Read the LN
>>
>>133490384
>>cut half of the dialogue and exposition
They should've. Heavy Object has this annoying tendency to repeat itself over and over in the dialogue in a very unnatural way. Characters just love starting their phrases with "in a battle with objects", "but in this object-filled world" etc etc. It gets annoying in the anime especially, kind of tolerable in text-form.

>>give annoying VAs to characters who will spend most of their time screaming during the whole series

That's how Kamachi writes, everyone's screaming half the time. Just something that's a lot more annoying in anime than in text, again.

JC Staff IS making it a bit too bland with the poor animation, bad sound quality, bad art quality, and shoehorned fanservice, though.

Sure removing the repeat lines is more than fine but I'm talking about all the story and mecha details they just remove.

The bros screaming is great and something I really love in the LN. I'm saying the problem is the shit VAs who actually found a way to make it unappealing. Especially Qwenser's voice what the fuck is this.

I just watched episode 2. Nothing makes any sense.

If there are now weapons that can easily penetrate object armor, why can objects only be fought by other objects? Why is there only a single object guarding the base? Why does it have no support, like drones? Why would anyone agree to these "clean wars" and not do everything possible to get the upper hand? Why are these wars fought anyway? Why would the enemy care about the SOS signal? Why does the protag make a speech about how the princess is so brave for fighting against objects when she is piloting an object herself? Why is the enemy so close and the area so poorly defended that they can just quickly drive a single truck to the SOS point and then stand around without a care in the world? Why is it just a single truck? Why are the enemy soldiers acting like seasoned barbarians when it was just established that that kind of warfare is a thing of the past? How are the characters acting as decoys when the enemy can simply send different units to different locations?
>>
>>133511970
Also: how were they able to reach the princess faster than the object, which had a head start? Why is the enemy dedicating an object to searching for a couple of stragglers, yet doesn't feel like pursuing the much larger force that's evacuating the base?

I'm leaning towards dropping the show.
>>
>>133511970
>If there are now weapons that can easily penetrate object armor, why can objects only be fought by other objects?
Where else would you stick one of those? Leave them in a place that can't move and it'll be destroyed in 2 seconds
>Why is there only a single object guarding the base?
There aren't that many in the world, most wars are fought one-on-one or couple-on-couple
>Why does it have no support, like drones?
It doesn't need it. Drones would be shot down really fast by another Object. There are Objects that use drones for support later on
>Why would anyone agree to these "clean wars" and not do everything possible to get the upper hand?
Because these wars were planned by greedy old men who just wanna have fun seeing shit burn
>Why would the enemy care about the SOS signal?
International treaties, just like in today's wars. The protagonists do note that it was kind of silly to think they'd always be followed
>Why does the protag make a speech about how the princess is so brave for fighting against objects when she is piloting an object herself?
Because he thinks it's still fucking terrifying
>Why is the enemy so close and the area so poorly defended that they can just quickly drive a single truck to the SOS point and then stand around without a care in the world?
Because they have an Object around
>Why are the enemy soldiers acting like seasoned barbarians when it was just established that that kind of warfare is a thing of the past?
People are still shit, wars are supposed to be clean but they still involve people.
>How are the characters acting as decoys when the enemy can simply send different units to different locations?
Not sure what you meant by this one specifically, but Quenser and company are a priority because of the Elite, and the Object's about the only thing that could reach the soldiers who are trying to escape
>>
>>133512096
>Why is the enemy dedicating an object to searching for a couple of stragglers, yet doesn't feel like pursuing the much larger force that's evacuating the base?
The Elite is a much much bigger priority than regular soldiers.
>>
>>133512203
>Where else would you stick one of those? Leave them in a place that can't move and it'll be destroyed in 2 seconds
Have you seriously never heard of tanks, planes, ships and beyond visual range weapons?

>There aren't that many in the world, most wars are fought one-on-one or couple-on-couple
The base is presented as some unimportant backwater place where nothing important happens. And if objects are that rare, then there would be a really high threshold for using one in combat and they would be placed in the most important locations.

>It doesn't need it. Drones would be shot down really fast by another Object.
Drones would be vital for monitoring the movements of the other object, and they wouldn't necessarily be shot down so easily.

>Because these wars were planned by greedy old men who just wanna have fun seeing shit burn
Huh?

