A few episodes ago Onari doodled on a sleeping Alain’s face; he still does this shit whenever they make room for it.

And where does Onari grow exactly? Akari I can understand because she constantly rises to the challenge, but Onari doesn’t. There’s two points in the entire show where he did something worthwhile: One, dealing with Javel. Second, fighting against the Knive Ganma.

He never did anything noteworthy outside of these two points, and if he did something to help out it’s always coupled with bullshit comedy like him playing a punk to get Takeru und co. into Deep Connect or him being possessed by Goemon. And we can’t really know if he grows because we know nothing about who he is. He teased once that he was sinful in the past but Takerus dad saved him, never is this mentioned again and never do they built upon it.

Akari grows as a character, Onari doesn’t. He’s the weakest comedic relief filler in a long time.



I don’t see that at all. It’s just the familiar episodic adventures style but worse than usual.



Alain I give you, he's the most well developed character in the show, but Makoto? Nah. Most if not all of his arcs are either about him being absent or they’re trash. Like his "using Houdini’s power"-arc… where talking with Houdini is done through getting run over by a motorcycle frequently. WTF.



Because the first half is really, really weak. And we know that because the second half is so much better. So it’s easy to see why people don’t enjoy Drive: Having to watch half a show to get to the good part is not the most entertaining thing to do.

As this post was more about ranting than debating I'm not really going to go into this much.

I think Ghost's story is fantastic and I'm not the only one who thinks this. I just don't like people calling it a weak show when honestly it's not. It holds up in a multitude of ways.

Onari I think is a gem and one of the best comic relief characters but he is so much better when they play up his compassionate role especially with Javert. He understands how he can help Takeru and does his best to do that.

I wish they would stop playing let's fuck with the secondary rider in the last 3 series because Baron, Mach, and Spectre all get shit on at different points of each story but besides that Makoto I think has a had a lot of great story moments and the plot moved forward when he was introduced. He helped push Takeru and helped convince Alain to change too. Makoto is extremely essential to the plot.

Well see in Black RX, Stronger and Amazon they would just help random people who needed help, which Random people go to Takeru to help. So it is very much has a Showa-Era feel to it and I wouldn't be surprised with it being an anniversary season.

I dunno the first half of Drive made me emotional for a little toy car, so I can't really say that it was weak and after that shit ending of Gaim I couldn't wait for Drive all the time afterwards.

Now this might be a thing of tastes but the Paranormal/Supernatural/Ghost elements with the historical figures I love the hell out of and the Android Threat/Cop Drama/Superhero elements made Drive amazing too. If it would have ended better I would've been fine with Biblical Break Dance Fighting Fruit too but I wasn't.
