Well, there are a lot of Exos and I wont be surprised if they become autonomous.
This two-parter on Jamal is probably the best episode yet. It isn't just about the technological impact of the exoframes anymore but also their effects on people's mindsets. Jamal's story also has a bit of tragedy in it in that, while he does become an actual soldier, it is implied that he might not find a life outside of the battlefield, practically tying his worth on the exo he pilots.

That's a child soldier's mindset unfortunately. There are photos of child soldiers literally sleeping with their rifles. They're usually orphans, and have nowhere else to go. There are no alternatives, so they make due. It's pretty much what most of the kids aside from Jamal did. Jamal himself seems like he wanted to be a soldier, he just didn't think he was good enough to be one until he was shown how.

@@lee-ld7er I was about to say, a tank column similar to this one would not be completely on their own, they should have at least had infantry support. But at the same time tanks aren't really made for urban combat, (as we have learned from the Chechen War) better vehicles for urban combat would most definitely be something like a BTR or BMP as they are much easier to use and maneuver in an urban environment. Armor really does not matter in these types of environments, the roof armor of the turret and hull of a tank is much thinner than the front or sides, the enemy will almost always position on top of a building or at a high enough level to negate the tanks cannon and machineguns whilst also being able to exploit the weakness in their roofs.

i love this show. you get a clear picture on how "cheap disposable infantry enhancement weapons" could drastically change warfare. you see the mechs win and you see them loose. they might be revolutionary in their role, but they are only as good as the people using them. imagine the world relied on knights in armor and horse mounted infantry...then suddenly the average soldier and militia man is equipped with a firearm...all of the sudden war would change. imagine the tank is created,now the trenches of ww1 were no longer needed and artillery is not as useful as it used to be because the enemy is much more mobile. imagine fighter jets and bombers revolutionizing naval warfare and now everything is trumped by helicopters and jets. war constantly changes, and all of the sudden imagine if everyone got a hold of cheap mechs that are almost impervious to infantry rifles. we might actually see the death of infantry combat as mechs take their place (only time infantry would be needed is when cqc room to room combat, and thats only if the exo fram cant fit in that room already). i want to see more. what do these mechs mean for basic transportation? what does civil unrest look like now that both the cops and robbers can get these things? would national borders have to be constantly monitored from orbit with fast acting air assets to even stop anyone from entering a country illegally? do countries that restrict personal firearms try to stem the tide of citizens getting ahold of mechs? can dystopian countries like north korea even be able to keep their populace in or prevent a mechanized revolt? how would media and weeb culture change now that there are mecha? there's so many questions that would be impossible to answer in just a few extra episodes, but i look forward to what this setting holds for us. they just need to make more!

Tanks do not operate in urban environments without constant air-cover and infantry backup exactly BECAUSE they are weak to attacks from above, attack choppers do not fly at knife-fight building level, even armored the exo's could be dealt with GPMG's and HMG's, etc etc. Still, this series a very detailed look at the given hardware.

@@DreadNought0255 i would argue that trying to make an accurate military show is practically impossible. we haven't gotten anywhere close with todays media, and this show did more research then many "military" media did (its not the most realistic,but its not the least realistic). but the way i see it is this. just like in war, variables can greatly change the outcome of any battle. Americans became lax in their tank superiority, that was taken advantage of, and that was what its like if tanks are unsupported and got ambushed from all sides. in episode 5 we see the mechs getting their asses kicked by artilery and tanks because of combined arms warfare, and the fact that it was a bunch of inexperienced disposable kids piloting them. victory goes to the prepared and the humble. there are alot of cases in military history where a force with both advantage in experience and gear was destroyed by their lessers. i imagine the mechs might initially become a new and hot thing for war but soon people will wise up and take them seriously. would the mech still dominate the battlefield? no, and it could never,just like the tank used to dominate the battlefield in ww1-ww2 but that changed when people started to pan to counter them. in the end the mech will get slotted into normal war tactics. now there are some factors im not taking into consideration. its just how bloody cheap these things are and how anyone can get one. whats the point of expensive tanks that easily cost a small army of these mechs when you can swarm the tank with suicide mechs and still have plenty leftover. in real life, when we develop power armor that acts like this mech it will not be anywhere that cheap and would only really be in the hands of the rich and developed nations. so this series can never be "the most realistic m,military show ever". but i am glad they actually thought about the concept instead of just making "super duper giant flying mechs rofl stomp everything" that any schmuck would've done in the current anime industry.

The only problem with this show is how consistently necessary it is to make the enemy bone deep stupid to show how effective the EXOs are. Like, the tanks rolling through an urban area with no infantry support, Helicopters flying below the tops of the buildings. The show is literally demonstrating the reason no one does those things, because you get owned by infantry. Which also everything they're doing is shit regular infantry can already do, just faster and far, far more visibly. Like, dudes, the EXOs would be super useful and advantageous for an infantry unit in every way. They would be a big game changer, for sure. But you don't need to hilariously exaggerate their utility. There's no way they replace armored vehicles of other types. Nice as these things are, with an open sight line and good positioning and tactics tanks and APCs would decimate these buggers. Losing to a bad match up doesn't mean something isn't useful.

