>>13567957
No, we didn't actually have Ein or Zwei or either since I'm pretty sure the first thread started with Vier.
We still have 7 more Einherjars to get through and then 3 Salvators, if we even get that far. 4 episodes and 10 threads? I guess that might work

>>13567948
Alvis III is named Atlantis.
Now, what is the island of Atlantis famous for?

The capital of the lost continent of Mu, and was known as having the pinnacle of technology for its time period.

Common conspiracy theories believe that Atlantis brought about its own downfall from overzealous use of its mystical magitech, such as a black hole generator running amok and sending both the capital and portions of the continent to another world.

I bet you're the life of the parties.

I just wanted to post this webm, and it seemed appropriate. I really like "Atlantis" as a concept. Did not know about the black hole theory, which is really cool given the Worm Spheres.
I was also under the impression that the current thinking on Mu had it pegged in the Pacific, not Atlantic. Also not that it matters, but Mu was coined well, well after Atlantis which even in the myths was none for its automatons and pride causing its downfall.
I've never seen it mentioned as Mu's capital though.

>>13568452
That sounds kinda familiar...

>>13568470
The Mu and Atlantis are two separated MYTHS that some crazy people like to combine. The Atlantis is just a thought experiment designed by Plato. The Mu is a modern myth that was first proposed by a writer named Augustus Le Plongeon.

>>13568492
>Mu is a modern myth that was first proposed by a writer named Augustus Le Plongeon.
Yeah, knew that, just never knew it was associated with Atlantis, other than the similarities.

>>13568499
Crazy people like to combine shit. Continental Drifting makes "sinking continents/islands" impossible, but that doesn't stop these crazy fuckers from believing it.

>>13568470
Walker's acting pretty tough for someone who runs the fuck away every time there's some heat.

There are at least three versions of the female uniform: pilot candidate minidress, CDC dress with a pencil skirt (worn by Yukippe and Yumiko in DA, not sure if it's shown up since), and engineering pants (worn by Youko, Canon, and I think Nishio-grandma).

At first I thought it wasn't Vier but the color scheme and Arcadian project stickers pretty much confirm it.

>>13568681
Any book or e book she tries to touch turns into crystal. She probably put in a request to show Douma Hiroto specials 24/7 in her room to keep the boredom away.

Stop using CCCP or any codec packs for that matter. Uninstall that shit, download mpv or MPC HC and use its internal filters. Stop having playback issues.

>>13569108
I used mpv.

>>13569108
I'm pretty sure Daman are fucked on MPC as well.

>>13569099

Yeah, Daman's rips of the Fafner material are just complete garbage.

>>13569121
>>13569125

No. It's the subtitle render for that codecs packs use: Xyvsfilter, which is a piece of shit that no-one is developing anymore. The internal subtitle render that MPC-HC has doesn't have any issues with PGS subs.

>>13569130

In high school we had regional competitions that could end up being only my single school depending on the event.

What is Solomon anyway? It's obviously not just a radar, since it names new Festum types itself.

It's the liquid computer that lives in the Well of Urd. I think it might be Soushi's mom, too.

Yukippe was pretty desperate. She should at least have gone for Fumihiko or Tamotsu, they are handsome.

As long as it kills the Festum or people they don't like everything is fair game.

>>13569317
Fair game as long as the area to be impacted is full of Festum or people that have been assimilated.

>>13569317
No survivors.

>>13569317
My guess? Nuke it once it makes landfall.
Knock out two birds with one stone because there's probably some Assimilation Jockies in the place the Festum were aiming anyway.
Any space station drops are obviously the work of Festum.

>>13569326
It's the only way to be sure.

>>13568470
That entire thing about Mu was probably pulled from Star Ocean (one of the PSP games and the X360/PS3 game). It was a plot point explaining why advanced tech were on primitive worlds.

But the bit about them being technologically advanced is a commonly held belief in other works involving Mu.

The bit about Atlantis being its capital though is a new one I've only seen once or twice in some fantasy/sci-fi novel and comics as a convenient merging of both ideas. I'm wondering if anon read a similar work.

>>13569266
>Also Soushi's dad banging Yukippe is extra awkward
Wait what? I don't remember this.

>>13569337
>But the bit about them being technologically advanced is a commonly held belief in other works involving Mu.

