Pumpkin Scissors/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Complete Monster: Section I is willing to sacrifice the civilian populace, up to and including the aristocracy, to avoid any pesky internal investigations.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: "Aoki Flamme." That is all.
  • Crowning Moment of Funny: "I'll take... this!" and the reactions to it.
    • "It's your lucky day, sir! I've found an extra large!" Cue the urine collector breaking.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Take your pick between emotionless soldiers who can stop tanks with a gun alone, or soldiers with flamethrowers who burn along with their victims.
    • Randel's dream/nightmares -- though more so in the manga.
  • Iron Woobie: Randel Oland. Not only is he remarkably reserved about all of his trauma, he's a Made of Iron Woobie as well.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Marquis Hoost and Lionel Taylor, Alice's fiance, both show signs.
  • Squick: For a show about war, Pumpkin Scissors has very few graphic deaths. That is, until episode 14. Where they show a cornered man getting hit with a flame thrower with disturbing attention to detail.
