Bokurano/Nightmare Fuel: Difference between revisions

It ''is'' a Kitoh manga, after all...

* For entirely arbitrary reasons, a monster is making you and several others take turns to fight and destroy giant robots with your own giant robot. The giant robots act exactly like such devices would behave in real life, causing horrendous collateral damage, causing thousands to die for ''no reason'' each time a battle occurs. Once each fight is done, the pilot of the giant robot dies. No exceptions. So when your turn comes up, you ''will die''. You can't just not fight, nor can you lose a battle, because ''your entire universe'' would be destroyed otherwise. Then it turns out that you're fighting ''other humans from parallel realities'', who have been forced to do the same thing as you, so even if you win, ''their'' universe is ''completely annihilated''. Remember: ''for no reason besides the giggles of the [[Eldritch Abomination]]''. Oh, and your dashing heroes are between the ages of 8 and 14 and are all, more or less, terrified beyond belief. [[It Gets Worse]]. [[Mohiro Kitoh]] is such a kid-friendly mangaka, [[Sarcasm Mode|isn't it]]?

* In the manga, during Anko's turn to fight {{spoiler|one of the enemy's needles manages to pierce the cockpit, and it starts leaking a corrosive liquid above Machi's chair. Anko manages to push her out of the way, [[Taking the Bullet|but she gets her legs burned off with the substance]].}} While we don't get to [[Gory Discretion Shot|see the clear effects of it]], it remains horrifying enough when you consider that {{spoiler|the liquid was strong enough to start melting [[Made of Indestructium|Zearth's armor!]]}}
