Aldnoah.Zero

[Ryllharu]

Saazbaum taking revenge on Earth because Martians blew up the Lunar gate while prepping their invasion and killed his fiancé makes no sense at all.

I get that he wanted to take revenge on the royals for his lady dying, but wouldn't that result in a coup on Mars first? It seems like they're skipping a step. After his faction took over on Mars, then they could invade Earth from constantly being whipped up by their leaders to suppress local unrest.

As it stands, Saazbaum's motivations make no fucking sense...and watch his lady friend not be dead. The original Deucalion wasn't in that bad of a shape if they were able to pull out a functional Aldnoah drive, and know how to install it on a battleship.


Other thing that made no fucking sense: How the battleship Deucalion landed at the base. They crashed into snow or ice. They continued over snow or ice after reviving the princess. Then they dock in a miraculously pre-prepared hanger for VTOL battleships that shouldn't exist on appropriate support crawlers that the base would have no use for. A hanger well inland or on the edge of a port that's not usable in winter.

They should have floated into covered water docks.

edit:
And the martians know exactly where this base is anyway! Some secret base/refuge.

edit 2:
Terrans can't go extinct. Martians are also humans! 40 years does not diverge a species. The culture might get wiped out at best.
