@ Senpai - Was wondering if I could make the skull suit size changeable. Would explain how Irish was using it since he was 10 and how Ichika manages to as well.

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 03:55

Well, I don't know about that, to be honest. Maybe the size can be manually adjusted like those plug-suit from Evangelion? (started out as very baggy but shrunk according to wearer's size)

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 03:57

@ Senpai - That works, thanks

Side note - Who's the worst pilot in the main cast? Canon, please.

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 04:01

Houki, please don't protest about S rank bullshit, Akatsubaki being purposefully overpowered because of this.

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 04:03

But what about her S rank- *Shot*

Honestly, what do rep candidates do? The IS can't be used for war, only entertainment. SO what's their job? Laze around after graduating while doing the occasional test?

demino_hellsin · 2012-02-13, 04:05

they train to take the place of the representative should anything happen to said representative or in case they start sucking. If need be they will be called to arms.

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 04:07

Honestly, I don't know. The only canon example we have so far is Yamada, and even then, she's teaching about I.S. Maybe they can go for another career path?

demino_hellsin · 2012-02-13, 04:10

Yamada was called a "former" cadet representative. So she withdrew even from candidacy. The government probably won't be dogging her for her skills but she'd be on the list of people to call if candidates are needed.

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 04:12

.....The more you think about it, the more their society makes less and less sense. THey devote an entire school for glorified sports equipment and teach students IS related material while giving them the bare minimum of required subjects.

demino_hellsin · 2012-02-13, 04:13

kinda reminds you of Yugioh GX don't it?

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 04:20

Government doesn't need her... because Chifuyu might be still active during Yamada's era

"Uh, nothing because the Absolute Defense uses up all of the ISes energy, resulting in the IS shutting down and leaving the pilot exposed and vulnerable. Unless the pilot can pull something out of her ass so she can get herself and her IS back up and going again!!"

@ Senpai - What kind of material is rubbery and waterproof?

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 07:09

Latex maybe?

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 07:17

Nevermind, I got it: Water repelling scales and the suit is textured like a golfball to allow the person to move with next to no friction. It'd be the perfect suit.....if it didn't kill you every time you used it.

Does a protagonist who dies at the end/near the end of a story count as a decoy protagonist?

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 07:19

Nope, decoy protagonist usually dead within the first quarter or halfway the story. Sometimes they appear in few chapter/issues before replaced.

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 07:25

@ Senpai - I'm stuck in this part now with the re-write: It's mostly the same; Irish tries to kidnap Cecilia. But that's where it diverges. Path 1 has the same effects as the old one: Him kidnapping Cecilia and Ichika rescuing her. Path 2 is different: He gets caught when Laura notices his odd behavior and takes Cecilia hostage before he's knocked out. This results in him getting arrested till he hears Viktor's plan to bomb the sectors over the radio. Cecilia still gets kidnapped, but she's in noticeably more danger.

Any idea which one I should use?

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 07:32

The first idea tricked the reader that Irish is a villain protagonist, while the second one directly cemented his position as unwitting pawn, both are good, but I wonder why but the second idea seems more fun and tense at the same time.

Eratas123 · 2012-02-13, 07:37

@ Senpai - The second one makes Viktor more of a magnificent Bastard. Essentially, he used Irish as bait so they could kidnap Cecilia and leave him. Just to be a dick, he even places a bomb on the police car Irish was taken in. Needless to say, Irish isn't happy. Then again, this makes his attempt to stop the bombs more like to Screw over Viktor than any more qualms.

ZeroXSEED · 2012-02-13, 07:41

What do you mean anymore qualms?
