Slaine fucking sucks. Why is he crying over the dead princess when he wan the main responsible for her death? Did he honestly think that saving Szalablum would ever make things better?

I was talking about this with a friend (luckily we both agree that Slain sucks) and my main argument was that Slaine was driven by emotion while Inaho was powered by cold hard logic and rationale.

Now thinking about it, I can say that Slaine is plain idiot.

Fuck Slain

or as kids put it these days

Yes, Inaho showed such astounding logic when he shot down the Martian that saved them from an Orbital Knight that had them dead to rights, even though later on he spares Rayet after she tries to murder the Asseylum, who is one of the few good Martians the Terrans could count on.

A great villain?

He'll probably end up blurting out all his secret plans to the good guys.

Slaine kept his mouth shut about Asseylum being alive even under torture. Give him credit where it is due at least if you're jumping on the bandwagon.

Well..I'm assuming he becomes competent. If he remains as he is, he will propably die by tripping and breaking his neck while attempting to get inside his mech.

Yeah that was actually based on logic since I would have also shot down Slaine Rayet is hot.

Slaine shot first. Go watch the episode again. It's pretty darn clear. Slaine sucked so much that he pulled a Greedo and missed the point-blank shot.
 
So the Schrodinger Princess is still alive eh? Look at all dat Slaine media. Should have call this show Aldnoah Slaine - Let Justice be done, through Slaine.


Slaine Slaine Slaine, oh god, I'm drowning in Slaine.

I did watch the episode. They shot at one another simultaneously. After Inaho gave Slaine the impression he was using the princess.
 
There is no way Slaine wins in the end, Inaho probably won't either. I'd prefer it if nobody wins in the end. That's the most appropriate for the tone of this show. War ends everybody is a loser, worse than ever going back to their ruined homes. sodeep
 
The only thing that makes me honestly think Inaho might come back are those silly nicknames they gave each other. As it is, it's pretty lame that they came up with them in one episode and only used them in one other episode, during which they ensured they would effectively never be used again(or will they?).

Anyway, #TeamSlaine.

Inaho as a character in a vacuum is honestly not that bad, but his presence in S1 was essentially a cancer that ensured that the majority of the remaining cast would have no meaningful achievements or development. My condolences to people who wanted him to shoot up the rest of the Martians and call it a day with Asseylum at his hip(though that probably would have been fun in its own way).

As he was, taking him out of the picture might as well have been a prerequisite for the show to do or convey anything meaningful. That's not saying that S2 will actually do any of those things, but it's at least a distinct possibility now!
 
BRE@TH//LESS is POIÑT//LESS without Inaho



Beware of attentions, entourages and mates
You are what you do
Depress your mentions, ain't got to be a bighead
You are what you fool

While the survivor lives just to be a dog. A dog that is to be shot.

I honestly don't get this logic. What does the incapability of other characters have to do with Inaho's personality and line of thinking? The other lot are stupid, that doesn't change the fact that Inaho is his own person and a person who can determine things with plans set up by him. Do you think other characters being better undermines/improves Inaho's character? I agree that many other characters are badly developed especially the circumstances they are in. But those characters should be judged by their own ability only, not how they come off as a result of another character. If anything blame the writers for underpowerering other characters in order to get the most out of Inaho.

Him out of the picture will improve things? Oh, please, spare me. Those characters will not function as a proper survivalists even if they were at the death's door.

If he happen to come back from the land of the dead, I really hope to god that the writers have a sufficient believable rationale behind the occurrence. Otherwise, I'll fume using bleach or something.
 
Slane will rightfully take his place as the true main charicter in the second cour. The whole show is about slane anways. Did inaho get entire eps devoted to his backstory? No. #teamslane

Well I don't mind Slaine taking the main role 's seat if Inaho happen to be dead. It just doesn't change the fact that he sucks. Also, Inaho doesn't need backstory to show his badassery.

You answered your own question. Inaho flat-out could not have the presence he has in the story unless he is hyper-competent and everyone is sub-competent. IMO It would have totally been possible to preserve his personality and talents while having a more balanced Earth faction cast with various useful talents, and/or Martian pilots that caught on to his M.O., but neither happened, and neither happened intentionally to make him look better.

