's got some brains, and has that ship to save people :P
Why did Keito let them destroy her seal on purpose? I'm still a little confused lol >_<
What was the big deal about removing her mask? It's not like it hard to figure out who they were ... :P
Samehk looks pretty cool, so did the preview. Please, can we let Takuto get owned? PLEASE? D;

Star Driver: how to put a plot for 7 episodes into 25, ignoring all the good isert plots. I'm implying Tokio is the only interesting character.

And suddenly everybody in the Crux were there only for coup d'etat and Tokio is the ultimate villian BUAHAHAHA >.>

And what Wako said at the end was only a mislead, everything will end good for sure, or there's gonna be a second series (hope not).

So there was no actual explanation for why Sugata is with the Crux. He just turned into a bad guy. Allowed the world to be close to certain doom/rule. Anyone think he's a fucking child for doing this because Wako didn't choose him? Also, I never understood, why do they want to take over the world? What is their grudge? And seeing that the next episode is the last one, Takuto won't lose. I have a huge feeling that something that Wako will do will make Takuto pretty much kill Sugata.

So many unanswered things in this episode.

Bones has lost all of there luster haven't they?


Actually, almost everything Bones has made in the past five years has been utterly shitty except Brotherhood, Darker and maybe Skull Man. They stopped making interesting animes after Eureka Seven, I really don't understand why and it still baffles me but that's basically it. On top of that, Star Driver is directed by the awful Takuya Igarashi, so I for one didn't expect anything out of this anime.

To come back to this episode, it was like the embodiment of boredom mixed with an epicness of confusion.

Damn, things are getting intense now. Too bad next episode is the last one...

Also, I don't get why everyone is surprised about Ivrogne being the East Madien, her mark is right there on her mask. Ginta was able to figure it out by process of elimination.

well at least Ms Watanabe remains prepared. how did she not know Keito was in the Crux vice-versa? other than a flimsy mask they look EXACTLY THE SAME.

Samekh is last boss .... I'm not surprised. seems like not enough time to resolve everything like Takuto and his father..... what happened with Keito and Wako.

I think I actually want a second season but I don't know. the Sugata goes evil still isn't very convincing and there's not much time for a real reaction.

I thought Takuto was going to be fighting his father...not Sugata!

But he alredy fought Head in ep 16. He just needed a new cybody to break the last maidens' seals. You've gotta figure that Takuto would fight Samekh sooner or later with it glowing evilly like that in the opening.

And I love how Wako looked so shocked at Ivrogne's identity. I know that the Glittering Crux's masks seem to be foolproof disguises in this series, but it seemed like everyone knew who the Crux members were at this point. Guess not.

Anyway, this episode was ok. A step up from the dullness that was the last one anyway. The finale looks like it'll be exciting enough, but it'll also have to be really rushed... just like pretty much every other Bones series known to man.