Or Atlantis.

It's just bullshit that people wants to believe, just like the thing about OOPARTs or aliens building the pyramids

>>13569342
Yeah man, there was a full on Fukuda styled sex scene in a flashback of Soushi walking in on them during DA 9 iirc.

Go watch episode 1 again. You'll see it's fairly obvious unless you've never talked to a girl before.

I think Ai will survive because Jonathan is still shouting about her. Fafner always has very clear deaths there's no "her mech exploded offscreen" styff

That would have been cool if the 3rd alvis is the same place they visited in episode 21.

So Kazuki and Maya turned 20 as of the last episode. What's the cut off date for them being able to pilot Fafners? There was that before, right?

Will Kazuki still be able to pilot long after that as a result of piloting Sein? (Soushi's probably a given since he's Festum at this point....)

>>13569388
Presumably late 20s, going by Soushi's comments in that beachside episode.
Kaz has 3 years left normally, but it seems that Ashoka and I'm guessing any Mir is capable of bestowing an eternity of piloting.

>>13569388
The time limit is seemingly because of the fact that they need still-developing brains to unite with the Fafners. So, really, that could be stretched out as much as the writers want.

But with all the shit Kazuki's been through and the talk about accepting the island's blessing, he might be able to keep going despite the age like Narain. Soushi's Festum body presumably would allow the same.

>>13569435
All the new fafner pilots only started piloting after DA, right? So, Narain is just some old dude who has the "factor" because he's part gold goop.

>>13569515
>All the new fafner pilots only started piloting after DA, right?
Yeah, presumably.

I've got a sneaking suspicion Narain took up Ashoka's offer to become its eternal protector though, might be why he's had some rock solid plot armor.

Kazuki's blessing will make him stop aging, thus also stopping his illness from developing further.

>>13569529
He loses his sight though...

>>13569515
Yeah, not saying it's the same circumstances, Narain is just the only older Fafner pilot to use as an example.

He mentioned in the first cour that his body was the result of trying to experiment with Mir and humans, but they couldn't create anything like a true Esperanto.

Nathan doesn't look like he was in his 20s.

Yet he's still able to pilot.

>>13569544
>missing the rest of the discussion
Narain's being kept alive by Festum magic.
He probably made some sort of contract with Ashoka.

>>13569559
Are you illiterate?

>>13569564
It seems I am, I read that as Narain.
Who the hell is Nathan? There's nobody by that name.

>>13569571
One of Dustin's boys maybe?

>>13569575
Nope, Heinz is kill, Chester is the black dude.

Maybe he meant Walter? In which case, he could definitely be late 20s. War ages people hard.

>>13569571
I thought that was the name creepy guy that was all MUH NOTHUNG model in Dustin's platoon.
He certainly didn't look like he was in his 20s AND he didn't have access to Ashoka.

>>13569581
Oh, that was Heinz Bittona. In the Sandalphon?
He could be late 20s, yeah.
Again, war ages you hard and maybe he just had bad genes?

>>13569352
Ah it's been a long time since I watched DA, so I didn't remember the scene.

>>13569352
I found it mildly hilarious when she started trying to be seductive at times towards Soushi.

Did you just try to read my mind, you little Grendel-type? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Arcadian Project, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Mir, and I have over 1,000 confirmed kills. I am trained in Mecha warfare and I’m the top pilot on all of D-Island. You are nothing to me but just another pawn. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Island, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me telepathically? Think again, Festum. As we speak, I am contacting my operator in the Siegfried System, and your Azazel-type is being tracked right now so you better prepare for the storm, alien. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your nothingness. You’re fucking dead, bug. My Norns can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my Razing Cutter. Not only am I extensively trained in Aerial combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Tatumiyajima Fafner Unit. and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable core off the face of the continent, you golden shit. If only you could have known what exacting retribution your little “clever” attempt at assimilation was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking thoughts. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you hiveminded idiot. I will SDP Gundrakes straight inside of you and you will die from it. That's checkmate, kiddo.

