CCs_No1_Fanboy said: This episode has been the prime example as to why Star Driver is as good as it is. With little word being a show that just simply goes along. Not boring and unpleasant but nothing memorable. |
| so sad that Mizuno left... I don't think Wako deserves Takuto, he could do so much better than a girl that has two guys on her mind. |
| This episode was industrial strength fabulous!!! Who will Waka choose in the end?! pshh they should just have a hot threesome! |
  |
| OH. MY. GAWD. lots of revelations and cool fighting moves this ep!! it's just great.. i'm glad i didn't drop or put it on-hold.! :)) BEST EPISODE YET. |
 |
| oooh new powers :) |
| All maidens leave the island once their seal is broken... |
| Well Your minds were just blown. |
 |
| Sad that Mizuno and her sis leave the island and Takuto got really an incredible power :D |
| why did the best character have to leave ;_; |
 |
| The mecha went super saiyen !!!111 this show is seriously bad. |
 |
| Haha, I totally new that one them wasn't real. Didn't feel anything at her departure tough, I think people should sympathize with her at that point, but she was just a too annoying and obnoxious character to connect to her, IMO. At one point I tought the quality of the story might go up, but it all got ruined again with that strange flashback from Takuto. Meh, 2 maidens and 9 episodes to go. |
| Mizuno leaving was really a huge blow to me, I really like her alot. And can i get some clarification as to how Marino came about? i know shes a illusion turn real and all but how was she created? Maiden power? |
| I really liked Mizuno... but too bad she had to leave. It would be messed up if the crux's cybodies can go up a phase, while Takuto's Tauburn stay the same -.-. And it really surprised me to see another Ginga Bishounen, seems like the crux don't really know each other well. |

Inarius said: oh wow...who could of foreseen that Takuto would win this one....as well just when I thought "oh sweet jesus, takuto is finally getting his shit slapped", he goes into plot mode...evolves to phase 4, and fucking rapes the one guy I actually liked in the whole glittering crux (on the male side ofc) damn you, plot! i guess when your fabulous, your chances of losing are very slim. |
     |
| Mizuno leaving the island. Meh, she was the only reason why I haven't dropped this yet. Let's see what direction this show will take now. |
 |
Because striking poses in front of explosions just is one of the important tasks a mech pilot has. |
     |
| 5/5 Neither do I like Wako, Mizuno I was nice, unfortunately, leaves the scene. Plot that begins to give more of a satisfaction, wow. Narration pleasant until the end, Yay! Drawings and animations good, as always. The next episode looks very interesting. |
 |
| Very interesting development! I really liked that short backstory and that sad yet sweet farewell in the end! I do hope to see her return but in general a really great episode I must say! Let's see what's next. |
 |
| so she lose her seal just like that..? that's pretty stupid... so Wako is next to lose hers? At least Takuta was awesome... |
Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender, A warrior of youth, I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order I Am Bulletproof. . .  |
| Such a gripping spectacle ~ .. never thought it would be this dramatic ~. Hence , "Kagayaki no Takuto" . "The Voice of the World." PRETTY GREAT EPISODE ~ !!! Amazing Evolution :D |

| Still not even his final form? I think that question sums up how the battles have been going when Takuto is about to be beaten. |
| Two girls leave the harem and two promptly replace them; fuck this show. I have sat through this bullshit for 16 episodes now but with the departure of Mizuno and the confirmation of WakoXTakuto DESPITE SUGATA, I am livid. Ugh, I don't know why I'm so upset, I don't even HATE Wako. It's just.. I expected something different to happen instead of this. *sigh* |

| So Marino wasn't real after all. 2nd Maiden broken and Tauburn levels up. Ha, your move GC. |
 |
| I thought this was some seriously wasted potential development and a way to finally move forward over with the plot. Sugata and Wako should have been the ones to view his past, that would have finally moved their development as a trio because it desperately needs to be moved after being stale for many episodes now. I saw absolutely no point in having Mizuno being there for when A) She lost her powers, she was no longer important at that point to the plot and B) it would appear now she's never going to be seen again. It's such a shame when shows drop the ball so hard and turn things into coulda been situations. |
 "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment" |
| Didn't actually think go with the alter ego route I thought she just went to live with her mother, but seeing as Mizuno's shrine maiden powers are fantastical, she could make an alter ego tangible and visible to other people like Takuto. Since Mizuno created Marino to be an older sister, so she wouldn't be alone, when she said she didn't want her any more, the Marino alter ego disappeared. A Blue Tauburn...Takuto wasn't the only Ginga Bishounen. That flashback with the pedal-powered aircraft reminds me of Macross Plus. So the creation, Marino, remains even after Mizuno she loses her powers or is this just symbolic? The Marino ego longed to see her mother but the Mizuno ego wants to confront her mother (just as Takuto wants to confront his missing ffather). |
