You’d be amazed at how few military shows I watch. Hell, just ex out all mecha and you’re down to like… twenty in existence? And of those, at least a good chunk are fantasy which use archaic military terms anyway.

Chuu-i, every other damn anime in existence says that. It’s like the most available military rank in anime or something.

That said, next ep, GONZO animation. It actually looks great.

Huh. Hadn’t realized that ‘chuui’ was Lt. Oh well, learn some new Japanese military rank that I’ll never hear again every day.

Oohoo, next episode is Shiho with a bopgun. All this time, I was wondering how she can participate in missions where offensive attacks are needed. Apparently she will make up for it.

Untouchable Empress > Queen of Catastrophe imo.
As for the other points, yes, it’s the dolphin’s rank, and it came from him instead of the Babel precogs because he’s a level 7.
Spoiler for manga (although who knows if we’ll ever see it).
[spoiler]Babel precogs have their own version where they literally gauge (as in there’s an actual gauge) whether the Children will become angels or devils.[/spoiler]

IIRC, “Chuu-i” is his rank (Liutenant, I think).

Loved the episode.

Spoiler: Yoite and Miharu make out like insecure teens at Mardi Gras drunk off half a bottle of Woodchuck.

Oh you would like that wouldn’t you *rage*
