Finished reading up to the latest translation- Only Kamachi would write a mecha story, yet not make the MC a pilot of said mecha, but still have him destroy them like a boss
The first [Heavy Object] volume came out by the end of 2009, around that time Index had it's first 'war' arc, I seeing some resemblance in the faster paced, larger scale conflict in both of them. In Heavy Object's case it's more streamlined, that is to say the bulk of each chapter, probably 80% is purely delegated to the conflict at hand, and every new chapter jumps to a different conflict in a different setting making it seem episodic. For now this is fine, it's all introductory.
(Does anyone get the feeling he love introducing his settings and crazy ideas more than characters 
)
The remaining 20% is that good old Kamachi-style wackiness, epic tsukkomi lines, and romcom scenes
The greatest WTF moment so far has to be the baby penguin intervention in the middle of the gunfight
The two MC, Quenser in particular, is really worthy of carrying on the philosophy of 'Fukoda', both in landing themselves in to trouble and getting involved with troublesome girls.

That was a pleasant surprise, from the way he was sexually harrassing Floryietta all the time, you wouldn't think Heivia to be the romantic type
Quenser on the other hand... Just doesn't quite get it
P.S - I know I said I would read the story first even if it's in Chinese, but between Heavy Object, Mahouka and Rental Magica, you would think I'm just trying torture myself mentally or something
Why can't I just love the simple ones...?
