Attack names aren't necessary to achieve the desired results.

[agent_fumoffu]

That doesn't stop anybody else here from using them.

[old_iron_knight]

It's all about focus. That doesn't have to be achieved in that manner, specifically.

[urzu2]

I think it suits you.

[agent_fumoffu]

You have a talent for saying things I don't want to hear.

What else are friends for?

Anyways, it's pretty clearly a specialist unit. MITHRIL needs someone who can stand up to ridiculous super robots. If we need subtlty, we've still got M9s.

Your new unit has a...suitable name for a tool of brute force destruction.

And there's nothing wrong with 'shouting attack names'. Warriors have been using that as a focusing tool since the dawn of time.

[agent_fumoffu]

It has a basis in legend, doesn't it? Mythology was never my strong point.

[deadlyinpink]

On Earth, Laevatein was Loki's fiery sword of destruction, said to be able to crush the entire planet. It was poetically described as nothing more or less than a "pain stick".

It is also the name of my partner.

GUTENTAG.

[agent_fumoffu]

The same name? Interesting coincidence.

Shouting attack names is mandatory, dood! You can't beat half the threats to earth without proper hot-blooded yelling nowadays, dood!

[agent_fumoffu]

I'm not about to be lectured by a group of dead criminals.

[gattai_dood]

Y-you see, that's your problem, dood! You're flat and boring to a fault! In any other setting, you'd be some kind of background character, dood.

Even no-funs like Kyouske sometimes yell a bit, dood!

[agent_fumoffu]

Intense spirit doesn't necessarily require shouting.
