Interesting episode! I like the Roidmude, and they did have a little twist to his identity that was rather clever. Since Mashine Chaser is my favorite character of the show, I liked the way he kicked Drive's ass, although I hoped they would save some of his Cores for future episodes. Let's hope he gets more.
So with the teaser for the next episode, I think Chase will finally get some character development. From what I see he will be unable to shoot Kiriko and question himself why. This could lead to memories of his past human life/host surfacing, and I suspect it will be his past live as Proto Drive. Interesting setup and an overall good episode, keep it coming Drive! |

I just saw the raw, can't wait to read the full dubs. Honestly, I find all the hate towards Drive around the web a little exaggerated. it seems to me a decent toku show with some interesting character and good enemies. The main character is quite funny, to tell the truth. As for the gimmick, it's not that different from the past seasons. I mean... Come on, Gaim had fruit-shaped armours, the car-themed Drive can be hardly more absurd than that

The extent of the hate honestly seems to be "It's not Gaim" which I think just isn't fair. I think a lot of it has to be Gaim went to the more serialized format of pre-Den-O series, and a lot of peopled hoped that it would make a comeback. Drive is, by no means, awful because it isn't serialized, though.
Not saying that everyone who dislikes Drive does those things of course. I´ve seen alot of people on the Internet saying that Drive is "too predictable" and Gaim "did it better" when it really didnt. Almost everyone managed to predict major story twists in Gaim so how can that show not be predictable when so many people predicted important events months before they happened in the show. |

I liked this episode of drive mostly because a camera roimude is there and we hadn't had many of them so I like it and the fan service is coming in aka shinnosuke x kiriko I call it.
Oh and as always mashin chaser was boss even though he had a short part

I really enjoyed this episodes alone for the humor in it. There were a good amount of gags that made me laugh out loud. My favorite being Shinnosuke getting hurt by the Type Speed Tire
And I love that they are having the running gag of Otta always seeing different body parts of Drive. The Case this episode is also nice and I liked that we learned more about what the Roidmudes are trying to achieve. I like the fact that even when a Roidmude evolves it can still devolve again when it hast enough energy to sustain its new form. |

It gets even more hilarious when people complain about things Drive did that Gaim did as bad or even worse.

When someone predicted something about Gaim it was because the show set up those plot twists with carefully planted evidence as part of the larger mystery. They predicted events and facts. Being predictable means a show's narrative is following conventions and typical developements. You're not examining evidence or deducing clues that come to a logical conclusion, you're being able to tell how events play out because they're typical and easy to figure out. It's the difference between a cop drama where one case is predicted by examining the evidence at a crime scene and picking up on non-blatant clues to determine the culprit, verses a guy with an eyepatch, twirly moustache and foul demeanour that clearly says "bad guy" and then having him be the culprit. |
