Now that schiit is going down. I would so like one. But there is only one problem
This might be a good anime to watch.I hate the 'good' MCs. Asseylum and Inaho are honestly the weakest characters of the show.
Inaho has had 0 character development and does the exact same ********** thing every single time. Oh wait, plot time. His eye hurts now hinting at death flag......no. Stop. Aldnoah Zero has pretty much even pissed off Urobutcher when it went with its judgment of cheap thrills. They've already made deaths as cheap as Inaho man-handling every situation.
The princess on the other hand, also has 0 development. Ok. She likes peace and Earth. Tell me about it, show why. Nope, besides dem purty purty birds and peace and flirting with an enemey solder while tens of thousands of her own soldiers die under her name. Never says anything about it, never feels even a pain for it, just goes about doing stuff.
Today's episode with Asseylum pissed me off the most. "I alleysum vers allusia blah blah order you to cease hostilities Slaine"
This comment is good on that

But essentially, despite the series trying to protray her as a down to Earth type of girl. It has inconsistently shown that she will still use her hereditary and monarchial entitlement as a higher being when needed. She, like the person she fell in love with, is idealistic and just goes by the moment without a care for anything else. The entitlement and hereditary thing isn't that big of a deal as it still kinda fits that she would use it to help out whenever possible. But that was one part of the show where they could have added much death towards why she is striving towards her goals. But nope.
All of Inaho's friends and sister.. God dayum the fricking double standards. Oh , all my friends in the other square are killed. Coolio. But Inaho kun!!! stapphhhhh staphhhhh. Pisses me off to no end. They are barely able to pilot those machines and yet are still alive and clicking.
This video and Shirobako kinda alludes to how production companies way way up above generally call shots to increase profits.
Urobutcher, the man who originally crafted the premise and all that, has already publically called out Aldnoah Zero for it's asspullery.
As much as how things have gotten so very interesting. I have no interest in it.
They've been digging themselves into multiple holes of intense situations that just resolve themselves naturally or just de-tense after cheap thrills.
The best character in the entire show is Slaine. He exhibts humanity, emotion, internal struggle, despair, resolution, and determination of all the other souless characters combined and then some.
Seeing the ways things are going
Sorry I'm salty about this.He most likely wont be the winner. And the slapstick 0 development couple of awesomeness having not even romantic development past semi-flirting will meet up at the end and somehow guide the world to peace
I just love Slaine and the darker parts of the series so much more.
Yeah. He seems like he'll be taking the short end of the stick. Quite unfortunate.
Newest Rolling Girls episode was interesting. Not as flashy as the previous ones. Maybe we're getting to something dark now?
