OP theme is really good and maybe better than ED theme.
I wanna see how's Haruka is going to fight Kakeru maybe in next episode or does Gort go fight him with his car army. Can't wait next episode. :)
Also I notice that Kakeru drawing style is same kind of work like digimon so it has some same aspects of it. Let's see is this gonna be the long running series or not.

I thought it was alright. I'm a sucker for anything and everything mecha related, but even then it was pretty good. Cool mecha designs, good action. I dislike CGI but I've gotten more used to it over the years, and it looks decent here for the most part. I'll keep watching.

This anime is as depressingly fantastic as I hoped it would be. The depressingly awesome Kakeru is just stunning with his incredible driving skills with that Toyota Prius Alpha (that parallel parking) and so much confidence. Really fun and hope it continues for quite a while. I think the blue Gyrozetter will be my favorite the character seems to be the best of the cast even if he didnt appear, and I hope his skill as up there with Lightning Slash.
Seki adds an good touch to this as the announcer and poor Kakeru.
ED has a nice song but the dancing robots was hilarious.
Only odd thing: The rosetta stone predicted AI cars future and Arcadia being attacked by Xenon? Incredible back story

...I guess it deserves a 3 or 4 out of 10. I mean it's a kids show, but there shouldn't be dozens of plot holes evident by the first couple episodes. and dat ending, who thought it was a good idea to make mecha do humiliating dances like that... I do like how the old pedophile Claude was so pumped for Kakeru's fight... prolly had a raging boner watching his prey kick ass, even though the fight was really slow paced.

Only watched the opening. Was enough for me to not want to watch it.
Whenever I saw the girl with the pony tail I just couldn't think of anything but Napoleon Dynamite though... Is the creator of this series a fan of that movie?

This anime is actually quite interesting. :o And the ending is such a riot. Lol. On another note, why is the enemy after Arcadia?

Haha, weird dancing mechs was best thing about this show. Didn't know it was a kids show before I started watching. Dropped, but glad I watched just to see the dancing mechs, lol.

Even though the setting was explained, it still felt pretty ridiculous with kids driving cars, especially that little girl. The episode was fun and I look forward to the rest. Can't wait for the team to assemble. Wonder if it will have some continuity or be motw format.

It's pretty typical kids stuff but Rinne is really cute so I'll watch for her.

However... I was irritated by how easily the 10yo boy took command and how everyone started to trust him - "ganbatte kudasai!" - with ever blasting hero music in the background. Since there was no build-up at all for that, scenes that otherwise would have made sense now became embarrassing.
I found the script unbelievable and illogical. And yes, even a crazy SF series should be believable and logical if it's any good! This was just a collage of anime tropes and character styles, like picking the current popular sounds and samplings from the radio to make a hit song. No substance at all.
I liked the 3DS game though, that's how I found out about the anime.
