Dragon Drive episodes

Reiji is a high school student who is the worst at everything, not to mention he is a lazy slob who never keeps any of his promises. However, when his friend Maiko introduces him to a virtual reality game known as Dragon Drive, Reiji finally finds the motivation to do something. Maiko believes that Reiji has a sleeping dragon inside of him. Unfortunately for Reiji, it's still sleeping. When he is forced into a battle upon receiving his dragon, can Reiji defeat the lovestricken Daisuke when his dragon is so weak that its stats don't even register?

Reiji promises Maiko that he'll protect her if she's in trouble next time they play Dragon Drive. Maiko tells him that he is overconfident and it was just luck. Reiji ignores her and starts bragging about how cool Chibi is. Later that day they go back to play Dragon Drive, and Ichiro is brought into the game. He is incredibly tough and shows no mercy. He says he'll beat everyone in 10 minutes or less and he'll save Reiji for last so he can witness it. He starts taking out all of the dragons, until Maiko becomes his target. Reiji discovers Chibi's wings and jumps off a building hoping he'll fly him. Chibi isn't strong enough and the two begin to plummet to the ground where if he'll sustain heavy damage in the real world. Can Reiji keep his promise?

When a glitch in the system causes Reiji to lose all of his battle experience, he will have to face Daisuke, who has teamed up with Daisuke for revenge, in a rematch where not only are they not the only particpants, but an unmaned wild dragon is running around the battle. When the two are severely injured, can they work together and defeat the dragon to save not only save their lives, but Kanper's as well?

Reiji's had a run of bad luck lately, as he can't stop losing matches. However, when he finds his way into a battle with the strongest players in the world, Ichiro Sumishiba, Sayaka Towa and the #1 ranked played Hikaru Himuro, Reiji may finally find the motivation he needs to awaken Chibi's true power.

Reiji wants to become stronger than Hikaru, so Agent L shows him a secret training room. Kyoji and Sayaka are already there, giving Reiji some pointers. Meanwhile, Maiko has no idea where Reiji has been going, but when she spots him him with Agent L, she drags Daisuke to spy on him. They follow him into the secret training room and are attacked by two powerful dragons. When all hope seems lost for the two, Reiji shows up and easily defeats the dragons, but who is this new powerful dragon that Reiji is on top of?

After waking up in a mysterious world, Reiji and Chibi discover that Maiko has been abducted by a wild dragon. After saving her, with a little help from Daisuke, Reiji and Chibi are greeted by a group of dragons and their riders. A girl named Meguru explains the truth behind RI-ON and Dragon Drive, and reveals that they are in a world known as Rikyu, where Chibi is regarded as a legedary hero. However, a boy named Gokaku confronts Reiji and claims that he is Chibi's true owner, abducting him and challenging a powerful dragon to prove it. Will Chibi accpet this boy as his master, or is up to Reiji to save both their lives?

When Reiji is requested to join the Dragonic Heaven tournament, Gokaku's brother, Rockaku, challenges him to a fight for the spot in the tournament. When Chibi is poisoned by one of Rockaku's henchmen, he is unable to battle normally, and Rockaku appears to have an easy victory. However, Reiji and Chibi aren't down yet, and Chibi is about to unleash an attack far more powerful than anything anyone has ever seen before!

Rockaku takes Reiji and Daisuke to the tournament location. When they arrive, Chibi falls into a river and is found by two mysterious twins. Reiji goes looking for Chibi, and ends up finding him with the twins. The twins have tied him to a rope and is forcing him to dance on a ball in the middle of the ocean. Reiji is furious and demands Chibi back, but the twins refuse because they found him and say they own him. Plus, he is much more entertaining than their previous dragon. The twins' escort appears and tells him that she'll pay him a bunch of money if he lets them keep it. Reiji refuses the money and the twins are shocked about how ungreedy he is. They call forth this giant fish to eat Chibi and their previous lame old dragon. Can Reiji save Chibi and the other dragon?

Reiji, Daisuke, and Rockaku have only a few hours to get a special stone to qualify for the tournament. Rockaku decides to take a nap and tells them that this will prove whether they should be able to be on his team or not. Reiji and Daisuke find a bunch of stones huddled together, but it turns out to be a trap set by the two twins from before. They use their dragons to ambush Reiji and Daisuke. Daisuke orders Reiji to stay out of the fight so he can prove his strength. Daisuke is severely overpowered, but refuses to give up. Touched by his determination, the sister of the twins gives Daisuke an orb and tells him that he deserves it because she wants to see somebody like him make it to the next rounds so they can defeat him. But, it is all a trick and Daisuke is attacked by both dragons and defeated. Reiji gets very angry at the twins for tricking Daisuke like that and begins to go into a rage. Chibi's body begins to turn black and seems to have become more powerful. What is happening to Chibi?

Chibi's body has turned black and seems even more powerful than before. Reiji fights the twins' dragons and appears to be easily winning. However, Reiji is so blinded by rage that it doesn't last long and the twins soon make their comeback. A dark figure appears behind them and the twins' dragons get even more power. Reiji takes a beating and the twins' escort appears. She tells Reiji the truth about the twins and the fact that they are possessed by an evil dragon named Darks. She begs Reiji to help and Reiji agrees to save them. Chibi returns to normal and Reiji explains that rage is not how to unlock Chibi's true potential. Chibi returns his form to Senkoh Coola and Reiji fights the two dragons again. The twins regain control of their bodies long enough to explain that it's too late for them and want Reiji to kill them so they can be free. Will Reiji be willing to kill them?

