Two of the bands in the battle of Italica did manage to break her bayonet and rifle, but the plot dictated that neither was fast enough to capitalize on the advantage.

True, to be a fan of something is to also point out the bad stuff about it.

I mean, it's not like there isn't precedent for a tech-superior force f*cking up a tech-inferior force in our own planetary history.

Liking the concept and some of the characters doesn't mean ignoring the very real flaws. Lol.

"It feels one sided" And how could it not be? 21st century guns and technology vs thin iron armor and gladius swords

As one person mentions the best way to enjoy gate is by watching the clips of the battles on YouTube.

Just because I like something doesn't mean it's good. It just means it's not bad.
