Characters

Kakeru Todoroki (轟駆流, Todoroki Kakeru)
Voiced by: Marina Inoue

The main protagonist of the series, and the first of the six chosen drivers selected by Arcadia. A young carefree boy who was very polite, and never forgets to smile and bow at whoever he met, although he regularly displayed recklessness that almost got him into trouble. However, whenever he sees someone in danger, he would not think twice before rushing to help, but when his friends were in deep danger, or if they were hurt in front of him, Kakeru sets his outgoing personality aside and unleashes his repressed hatred at his enemies. He usually used the word depressingly as an adjective, much to Rinne's dismay. His Gyrozetter, Raibird, uses a short sword, called "Thunderclap Blade", to deliver strikes at his enemies, and usually uses attacks based on Japanese wrestling moves, such as Lightning Slash, an diving attack. He has three Final Burst in the series