Rockaku claims that Maiko can't take Daisuke's place because she is too weak. Maiko takes a bet that says if she can reach the end of the desert on her own, since her dragon can't fly, then she gets to take the injured Daisuke's place. Reiji tries to convince Maiko not to, but Rockaku agrees to the condition. Maiko starts to realize how hard it really is. After being chased quite a ways, she finds an abandoned music house where she discovers a tiny pink dragon that tells the story of it. As the music house soon comes under attack, it's up to Maiko to protect it. But, can she do it and still make it across the desert?

While visiting the town, the group spies some three contestants picking on another person. Rockaku mocks them and the three get ready to fight him. However, a mysterious person arrives and stops the fight. That night, the three contestants abduct Maiko to use her a bait to defeat Reiji. Reiji goes after them and is led into a fight. The leader starts attacking him with Maiko tied up to the dragon. Unable to fight back, Reiji takes a heavy beating. Just when he is about to be defeated, the mysterious warrior from before arrives and reveals himself to be the winner of the last tournament. He saves Maiko and Reiji is given the oppurtunity to defeat them. However, Reiji says he'll spare them so they can fight properly in the first round. The next morning, Maiko tells Reiji and Rockaku to stay back so she can get revenge on them. Maiko easily beats all three of them and Daisuke arrives for the match, only to discover that it is already over.

Reiji and the gang soon learn about an evil dragon who destroyed Madina's home, and that he is keeping people hostage. In order to save them, and against Rockaku's wishes, they are forced to risk their own particpation in the tournament. They find one lady, but fall into a trap where a dragon made of liquid can burn anything it touches. Kyoji arrives to save the day, and we find out a bit more about Mukai's past. Unaware to Reiji and the others, the lady they are trying to save is Mukai's mother. Kyoji announces that they will be fighting each other in the next round.

While Maiko and Sayaka duke it out, Daisuke tries to sace the mysterious woman on his own. After Maiko and Sayaka's match ends in a draw, Reiji fights against Kyoji. When Chibi finally gets the strength to defeat Kyoji, Kyoji gives up, saying he wans to learn more about Reiji. Now Reiji must fight against Mukai, while at the same time Daisuke finds out the truth about the mysterious woman.

With the battle against Mukai over with, Reiji watches as Hikaru's team mercilessly beats down Sun Wols'. Unable to contain his rage, he goes in search of Hikaru that evening. However, when Hikaru challenges Reiji to a match, can Reiji defeat him after learning his true motives?

Mukai confronts the one who kidnapped his mother in the first place, and he wants revenge for his mother's death. In order to save him, Reiji and the others give up their chance to win the Dragonic Heaven. Will their decision allow Kouhei to steal the Dragonite?

The tournament may be over, but that won't stop Rockaku from taking revenge on Kouhei. As Kouhei tries to escape from Rikyu with the Dragonite, everyone tries to stop him. When Kouhei proves to be too powerful for Rockaku to handle, somebody will have to pay the ultimate price to protect him!

As the group mourns Mukai's death, Reiji reflects on all the events up to the current point.

Chibi has fallen ill, and is slowly dying. To stop this, Reiji goes on a journey to find a special herb that may save Chibi's life. Also, RI-ON decides to come back to Rikyu to carry out their plans and revive Shinryu. To prepare for Kouhei's return, Daisuke, Rockaku, and Maiko decide to seek out a warrior that may aid them in their fight. They soon discover a guy named Chihiro, who is the warrior, and see he has no dragon. They later find his dragon, but it is locked up. Chihiro explains that his dragon went crazy and betrayed him. Kanper soon does the same, but it turns out he was trying to protect Daisuke. Chihiro finally realizes his mistake, and is soon saved by his friend. Meanwhile, Reiji returns with the herb, but finds that Chibi won't wake up...Chibi has died. Is this truly the end of Chibi?

Ichiro appears to offer his services to Maiko, Daisuke, and Rockaku, but wishes to speak with Meguru first. Ichiro remembers his past, and begs Meguru to come back to Earth for her sister Agent L. Meanwhile, Reiji goes off on a journey with Chibi to defeat a legendary dragon named SinnSaber, and get more power. He soon gets stuck in a swamp while a dragon attacks him. A mysterious lad appears to help, but doesn't stand a chance. At the last second, Hikaru shows up and defeats the dragon, but destroys a sacred shrine in the process. Reiji and Hikaru are soon arrested, and the lad explains the situation. When he learns about Reiji's plan, the lad decides to go and ask that they be set free, but soon discovers the truth about his master and the dragon that has been attacking the village. He busts Reiji and Hikaru out, and then all three must defeat the dragon to prove their trust. Hikaru watches from the sidelines as Chibi is too hungry to transform, and Reiji and the lad struggle to survive. He then decides to help, only to find that Reiji had a plan that defeats the dragon and gets the lad a spot on the defence force. The lad's master is expossed for the fraud he is, and Reiji takes his leave. But, Hikaru joins him.
