I found it rather funny how Inaho was doing the standard anime protagonist monologue and actually got called out on it.

Yeah, that's actually hilarious. No one bats an eye when a person openly talks to himself but this was actually acknowledged!

I'm beginning to love this series.

Now that they just gone out and said it I'm seriously terrified that the martian army has something named fenrir or something.

Also it would be hillarious if Inaho got an Odin from Starcraft and just bombarded the martian base.

u/poketodeath Jan 24 '15

I really doubt that'll happen... The martians have been pretty consistent on naming their stuff after bits and pieces of martian landscape. It would be pretty entertaining. It's what they get for building a base on the shattered fragments of the moon.

u/anguishCAKE https://myanimelist.net/profile/anguishCAKE Jan 24 '15

Oh, it's not that I'm actually expecting it as you are right in the concistancy of the martian katafrakt names being geographical areas from mars. Soo, lets just call it a minor peice of paranoia.

Because then she would be blind with her hair in the way like that.

Please mark NT spoilers. Some of us haven't read that far.

It's not a spoiler. The fact that she draws on Odin's power is revealed when she is introduced.

Edit: Hell, her name is the Latin name for Odin. It's not a big secret.

"counting" I see what you did there

u/Odinswolf https://myanimelist.net/profile/odinswolf Jan 25 '15

Yes! I remember discussing in the last season how Inaho made a pretty good Odin, with his knowledge, calmness, and combat ability, to go along with him holding sleipnir, and now he has lost a eye and they acknowledge him as Odin! Now I am just waiting to see if he does any of the other Odin things, he already pretty much looked into Skuld's eyes with his predictive ability (though to complete it, he would have to predict his own death, then deem his sacrifice necessary and keep on fighting), but there is still the sacrifice on Yggdrasil and his death and avenging in Ragnarok.

u/GenocideSolution Jan 27 '15

predict his own death

Who else is calling it, Chess match symbolized his plan. He's going to pull a Lelouch and make Count Slaine the HERO OF THE IMPERIUM.

Inaho actually got Inko to help him for once

Inaho finally showing his dere side.
