Introducing another out-of-radar series!



Summary: A mecha otaku is reincarnated into another world as Ernesti Echevalier (Eru). In this world, exist huge humanoid weapon known as Silhouette Knight. Dreaming of piloting those robots, Eru, with childhood friends, Archid Walter and Adeltrud Walter: together they will aim to become Knight Runner, pilot of Silhoutte Knight.

For those who likes magic and mecha battle and OP protagonist. Mecha design reminds me to Vanguard Bandits, a title of PSX game (boy, I love that game). By the way, this series can be a little bit tedious with explanation and explanation. for those who expected any romance or harem, sorry, but you will not find it on this one.

Is that a main character a boy or a girl? I'm like 99% sure it's a girl, but that 1% tells me it might be a trap after all.

I highly suspected our MC is a trap

Eru is a cute beautiful......boy!! His appearance is inherited from his kind mother, and his sharp eyes (Color is like his mother) is inherited from his father.

As expected ;)

vol 3 poses like a girl vol 2 smile like a girl....i dont believe you D:

It's a trap!

hahaha, my radar said you better start believing :D
And by the way, He is still 10 years old as of vol 3. He is not only cute, he is strong and smart as well

So, how come IT'S dressed like a girl. The boots he wears look like thigh high socks !

If Eru-chan hear you, he will pout and said, "so rude! even I would cry hearing that"
Anyway, as for the clothes he wears... well it's just suit him, so no problem, right? ;)

So, he just likes to cross dress?

Reminds me of Candidate for the Goddess

Err nope, it's just, well, he wears what fits him. :heh:

My head hurts. Guyirl's design kinda reminds me of Quenser from Heavy Object.

Personality? Is he recognized for his achievements?

Just think that clothes are for its efficiency and lightness.

Personality wise, Eru...loves robot! mecha otaku to the core, all he thinks are about mecha mecha and mecha. Clever and reliable, also calm and collected. The type to smile a devil smile with angel face, sending a shiver towards everyone who is surprised by his intelligence. When in battle, he is like child playing with toys, often utter words like: "don't disappoint me..." and after a few minutes, "what? it's already ended?", in other words a battle junkie.

His nickname (more like, his Silhouette Knight nickname) The Fierce God.

No, because he is still a child. A child making an astounding achievement like that would shame the knights face. The knights face, is the country face, so it is decided that the truth didn't revealed. Eru didn't complain, he said, he already gets to pilot a Silhouette Knight and that's enough for him.

So this is going to be one of those stories where the protagonists complains all the time about being mistaken for a girl and yet refuses to get a haircut and start dressing in a less effeminate way?

no, he did not complain, since he already getting used to it (Getting mistaken as girl, not like he cares though other than his height). Besides, It's a gift from his mother you know? Trap is ultimate!

This is a bout the story of developing the greatest Silhouette Knight, and facing many great consequences from the new weapon, e.g. war using those newly developed weapon etc.
Oh I know, something similar to this: Gundam?

So it's really a girl?

^
fueee~~ I mistyped that! >.<
Anyway, Eru is a boy, a normal human as well

Does he remember his past life? And does he helps his friends in some way?