>Implying that won't happen

It was a little unclear, but were the Eurus types fighting Keith's squad in the battle? Sakura said "don't shoot any people", but obviously that doesn't apply to festum soldiers, cause it's a recipe for danger if humans fight humans with fafners, doesn't mean your festum allies can't protect you

It would pull them either into his cockpit or out 100s of meters about the ocean. They also might retain their inertia if Olga hitting the front of the cockpit hard is any indication. None of the weapons he summons are moving when he summoned them.

>>13569996
It's worth noting that if it does end up in the heroes' hands after they take down Jonathan it could be powered up with a SDP on account of having Funf's core. Or evil Jonathan might be able to get a SDP from his crazy ass Mir. We may see what power Hiroto would have gotten yet.

>>13570033
In DA Fumihiko has a conversation with several overs and Tsubaki about this. He says that the Islands Mir will eventually evolve to the point where it can sustain all life within the Welle Shield, be it Underwater or in Space.

>>13570067
He was told not to kill them too.

Is the keel block close to the core room? I don't get why it's the place Canon and Soushi and the Minashiro girls etc. go to have important conversations.

>>13570052
>on account of having Funf's core
Sein and Nicht both have Nothung cores (Elf and Vier) they didn't get the buff despite being active when the Mir was giving out free candy. Their buff came from having their "limiters" removed.

Also they already have SDP thanks to the Festum inside them. The Salvator "gimmick" is to let the mech tap into and amplify the Festum's power.
The Nothungs used to be unable to tap into that (unless you had a certain Slave-type core). Now they can in a limited fashion because the SDP actually belongs to their pilots, not the mech. The mech just channels it. The Einherjar channels it further.

>we Festum now

>>13570043
They were, killed an Ariel too.

>>13570072
Soushi and the Minashiro girls go there to have important conversations because they want their mother to hear it too.

>>13570069
Just take one of those million Seed doujins and apply a little imagination. Sui has the Shin face palette, not the Kira one.

>>13570075
Rason (can't into umlauts) wouldn't have any Festum powers without Mir related core alterations or directly fusing with a Festum like Sein and Nicht. Not that Jonathan couldn't handle either of those in short order. I think it's safe to say that it will need Festum powers to be competitive. Using Funf's core would just be one way to do it that would allow it to be useful if it ends up on the side of good eventually.

Also dunno if this was obvious to everyone, but episode 22 had a Soushi/sister scene too. There he was asking Tsubaki for permission to leave the island, here

In DA Sakura was in a life support tank, in Exodus Kazuki is.

In DA, Mamoru died protecting everyone, in Exodus, Mimika protected everyone and NUN builds their ultimate salvator based on funf. It is like a whole funf fanservice episode.

>>13570087
>without Mir related core alterations or directly fusing with a Festum
Speculation, we already know Sein could assimilate the chunk of Idun he fought, and that was before he had consumed it.

Not saying that they wouldn't get buffed by Festum, as it makes sense, but I'm pretty certain Mitsuhiro and Yoji weren't relying on having a spare Master-type to make it work.

Also this is worng
>wouldn't have any Festum powers
There is an actual Festum inside each Fafner. That's what the hourglass looking thing is. They are mined from Mir and before Heaven's Door incredibly rare. That is the source of the SDP/Festum power.

Fünf's core is just that source for Raison (no umlaut), Just as Elf's was for Sein, and Vier's was for Nicht.

How do you think Mitsuhiro felt when he saw minashiro tsubaki step up to the stand in Yumiko's trial? If he was experimenting on the prometheus core type already, or Jonathan was already born, he must've been really shocked to see a core be so human and stick up for her friends, he probably only saw them as tools or festum before then.

It's a play on both words and could be interpreted as either I think. Räson is German for reason and Raison is French. I was just going with the German spelling because the other Salvators have German names. I think they want the German name, but also want to play on raison d'être.

>>13570562
Shit, the pronunciation lines up too.

Now I want to see the name come up in text, Raison could just be on CR's end because it comes to mind first. And yeah it fits in with literally every Fafner name that matters, instead of suddenly using French.

Probably was pissed, because a mobile core means it'd be that much harder to try and secure it.

And one that's mobile, aware, and able to understand humans is one that's also that much harder to control and subjugate.

Seeing her probably led to him and Hester deciding on straight-up razing and raiding the weaker Alvis island in order to secure the core before it matured enough to be independent and fully influenced by the humans living with it.

