Strike Witch, you sound like you are defending this project like it was your own child...

Anyway I'm not against adding/revealing the human aspect of the Spartans, but I think this is perhaps a bit too drastic in comparison to what I'm being accustomed to as a regular Halo fan.
Oh good god.

It's a not a fucking scene from the goddamn series, it's a poster about the whole thing.

Most likely, it's the character remembering something from childhood involving friendship and a teddy pendant and stuff. I can pretty much guarantee there will be no Spartans defending an endless field of flowers with two girls standing around.

Unless Gainax was involved.

Kid A, Amnesiac, and In Rainbows are all fucking fantastic albums. His solo album sucked ass, and Hail To The Thief was okay sometimes.

Are there going to be any Elites in the anime? They seem better fit for an anime than Brutes.

Also, just how nerdy am I for seeing some inaccuracies in the size and design of the characters?

There are definately Elites in the CGI episodes, and I think one of the clips is earlier in the series so maybe then.

In the preview I saw on Xbox Live there was an Elite about to duel the Chief with an energy sword.

The non-canon parody one sounds good. Spartan 1337. Classic.

Actually, if you said Chiefu-dono, it would be more appropriate. Dono tends to mean feudal-style lord.
