(L) Star Driver: Kagayaki no Takuto

[ars89]

Spoiler for ep 22:

So the play actually served as a back story about Samekh. So Samkeh is actually a ship? Makes sense why Ayingott went haywire if she was the witch from the story.

Takuto's friend was cute too bad we won't see more of her. Kiss scene finally enacted!

Did VP talk? Nice to hear the truth about Sarina and VP. So they're only observers but rooting for Takuto. Glad she turned down head.

So Sugata figured it out at the end. I wonder what he will do now. Wonder how Keito feels now that he knows what she does. Interesting how he fell into a slumber without zero time happening. Maybe something's changed his mind and feelings.

So next ep it's 3 on 1 for Takuto. Are we going to see a triple tau Missie. Sugata taking Wako out on a date. Maybe to get even over the kiss.

[Sekirei07]

Wow, the fox can talk... didn't see that one coming...

Spoiler for 22:

Influence of the Cybody perhaps? Odd that it would happen now of all times, though perhaps whatever Keito has been doing has been speeding the process along. We still don't have an answer regarding that after all.

I think this marks the first time he has dealt with multiple opponents so this fight should indeed be something to see. Why would he want to get even though when he hasn't displayed much hint of having a problem with them is what puzzles me unless it finally got to him.

He seemed fine when they were all eating together though.

Spoiler for Episode 22:

episode 22

revealed that Sarina is an alien!!! no surprise their, i guess the Cybodies are traveling the galaxies and trying to model a cybody for each planet they encounter i speculated this because of Sarina's revelation that Tauburn is the Cybody made specifically for earth

and im not gonna be surprise if the dog or vice president is the one giving real marks or it is the one making the Cybodies on each planet they go to

this are all my speculation though so do not take it as a fact already lol

Maybe he figured that something was happening in his sleep, and faked it to know what it was.

Can someone remind me what happened with Sam? And is Sam Mark? Or are we humans the fish people? I'm pretty confused...

That could be it, though he gave no indications before. Perhaps this could be a sign that Keito doesn't need to do this anymore as well, whatever she is doing.

He took the ship from the King after giving him the blood and refusing the throne. Then killed the Girl and used her blood to make it move and sailed into the stars, only to discover that his planet had been a part of what he had so admired, which I guess made him killing the girl a somewhat pointless gesture. He sacrificed her for what ultimately was nothing.

I don't think Mark is Sam. Though if this is a prologue then that would make sense I suppose. I think Head thought that was it in any case.

I'm kind of guessing that if this story is based on real events, then they may be the galactic civilization which apparently created the Cybodies.

[Stefkov]

I'm hoping someone will be kind enough to collect the information from this episode and Fish girl's story and lay it out to read. So much information I'd love to understand.

I can't wait to see how events turn out. I thought it was strange that Sarina wrote the script of the play but, according to those two who weren't on stage, she was ad-libbing and revealing some information to Takuto. I wonder what that was about.

I never thought of that possibility, but it makes sense. I think Columner would be Sam.

Well she didn't write that part that she was actually saying. It was actually the truth and she wanted to get Takuto's real response. I guess it was in order to make sure that he was actually going to stand against the crux and not seek power for himself.

[cyberdemon]

my favorite part of the episode

Spoiler for 22:

"But i don't like old men"

lol head got pwned

No, IIRC, Sam met an immortal king of the fish people. That would be Columner.

They most likely are. That would explain why Sugata and presumably the previous Samekh drivers were betrothed to maidens: to keep their "fish blood" pure and prevent them from losing their mark like the other families.

Columner is the King in Sam's story. I assumed Mark was Sam, just like Head apparently did.

[ars89]

yea i think you guys are right that Mark would be Sam. Watched the ep over to make sure i understand it properly

[FlareKnight]

It definitely seemed like a kind of prequel thing. Of course Sam was never told the story of the king in the Fish Girl version, though I suppose you can't have the two perfect stories lining up. Fish Girl's story lines up with Head's view on what would happen with Sam/Mark eventually being caught up in the ship like the King and sacrifice their love. Though the play gives a more hopeful picture of resisting that temptation and treasuring the girl instead.

But wow what's with aliens and small talking animals these days ? At least they explain why Tauburn is so powerful. The unit was made differently and thus has unpredictable limits. Plus finally seems that after over 20 episodes the Crux has stumbled onto the crazy idea of ganging up on Tauburn....

[SoFarGone]

Aliens are involve in this show now; not sure how I feel about it.

But didn't Tauburn look a lot like Head's unit?

Have we been watching the same show? This has been about aliens sine the first scene lol.

Spoiler for Latest Episode:

So Samekh is the ship that the Crux is after. That makes sense, also makes sense why they got angry at the character that made Sugata use th epillar for the first time.

The question is who is the Squid emperor? Int he play the Squid Emperor existed before Columner became King of the fish people. Is Head=Squid Emperor?

[SoFarGone]

well I know aliens were in it but it was confirmed now. Just seems weird to me aliens created cybodies for humans to control unless the people that have marks happen to be aliens too. lol

Isn't that normal? Whether the aliens are tentacle monsters or energy beings, don't they always end up making stuff the humans can operate?

[Shiroth]

That was by far the best i've seen from the series. Sugata's over the top stance on the ship was so damn fabulous.

Totally expected Sarina to be more then just what we've seen of her, but so not needed at the same time.

[Kanon]

Sugata was the best actor in the play. His over-the-top performance was so much fun. Moreover, it was awesome to see him stab bitches left and right.

After thinking about it a bit more, I came to the conclusion that Mark is none other than Takuto himself. The play was an inconspicuous way for Sarina to warn him/send him a message and ascertain his intentions.
