Quinn Angstrom
a big of actually griping about muv-luv unlimited
Quinn Angstrom
mostly I'm of the opinion that the parts where it's bad are just part of the rich tapestry of whatever the fuck this game is
Quinn Angstrom
but not always
Quinn Angstrom
so the premise is that Takeru, nothing loser trash vn boy, is stuck in a parallel universe where the earth was attacked by alien bugs and is in a desperate grim war for survival
Quinn Angstrom
and he has to adjust to hanging out with the same girls as before but now they're a military unit and none of them remember him
Quinn Angstrom
so
Quinn Angstrom
early on, there's a scene where they're doing some first aid training
Quinn Angstrom
which includes mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Quinn Angstrom
and Takeru, being a dipshit, is like "oh my GOD the GIRLS are KISSING" and throws a big stupid freakout
Quinn Angstrom
and after the scene the squad leader takes him out in the hallway and is like
Quinn Angstrom
it's first aid, man.
Quinn Angstrom
I wouldn't kiss them but this is not kissing. it's a life-saving technique. I would do that in a second and you should be prepared to do the same without being weird about it.
Quinn Angstrom
cut forward four or five chapters
Quinn Angstrom
Takeru and Survivalist Girl are in the jungle on a survival training mission
Quinn Angstrom
Takeru gets bitten by a snake and gets a bad fever
Quinn Angstrom
and it leads to a We Must Get Naked And Share Body Warmth scene
Quinn Angstrom
which happens, and they're both like, relatively normal about it
Quinn Angstrom
considering
Quinn Angstrom
but then later they reconvene with the rest of the squad
Quinn Angstrom
and when they learn that takeru was poisoned and had to be kept warm the other girls are immediately like
Quinn Angstrom
HOLD UP DID SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING THAT ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT BE FORGIVEN
Quinn Angstrom
it's first aid, man.
Quinn Angstrom
don't try and have it both ways.
Quinn Angstrom
you have flipped their characterization with no justification in order to have girls get comic mad at a boy.
Quinn Angstrom
they would instantly understand the situation. the chance that they would get upset about it should have been zero.
Villain
"Girl gets mad over misunderstanding" is the lowest form of anime humor