>International treaties, just like in today's wars.
There is no treaty requiring anyone to go out and capture enemy soldiers.

>Because he thinks it's still fucking terrifying
Because he isn't piloting an object. This should be really obvious stuff. I figured it out instantaneously.

>Because they have an Object around
So does the other side.

>People are still shit, wars are supposed to be clean but they still involve people.
Who don't actually do any warfighting and just dick around while a couple of pilots do everything, and the whole thing is scarcely any different from a video game. And yet they act like they've been fighting a bloody war for years and have become completely dehumanized monsters. That's not how psychology works.

>Not sure what you meant by this one specifically
The enemy can send some people to capture the pilot and some other people to pursue the rest of the survivors. It's trivial.

>>133512215
There's nothing important about one pilot, they had already captured her, and they could have easily split their forces to pursue both targets.
>>
>>133512512
>Have you seriously never heard of tanks, planes, ships and beyond visual range weapons?
Not as fast as an Object, would be easily shut down

>The base is presented as some unimportant backwater place where nothing important happens. And if objects are that rare, then there would be a really high threshold for using one in combat and they would be placed in the most important locations.
Again, the "clean wars" are a pretext for greedy old men to see shit blow up with Objects. These wars are all just set-up in whatever place they want for a convenient reason.

>Drones would be vital for monitoring the movements of the other object, and they wouldn't necessarily be shot down so easily.
If the Object knows what it's doing, they would. And like I said, some do make use of them, just not these.

>There is no treaty requiring anyone to go out and capture enemy soldiers.
...Yes? The SOS signal was supposed to signal a "stop shooting us" thing not a "rescue us"

>So does the other side.
And having a defended base would do nothing against an Object. The protagonist's base was also pretty much defenseless.

>Who don't actually do any warfighting and just dick around while a couple of pilots do everything, and the whole thing is scarcely any different from a video game. And yet they act like they've been fighting a bloody war for years and have become completely dehumanized monsters. That's not how psychology works.
We don't really know that. Quenser and Heivia are having their first war where shit goes wrong, but these other guys could be doing this kind of shit for years.

>The enemy can send some people to capture the pilot and some other people to pursue the rest of the survivors. It's trivial.
That's what they initially did until they lost the Elite they thought they had captured.

>There's nothing important about one pilot
There is.

So the anime got interesting after the first 3 episode, I remember dropping it during the second one.
>>
>>133484098
So...other than ecchi, is it any good?
>>
>>133512612
>Not as fast as an Object, would be easily shut down
Tanks and aircraft can be destroyed by infantrymen, and an object would likewise be destroyed by smaller vehicles and weapons.

>Again, the "clean wars" are a pretext for greedy old men to see shit blow up with Objects. These wars are all just set-up in whatever place they want for a convenient reason.
That's retarded.

>If the Object knows what it's doing, they would. And like I said, some do make use of them, just not these.
Objects are not magic, they are just technology piloted by humans.

>...Yes? The SOS signal was supposed to signal a "stop shooting us" thing not a "rescue us"
There's no obligation for the enemy to capture her, that doesn't even make any sense. And if treaties are so important, what about the actually real treaty to treat POWs humanely?

>And having a defended base would do nothing against an Object. The protagonist's base was also pretty much defenseless.
Uh, hello? They had an object. Have you even watched the show?

>We don't really know that.
We do because we've fought and studied countless wars.

>Quenser and Heivia are having their first war where shit goes wrong, but these other guys could be doing this kind of shit for years.
Doing it where? The show established that that kind of warfare is a thing of the past.

>That's what they initially did until they lost the Elite they thought they had captured.
Do you really not understand anything about how armies work? Armies are big. They have many people who can be in many places at once and work independently. The US fought World War II in Europe and the Pacific simultaneously. Also, the enemy didn't know they had lost the pilot.

>There is.
Why would there be?

>>133505680
I don't see it.

>>133505680

>That's retarded.
It's the premise. If you don't like it you can drop it like you initially asked.

>There's no obligation for the enemy to capture her, that doesn't even make any sense.
Where the hell are you even getting this from. The international SOS treaty is that as soon as someone raises the white flag you stop shooting them. These guys didn't follow it, went to capture the Elite, and wanted to kill everyone else.

