Furudo Erika from Umineko No Naku Koro Ni.

I have like, a massive crush on her lol. So much that it makes my actual girlfriend jealous sometimes lol

She's a super obsessive "detective" character, and her whole persona is based around ripping open mysteries and exposing the insides. As an analyst by trade, I can't help but feel endeared to her on that alone.


Also, Umineko is my absolute favorite fictional work of all time. Highly recommend you read the Visual Novel (the Anime sucks super bad)
Just get your girlfriend to cosplay and talk like her, win-win cooperation as the Chinese like to say.

Unfortunately, military games are still a serious blank.
Strict restrictions on the real names of national organizations in the game (actually equivalent to prohibition) may be a great obstacle, and those neurotic parents will certainly scream and declare that "this is propaganda violence".
It's also a genre that's over-saturated with existing titles, and quite hardware demanding.

China's talents would better off develop their skills on other genres first before tackling those.

And there's a go-around with naming restrictions by engaging sci-fi genre. As political correctness is getting ever more acute in the West as well, going sci-fi will be a way forward for everyone.

Science fiction may be a good idea, but I don't like it at all.
It's a pain to see that our own country's army basically doesn't exist in the military game.

This project can only rely on the leadership of the Chinese government, but the serious bureaucratic style and interest collusion make similar projects fail.
For example, the game "Passion Leads Army".The project leader knows nothing about the game. They expect to get games like ARMA, but the production team they find lacks relevant experience, but is very good at boasting and propaganda.
The development of the whole game is to use PLA to facilitate their approval and publicity.With the intervention of the backroom investors, the production team immediately overturned most of their previous publicity, gave up the promise of making a more perfect plot version, and turned it into an online game.

This bad practice can only be compared with today's Blizzard.The game was too bad and completely disappeared after barely maintaining it for a few years.Chinese game developers need to "make money safely", so PLA related military games are a dangerous forbidden zone.

A collab between Arknights and the Shanghai Animation Film Studio happened 6 months ago on the CN server, but it has been brought over to JP, KR, and EN servers recently, bringing with it the Nine Colored Deer as an playable operator into the game. Pretty nolstagic for a lot of folks who watched it in their childhood. It's a login reward but I don't know how long it's gonna last so uh, better log in now if you want it.


Here's the orignal film.