Of course, not realizing that the core already was bonded with them on some level; taking in their rage, despair, and pain from being razed.

>>13571138
We know that, but the Festum don't.

Tsubaki didn't have enough time to teach Festum about male anatomy above the penis, and they just copied whatever they felt was essential to human males when they recreated a human body.

She at least taught them about sex and reproduction, and the Island Mir evolved enough to make it possible.

Of course, she failed to teach them human courtship rituals, so Misao wanting to eat Miwa is what we get. At least it's a step above "I want to fuck you". Although I think Miwa knows what she wants too; promising herself to Misao at such a young age.

Assuming Jonathan's story about being considered a failure by his father at times was remotely true, he could have been a legit failed NUNS attempt at recreating a proper test tube pilot that wasn't discarded only because they were able to slave him to the core.

This is of course assuming that his memories only suffered from partial memory deletion rather than a total personality delete during his time growing up, with only certain adult memories being erased and reprogrammed to suit whatever role they needed Jonathan to take. At least, under the assumption that it'd be easier to let him have a common "growing up" memory and only dealing with his adult memories.

Vagrant and Seto Fragment did not start as the same thing. The Seto Fragment of Atlantis was acquired at some undisclosed point. They then also acquired Vagrant and using the Seto Fragment Core and were able to "subjugate" and make the Seto Fragment Core function as Vagrants Core. (Though it might be equally as likely that Vagrant agreed to cooperate with the Atlantis Fragment for the mutual destruction of Hester and Co when the time was right)

Azazel's did not exist prior to the destruction of Polarsis(otherwise there'd have been no way the North Pole assault would have succeeded), so they'd have needed the Seto Fragment at some point prior to Polaris' destruction.

Given the physical age of the Atlantis Core' human component and Gregory's appearance, the sinking of Atlantis can be theorized to be have taken place within the past 10 years.

The discovery of Atlantis can be theorized to have occurred for the following reasons until more information is given

1. Festum attack allowed for Nuns to locate them and the Nuns promptly pillaged and slaughtered them all
2. Festum attack forced Atlantis to go to Nuns for aid, in which the Nuns promptly pillaged and slaughtered them all
3. Infiltrators leaking information led the Nuns to Atlantis and the Nuns promptly pillaged and slaughtered them all.
4. Atlantis chose to participate in the Heaven's Door operation to defeat Polaris, and having survived the operation were tailed back to Atlantis, and the Nuns promptly pillaged and slaughtered them all

>>13571349
No, a more educated guess is that Vagrant had set up shop in space post Heaven's Door, and the actual attempts to launch satellites were stopped by it until they were able to seize control using the Atlantis Core.

Since Azazel's by nature only came about because of Polaris' shattering.

>>13571366
This is also possible, but I kinda doubt it because The Azazels A-E are accounted for, making Vagrant Type-F, which would suggest he came after the fact. We also know that Azazels didn't show up until after Heaven's Door, by which time the NUNs already had Atlantis's Core.

>because of Polaris' shattering.
It may've been a side affect, but Atlantis has never been affiliated with Polaris, it's a fragment of the Seto Mir.
Presumably any Mir fragment of substantive size could manifest an Azazel, it just seems like the Polaris chunks got the idea first.

>>13571339
Isn't the Seto Fragment the three pieces each Alvis carried in hopes of eventually using later? For what purpose, not sure, but it had to do something also Atlantis may have been found before Heaven's Door, but unlike D-Island they weren't getting constant barrages until I guess Festum could have worn them out or they were tired of fighting and thought the Human Army would spare them.

If I remember old dialogue and details correctly, Japan was the site of the first terrestrial contact with the Festum, and the first thing it did was begin sterilizing the population.

This led to a panic amongst the other nations, and they unanimously decided to nuke the Mir in Japan and deny any surviving citizens access into their countries in the belief the sterilization was infectious (it wasn't; but that wasn't proven until much later).

Thus, in sheer desperation, the survivors in Japan, abandoned and desperate, managed to gather the 3 fragments, install them into battle islands, then send them off to different parts of the world in the hopes that they would be able to eventually research a means to fight back, using a fragment of the enemy against itself as well as a means to continue the Japanese race.