And this resistance would be expected given we see these EXOs running around with wacky craft built panzerfausts right from the start. They know the enemy has the capacity to damage their tanks, and roll in infantry support when they first appear as well. So the final fight is just "and then the enemy forgot a bunch of key information about their enemy and didn't use infantry, the one thing they have more of than tanks and helicopters. and thus lost their tanks and helicopters." A tactic being believable doesn't make it reasonable.

They didn't panic and fall back on standard tactics which failed, they weirdly fell back on tactics they would never have learned or used even when panicking. Like refusing to use their Coax when they'd more likely burn their barrels out from firing them too much. Or driving their LAV into the water when a terrified, panicked commander would avoid it because they'd instinctively know they're sitting ducks in the water. Every single battle between them and conventional forces where the EXOs win requires not just that the enemy fuck up, but fuck up in massively. Like we're talking day one tactics 'do not do this shit" kind of fuck ups. And we're meant to think that this kind of shit is why EXOs are rendering conventional forces obsolete. It's like saying this new type of boxing stance is revolutionizing boxing and it's just like a slightly advantageous stance. But all the experts are shown to be just helpless before it because they're massive dumbasses who make beginner mistakes for no apparent reason.

@Magni56 Except, you know, they never fire their coaxially mounted guns even once. I went back and checked, not a single tank fired their coax, and only a couple fired their pintle mounted guns, notably from unstabilized mounts while moving. The LAV ironically never uses their autocannon despite every single EXO on the field being in range and in view of their position. So clearly you need to rewatch that episode. There's even a former tanker in the comments who basically said they'd never do any of that shit even if they were panicking because they'd literally have to forcibly resist their training to make those mistakes. "None of these are fuckups that are particularly severe or surprising." These fuck ups are insanely severe and almost impossible they're so counter to any human survival instinct. The LAV literally drives into the water despite knowing only that the enemy is submerged in the river specifically. They do this to link up with a force that is being swarmed by enemies who they'd avoid if they were panicking, in range of their main gun. With a full field of fire and easy targets the LAV commander refused to fire his main gun, pop smoke to retreat or call in fire support, all of which are things they're trained and expected to do and all of which are easier, safer and smarter than what they did. Instead the dude drove into the water to link up with a force he didn't need to link up with, wasn't ordered to link up with, and which was currently under attack while he was in easy firing range. That's even more of an incomprehensible mistake when you realize pretty much every LAV driver is terrified of the water and will avoid it at all costs. Because a LAV is extremely slow and vulnerable in the water and can easily kill everyone inside if it starts to sink. LAV operators will drive miles just to use a bridge rather than ford even a small river because something being amphibious does not mean it's a good idea to take it into the water. "We're seeing much worse even from highly-trained western armies today with depressing regularity." Name one example of any first world military unit being that stupid, to the point of them literally acting against their years of training and against all their survival instincts to do something so monumentally stupid as to not hose unarmored infantry in the open with machine gun fire. Again, the problem is that the EXOs are show to ONLY be effective when the enemy acts monumentally stupid. Their practical advantages are obvious but they wouldn't in a million years be able to take on tanks and helicopters head on. Which is what they're shown to do and why we're meant to think they're game changing.

Those T 72s were lured out by the EXOs, as you can see they were chasing them at full speed. They were negligent since the first time they fought the EXO child soldiers they nearly obliterated them and also last episode, they were supported by infantry.
I see the pilots of the HIND choppers have graduated from the same school of Stormtroopers and ret*arded military tactics as the US Marines in their tanks,in episode 2.

I was definitely about to pass on this due to subtitles but the comments convinced me. So glad I did. This was way deeper than just fighting and spoke on the real life dynamics of war. MORE!!!!!!!!

Very relevant plot and progression. The chief inhibitor to military might is military arms. A cheap exosuit that levels the playing field and a commander the “rescues” desperate people will have a massive army of loyal and disposable insurgents.

thats why i love this episode so much. one might see a guy protecting the children, but while he seems to value personal choice, he taught these kids to be soldiers and would naturally become their "savior" and they would follow him until death. child soldiers are not romantic (im looking at you gundam), its the most tragic thing in today's warfare.
I never thought that I would ever use the term "mech parkour" in a serious context.

Это очень классно ! Вообще, все круто проработано. Все сцены, звуки и музыка, дизайн техники. Смысл в анимации хорош, пришельцы торгующие экзорамами это что-то с чем то ! Очень актуальный фильм, наводит на интересные мысли. Такое не часто встретишь. Отличная работа. Bandai Namco вы молодцы ! P.S. Thank you Bandai Namco !!!)))

This anime is amazing. It predicted exactly how modern war changed. The ukrnians don't have exo suites but they utilize drones cellphones with old 20th century weapons creating revolutions on the battlefield new strategies and tactics, moping the floor with much more stronger opponent.
