Episode 25 released, and Star Driver comes to a close.
I kind of liked the final battle, despite a lot of animation inconsistencies which slightly irritated me. *shrugs* I think that Head's plan was pretty obvious ever since that episode with his past aired, however I didn't see the whole Samekh plot at first.
Also, not sure if I liked Head's defeat. I mean when I first saw those drawn/artful animated sequences pop in and out for a second, all I could think of was Gurran Lagann (because that was its style for the most part. Specifically in the second movie) and when I saw Head defeated, I could think of nothing BUT Gurren Lagann's second movie. It was pretty much exactly the same: the action, the style, the colors. Eeeevvverything. :c
But I think that was my only gripe (and maybe Head's insanity. Like, he was willing to do all that just so he could time travel, lolwut).
But all in all, a good episode and conclusion. I'd have liked to see an epilogue with Wako leaving the island or something; however now that Zero Time has been broken and all of the Maiden Seals slashed, I believe this brings some hope for an OVA, second season or even a movie. It wouldn't be surprising with its popularity in Japan either.
Stay fabulous, folks.
