Brief Description:
Star Driver takes place on the fictional Southern Cross Isle. One night, a boy named Takuto washes up on shore swimming from the mainland. He later enrolls in Southern Cross High School as a freshmen and makes new friends. However, beneath the school is a group of mysterious giants called Cybodies, which can be controlled by humans in an alternate dimension known as Zero Time. Takuto, The "Galactic Pretty Boy" finds himself dragged into opposition with the "Glittering Crux Brigade", a mysterious group that intends to take possession of the island's Cybodies for their own purposes as well as break the seals of the island's four Shrine Maidens, whose powers prevent the Cybodies from functioning outside of Zero Time.

Violence / Gore: The violence, mostly consisting of cybody battles and a few kendo matches, is basically completely bloodless.

Nudity / Sexual Content: The Glittering Crux ladies tend to have very skimpy outfits. There are several cases of nudity, most notably when the boys are in the bath, when a maiden's seal is broken and in the second OP. It's usually strategically covered or un-detailed although a few butt shots are shown. A female character fantasizes about two male characters being in a relationship, these scenes are reminiscent of those between Kaoru and Hikaru from Ouran High School Host Club. There's a fair amount of innuendo and one character was born out of wedlock.

Theological themes: The cybodies are sealed away from reality by the Shrine Maidens and Wako is seen performing purifying rituals but it's not really elaborated on. Each driver has a different "super power"/ability known as a First Phase which they can use outside of Zero Time.

Negative Themes: Some alcohol use and a teacher gets drunk at a party. Some swearing.
