[@galaxycamerata]

@@antonyalceu4547 I love the implication that the H-1 AI was so enamored with the movie The Hustler that it made a gimmick build AC that ended up being statistically optimized to fuck up anyone who fought it. The original Nineball AC even has a folding grenade launcher on its left shoulder, and by fucking GOD is that pool cue gonna break you if it connects.

No matter where I go, the past will always come back to haunt me. Nineball... after our last battle I hoped to never see you again. You were brutal, vicious but most especially unforgiving in our battle. I barely survived our encounter. As I fight you here, I have come to realize we will always cross blades with one another. no matter the time and dimension we are in, we will always find each other. You are truly the past I can never let go of and it would continue this way until the day I die.

They probably should have tuned the Nineball Seraph's guns and cannons up to a comparable potency and responsiveness as the High Eunuchs' mobile fortress that was in Code Geass route's second (or third?) mission. That would have encouraged everyone to keep moving during the battle (an understatement).
