The machine's sharp angles and the overpowered close-combat battle blade it wields perfectly suit Narita Shiroto's fondness for excessively sharp weapons, and at the same time——

Translation: "The sharply defined frame paired with an excessively reinforced close-combat battle blade exactly matches Shiroto Narita's yearning for overly sharp objects, and at the same time——". Need natural English. "Sharply defined frame" maybe "angular frame". Let's do: "The angular frame paired with an excessively reinforced close-combat battle blade perfectly suits Shiroto Narita's craving for overly sharp objects, and at the same time——". Keep dash.

——As a Gundam IP peripheral model, its main impression in the work is the ominous purplish-red paint and the extreme oppression delivered by its unstoppable double blades.

The pilot in the work is controlled and forced to unleash its performance, which also suits Narita Shiroto's liking for things teetering on loss of control.

Translation: "The pilot in the work is controlled, forced to unleash its performance, which also matches Shiroto Narita's fondness for things on the edge of losing control." Natural: "The pilot in the work is controlled, forced to unleash its performance, which also matches Shiroto Narita's fondness for things on the brink of losing control."

Of course, Aomo doesn't think Narita knows much about the Gundam IP; she probably picked that boxed model set because Bourbon stood in for the staff's on‑demand recommendation.

Of course, Aomo doesn't think Narita understands the Gundam IP much; she likely chose that boxed model set because Bourbon substituted for the staff's on‑demand recommendation.

Although topic trends on Umastagram can be freely fabricated, the claim that Miura Bourbon really likes Gundam works is indeed true.

Even during the era when the Electrical Killer BUFF was a constant presence, it didn't stop her from sitting obediently, watching the human tragedies and comedies on the screen that could never understand each other.

Even during the ages when the Electrical Killer BUFF was a constant presence, it didn't stop her from sitting obediently, watching the human tragedies and comedies on the screen that could never understand each other.

Aomo isn't sure if she watches every season without missing any, but at least we can tell she watches quite a bit.

The well‑known Gundam work Gundam Build Fighters is sure to be present.

The well‑known Gundam work Gundam Build Fighters should certainly not be absent.

Indeed, in this work the Dark Matter Angel debuts and leaves a deep impression, but as Aomo warned Narita, this parts set presents a fairly high barrier for beginners.

Translation: "It is precisely in this work that the Dark Matter Angel first appeared, leaving a deep impression, but just as Aomo warned Narita—this set of parts has a somewhat high threshold for newcomers." Natural: "It is precisely in this work that the Dark Matter Angel first appeared, leaving a deep impression, but just as Aomo warned Narita—this set of parts has a somewhat high threshold for newcomers."

Note that the Dark Matter Angel is actually the result of the work's designer twice‑modifying the Angel.

Translation: "Be aware, the Dark Matter Angel is actually the product of the work's designer twice‑modifying the Angel." Natural: "Be aware, the Dark Matter Angel is actually the product of the work's designer twice‑modifying the Angel."

Starting from the Angel, modified into the Amazing Angel, and then further modifying that Amazing Angel as a base yields the Dark Matter Angel.

Translation: "From Angel modified into Astonishing Angel, then using the Astonishing Angel as a base for further modification, the Dark Matter Angel is formed." Natural: "From Angel modified into Astonishing Angel, then using the Astonishing Angel as a base for further modification, the Dark Matter Angel is formed."

In the early days of GBN's launch, everyone was still using basic Gunpla for scans, and the Amazing Angel's Gunpla once surged to the top win‑rate tier, becoming one of the strength symbols for melee‑specialized units.

Translation: "In the early days of GBN's launch, everyone was still using basic Gunpla for scans, and the Astonishing Angel's Gunpla once rose to the top tier of win rates, becoming one of the symbols of strength for melee‑specialized units." Natural: "In the early days of GBN's launch, everyone was still using basic Gunpla for scans, and the Astonishing Angel's Gunpla once rose to the top tier of win rates, becoming one of the symbols of strength for melee‑specialized units."

The reason is simple: in works such as Build Fighters and Build Divers, the performance of these Gundam IP units inherently carries the 'modification' tag, so their scanned‑and‑restored strength is generally higher than that of other works.