>Uh, hello? They had an object. Have you even watched the show?
When did this become about Objects? I thought you were complaining about how infantry was able to get close, which of course wouldn't happen if the Object was around, but the Object wasn't because it was busy blowing shit up, so the base was defenseless.

>Doing it where? The show established that that kind of warfare is a thing of the past.
The main character thought it was a thing of the past =/= it is a thing of the past

>Do you really not understand anything about how armies work? Armies are big.
Not these ones!

>Why would there be?
Elites are specifically created to pilot Objects (not just any one can go willy-nilly in one). Capturing/killing one is both a financial and moral blow to the other nation.

What you're arguing more here seems to be not believing in the premise, so if you really don't like it you might as well drop it like you initially wanted to. These things make sense in-universe if you buy the universe the author's trying to sell.

>Where the hell are you even getting this from.
SOS is a distress signal, it has nothing to do with surrendering. It made no sense for her to send it seeing as how there was no reason to think that doing so would distract the enemy in any way.

>When did this become about Objects?
That infantry wasn't at the base or going to the base, it was capturing the pilot. They just casually drove a truck from somewhere very close. The two bases must be practically next door neighbors (and yet the object attack came as a complete surprise). It sure is odd that these bases are so close to each other and in a state of war, yet there are no defenses except one old model object.

>The main character thought it was a thing of the past =/= it is a thing of the past
Yes, you're right. The main character, a member of the military stationed at a military base right next to an enemy military base is completely ignorant about how wars are fought, and nobody and nothing around him has clued him in. He just takes things easy without realizing that he's actually in the middle of a conventional war. And the narration and infodumping in the beginning was surely some Fight Club-style unreliable narrator shit. And the base commander was also likewise clueless about the topic.

Stop rationalizing things that plainly make no sense.

>Not these ones!
More than big enough to split troops to do separate tasks.

>Elites are specifically created to pilot Objects (not just any one can go willy-nilly in one). Capturing/killing one is both a financial and moral blow to the other nation.
That's also retarded. And the way she is treated is really at odds with how similar people such as knights, royalty, officers and pilots have been treated in reality, in wars much more intense and personal than this one.

>These things make sense in-universe
But they don't.

>and an object would likewise be destroyed by smaller vehicles and weapons.
Look at the size of the main guns on objects. You're not fitting those on tanks or planes, a ship is too sluggish to land hits, and all of them would blow up in one or two shots because they lack onion armor anyway. You could fit the smaller railguns and lasers, but those only do minor damage even when there are a hundred or more of the damn things firing at once.

The whole plot of the series is about how objects aren't actually as untouchable as they keep saying, but conventional war really is a terrible idea against these things.

Anti-object weapons would be fitted on things other than objects.

Though I wonder what kind of weapons these are supposed to be when even a point blank hit from a nuclear weapon is supposedly not enough.

>>133514093
This is a bullshit excuse. Try again.
>>
>>133512900
>an object would likewise be destroyed by smaller vehicles and weapons.
In the real world, yes. Even if you can't penetrate the armor, there are weak points like the propulsion system or the weapons. In the HO world, an object survived a nuke. What could work are stationary object-like weapons hidden in a mountain fortress for example.

>That's retarded.
I get 1984 vibes from this, but yeah, it is retarded from our viewpoint. I could understand battles for resources (Africa vs. Russia for the oil fields in the near East, USA vs. China over the factories in Japan, and so on). Well perhaps they have solved the energy problem in their world (object reactors for each city) so they don't need these anymore.

>Objects are not magic, they are just technology piloted by humans.
The objects have lasers that can destroy planes and capital ships in visual range, they just need to spot the drones. A good radar should be enough.

>There's no obligation for the enemy to capture her, that doesn't even make any sense.
Perhaps the orders were
1) destroy the object and kill the pilot
2) destroy the object repair facilities of the base
3) destroy as many conventional weapons and soldiers as possible

3) makes sense since the enemy had a disadvantage in these weapons and only scrub soldiers. 2) makes only sense in short terms, if they expected to capture the base, it would be better to not destroy the object-related materials. But then they discovered that the pilot was alive, and the object went to fulfill the main objective.

