you supposed to not think about why they look similar that much .
only one that make sense Quatrine because she is test tube baby and Duo II because he is Father Maxwell son(?). Kathrine is Relena grandmother so maybe translation error kinda ironic consider original Heero the politician is hardly similar to Heero the pilot

This is so headache-inducing. @_@ I really hope the rumor that this story line is supposed to be a path to find the sequel (as opposed to being the definitive sequel) turns out to be true. (Even if for no other reason than that I don't want Hilde to be dead.) |

Okay, let me get this straight.
We have random resource satellites with magic algae that can terraform a planet crashing into Mars, everyone deciding after the war that the Earth Sphere isn't cool anymore and emigrating to said magically terraformed place (which no one during the series mentions even remotely, although it obviously has been there for quite some years), Iria Winner opening a hospital in who knows where on Mars and Mrs. Darlian of all people checking in there for who knows what reason, Duo being completely and utterly random, Quatre stumbling upon a bunch of new, incomplete Gundams in his basement just before crap hits the fan (how convenient), some bullcrap chain of hatred continuing although in EW everyone agreed to peace, Noin's older brother, whose existence no one in the series mentions even remotely as well, becoming President of Mars under the name of a crazy, hated military leader everyone thinks is dead, Epyon somehow ending up on Mars with a crappy green arm after Zechs apparently hadn't had the brains to self-destruct it like the other pilots, Zechs being completely useless in general, what with going to Mars with Noin and having achieved JACK in stopping all the crap even though his Tallgeese Asspull can off 250 suits in one go, Quatrine using Gameshark, Phobos killing old fart Dixneuf which makes Zechs' ghost hologram produced by magic nanomachines do crazy stuff, not Relena but Catherine Bloom of all people becoming a MS pilot (what????)[edit: MS pilot trainer], a bunch of randoms declaring war because they were bored, ninjas injecting Relena with the PPP while she wasn't looking, resulting in her being frozen to prevent genocide because it totally makes sense to link the fate of 3 billion people (when the heck did they become so many?) to the lifespan of a 16, 17 year old girl and no one being able to do anything about it because apparently there's no one in the entire ESUN who doesn't have magic nanomachines up their ass, making Heero, who was shoved into a freezer, too, for who knows what reason the only viable option to carry out Operation Mythos, which is killing Relena, which in turn would mean the death of 3. Billion. People., including the effin' main cast, who are all helping him out for some seriously messed up reason instead of doing something sensible like continuing Hilde's research, Quatrine using her Gameshark again to summon 50 MD Maguanacs out of nowhere before playing Dance Dance Revolution in her MS and making a ninja escape, the Mars Feds using their Gameshark, too to have 500 MS show up out of the same nowhere, all to boost eventual model kit sales (seriously, wtf were Zechs and Noin doing?!), Relena popping in and out of places randomly asking for her own death (which would result in 3 billion people dying!), Heero shedding manly tears, and a lot more MS appearing out of thin air to be used as cannon fodder by our beloved Disney princess Gundam. Which is still in a freaking cloak! In short: Spoiler for FT in a nutshell:
*sigh* Now that I got that off my chest, seriously, which part did I miss that explains this mess? I'm completely and utterly lost here. Or am I supposed to smoke something before reading this? Which reminds me, thanks for the translation Deacon. Even if this novel causes strong urges to bang your head against a wall... Last edited by IkuzeMinna; 2017-01-09 at 15:54.

First off, many, MANY thanks Deacon for actually reading this and taking the time to translate for the rest of us. Deeply appreciated!
Ikuze, you make me laugh with your reinterpretation of the situation, it's so spot on. Ya, Relena's death is the trigger to kill off the entire poplar of Mars (my sister glared at me when I told her that part because of how ridiculous that was), yet people still want her dead for some odd reason... Maybe Dorothy doesn't want to share Ruler of the Universe title..? Especially not with the former Queen of the World. So killing millions of people off is the easiest way to sweep the whole incident under the rug? And she gets to kill off the original pilots too, 2 birds with 1 stone! Cathy Bloom isn't a pilot, she only trained Phobos... by throwing knives at him, because everyone knows that's how you train MS pilots, especially Gundam pilots. Quote:

The "Merciless Fairies"? Truth be told, the story does seem more interesting after reading Deacon's synopsis. I've picked on some parts and forgotten others. Have Milliardo and Quaterine's motives been revealed yet?

This story line is rather goofy. I'm actually enjoying some fan fics I've found more than the plot for this. Still, it's a WIP, so I shall see how I like it at the end.
Thank you so much for the summaries, Deacon! *hugs* Also, this puts a new spin on things, I imagine? |

In the series it sounded like they were going to terraform it, which would make sense considering there had been a war and most money had been wasted on weapons and not terraforming planets. By the way, wasn't it said somewhere (most likely in the ever obscure EW novel) that terraforming Mars would take 50 years? Quote:
"Trowa Phobos (No Name) and Catherine Bloom undergo training as mobile suit pilots." It sounds like both of them were training to become pilots. And considering how messed up the characterizations and story are and how Catherine is present during the battles (I think she's on "Shorfok2"?), I wouldn't put it past Sumizawa. Apropos Catherine, I stumbled upon something interesting(?) again. Everyone probably knows "Robin Hood", "The Three Musketeers" or "The Count of Monte Cristo." The guy who wrote these and a crapload of other novels is Alexandre Dumas. Among his works is also a novel called "Catherine Blum" ("The Foresters" in English). Apparently it isn't interesting/popular enough for I can't find an actual summary but from what I gather it's some romance. What I do find summaries of is Heinrich Böll's "The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum." Though that book is about a woman going nuts and killing the reporter who dragged her name through the dirt. I doubt either are a reference and this is more of trivial knowledge like knowing that Canada means "big village" in Indian, but who knows? With stuff like Trowa Barton being evocative of Tim Burton, it's a possibility. |

No idea about how many years it would supposedly take Mars to be terraformed, though. But it's a harsh planet, so it would mean it's going to take a lot. It might only be partially-terraformed in MC0022, unless I missed a note in the timeline where it's 100% completed already. (EDIT: Then again... 3 billion people. :| IDK.)