And I'm pretty sure I said that removing Inaho wouldn't magically fix anything. But the way he is framed essentially makes him the biggest obstacle to anything interesting being done with the setting or cast. If they won't produce anyone capable of actually challenging someone that competent, they should have him take a hike. Thankfully, they did!

Maybe it is naive to think that they might do something with the void that Inaho leaves in the Earth faction, but what's wrong with hoping that Aldnoah Zero becomes a better show?

EDIT: I forgot I didn't address the characterization part. But unsurprisingly, this is a direct logical extension of the answer to "why is Inaho so excessively competent and everyone else a moron". I think it is honestly difficult to give other cast members meaningful characterization when the intent is to keep the audience's focus on an analytic protagonist who rarely expresses anything and just Gets Things Done(tm). If you went off tropes, those character traits are something you'd expect to find on a supporting cast member instead.
 
So hearing that SEASON 2 SPOILERS
the Princess and possibly Cruhteo is still alive is really pissing me off. How fucking hard is it to kill a character in a mech show? Like why even fucking bother with the Princess getting shot? God damn it.

How come? We saw the bullet kill the princess. People die if they are killed.

I think Cruhteo is dead and that ownership of the mech passed onto Slaine who has some aldnoah shenanigan going on.

You underestimate aldnoah magic plot armor.
 
I swear to god if she's actually alive and not some doll that Slaine had fashioned for his love / propaganda's sake I might rage quit this show.
 
Okay so, I just watched this whole show due to a recommendation...

Wow, I thought that sucked pretty bad. I kinda wish those 2 morons had shot and killed each other, but at least one of them is dead along with the annoying moe princess. Hopefully Rayet kills that other blonde fool later if they continue this.

You know, I felt like Inaho was great because he didn't have any emotion. I liked how he was sure of his moral compass and had a clear mind. I feel like most main characters today are too angsty and confused, Slaine being a good example. It was... a breath of fresh air, different and not particularly a good thing. I liked the idea of seeing Inaho take on this overwhelming force.

Inaho is definitely not dead though, I feel like the enemy will bring him back as a cyborg that Slaine has to beat. If he does come back as he was before, then awesome...but I doubt it.


Guys!!!! Inaho=Solid Snake and Slaine=Raiden circa Metal gear solid 2!!!
 
I guess I'm kinda late to the party, but I just finished episode 12. Oh my god. OHMYGOD WTF?!

I WANNA LIKE SLAINE BUT I DON'T EVEN...WTF WAS HE THINKING!?

I honestly don't even know how they're gonna move forward with a 2nd season but it'll be interesting to see.

And here I thought the show was gonna brew into some repressed SlaineXInaho romance Kids on the Slope style.

Inaho signed his own death warrant when he shot down Slaine after he saved his ass. That led to Slaine getting horrifically tortured. I would've shot Inaho even if he didn't point a gun at me. He still has the princesses' body so he can match that to Cruhteo's gun and prove that she wasn't killed at the parade.

Win-win.

Inaho that son of a bitch is dead, he can stop the stupid war, and get majour props from the emperor for getting revenge for his daughter. Maybe even get made a real knight looking at the new stuff. Vers has a nice slice of earth they can keep in any peace treaty and he can always find another girlfriend. Slaine stay winning.

Achieving that would require Inaho's level of competence. It's slaine we're talking about. He will just take princess body and cry under shower with her.

lol well the fan art isn't stopping
 
Well I'm kinda late but whatever, I finished this anime last weekend and... WHAT?? I'M LIKE WTF WAS THAT!!!

But at the end I'm going to go with #TeamSlaine
Don't get me wrong Inaho fans, he was an emotionless and competent MC but he's character development and motivations were awfully handled. At least in my opinion Slaine character was more interesting
until the final chapter
.

I wanted to ask because it seems nobody has pointing this out, but when Inaho shot down Slaine in his plane, why didn't he look for him after the crash? You would think that he didn't want the knights of mars discovered that hime-sama was alive, but he leaves Slaine instead of capturing him. Just asking.
