Spoiler for Charle´s Revive:

Spoiler for Laura`s Regen:

Spoiler for Houki`s Akatsubaki. Won´t appear until ep.8-10:

She gains her personal IS in mid-year, provided by none other than her older sister, Sinonono Tabane, the genius scientist who single-handedly created IS.

Also, it cannot utilizes Equalizer due to same reason as Byakku Shiki, but it is designed as an all-round type, armed with two katana-style CQC blades which has secondary functions of firing advanced optical weapon(a red colored laser beam which has about same range as assault rifle), enabling it to be used as ranged weapon as well.

The blade on the right is named Amazuki(雨月) which is optimized for 1:1 combat. With its secondary function activated, it shoots out a shower of red colored laser beams from around IS, in a concentrated pattern toward a single target.

The blade on the left is named Karaware(空裂) which is optimized for combating multiple enemies. With its secondary function activated, it shoots out a shower of red colored laser beams from around IS, in a scatter pattern toward multiple targets around it.

According to Tabane, AkaTsubaki is currently the most powerful IS in terms of basic capability, since it is the first true 4th Gen. IS and therefore equipped with fully functional Fold-Out armor.

The Fold-Out armor of AkiTsubaki can be configured instantly to be optimized for various roles, such as attack, defense, and mobility. When fully optimized, the performance of AkiTsubaki becomes twice of the capability of normal status.

The creation of AkiTsubaki makes Sinonono Tabane the only person who can currently produce 4th Gen. IS, since the rest of the world is now beginning to develop 3rd Gen. test types. For the rest of the world, 4th Gen. IS is still a theoretical concept on a drawing board.

The advantage of wielding powerful 4th Gen. IS enables Houki - who is not as skilled as other heroines yet in terms of IS aptitude - to be on even ground with her rivals.

AkaTsubaki is equipped with One Off ability named Kenran Butou (絢爛舞踏) which enables Houki to recover the energy of her own IS, and also recover energy of other IS's she comes in contact with. It is presumed that Tabane specifically chose this ability so Houki could act as the primary support for Ichika's Hyakku Shiki, which usually suffers from high energy consumption rate.

Maverick05 Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2010	Spoiler for Charle´s Revive: Rafale - Revive Custom II is Charles's personal IS, provided by Dunoa Corporation. It is a heavily modified version of Rafale - Revive, a latest-model 2nd generation IS, famous for sturdy design and ease of use. While it lacks special equipment utilizing state-of-the-art technology found in most 3rd generation IS, it boast wide range of arsenal made of conventional weaponry. Notable change from production variant is partial removal of armor plate and 2 pairs of multi-thruster wings, replaced with 2 modified multi-thrusters with overall increase in speed and maneuverability. By stripping large portion of basic equipment (Official term is 'Preset') R-Revive Custom II possesses twice as many Expansion Slot as normal variant, and is equipped with around 20 different kinds of Equalizer. The weapons stored in R-Revive Custom II includes; Vent - .55 cal assault rifle with 16 rounds magazine. Garm - .61 cal assault cannon capable of firing a non-explosive cluster round in addition to conventional ammunition. Rain of Saturday - .62 cal dual barreled heavy shotgun. Bread Slicer - a Blade designed for CQC Gray Scale - a CQC weapon categorized as pile banger which is a pointed battering ram propelled by explosive cartridge stored in revolver-type magazine for rapid firing. While being effective only at extremely close range, it is the most powerful weapon wielded by 2nd Gen. IS. Integrated into arm-mounted physical shield, it can be armed after purging the shield plates that encase is. Spoiler for Laura`s Regen: Laura's personal IS and a 3rd Gen. IS prototype developed in German. Designed around AIC (Active Inertia Canceller) which is capable of projecting an inertia negating field, it is based around CQC (where AIC is most effective) but is also equipped with several Equalizer which capable of ranged combat, making it a fairly stable all-round type. Basic armament (Preset) consists of AIC projector and 6 wire-guided daggers. The wires connected to daggers are strong enough function as tentacles, capable of to immobilizing, constricting, and even throwing a target as large as IS. Schwarz Regen is also equipped with a .80 cal heavy rail gun, mounted on shoulder. It was initially installed with an illegal Valkyrie Trace system which was kept secret even to Laura, but was subsequently removed after its discovery. Spoiler for Houki`s Akatsubaki.