The islands themselves were created out of the original fact that Festum could not cross water without dissolving into nothing, so they hoped a mobile research and development base would buy them more time to develop counters and cures.

Why are you saying this as if it's a counter? I know that. What I made clear is that the Atlantis Fragment and Vagrant were not a single entity from the start. Hester specifically says it's "Now the core of another entity as well"

And there were only 4 Mir/Mir Fragments prior to the shattering of Polaris.
The 3 managed by Alivs(one absorbed by Polarsis, one taken by Nuns), and Polaris.

Oh my bad. Thanks for correcting me.
Still don't see how this "Vagrant had set up shop in space post Heaven's Door" makes sense as they would've had Atlantis's Mir by then.
Ya know, I guess it's possible that Vagrant left his core on Earth and then the NUNs somehow recovered it and fed it to the chunk of Atlantis they had though.

>>13571479
They noped out, he shows up a few episodes later. Azazels and Mir are slightly different. Azazels are just a Festum that uses the entire Mir as a Core as opposed to the little "shavings" we've seen.

>>13571463
>the Atlantis Fragment and Vagrant were not a single entity
Mir and Azazels have never been the same entity, and we don't know which Mir Vagrant wasn't originally spawned from. It seems most likely that it was from the one inside Prometheus maybe encouraged by the NUN.

>>13571505
>which Mir Vagrant was originally spawned from

>>13571463
>Episode 8
Don't you mean episode 21 (episode 8 of Season 2)?
Hester's cool map only shows up in Episode 6 during the first half.

>>13571496
The subjugation part is the tricky bit. Since we still don't know if Vagrant IS actually under Atlantis' control OR Hester tried some inane scheme to seize control and assumed it worked when in actuality Atlantis and Vagrant simply reached an understanding and agreed to combine or work together. We'll probably get more information on the exact relationship next episode.

Also Heaven's Door was just a PART of a the Triple Plan. so the timeline of the actual thing needs more clarification.

If Vagrant IS D and there isn't another Azazel Type lurking around, then Vagrant would have been the 4th encountered Azazel. Walker, Roadrunner, and Aviator all would have shown up first and if those 3 were around at the time of Heaven's Door operation there's no way they wouldn't have rushed in to defend Polaris when Kazuki and Crew reached it.

And you know what? We do have evidence that the sinking of Atlantis more than likely took place post Heaven's Door. In that Bartland recovered the Vier for it's core to use in the Nicht. If they were already in possession of Atlantis at that point, there'd have been no need because they could have just taken one from Atlantis.

>>13571505
>Mirs and Azazels have never been the same entity

Not exactly. The Azazels we've seen besides Walker have all kept their Mirs inside them or very close by.

Since Fafner's pretty much proven that most (not all) of its plot events happen for a reason... why do you think they decided to put Kazuki in a vat? Plot development, character development, or something as cheap as a callback to the first season's vatting of Sakura?

>>13571564
I hope it's not him losing his naive everyman self-insert "still 100% human guys" status.

>>13571569
Who'd replace him, I wonder? Akira?

>>13571564
Well, he was probably VAT'd when he in a Coma for a year.

More than likely I'd say he's going to go through some character development (which will match whatever upgrade the Sein is going to hopefully get that I really want now)

He's on the boarder of life and death right now. Perfect time for some Newtype ghost conversations.

Also he can be Pod Buddies with Setsuna next time they're in a SRW.

>>13571564
It's a callback to the last time Sein got melted. We EVA now, again.

>>13571575
Akira's future is either to develop FAFZINGER Z or Death.

They don't have anyone to pick up the future Fafner development now that Canon's gone so it's gotta be one of the Nishio's who do it.

>>13571598
Akira will invent a Fafner that gets stronger the more you rage.

>>13571591
He'll remain in a coma long enough for D-Island to remain unpopulated so that one future Canon was experiencing comes true where he and her are the only ones left on the island.

>>13571552
>4th encountered Azazel
Or the NUNs just poked at Atlantis's Mir until it manifested. Which honestly seems more probable and less convoluted.
>post Heaven's Door
Hester straight up says they got Atlantis's Mir during Heaven's Door. Maybe they sunk it then let everyone drown then fished the Mir out a couple days later.
That seems sufficiently dickish.
We also don't actually know if Atlantis sunk (but I'd be very surprised, what with the name and all).
My take on the timeline is this (asuming Vagrant is D/one of the six Azazels that we started off with)

>>13571564
To echo Sakura's own near-conversion to Festum or Crystals.

