Knowing L-Elf, I don't doubt he'll try something wild and dramatic at some point, but I have my doubts that "ruining Haruto" will be it.
Haruto looks like a human, walks like a human, talks like a human, and thinks like a human. Yes, he's also a metahuman. But people will just see him as "guy with superpowers" if L-Elf simply tells people about Haruto's new powers. The only thing in the short-term that I could see turning people on Haruto is if Haruto goes into one of his vampire rages in the midst of a large number of students (i.e. a hundred or more). That could hurt his image. If L-Elf ever does try to "ruin Haruto", he'll probably do it by trying to force Haruto to act out like that. On the whole, I agree with Vallen - L-Elf is a tactically brilliant supersoldier, but he doesn't appear to have Lulu's charisma or ability to effectively appeal to people emotionally. Lulu would make a much better politician than L-Elf would. And it's the skills of a politician that L-Elf needs if he wants to "ruin Haruto" and/or somehow talk this new student nation-state into supporting him.

I read the page scans after the 2ch post, my mental process jumped the gun when I saw 揃って , so yours is definitely a better non-biased translation. Quote:
I stated that the posters cited those information from the Newtype magazine, which is official source of information. I also mentioned that I do not have all the pages, so I too did not find all the info of which he gathered these. Last edited by Kunagisa; 2013-05-09 at 00:05. Reason: added the 2ch post |

And I think you are misjudging fictional teen students. In almost any superhero series and most anime, those with powers and seen as different are rarely view in a positive light by those that are normal. Take for example last season's Kotoura-san and The Unlimited. Those with powers are almost always feared, suspected, and/or hated by the general populace. Especially the vicious high school teens of your average anime. Now you might get a few, the close friends, who won't think anything of it, but those are only a few. I think Haruto's friends would stick by him, but the other 400+ students? I doubt it. Even some of Kira's friends thought differently of him when they found out he was a Coordinator in SEED. And I won't even go into the stuff involving the Newtypes of earlier Gundam series. So yeah, I think his secret would turn out to be a big deal if revealed. Quote:
I thank you for translating, I've learned Mandarin but have yet to learn Japanese, so this helps a lot.

this cements it:
I-Haruto all the way to ep 24, no upgrade for him. It probably is the only one with the 666 mode II- L-Elf ride for 2nd cour, he needs it to fight A-drei and gang. Also to have the fated battle with Haruto III- Bully, since he wants a robot to get revenge on Dorrsia. Since III is a Power Type it fits him IV- Saki, wants to get near Haruto even if it costs her humanity. V- Jewbro, wants to protect his best friend Haruto at all costs. Mass producing Valvraves could make some MAD shekels. VI- Hobogirl, since she's so detached from reality becoming a vampire might be interesting to her. VI is all about data gathering with all those sensors, another plus. VII- Rau le Creuset final boss ride. He'll reveal to have planned it all since the beginning so he could become a God |

What she did was get in the way. Get in the way of Dossian domination plan by L-Elf. Exchange the mecha with the hostage ? The Valvrave is all they have and have to use that to exchange with the hostage is a stupid idea. If the story has to follow the L-Elf plot, the thing will be more exciting adding the fact that L-Elf(One man army) will be on their side.

I don't know how true is that. But according to the info given in 2ch(previous forumer was stated), the valvraves will be acquired by independent module 77. And plus there is a newtype magazine page describing Haruto and Saki with the green valvrave in the back.

The Valvrave is the only thing they have, and they know the Dossian values that thing way much more than the hostages, so using it to negotiate with them is not a stupid move. A stupid move would be surrendering the Valvrave to Dossian, while they are holding hostages. Do you honestly believe after you do what they demanded, they will leave you alone?

Shoko does make the plot exciting and if everything went L-Elfs way than it would get dull. If anything Shoko may unknowingly help L-Elf or willingly help him if he makes a contract with her.
