@ Jak - They look fine to me, here's mine, just imagine him looking younger:

@ Jak

You have to, four definitely-not-Asian guys in Odaiba? Suspicious...

No, really. it's not only matters of skin color or trivial shit like that, four of them is a war-torn young veteran and form such they' emit 'killer instinct' on a whim (think Laura before the defrosting, every other student is scared of her), as well as different facial expression form common people (will look scary no matter how they tried to be friendly). The physical difference just heightened this.

@ Eras you've posted that I remember.

The first male picture and the second trap picture are new. They're new pictures altogether and less blurry as well.

Side note - It's official; I got more reviews from "daydreams" than from "what lies in shadow". Didn't know that guys were romantics

[DarkJak2050]

Part of their time as mercenaries, not only they were disciplined, they were also put through "re-hab" during their training and inbetween "assignments". That's how they're able to go about in society.

Well, that's good, that means they can fool average joes most of the time, they can't jsut fool well tranied people like Laura, Tatenashi, or Chifuyu however.

It's still better than emitting Soul Pressure killer instinct at the time.

@Eras

Why do you think grimdark story is not really popular? Even Sacred Twins is like that by the time I tackled serious problem instead of hugging twincest/harem antics.

Still, it's refreshing if you can do light and dark story all at once, you'll be always motivated. (part of the reason I wrote Reaching For You)

Now, I'm going to make Sacred Twins very funny yet at the same time angsty (seriously, the guys is watching porn while the girls is mourning about their happier past!)

It's part of the reason why almost all the drafts here tend to be lighthearted antics despite the fact that Irish was built to be completely opposite of a harem hero and his background has him growing up with a destroyed childhood and turning into an enfant terrible child soldier.

Having a comically serious protagonist tends to balance out light and dark. I'll probably get more reviews once Irish meets Tatenashi

We'll never know until we find out.

it's a guarantee, most of the reader would like your OC screwed by their idol for the lulz.

(Its only a matter of time until knew the fucked up situation in V7 is basically her fault... )

And that's because it's only my guessing.

Irish isn't a pushover though, he's not gonna hesitate to tell her where to shove it once he gets pissed off. But, of course, he ultimately he can't do anything because she's physically stronger than him without the skull suit

[DarkJak2050]

I don't know if you noticed, but how did the size comparison between the IS and the Silverback a few pages back. And it is like how I pictured it when I first came up with Project Silverback.

The Silverback will be 2/3 to 3/4 the height of the IS. Even though the IS is bigger than the Silverback, my OCs actually takes that being smaller is an advantage, just like Irish and his skull suit.

Depends on what you mean by popular, I mean, during the beginning of sacred twins, there would be many reviews, but ever since we made Charles a guy, that's when we get the decreased reviews and even flaming.

So, in ff.net, to be popular, just write about a canon couple, mostly IchikaChar or about laura and you'll be fine.

The bigger they are the harder they fall! Topple the iron giants!

Anyway, I don't really plan for him to fight IS head on so the advantage he has is stealth and not being caught by the mini-gundams.

And reviews =/= popular, indicated by the fact that the chapter with IchiMado & ChaLaura got the most hit and Visitor on it (meaning more people READ it, not just whine and complain).

[MeisterBabylon]

Jak: What kind of missions are the Silverbacks going to take after getting the battlesuit? Attacking the Academy? Destroying JSDF bases? Attacking buses carrying students? Or working abroad and destroying bases? I hope this isn't too spoilerfic, I'm just planning when to bring them in.

Everyone: One of the few ideas that came to me while reading Silverback was the reversal of a nation's fortunes. We know men and women have switched places. We can see that in Silverback the US in 2021 is but a faint shadow of her former self, and in The Black Rabbit, I depicted Europe as almost dystopian on a whim. I was thinking of taking it further: Russia, China and India are now world superpowers, Africa is working towards an EU unified arrangement, and the Middle East is a bustling democracy. Mexico has just launched their first aircraft carrier, and the slums are in Chicago, not Buenos Ares. Japan's place in this strange strange world will be told in Mjolnir. The spillover effects of change can be felt even in SEA, no country along the Straits is a backwater, the Phillipines have established a new spaceport, and Asean is working towards formal unification. Together with Singapore, they will become the largest country ever to exist, in space.

Ridiculously mind-boggling, I know, but that's why its so tempting to explore the effects of Tabane's meddling.

What do you guys think?

The skull suit doesn't really provide Irish protection doesn't it? If it doesn't, I don't blame him for using stealth.

And how exactly that happens in ten years? Unless Chinese & Indians create more I.S. than U.S. did.

In Canon U.S. still portrayed as Superpower with nifty toys (*cough*manportableantiISweapon*cough*). France USED to be glorious but rapidly declining. The Euopean unified themselves, and German is so militaristic it's not funny.

EDIT: Don't tell me it's Tabane doing in the wizard again.

You're making silverback sound like a bunch of terrorists Not even Irish's team attack buses full of students!

How did all these countries get so strong/fucked up? I thought you saud everything in your fanon was idealistic and peaceful?

@ Jak - It does, but it still hurts like a bitch and he's already frail without it so he needs to keep injuries to a minimum. He can fight units but only of the pilot is inexperienced or trying to hold back.

Side note - Does anybody have an idea of a nationality I can give Irish? I was planning it to be either British, French or even Irish like his nickname. What do you guys think?

To what extent can the skull suit protect Irish?

[Eratas123]

@ Jak - It protects him from energy blasts and ballsitic impact to a certain extent but that's only because it was meant to protect IS pilots and they faced those dangers outside the suit. It's even a miracle he can wear the thing considering it was meant for pilots only.

Still waiting for a suggestion for a nationality.

[ZeroXSEED]

ASEAN? UNIFIED?! PFFFTTT

I used to think that but recently...

Spoiler for Lol political:

Malaysian: Send an armed patrol boat, well capture the flag and increase our territory.

Malaysian: Ram them using KD Renchong Patrol Boat

*KRI Tedung Naga is heavily damaged*

Indonesian: ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! PREPARE DESTROYER NAO!

*Sending KRI Untung Suropati*

Mayalsian: Send a stealth submarine (Scorpene-class)

Indonesian: FUUUUUUUUU-

*Sending a couple of F-16*

Yeah, Troll vs Internet Tough Guy, that would be messy.

Back to topic guys. Irish's Nationality? Where exactly Irish was found by the anti-I.S. terrorist anyway?