>The objects have lasers that can destroy planes and capital ships in visual range, they just need to spot the drones. A good radar should be enough.
Anti-radar technology exists. Drones can also fly low and hide behind mountains and such. And then there's satellites.

>>133514238
Yes, it is an excuse. An adaptation has to stand on its own, an adaptation isn't necessarily the same as the source material, and telling someone to just go read the source material is an evasive non-answer like telling someone to Google something. In an adequately written work it also shouldn't happen that every 30 seconds the viewer thinks: "That doesn't make any fucking sense!"

People tried to pull this same shit with Tokyo Ghoul. Everything was robotically answered with "go read the manga."

The anime does stand on its own but it's taking 7 episodes to explain the things we're telling you here.

>>133514365
Or at least you think it explains them. Many people think Rebellion makes perfect sense and explains everything.

And with how much infodumping, narration and redundant infodumping and narration the show has, I expect that if something isn't explained and doesn't seem to make sense then it just plain doesn't make sense.

And why the fuck did I just have to solve about 20 CAPTCHAs before I could post?

I felt like I must have misunderstood something until the end of the episode, because it didn’t make sense.

Frolaytia said the goal of Australia was to manipulate international opinion by killing their own people.

Well sure, if you want to turn international opinion against you, that’s a great way to do it.

But if they’re trying to flip international popular opinion in your favor (presumably to get the multinational force to go the hell away), I can only see killing your own people going one or two ways:

>Kill your own people and blame it on the coalition.
They would really need to trick the coalition into actually committing a atrocity, otherwise the coalition would (rightly) point out that it’s all a lie. But even false flagging doesn't work, because the soldiers killing the villagers were wearing Australian uniforms, and the 0.5th Gen Object that’s gunning for a village is an Australian machine. The cameras won’t help them if they don’t at least disguise their people like the enemy.

>Become such a villain that global public opinion switches to wanting to leave Australia alone so innocents stop dying.
The only problem with that is that real life tells us that this doesn't work. The coalition would just come down on them even harder.

Turns Australia’s plan is to outwit the multinational task force and cause them to lose face. Which would do what, exactly? Even if the 0.5th Gen Object takes out a village, or even the coalition base it will just get swarmed and destroyed by coalition Objects, and Tony Abbot dies too because he's driving it. Australia loses anyway.

What was the point of this?

>Anti-object weapons would be fitted on things other than objects.

You may as well be crushing anything you try and put them on. Object main cannons are easily 20-50m long, obscenely fucking heavy and require an object's engine to function.

>>133515222
The general public doesn't know it's the oceania government killing their people. Only that other big nations are in the country and their people are dying.

>>133512512
>Have you seriously never heard of tanks, planes, ships and beyond visual range weapons?
This wouldn't work. If you notice the shape of the objects are mostly similar, thats because its a mobile power plant which they call the core. Weapon that can penetrate object armor need object size cores.

Don't bother rationalising the weapons tech, they pretty much skipped a few scientific breakthroughs suddenly to create a super weapon out of the blue.

They have electro-static hover-tank tech, laser propulsion, sustainable railguns, plasma guns, laser weaponry, holographic HUDs and a magic reactor capable of outputting the power required for all of the above, and reach critical mass to cause a nuclear explosion.

No, it really couldn't.

>>133514352

If they are "hiding" they aren't doing any surveillance either. There is no such thing as one-way LoS. If you can see the enemy, the enemy can see you. Especially if the enemy is an Object.

It's not retarded at all.
Why would you not opt for a clean war, when your goal is not annihilation and it is possible to have a battle with no more than one person dying?

>It made no sense for her to send it seeing as how there was no reason to think that doing so would distract the enemy in any way
It's not an SOS it's a white flag. You usually don't shoot people who surrender.

>It sure is odd that these bases are so close to each other and in a state of war, yet there are no defenses except one old model object
Bases are mobile.
Why would you bother with defenses when you have an Object?

>The main character, a member of the military
Quenser is not a member of the military.
Heivia is a non-combatant.

>More than big enough to split troops to do separate tasks.
Well, yeah.
You just have more than one Object for these things, no?

>And the way she is treated is really at odds with how similar people such as knights, royalty, officers and pilots
Think about her as a heraldic standard, not a soldier.
It makes more sense that way.
Elites aren't even real people, they're glorified flesh computers.
