Ahhh, Maria - cool and calm even while the rest of the team are screaming like girls. Including Ogami.

I think you're confusing "cool and calm" with "completely wasted".

Also, I believe they stuck Iris in one of those skimpy bunnygirl outfits.

This doesn't help at all, believe me. :cry:

America doesn't have more games like these because... gently caress, I don't know, it's probably because everyone hears "dating sim" and automatically thinks either "lol porn" or "lol easy as pie." :(

America doesn't have more games like this because some portion of Japan wants Iris in a skimpy bunnygirl outfit/black lacey lingerie. :cry:

Frantic battle is the best time to talk about giving presents and gossip about who's been stalking Ogami more. In fact, the only thing that could make this more appropriate is if each pilot also had a little cup of tea and a mini picnic basket in their Koubu, because obviously these battles are more along the lines of 'trip to the park' than they are 'saving Japan from hideous evil.'

The secret is that while the Koubu need the pilot to function, the Koubu does all the fighting. The pilot is just a battery.

So the pilots can chat, have tea, compose haiku, all in the middle of combat.

1. Treat Iris like she's three years old. She'll hate it. Therefore I'll enjoy it!

2. Um, so why is Kohran naked while she's working on her laundry machine?

3. Still prefer Sumire. I like that she keeps calling Sakura a country hick. Also her cleavage hangs out for a reason - she has warm, tasty bread that needs eating, and it has to be put out in the open to cool off.

Let's see...

I like Kohran's slit skirt too. Not a vote changer though.

Does it seem like the ladies are letting Ogami win the Koi Koi matches? Iris could have taken the first round but went for more points - if I understood the match right.

I expect Kanna to hit Ogami over the head with a club and drag him off for snoo-snoo. Still, second place for not being insane.

Yes, Kanna could provide Ogami his daily requirement of beatings. But then any of the girls could manage physical torture. Now for MENTAL torture, Sumire is the obvious choice.

Edit: Also I just realized Kanna doesn't have a Koubu. She just beats the enemy to death with her fists... Kanna No Ken or whatever.

Oh where to begin...

I think we all know anything Kohran would grow in a garden can kill and eat a mere crow. And have tentacles in case Ogami wandered by.

Kanna is... nice, isn't she? Ogami would never be happy with her. However it seems that Sumire and Kanna are friendly, so perhaps Kanna can dispense the beatings Sumire would give him but of course, is too much the lady to actually do.

Any chance you could post what happens if Ogami misses one of those blocks, btw?

Kanna understands Sumire. See, the more you tease Sumire the more she likes you. And if one day the boat you're on mysteriously sinks and you have to swim from Okinawa to Tokyo, that's just Sumire's way of teasing you back. :3:
