Round 1 Side A: Match 8

Skeptic vs Wash

@aino-mamoru

Why is his forehead so shiny? Man polished it or something or the event?

Pretty boi hehehe

he’s the worst being i’ve ever laid eyes on.

They radiate Buford and Baljeet energy. And you can now convince me other wise.

I want to know now how Gang Orca and Shishido met. I bet it was "Rivals at First Sight".

Sorry for going feral it'll happen again

I like a headcannon/theory that I'm gonna share. It's simple with not much to it but here we go.

I personally believe that before the Meta Liberation Army commanders, became commanders, that they had different personalities completely, or were much more shy/nervous/not really knowing where they fit in the world, but the MLA or Redestro gave them confidence and they adapated new personalities.

My main example of this is Chitose "Curious" Kizuki

This is younger Kizuki, from what I see she seems alot more nervous and shy (I blame this on the facial features and the blush) then the older and outgoing Curious we saw in the manga/anime-

I presume younger Curious was before she was officially a commander or hell even completely in the MLA. But the older Curious we see is a commander of the MLA.

Also we know from how Rikiya talked to her, that she originally wasn't good at capturing emotion. But she later tells Toga she "threw away all restraint long ago". This made me think that Curious changed because of Rikiya, and developed a bit of a worse personality. To me her discussion and how far she went with Toga made me think she'll do anything to get what she wants/needs, and this doesn't make me think of younger Curious at all.

Another idea I had for this that I don't have much evidence for is Tomoyasu "Skeptic" Chikazoku. We know that Tomoyasu has an intense fear of failure, and has only failed once it his life according to him (as far as I know thanks to a post, his failure was a failed IT security system for Feel Good Inc.)

I believe that before joining the MLA and/or becoming a commander, Skeptic didn't really have confidence with himself at all. I've seen some people say his upbringing must have been not to well for him to see everything as a possible failure/react so badly to failure. He's even gone close to crazy to prove he didn't fail:

This makes me feel that perhaps Rikiya saw Tomoyasu's success and wanted him in the MLA. And I believe Skeptic took it quickly as a chance to not fail again, since Rikiya praised his success and didn't criticize his failure. Hence his personality coming through as the person he is now, determined not to fail again whereas old Tomoyasu may have just accepted he was failure. This may also be part of while his personality changed, a part of his old self (his fear of failure) stayed with him.

In conclusion: This isn't a really deep headcannon/theory, but I do believe Rikiya made the members of the MLA into brand new people then what they may have been before.

I just woke up, and I thank you.

Okay here you go @heyimsimpie
