  Battle Spirits Double Drive is the last of the Battle Spirits tv anime, and on paper its the coolest thing ever. Its a like a bets of of all the cool stuff. Chosen heroes drawn to a fantastical world, Zodiacs, fantasy and sports, transformations and journeying the WORLD. We have two heroes that represent the down to earth and fantasy aspects of the series!!! Unfortunately, the last Battle Spirits anime goes out on a whimper by being a poorer version of everything its trying to call back on. Like I cannot stress how boring the series is overall. It doesn't have much characters, yet also itdoesn't do much interesting with them. The plot and the characters are really this that this could have been shorter honestly. nnAnd even though the show presents two main characters, really this show just becomes about Shunta.nn Yooo they got a purple dude voiced by Jun Fukuyam-yeah don't get your hopes up.nnThe art style is pretty nice, however, the animation directing just makes it look unflattering sometimes, specifically the battle armors. There was like at least a scene animated by the person who directed Battle Spirits Ultimate Zero and only for that battle was the battle armor design the best it ever looked. Otherwise, some cute animation bits stuff here and there.nnThe best character is probably the character they introduced midway through the show. And also where they start introducing Ultimates into the show, so hey, the mechanic from my favorite show got done justice, how about that.
