[@Pep_Lxwd]

A total of 36 dokutahs has been said in the first episode. With a run time of 23 minutes and 40 seconds that leaves us with the average of dokutah being said every 39.44 seconds. If you were to drink for every time they said it, you'd die as the needed amount is around 21. You'll have to consume 58.33% more than needed if you were to do this.

Remember that one time the Doctor guided the RI landship through a Catastrophe storm during Vigilo? IIRC, he was using the formulas he developed in his pre-amnesia days which Kalt'sit even recognized. It probably is just his subconscious doing everything for his tactical and mathematical talents.

[@omicron5128]

A lot of details that are very accurate to the game like how operators came down from the building is when you deploy your ground operators, Dobermann has already been placed down and was waiting for the enemies around the corner, hitting only 2 enemies or blocking them like in the game, and Amiya rose up as if she was deployed and attacks from the top of the building. Lastly, Ace and the others were deployed and finished the last standing enemies.

This episode : When you forgot your id and password ...

[@NguyenHuuTrung_]

conversation from another comment thread: (Spoiler alerts ) "So the only person who like Pre-Amensia doctor is Amiya ? " "I don't know about like. How much do you like god? That's basically what everyone that knows pre-amnesia Doctor treats him. On first glance Amiya looks like she cares about the Doctor but it can also follow that she's very protective of us because she sees us as the god that can change Terra and rid it of Oripathy forever if she works for and protects him. Amiya is basically worshipping the Doctor because to her he's a god that can grant her wish. The rest of the crew like Kaltsit, Closure, and W all are aware of the Doctor's godly nature and are aware he's using all of them like a pawn. They're just taking it differently. Closure kinda took it in strides, like whatever, I'm a pawn, so what. Kaltsit took it a bit begrudgingly because she'd like to consider herself to be free, but ultimately realize she's helpless against the Doctor and it's not like he's her enemy or anything. W is pissed off about the Doctor being an all powerful being and wanted to rebel, but he's just too powerful. Imagine it like not accepting fate and being angry at god. That's basically W's relationship with the Doctor. The only one who's genuinely love the doctor, like actual love and not reverence or resignation, is probably Priestess, a fellow human. The human race (like actual human, not Ancients) are probably seen like god in Terra. Even more godly than Nian and her 11 siblings."

Its pretty common in japanese anime, you have female VAs voicing as the male MC protag like luffy, naruto and goku. Im still confused tho, is doktah a male or female or still neutral? In 0:42 ace said "she" (talking about doktah) implying that doktah is woman,but up until the game doktah gender isnt revealed yet, and also at the same time there have been people claiming that doktah is a "he" based on the lore.

[@shihabchowdhury4994]

Doctor's voice here is androgynous because doctor's gender isn't confirmed. And there are female players out there that play Arknights, so it's to make players(both guys & girls) insert themselves in Doctor's role.

It's still unknown, they bring in a female VA because they're easier to have an androgynous voice like Enkidu's VA from FGO for example. So having a female VA to voice Doctor doesnt mean Doctor is confirmed as a girl. Besides this female VA is known to voice other male characters in the past
