I dunno, Gintoki is pretty bad at times. Anime hyper But I guess he's just reckless and not a bad driver.


When I saw the title of this article I immediately though Gintoki, and then that episode where he has to go to driving school to get back his license Anime hyper Although it seems Katsura would then be a worse driver...daydreaming about random/ridiculous/unrelated scenarios while driving...

I think Gin-san probably isn't so much a bad driver, just unlucky Anime hyper Everyone seems to want to step out into the path of his scooter. Although I suppose if he opened his eyes a little more (no more dead fish eyes! Anime hyper) he might be more alert as to the "road conditions" XP

Hmmm....................... not that many anime about cool cars and reckless driving that doesn't involve racing............. but who would want to be on the passenger seat with Riding Bean Bandit...... or Rally? Laughing

Wasn't there some sort of killer driver/car in Bubblegum Crisis? And I don't mean as a joke like people in this list, I mean as literally driving around killing people.

Hey, I just had a thought.

Why isn't Rally Vincent or Bean Bandit from Gunsmith Cats and Riding Bean not on this list?

Have you not seen how insane they drive?

So yeah, I'm calling out this list. No Rally or Bean? C'mon now... Rally's car gets wrecked on a daily basis and Bean may be a professional, but he's always getting into dangerous shit.

I'm amazed that no one has mentioned North High from "Haruhi Suzumiya".

I wanted to add that one to my list of suggestions too, but couldn't find the name of the school.

Also, the school in Welcome To The Space Show would be pretty cool. I mean, who wouldn't want to ride the school's jungle gym to the moon for a school trip?
And Kibi Defense University from Starship Operators is another option.
What's the school's name in GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class? The chickens would be great entertainment between and in classes there.

I'm surprised Lupin wasn't on that list.

I don't usually watch Hetalia, but I'm curious about that episode...what season is it in?


I believe one of the episodes in Hetalia World Series (season 3/4).

Yup—episode 4, "Revenge Road".

Bad Driver (Dis-)Honorable Mention: Maison Ikkoku's Kyoko Otonashi.

What episode was the go-kart race in Ranma 1/2? I don't remember seeing that.

Hey, Lupin's a great driver. He just...tends to get involved in tons of high-speed chases that generally wind up with someone wrecking. So yeah, maybe you're right. Very Happy

I'm not sure that one spoiler from Baccano! should be in there, you know. You could have just said that he didn't do him too much harm. Why are all the fans so determined to spoiler it for new viewers? :/
