Drive Breaks(ドライブ・ブレイク Doraibu Bureiku), or simply called as Finishers (必殺技 Hissatsuwaza, lit. Final Attack), is a set of Kamen Rider-esque finishers in Valkyrie Drive series. Though any Liberator have no problems dealing with other opponents. Often, these attacks would end with an explosion and causing their opponent Liberator to be defeated and their Extar partner de-transforms, and are powerful enough that as the series goes on they become strong enough to defeat multiple enemies. On one occasion, Drive Breaks can be only used by Liberators (or Hybrids on their depending role) while wielding an Extar, with the exception of a single Extar who was able to perform the technique.
These are primarily seen within Valkyrie Drive Bhikkhuni, however some characters in Valkyrie Drive Mermaid use attacks that could be seen as Drive Breaks.
Types[]
Throughout the series that were used by any Liberators, Drive Breaks were divided into five types:
- Unarmed (素手 Sude): Hand-to-hand combat abilities via the use of punches, kicks, or hand chops.
- Cut (斬り Kiri/Giri): Slashing abilities via the use of a blade weapon.

- Shoot (撃つ Utsu): Ranged abilities via the use of shooting weapons such as a bow or a firearm, including energy projectiles.
