34 liberation maiden - a look at tech and kamui attacks in the gallery

Dear Readers,

Not much more to cover in the gallery now. 2 entries for technology and 4 entries for Kamui's attacks. The remaining 2 then are cut scenes. I'll cover them all here.

[23] Tech 1: The Liberator, "Kamui" - Features a design of Kamui holding its sword. Detailed is how the technology is purely based on natural mechanical engineering, using Earth's electromagnetic field to power itself. All that stuff about natural purification is built into its capabilities, making it a pretty cool robot.

[24] Tech 2: Parliamentary Battleship Nagata - A massive airship that houses a full parliamentary campus with buildings, monuments and even a landscaped garden planted by Shoko to give it a softer edge. She takes care of that huge garden by herself? It's mind boggling and pretty cool in concept. It's where Kira and the team give Shoko support while she's out battling as well.

[25] Kamui Attack 1: Deflector Nodes - Image shows Kamui's wing while Shoko pilots it. It has these floaty things and big green glowy line in the centre as focus. I'm guessing it's green because it's spiritual natural energy from nature and the Guardian Spirits and stuff. Nice explanation on how it's shielding but also ammunition at the same time and it just needs to recharge.

[26] Kamui Attack 2: Blade - Image shows Kamui from the front wielding the green blade thingy. Very descriptive about how this is like a bomb that builds up and can be unleashed. Also serves as a kind of desperation attack when Shoko is in danger like when you have to swipe the screen really quickly and everything's all red. It's cool how it says it's like it's made up of Japan's spirit and Shoko's desire to free her people and not something built into design. That's some cool anime writing right there.

[27] Kamui Attack 3: Sacrifice Drive - Image shows Kamui completely green and glowing. This is the attack that makes me nervous about the touch screen, though my fears are largely unfounded! I have to admit that to be fair. Description says it's a last-resort move. It's pretty much a kamikaze attack, though it doesn't use the word kamikaze here in the description. It's a nice dramatic moment and finish to the level when a boss is ready to be tucked away for good.

[28] Kamui Attack 4: Laser Attack - Image is a really cool scene of Kamui being worked on in some kind of factory. The lighting looks awesome. The scale of human to robot looks a bit grander than in the final game but that could be just me needing to check again. The description is all about the laser weapon and how it's a faster weapon. Like Shoko, I used the missiles most of the time but it is very handy for the stage 2 boss with all the rocks flying around.

That's it! Exhibits [29] and [30] are the opening and ending anime cutscenes, ready to watch at any time for fun. Glad to have access to them and it's a lot of fun to explore the art and lore for this game. That's it for now! I'm going on to a new game soon. Thanks for reading!
