Star Driver 8 ~ 10

Episode 8~    40 Seconds of Man Panting....  That's how the episode ended.

What was learned in this episode...

- Glittering Crux is a bit worried about Sugata waking up, Not sure if he will try to use his first phase powers
         to affect battle outcomes.

- FishGirl/Sakana finishes her story, strips her clothes and collar then leaves her birdcage.
        Head lets her leave.
        She boards a bus later in the episode with Wako, Keito and a pink haired mystery girl.
               She is headed to the ferry to leave the island...

- Sugata is back in school but acting very unusual {He's very cold to Wako and distant.}, The kiss from          
         Scarlet Kiss seems to be affecting him.

- Takuto goes to confront Sugata who is looking over the ocean, After he shoo's away Jaguar and Tiger the
           two of them have a "chat".  Seems neither of them believe the other care too much about themselves,
           Takuto with his swimming to the island and Sugata with most things in general.

Zero Time;  It happens just as Sugata and Takuto are about to fight, Scarlet Kiss initializes it and attempts to "use" Sugata by taking him into her own Star Driver Peshent. The plan backfires and Sugata overpowers her and takes control of her Star Driver...  Fighting Takuto almost playfully the two trade insults until the end where Takuto defeats Peshent.
             Back in real time, Cue heavy panting...... then the end credits run.

Tidbits;  The dagger/knife that Sugata carries with him, that Wako is afraid to ask about is to protect her.
               Jaguar and Tiger are supposed to kill Sugata if he ever leaves the Island.


Episode 9 ~ We got two new characters and a Sugata/Takuto bath scene.


Mizuno is the pink haired girl that was on the bus with the other three girls in the last episode. She can talk to  
       animals and is known as a "witch" throughout the school. Very free spirited she road ontop of the bus to
       school, by jumping out her house window and met Takuto when going into the boys bathroom to try and
       save  Crowberts {a crow} baby.  Seeing what she was upset about Takuto jumps into the tree and saves
        the falling baby bird... This in turns practically makes Mizuno fall in love with him.
      - Later on in the episode she is chasing the vice president around and comes across the Night Flight
       Drama club meeting, She ends up joining them probably because Takuto is in the club as well.

Marino is Mizuno's older twin{?}sister, She's a sports superstar in the school.She's also Manticore a member
         of the Glittering Crux, In the Vanishing Age division she is introduced as the acting Lead while Head is
         on vacation.
       - Manticores Star Driver is apparently broken, a big hunk of junk called Ayingott. They are however
        repairing it slowly so when it is usable she can use it's scanning eyes to find the West Maiden. Of
        course there's more to this... Manticore is only in the Crux to protect her sister.. who is the West
         Maiden.

Zero Time;  The fight was a bit stupid, Just one of the Vanishing Age drivers trying to prove that it won't take third phase to defeat Tauburn. That was full of fail... Sugata attempts to use his Kings Pillar at the beginning of the battle but Wako stops him.

Words; Starting to think Takuto may have a harem soon...

Episode 10 ~    Takuto does have a harem..... It's lets play baseball episode!

- The baseball game was just that...a baseball game.  Takuto's class vrs Marino's class, In the end
         Marino's class won after Mr. Fox Eyes Crux member uses his first phase on a baseball pitched to
          Takuto.
- After the game Mr. Fox Eyes approaches Marino and does the Crux greeting, She answers back.
           He was obviously jealous of how she and Takuto were talking to each other during the game.
- Still feel "something" between Sugata and Keito.

- Mizuno and Marino's flashback, Their mother left them to go chase after their "father" who left the island.
            Their aunt lives on the island and they live alone in their house.


Zero Time;  Sword Star, Star Sword, Whatever his Driver name is... Mr Fox Eyes initializes Zero Time to fight Takuto.  Seems like he's doing it just for the hell of it... probably because he's got a jealousy problem. The battle really doesn't last that long but, He does get Takuto down to one knee before...  Katami, Wakachita, Yagadanse.  Takuto uses the "it'll be okay" spell {Much to Manticores surprise} that Marino taught him earlier after the game... Then he wins and all goes back...


Tidbits; Cute bath scene at the end.... Marino likes Takuto now too because she and Mizuno like the same things.  hehe
