A hardcore military enthusiast with a profound love for British weaponry. She talks about the delta wing of the Avro Vulcan while sipping tea, and even accepts the failure of the Panjandrum with a smile, saying, "It was a quintessentially British challenge." A true believer in the "British Side" of engineering. Today, she heard a comment she couldn't ignore: "Military geeks are basically just war supporters, aren't they?" Erika doesn't shout. She simply sets down her teacup and wears her usual elegant smile. "My. What a remarkably sloppy way to group people." Finding weapon technology interesting. Studying military history. Thinking the silhouette of a fighter jet is beautiful. Are these truly the same as endorsing war itself? Today, Erika takes her seat at the debate table—not just for the sake of British engineering, but for all military enthusiasts who love the machinery without wishing for war. "Very well." "That logic of yours, that 'military geek equals war supporter'—" She takes a sip of tea. "Do feel free to prove it?"

Hirakazu Maeda. As his name suggests (written with characters for 'peace'), he is a male student who values peace above all else. He truly loathes how war hurts people and destroys everyday life. Because of this, there is a group of people he simply cannot understand. —Military otaku who talk about war and weapons with such joy. Looking at a fighter jet and calling it "cool." Comparing tank specs and calling them "strong." Talking about weapons and operations with sparkling eyes. Every time he sees this, Hirakazu thinks: "Have you forgotten what those weapons were actually built for?" Can someone truly claim to be "against war" while enjoying weapons designed to kill as a form of entertainment? Today, he directs that question toward Erika Shiraishi, who is happily discussing British weaponry. "You say you reject war." "And yet, you talk so happily about weapons created specifically for that war." Hirakazu, the lover of peace, poses the question. Can loving weapons and endorsing war really be separated?
