I May Be Just A Schoolgirl, But Now I'm A Schoolgirl With A Giant Robot.
I've only got a few scenes left in 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim! It's going to be so strange to finish this game!
Gouto being in love with Morimura and letting his pain over her death drive his decisions makes him a bit more of a disaster, and therefore slightly more interesting to me, but he's still going to have to cover some distance if he wants to catch up to the others.
Okino privately telling Hijiyama they can't win appeals deeply to me. I also like that Hijiyama rejects it.
I love that Fuyusaka knows Hijiyama as 'the yakisoba pan guy'.
There were fifteen survivors in 2188, all cloned, all compatible. Number fourteen would be Okino. Number fifteen: Tamao?
Amiguchi being startled and awkward when Yuki agrees to a date ('Uh... really? I wasn't actually expecting...') bolsters my headcanon that he flirts because he has no idea how to talk to girls, and the conversation is less intimidating if he has rules and a goal to focus on.
'So she's been monitoring me this whole time? She's actually some secret-service government spy? That's crazy... Also, not gonna lie, weirdly hot.' God bless you, Amiguchi.
I love that Okino's response to being called a 'cutie' is 'I'm not complaining.'
The game gets a bit more explicit about the consequences of activating Aegis on all the terminals: time as they know it will stop, their link to Universal Control will be completely cut off, everyone but the pilots will disappear and will never come back. 'We'd be completely isolated. Trapped in a dead world. Just us and the ruined city until the day we die.'
I can't believe this game keeps seeking out exactly what I love in fiction and then dropping it straight into my lap. These disaster teenagers are going to strand themselves alone together in an empty, ruined city for the rest of their lives, and I'm so here for that.
'I don't deserve your love.' Self-loathing, yesssss. Glad to have you here, Ei.
Fuyusaka has Morimura's memories of being in love with Izumi! Awkward and great.
I'm very much enjoying Ei being too self-loathing to reciprocate Fuyusaka's feelings. Also making things awkward by checking her for an activation switch without being clear about what he was doing.
I can't believe Hijiyama refused to run to the cafeteria and purchase a yakisoba pan when Okino was in danger! True love.
The flashback to Okino confessing to Hijiyama in order to screw with him was absolutely beautiful.
Also beautiful: Ogata's ill-fated attempt to confess to Tomi in open comms. I'm delighted. Rei was watching and laughed aloud throughout that entire scene.
I'm so pleased by how shameless this game is in throwing fodder for shipping everywhere.
I just love all these stupid kids. What great stupid kids.
