Heavy Object - Episode 12 (Iguazu Mountains 3) Discussion / Poll

[Faux Mecha]

still wondering why those people wanted to blow that dam up & causing unnecessary harm to the civilians by flooding their homes despite the better alternative came up by Havia, wouldn't that cause a negative reputation & ruins the image of the kingdom? or they were desperate as fuck at that time thus they don't give shit about human rights violation, they rather let those hundreds of innocent people drown for the sake of victory?

also Princess being jealous of Frolaytia is cute, i wonder what happens if she knew about the groping incident, double the pain (pleasure) for Qwent?

From their pov it's probably safer to blow up the dam and seal it's movement than to get up close to confront the Object.

So the only way to stop them is to destroy the Object first.

Those innocents weren't members of the world powers, so yes. (I assume the concept of Clean Wars gives some protection to World Powers civilians - who have their "safe countries", but none to the unaffiliated.)

And Havia's alternative wasn't better, from their POV. Less costly, but more risky.

[Shlugo]

Havia should really word himself better, as to not aggravate Princess. Never a good idea to annoy someone who has enough firepower to blow up mountains.

This was a nice resolution to the mission. Qwenthur plan this time was reckless even compared to the others and I liked Princess just shooting right through the canyon wall. Even Havia managed to hold his own.

What happened later was bit weird. So Sir Dofus being "involved in the engagement" impressed Capistrano enough that they moved him to the top of the list, despite the fact that he went down like a bitch, and then he falls for Qwenthur incredibly obvious charade? Is it me, or are most of the nobles a bit dimwitted?

This was once again a fun arc, and it's nice that Frolaytia actually took an active part in the mission for once. Can't wait for the next episode.

It's fine. It's the mountain Qwenser's on. Havia was safely(?) elsewhere, getting shot at by mere infantry.

Don't know if on purpose or total accident.

Actually this is quite on par with how certain officers give out medals to other by taking credit- in this case he technically didn't lie, he did took part in this dangerous operation and placed his life which turns out to be a success. All he needs to do is neglect to mention details in his report.

Also it's obvious to us because we know the truth, but can you say it's obvious to everyone seeing it? I mean, Qwenthur was pretty convincing...

It's not intentional

And typing Morse Code(?) via pistol shots is cool.

Finally, after waiting so long, one of my OTP's (Qwen x Fro) good moments (especially when talking to Halreed) animated.

[~Yami~]

oh boy... Milinda's ship is sinking? There's no way she could stand a chance against Frolaytia, right? Blushing Frolaytia is overkill.. a dominant girl got dominated by a mere commoner
Qwenthur pulled too many flags in this arc

I also like the "I'm also busy here!" moment.. I like how Milinda sulked to Havia everytime she can't get her away with Qwenthur
and that morse code with tunnel cannon tactic are very good.. Never expect that at all
Poor Frolaytia for not pulling any significant thing rather than helping Qwenthur walked

That's not very bro of him. Then again, he is annoyed by Qwenser ignorance about Princess feelings, so this might be his little revenge.

But Frolaytia is the one who would write the report, and besides it'd be kind of hard to hide the fact that the wreckage of his Object had to be collected 500 kilometers from where the action took place.

Was he really? He was so obviously overacting it, it'd take a very dim man to fall for that.

Frolaytia would write the report on her operation, not his. Also finding the wreckage just proves that he did put his life on the line. Remember he's not saying that he won the battle.

Put in it another way, in the first episode of this arc during the amphibious assault, would you deny the courage and contributions of those soldiers that might have gotten blown up by enemy fire? Same concept.

That's the advantage we have as an audience because we know the characters.

[Kenju of the Right]

is there no new episode this week?

[Chaos2Frozen]

Yeah, New year celebrations.
