Shin Asuka shared a photo.
May 23, 2017

Ok, so I was intending on making a video post for some plastic model review but I figured this should work better. The thing is that this model here is a kitbash based on something I've recently remembered, which is fucking weird.

because i sure as hell never lived near a hangar filled with these giant robots. either ways are there weird shit that you guys remembered out of the blue and am i supposed to start expecting even more of these now?

Shin Asuka yeah they're p popular on youtube. at least if you're looking at japan's trending videos.
Shin Asuka yeah? what kind of memories did you get, if you don't mind me asking?

Mizuki Sena This is the first time I've heard of it, and I come from Japan myself.
Mizuki Sena Must be some niche otaku thing.
Mizuki Sena As for my memories, it's none of your business. Even if I've seen you around some of my classes in uni.

[ he does look familiar but... whatever ]

[ same here for shin, tho wow prickly much? ]

Shin Asuka alright, alright, i'll let off on that.
Shin Asuka well, everyone's got their own taste in terms of hobby.
Shin Asuka i'd ramble about kanpla building but that'd take a lot of time that you probably don't want to waste.

Mizuki Sena At least you're smart enough not to waste my time.
Mizuki Sena But anyways, giant robots? Are you sure that really happened or you're just hallucinating from all that mecha anime you're binge-watching?
Mizuki Sena Because you seem like the kinda person who'd do that.

Shin Asuka hey.
Shin Asuka as much as i watch mecha anime like no tomorrow.
Shin Asuka it's never to the point where i collapsed in the middle of it in over exhaustion.
Shin Asuka either ways the memory just suddenly hit me as i was working on another model.
Shin Asuka it was vivid, as if i was really there being briefed on what they were.

Mizuki Sena But that's not possible, right?
Mizuki Sena What the fuck would you even do with a giant robot?

Shin Asuka well, i can either maintain them as a mechanic.
Shin Asuka design more weapons for them as an engineer
Shin Asuka or gasp, fucking pilot it like a military pilot!

[ get in the fucking robot, shin ]

Mizuki Sena Are you serious.
Mizuki Sena What are you, some kind of hotblooded anime protag?
Mizuki Sena How and why would you even pilot a giant hunk of junk like that?

Shin Asuka yea i am.
Shin Asuka and no i'm not that fucking stupid.
Shin Asuka as for the how, well, that'd require actual training, and as for why?
Shin Asuka dude, WHO wouldn't want to pilot a giant robot.
Shin Asuka chicks dig them.

Mizuki Sena That's simply unrealistic.
Mizuki Sena For one, no self-respecting "chick" would ever want to get near a mecha. What kind of a sick geek fantasy is that?
Mizuki Sena So much for not being that fucking stupid.

Shin Asuka look man, i can dream about anything i want.
Shin Asuka and also i do have something to actually strive for that's not girls.
Shin Asuka but eh, i doubt you'll get it, sena.

Mizuki Sena What did you mean by that?
Mizuki Sena I do get where you're coming from, sort of. I'm not a huge fan of girls but I still have to appeal to them since it's my job.
Mizuki Sena I may not know shit about mecha whatever, but this is only going to spell trouble for you.

Shin Asuka maybe. but if i can just improve the world with my projects, that'd be enough.
Shin Asuka so what, you're a model or something? 'i still have to appeal to them' makes it sound you're not liking your job either.

Mizuki Sena Who said I don't like my job? Don't just assume things right off the bat.
Mizuki Sena I may be a model, but it doesn't mean that I have to like girls? I'm just here to put on clothes that they'd want their boyfriends to wear, I guess.
