"Revolutionary Girl Utena with Giant Robots."
The only thing keeping Star Driver from being an A is that it borrows a little too much from it's pink-haired big sister. However, it is a lovely story of romance, intrigue and heroism with deep, human characterization and profound mythic feel, though it generally avoids direct references to mythology.
Visually stunning and with a beautiful soundtrack (especially the North Maiden's song), Star Driver is an excellent example of modern Seinen: thoughtful, meaningful and active.