Rather than being saved by new medical treatments though, Kazuki will be saved by his own will to live. Remember his wish or something he was writing and scratching out? "I want to live". And the island's Mir would grant him that desire if his will is strong enough.

>>13571612
That's actually possible. More than likely the reason for the two cour gap was for the animation, not for the audio recording, since they used lines we're just getting now in trailers.

It can't have completely sunk, assuming that's the same Alvis island they're hoping to integrate the Ashoka core with.

The fact Narain knows about the island too means he may have once participated in its destruction, or at least managed to have enough of a clearance to know about it. It's not like they'd want to keep the location of a fallen and still potentially combat-capable island out for any disgruntled grunt to look up.

>>13571604
Mark Titan?

>>13571641
Kazuki becomes like his mother; except instead of a Festum form, he takes on the form of Mark Elf.

Sein autonomously later fuses with him and takes on the old Salvator look, but with Elf's head and some of Mk Elf's design elements.

Wouldn't be surprising; I mean, he's been hellbent on trying to save normal civilians rather than being a sycophant to Hester, going so far as to fight his own people to do so. He also was relegated to being a General of a "backwater" transport hub that happened to be attacked by Roadrunner. And this was before he partially became Festumized and discovered the power of the Esperantos.

Granted, he may have also been put in charge of the Ashoka Mir with it being the backup for NUNS if the Atlantis Core didn't cooperate.

>>13571702
>Granted, he may have also been put in charge of the Ashoka Mir with it being the backup for >NUNS if the Atlantis Core didn't cooperate.

This makes sense since, at the start, it didn't look like Narain's little Esperanto cult was a problem to the NUNs. A nuisance, yes, if they thought they had to plug Jonathan in his ranks, but not outright ROE Alpha material.

Maybe after Hawaii got bombed, that's when he really realized the NUN head office don't really care for people and started to look for other options of survival....

>>13571702
Now, I don't believe the initial attack by Roadrunner was Hester's doing. That's just impractically stupid. Esperantos hadn't become a real thing yet and that's too much shooting yourself in the foot. The Esperanto stuff only really began when Emery was discovered.

The second one though, if she didn't make Vagrant tell Roadrunner to go attack Ashoka, she certainly didn't make Vagrant change it's course and was probably glad that all those filthy Esperantos

>>13571684
The Dead Aggressor subtitle always confuses me because I see some people use it to refer to the original, but it technically still is a subtitle in Exodus.

>>13571733

>>13571702

I don't know. There's only a short couple days between Hawaii and when they get to Tatsumiyajima.
It's possible they stopped off at Srinigar, but that's a really long trip for Persues to take given how dangerous it was.
>>13571729
>NUN
>not shooting themselves in the foot
C'mon now.

>>13571769
You guys need to learn to understand the others viewpoints.

Hester's logic is entirely based on
>Is it a Festum?
>Yes -> Proceed to activate PillageandMurder.exe
>No -> Do not activate PillageAndMurder.exe
>Will activating PillageandMurder.exe benefit humanity as a whole?
>Yes ->Proceed to activate PillageandMurder.exe
>No ->Do not activate PillageAndMurder.exe

The destruction of Hawaii holds no benefit for Hester. Narian hadn't even made contact with Ashoka or Emery yet.

If the classification of Azazel Types is to be believed, then that might have even been Roadrunner's first appearance which would mean Vagrant wasn't activate at that point either

You people are pretty fucking hard headed about this at time. Hester and the Nuns have been fighting a losing war with giant golden that eat and pretend to be people for years. Most forms of global communication are gone. The Alvis groups from their perspective have refused to cooperate with the NUNs and leaked information to the enemy that has made them stronger.

You guys trying to paint the Nuns has COMICALLY STUPID AND EVIL makes you look as bad as people who actually bought into ORB IS A PURE BASTION OF HOPE AND CAN DO NO WRONG.

