While I was talking about Star Driver on gtalk, I had to admit, I had no clue what the motives of the glittering crux were, but my chat-partner also only remembered “something about being the chosen ones to move forward or whatever.”
It sounds so half-assed, so I imagine them becoming the bad guys like this:
Voice from heaven: “Uh, yeah, we need bad guys… How about those guys? *points*”
Kiraboshi: “Eh, us? Why?”
Voice from heaven: “Errr, because you want to become, uh… *reads several Wikipedia entries about sects* think you are chosen ones that advance mankind”
Kiraboshi: “Mh, not really, buy if you say so… But how do we fight?”
Voice from heaven: “Good question… You use giant, kinda girlish looking robots. And that’s in a space that exists outside the flow of time. Got that idea from watching some show with a red-haired girl and a sword.”
Kiraboshi: “Hm, okay… [Guys, did you hear that? ROBOTS! I'm so in!] “
They didn’t learn about silly costumes, masks and idiotic secret salutes until after they signed the contract, though.
