You know what I mean. Essentially he is a REAL supersoldier. Far too many anime have supersoldier characters being too normal. Here L-Elf has both the reputation and the skills to back it up.

The man is dangerous. Genuinely dangerous. He can probably take on his entire former team mates by himself, despite similar training. They did say in ep 1 he tends to steal all the kills before anyone else gets to do anything.

So you mean he's like Sousuke from FMP in a way....

If they go that route for him in the school stuff for this anime than there are going to have a ton of memorable and hilarious moments. Though I don't see anyone really being his Chidori as none of the girls have that personality to fit it.

James Bond isn't a super soldier though. I think Jason Bourne is a much better comparison, since he actually uses traps and plans.

this anime has more cliches and generic archetypes than any parody anime i can think of, but it does have some sweet animation so i can stick with it for the eye candy.

Another shocking episode. My assumptions about the story keeps getting crushed underfoot.

So in the end L-11 is going to work together with Haruto. Never expected that.

It's interesting to see ARUS using Haruto as a propaganda tool. Although Haruto did realized about that thanks to L-11.

L-11 planning so far ahead makes him a genius. Looks like his plans with Haruto is going to be a well-thought one.

Haruto acting berserk is a little creepy. My guess is that he enters that mode whenever his body sustained a certain amount of damage. To get some energy or life force from his victim perhaps?

Concerning the blood test; it is actually extremely unlikely that an off the shelf analyser would be able to detect an unknown anomaly in a blood sample. By design, the machine needs to know what to look for in order to detect "strange" things in the blood. The program literally can't see what's right in front of it unless you tell it what to look for. You can tell a machine to search for cancer, viruses, bacteria, changed blood composition and pH. But you CAN'T tell it to "look for something unusual".

This is why when there is a new performance enhancing drug on the market, one had to develop a brand new test to detect it. The machine can only find what you already know to look for.

So the only way for Haruto to find out is by being a lab rat, huh.

or it's just Saki being to paranoid, they might take some test into Haruto's body but not to the level of strapping him in the bed or keeping him in the comatose state so they can experiment to him as much as they like

I mean, he's the new propaganda tool/ace pilot for ARUS and JIOR

He wouldn't be a lab rat for very long. The VVV agents would not want him examined by outside factions.

Didn't expect L-elf announcing his decision to rebel against the Dorssians. There's always something to catch us off-guard each episode.

Well, he said he want ot liberate Dorussia, no matter what it's mean. Maybe right now true power lay in hands of corrupted oligarhs, who controll emperor/empress and he want to turn situation around.

lol how to make an overpowered supersoldier in the serie... seeing how absurd powerfull he is and how incompetent the ARUS are... even Rambo+Terminator+James Bond pales in comparison with L-elf.

The key thing is that the opposition knew about how dangerous he is. That's why they actually sent a squad of flame-thrower troopers to kill one person. They are basically treating him like he is a Xenomorph.

Somehow I always seem to think of Guilty Crown when I watch this and that above statement even more so now...

Saki helps Haruto find a cure and along the way he discovers what a great person she is. Then right when he starts falling for her they kill her off and oh well I always have Shoko...

Lol, L-Elf going all Rambo. Not even sure how he got access to half the weapons during his rampage. And now he wants Haruto to form a contract with him? trololololol

Even more LOL at Rukino's genre 'savviness'. The moment she hears 'osananajimi' in regards to Haruto and Shouko, her face looks as if to tell "Damn, I think this is gonna be an uphill battle."

L-Elf is definitely came from same training camp as Heero Yuy and Sosuke Sagara. Give the bastard a giant robot already. Heero has Wing Zero Gundam and Sosuke has Laevateinn, L should have a badass mech of his own.
