Muv-Luv Alternative - Total Eclipse

[Ryllharu]

My issue is that Yuuya complains that the Japanese models are overly sensitive. He's a fine pilot of any model made elsewhere. Yui claims that somehow proves he sucks, but that doesn't directly counter that the Japanese models are bad. Just because half-trained Japanese girls can pilot overly sensitive TSFs doesn't make the hardware superior, it can just as easily mean that their pilots waste extra time learning to use overly complex control systems for (obviously) little gain. Why does the Japanese model not have sensitivity adjustment? Bad design again.

edit: Yui also makes the claim that older generations fended off the BETA with worse models. Great, newer models don't always mean better. Look at the F-22. Pilots hate it and refuse to fly it. Yui proved that Yuuya isn't the hot shot he thinks he is, but she didn't prove that the Japanese model doesn't suck.
(end edit)

Even with the battle sim, there weren't any laser classes, but all four of them stuck to the ground completely while in combat, so they at least pretended there could have been some.

To me, that just proves that the Japanese military sucks. Four trained pilots had little difficulty fending off the huge numbers of AI BETA, even when one of them had a little hissy fit and became useless. Oh, but we can always claim that real BETA are much harder. Like David said, if they're going to do that, Yui actually is right, and there's no point to this at all.


At least next episode we'll finally get to see Yui put up or shut up. It's just too bad they'll make her win easily, that I'm sure of. I'd rather see Stella fight Yui, since the creators would at least pretend to make it fair. But I bet that Cryska and Inia could kick her ass with no effort.