Translation: "The reason is simple: in Gunpla IPs like Build Fighters and Build Divers, the units' performance inherently carries the 'modification' tag, so their scanned‑and‑restored strength is generally higher than that of other works." Natural: "The reason is simple: in Gunpla IPs like Build Fighters and Build Divers, the units' performance inherently carries the 'modification' tag, so their scanned‑and‑restored strength is generally higher than that of other works."

It is precisely this type of unit that inspired later players, sparking a trend of modified Gunpla, so that during that period of GBN, new announcements appeared every day.

Translation: "It is precisely these units that inspired later players, sparking a trend of modified Gunpla, to the point that during that period GBN saw new announcements every day."

——The new ban list and added prohibited model parts, etc. —not many players admit defeat.

Translation: "The new blacklist and added banned model components—few players admit defeat." Natural: "The new blacklist and added banned model components—few players admit defeat."

There will always be loopholes, and undiscovered model parts will also exist; this prolonged 'showdown' has not ended to this day, the only progress being that officials have issued their own table of acceptable parts and specifications for the game framework.

Translation: "Loopholes will always exist, and undiscovered model components will also exist; this protracted 'showdown' has not ended to this day, the only progress being that the officials have listed their own table of acceptable parts and specifications for the game framework."

This specification table is meant to convey the idea: you can do research, but stop creating bugs for me.

Translation: "This specification sheet aims to convey an idea: you can do research, but stop creating bugs for me." Natural: "This specification sheet aims to convey an idea: you can do research, but stop creating bugs for me."

After all, GBN is a game that advertises free combat; it doesn't dare to completely block players' modification routes, merely limiting the use of parts and components according to its internal test‑simulation standards, hoping to eliminate most bugs this way.

Translation: "After all, GBN touts free combat as a game, so it doesn't dare completely block the players' modification path; it merely limits the use of parts and components according to its internal testing simulation standards, hoping to eliminate most bugs."

Natural: "But inevitably, that player just logs off after blowing up, then a few days later logs back on as if nothing happened, leaving nothing to ask."

The game parameters show no abnormality, nor any signs of Digimon interference; the test limit of DG cells in the game is planetary scale, so what stimulus did he use to affect that thing to further replace the Deus power effect?

Translation: "The game parameters show no abnormality, nor any trace of Digimon interference; the test limit of DG cells in the game is planetary scale—what did he stimulate to replace the Demon God's power even further?" Natural: "The game parameters show no abnormality, nor any trace of Digimon interference; the test limit of DG cells in the game is planetary scale—what did he stimulate to replace the Demon God's power even further?"

In response, GBN has long maintained an internal observation list of players who have produced bugs that the technical department cannot understand, yet whose offenses do not merit a ban.

Translation: "For this, GBN has long maintained an internal watchlist of players who have produced bugs that the tech department can't understand, yet whose offenses don't merit a ban." Natural: "For this, GBN has long maintained an internal watchlist of players who have produced bugs that the tech department can't understand, yet whose offenses don't merit a ban."

This doesn't mean that GBN's official technical capability is as embarrassing as its creative prototype; it merely indicates that it is ultimately just a lower‑tier game operation (x).

Translation: "This doesn't mean GBN's official technical prowess is as embarrassing as its creative prototype; it only means that, in the end, it's merely a lower‑tier game operator (x)."

Learning to accept the habit of 'occasionally a few bugs appear that we ourselves don't understand the principle of, but ultimately must be fixed' is a required course for most game companies, and GBN is clearly one of them.

Translation: "Learning to tolerate the occasional bug that even we can't fully understand but must eventually fix is a required course for most game companies, and GBN is clearly one of them." Natural: "Learning to tolerate the occasional bug that even we can't fully understand but must eventually fix is a required course for most game companies, and GBN is clearly one of them."

Players who quit after a two‑year hiatus, upon returning become big news, then get banned—​quitting, crashing the server, being banned—​are the heroes among returning players.

Translation: "Players who quit after a two‑year hiatus make big news when they return, only to be banned afterward—quitting, crashing the server, getting banned is the hallmark of returning veterans." Natural: "Players who quit after a two‑year hiatus make big news when they return, only to be banned afterward—quitting, crashing the server, getting banned is the hallmark of returning veterans."

ASW-G-08—w

It's him!

That guy came back on an alt!