The Nuns policies make sense based on development from 30 years of fighting horrible mind reading aliens. One or two settlements that APPEAR to be working but also dance on the razers edge aren't enough to prove to a bunch of people fighting that that's the way to live. Especially if you're privy to the fact that the Mir might just eat you for some reason like it did Soushi's Mom or that the Esperanto's have already internalized offering themselves to Mirs in exchange for stuff.

That shit doesn't sit right with me either. I mean fucking Misao wants to eat Miwa in exchange for helping them. For Hester and a lot of Nuns forces, having to lick the feet and be submissive to THE ENEMY is just too much.

> A few months ago, writer Tow Ubukata (Psycho-Pass 2, Ghost in the Shell Arise) announced that he will post an personal memoir of the nine days he spent in jail for allegations of domestic violence. Recently, a preview of said memoir has come to light as Ubukata shared his experience in being jailed.

>"I wanted to put this out there to offer my side of the arrest," Ubukata said in an interview. "My arrest seemed almost like a game to the lawyers and police and prosecutors, so I wanted to counterbalance that."

>Reportedly, Ubukata's account of his short prison time saw him meet several "quirky" characters within the cells, including elderly homeless citizens and Japanese-speaking Iranian people.

>"Some of them acted as my senpai in jail as they taught me the ropes of prison life," Ubukata remarked. "It made the nine days of prison pretty tolerable! Of course, I met some people that truly deserved to be there, but that certainly isn't the whole story."

Somehow this made me think if Ubukata inserted some sort of social commentary on Japan's circa World War II in Fafner... I'm no history buff so I can't tell tho.

>>13571879

I actually dig everything in your post, but you can't definitively prove this (yet). It's never explicitly stated when they met, although it is (very) possible it was the case.
I think maybe he met Emery on Hawaii, but it seems he's had some contact with Mir, although there's now the possibility it was the Atlantis Mir.
Also, like the other anon said, there's only a few days difference, 3 to be precise, just looked.
Special Air Brigade: Perseus is established in those few days, Johnathan is assigned as a spy, I find it unlikely that they'd go all the way to India and then back to the North Pacific AND have Narain do his experiments with Ashoka.

>The destruction of Hawaii holds no benefit for Hester
It narrows the scope of the total regions the various NUN garrisons could be called upon to protect. Keeps resource costs down, she doesn't care if some people starve, just that mankind ultimately survives and the Festum die. It's fewer people to worry about in the meantime.

So hold up, I've got a question about Cores.

All three Arcadian Project islands have had kids locked in jars: Tsubaki/Orihime, proto-Idun, and Greg. They've also had identical "caves" for their kids. On one hand, this indicates that child-Cores were intended as a feature of all three Alvises. On the other hand, the episode about Soushi and Tsubaki's mom getting accidentally assimilated makes it seem like Chizuru strapped Tsubaki into the Core system as an on-the-spot decision to save Tsubaki's life, rather than as part of any grand plan.

So which is it: are child-Cores an intended shared feature of Alvises, or was putting Tsubaki in a vat and hoping she turned out okay a spur-of-the-moment attempt to save her?

>>13572416
I think the Alvis things were always going to have a core that developed one way or another. They were always going to take the form of a human because it'd be influenced by the human residents up above. But they were going to be mainly Festum and if they were to be influenced by humans, it was just from... watching them. I think Tatsumiyajima broke that a bit by having a core that had actual human essence/living relatives on the islands in it.

>>13572416
>So which is it: are child-Cores an intended shared feature of Alvises, or was putting Tsubaki in a vat and hoping she turned out okay a spur-of-the-moment attempt to save her?
Probably the latter.

Now that you bring it up, both male cores may have been formed by the Mir as a means to communicate with the humans (given that the Seto Mir was considered friendly with humans at the time), if they weren't just unique genetically altered children born from the same vats that produced the island children.

>>13572416
My guess is that it was leaked infor from people that left after the Zero fiasco, maybe they got picked up by the other Alvises.
Zero debacle was after Akira and Rina were born. Honestly, I'm pretty sure that's wrong though.
>>13572429
This seems more likely.

112KB, 416x692px

>>13572429
Oh, that makes sense to me. The vats existed with the expectation that Mir would eventually create a human-form Core, and Chizuru saved Tsubaki by throwing her into a vat that was already set up to support the development of a Festum-ish-but-also-human-ish being.
