00 S2 Novel 4 Summary

From kouryakukan, updating as I go:

000 S2 Novel 4 Summary

{some bits of this are more paraphrased than directly translated; I’m only noting parts where I’m skipping sections/heavily abbreviating it}

It covers up until Setsuna and Bushido’s final battle.

The episode with Lyle and Anew has been drastically revised.

Nena’s death scene was made more gory.

{Info about the cover and illustrations, we’ve seen the front cover, back cover is Cheridum, the pinup is of Gadessa, Garazzo and Gadess and the backside of it is Lyle and Anew again}

Since it went on sale after the series ended, there isn’t much in the way of spoilers but there are many new episodes.

Mainly with respect to the emotional component.

P23 Prologue

Lyle and Anew

{through P29, just Lyle and Anew flirting, there’s a kiss scene, idk I’m gonna skim over most of their romance shit because I don’t really like either of them}

P29 Chapter 1

Marie’s turned into Souma again and has a scene with Saji.

Saji fails miserably at trying to get Souma to understand Al’s feelings about keeping her out of battle.

“Are you trying to rob me of my chance to express my anger and my grief!?”

P55

Ribbons and Regene’s discussion.

It’s clear that Wang Liu Mei’s assets have been depleted.

P61

Explains how Marina’s song got on the radio, apparently a soldier heard it, recorded it and sent it to a radio station

P62

A shower scene of Souma was added (but there’s no illustration)

She reflects on Sergei’s death and her hatred of Andrei.

P79

Lyle/Anew scene, she asks him about his family

P81

More Lyle/Anew, Anew’s eyes go gold, apparently it’s not the first time Lyle’s seen this happen and has realized that they always get attacked a few hours after it happens {ohmygod what a fucking idiot}

P86

Illustration of Saji and Setsuna

P91

Chapter 2

P111

Illustration of GN Archer’s battle

P123

Setsuna and Saji out in the 00 when Saji’s looking for Louise.

P127-8

Depiction of Hiling’s feelings.

She demonstrates her belligerent nature, baring her teeth with her eyes open wide. {I hate this kind of not-sentence that Japanese seems so fond of}

P140-8

Louise and Saji’s talk in the GN particles.

P149

Added scene depicting Andrei’s feelings.

“It’s not a joke! I still haven’t even called her by her first name!” {sorry, no context to make that make more sense}

P158

Tieria vs Revive; Revive’s captured by Seravee.

P171

Revive imagines Hiling snidely reporting his capture to Goodman.

In her stubborn mind, Hiling swore that once the world was unified, she’d ask Ribbons to build a useless facility somewhere near the North Pole and have that stuck-up man demoted [to a position there]. {Note: According to kouryakukan at least, Hiling does expressly use the word “man” in reference to Revive; also, lol Hiling}
