Part 7.5: Because more annoying teens with annoying issues will obviously cancel out the ones we already have.We return to the talking heads segment, where we find that Badgerroll hasn't quite met her bitch quotient for the level.
"I mean its not like the entire purpose of the UEFA is to make the world a better place for civilians or anything."
So the UEFA has no choice but to abandon them, and Nergal has no choice but to save them. See? This is why you have to be able to sue the Army.
For all I rag on the SEED characters, Murrue and Mu are some of the most level-headed and well-rounded characters in the game, and I quite like them. [spoiler]So naturally the plot has to shit all over them later on so that Kira can become a proper messiah figure.[/spoiler]
"I'd shake you hand, but....Oh wow! Coordinators do have hands! I did not know that!"
It like they know that if they let him speak nothing but whine will come out.
Urubitake is representative most of the Gunpla fanbase, it seems.
I am swiftly becoming one of Davids many fanboys.
Its amazing how much this pack of crazies and pampered business types are better organised than the UEFA. Natarle would have shot half of them to bring them down to managable numbers.
Yay! Another character who needs the whole plot explained to her all over again.
Wait, why are you in university if you're all only 15? Shouldn't you be in high school like every anime ever? I can understand a Coordinator in uni as a teen, but Flay and the others are all Natural.
Can't have the SEED spread to other ships, gotta keep it in the failboat.
Meanwhile with the Redcoat Squadron (Seriously? Noone told the SEED writers what red upper-body clothing tends to imply?):
.....Uh....Weren't you the one doing the bombing and screaming at your troops to blow it up faster just to flush the good guys out? Why are you suddenly all Geneva Convention about this?
Well you could make that argument, but since Heliopolis was an independent colony as opposed to being a PLANT or part of the UEFA, you've essentially destroyed an entire nuetral country and left its people dispossessed. Thats...still pretty fucking serious from a political standpoint.
Crueset seems to be able to tell he's one of the final bosses, and plans accordingly.
Anyway, on the failboat:
Thats because its not a military warship, maybe?
You could steal the Gundam, or even just bail out and go 'neener neener neener' to the UEFA. But that'd require you be an active dynamic protagonist, which is banned in most media.
Are you kidding? Give Badgirl half an excuse and you can be out the airlock in 5 minutes.
I'm fairly certain floating off into the depths of space beyond the reach of any rescue ship is considered fairly dangerous, as a rule. But as we'll soon see, little things like logic don't apply to Flay.
Not...really, but I suppose you kinda need to keep the dilemma from the original series even though you aren't alone in this game. I know it'd be emasculating for the UEFA ship to have to cower behind the Nadesico as it blows through the enemy but...Actually, theres no downside to that approach.
I do like Mu.
Yes, she has been living in Heliopolis for a long period, and seen Natural and Coordinator live side by side with no problems for all that time. Why do you ask?
Kuzzey just loves to ruin everything, doesn't he? Don't let that dopey expression fool you, Kids a hellraiser.
Spoiler: She totally doesn't.
So you built a robot bird just you'd have someone to talk to when you need to have a little cry? Thats just....damn.
Actually, how are these debris fields formed? Colony clusters form around Lagrange points, because those are where the earth-moon gravitional pull is such that they'd be stable, but Lagrange points aren't exactly common and there wouldn't be any to spare.
And why would the colonies throw their trash away anyway? Thats useful material, their advanced space technology would mean they'd have some use for everything. If they do need somewhere to store it, what about the resource asteroids they hollowed out to get material for the colonies?
Assuming people will be suidically dickish in this universe is generally the safest call.
Ah, they remembered, after 3 levels of not giving it another mention. Isn't that sweet?
"I mean...not that theres anything wrong with that!! But...he's kinda dead...And theres no body so it wouldn't even be gay necrophilia..."
"I have to kill things because having killing things as your job is bad!!...Wait."
Anyway, back to intermission, and Puzzle Robo:
We have to prevent the enemy ship getting inside the Red rectangle. This is how far Roanne can move.
This is how far David can move.
And this is how far the enemy can move.
In addition to that, we have to make some desicions. Having our main unit be shot down is unacceptable, so we need to figure out how to avoid it happening again. Much like Akatsuki last mission, it happened because I put it out ahead of the rest of the troops at a time when enemy reinforcements were about to be triggered on their own turn. So its partly my fault, but if we'd had more upgrades, it might have been a boon as Calvina blew them all away casually.
So, what to do: Upgrade Mobility and risk the enemy ignoring the Bellzelute in future, or try upping Armor and HP, or a little of both? Or do a doctrinal change and basically glue the Bellzelute to the Layzner formation even though its much faster?
Should Akatsuki be allowed to fight again, or will we continue to not use him? And who else deserves uprgrades, parts or other attention?
[spoiler]For those hoping to reward Mu with upgrades, I regret to inform you that the Mobius becomes useless in a few levels and by the time its usable again, Mu has many more options for things to pilot.[/spoiler]
