In 21st century Japan, vehicles with
artificial intelligence for increased safety,
known as A.I. Cars, have revolutionized the
automotive industry. Special schools
teaching children to drive A.I. Cars have
been established. One day, Kakeru
Todoroki, a fifth grader of Arcadia
Academy, is summoned by the school
principal and given an A.I. Car with which
to save humanity. The car, however, is
actually also a transforming robot known
as Gyrozetter. When Xenon, an evil

Kakeru must gather the other "chosen
drivers" foretold on the artifact known as
the "Rosettagraph", and stop Xenon's evil

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 smile and
bow at whoever he met, although he
regularly displays recklessness that
almost get him into trouble. However,
whatever 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 uses 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
