Glad to see Hikaru has some new bodyguards, but they don’t seem all that more helpful than what he already had in terms of… anything tbh.

His new bodyguards are comical. I found it funny when the leader of ARMS was like, “I can’t have you helping… you’re a civilian.” And I was just like, “And how are all these other misfits any different?”

I hadn’t really thought about it, but if the Mecha-ude can’t normally move without a human it’s extremely unclear how they ever lasted in their own world.

Not that the story makes much sense at all, but the best interpretation I have for this is that Arbitrium (or whatever it’s called) existed naturally on their world but the Mecha-Ude eventually consumed it all and were unable to make more. Humans produce their own Arbitrium in excess so they’re able to give it to Mecha-Ude that derize with them.

But then Alma comes along and breaks all that by being able to make his own Arbitrium somehow.
