Yeah, not healthy to put him back into the mode of a threat detector that sees literally everything as a threat.

Sansker · 2013-02-22, 12:02

But he has control now. Really using the scanners should not be a problem. Otherwise using the react mode should be a problem as well.

I still can't get over the fact of how much older Erio looks while Caro hasn't changed much. Makes me lol.
Mariya reminds me of Vivio...

Touma looking all happy when Cypha showed up pissed me off though.

Sansker · 2013-02-22, 12:06

Thoma wants to be friends with every single criminal he meets. If you are an Eclipse Driver that is a plus for him.

Rising Dragon · 2013-02-22, 12:22

*sighs* Try to remember they saved Isis and Lily from him, and that they tried to offer him help with his infection, an offer they have open to him still. He cannot see them as people who are pure evil.

Think of him as Shirou, with a vengance.

Dude, that's just insulting. Shirou would go for a kill on the spot, knowing what Cypha did.

It literally strips any form of identification from his eyes and reducing everything to "threats" based on some definition determined by a book which does not seem to have a proper IFF installed and even labels allies as "threats."

Even if I'm the one who can now pull the trigger, I'd be kind of hesitant to go back to something like that.

I'm more surprised that the RF6 crew of all people are actually criticizing him for it.

It's like they completely forgot about the time they all met Nanoha, the girl who wanted to befriend people trying to chop her head off.

bhl88 · 2013-02-22, 12:28

Yeah, but he kept on releasing Shinji, didn't he? And Shinji's a bigger bastard.

Justin_Brett · 2013-02-22, 12:29

I can understand not using those scanner eyes; they honestly don't look that useful to anyone who wants to fight intelligently.

That's because Shirou is a complete doormat who considered someone who treated him like dirt a friend.

Crap, I was wrong. It was in Fate route. And Shirou was willing to cut the wakame's arm off.

@Justin

No, it's because he don't care for himself.

What i find ironic is that he's friendly with BOTH Signum and Cypha ...even Signum seems to think that's a bit arkward xDU

Oh, it just hits my head ...people usually complain about Nanoha not having enough pagetime in FORCE despite her name in the title so... what would be the fandom's reaction if the season was callen "Mahou Senki Lyrical Tohma" xD?

Sansker · 2013-02-22, 12:53

Thoma still doesn't have that much pagetime and half of it he needs to be save, gets his ass kick or is acting like a not really bright person.

That was more or less the same as Nanoha's role in A's except for the part about "acting like a not really bright person" xDU

Sansker · 2013-02-22, 13:07

Not really and Nanoha did save everyone with her SLB at first so she wasn't always in the need to be save as Thoma is when he enters any battle so far.

From the fandom? I suspect extreme burning rage.

His first on-screen action was saving Lily, if you remember.

Justin_Brett · 2013-02-22, 19:39

Ironically, gaining more power seems to have hurt his competence.

Nanya01 · 2013-02-22, 19:50

You know, I wonder if the fanbase would like Fate if she was a boy and if they'd like Touma if he was a girl?

Keroko · 2013-02-22, 19:59

Hmmm, hard to say. It's very possible the pairing would still be widely popular, even if under a slightly different group of fans. Fate would certainly have a lot of different fans though.

Force seems to be a continuation of the StrikerS theme that just power isn't going to cut it without training in that regard.

I suppose I can understand that point of view, but... would it really kill Tsuzuki to just let him own the place again every once in a while?
