Just posting my comments at the Youtube video: I loved the sequence from
4:40 to
5:45 of Aika vs the sniper Delmo. Aika has already taken out five Delmos and is about to gun down two more, but the sniper watches the security monitor and grabs a rifle, thinking she has taken Aika's measure and will have the pleasure of ending her rampage. The first sign that her overconfidence might be misplaced is when she fails to hit Aika with her first shot. Aika was in full view, within range and stationary, but the Delmo flubbed it anyway. It was in the end her only real chance to beat Aika, and she would get no more chances. Once Aika recovers from the ambush, we see her looking around her, immediately taking in the surroundings and formulating a plan. Her keen intelligence is really her greatest weapon against the slower witted Delmos. The Delmo sniper grins wickedly when she sees Aika's shoe peeking from behind the crate. She takes careful aim, still grinning, sure she is about to flush out the intruder. And this is the Delmo sniper's biggest mistake - underestimating Aika! She fires off a round and is flabbergasted to see only an empty shoe. "Where did she go?" she asks, her eyes wide in surprise. "Right behind you!" Aika says, smiling, her gun trained on her would-be assassin. Aika smiles like she is in a big game with the Delmos, racking up points as she outwits or overpowers one after the other. She smiles at the Delmo's humiliation at being defeated. But Aika's grin quickly turns to a look of grim determination and even spite. The Delmo sniper is not just some chess piece to be taken off the board. She is a cold blooded killer whom Aika must take out permanently. The cowardly Delmo tried to kill Aika from long range, but now she will feel Aika's sting at very close, point blank range. Seeing Aika in her stocking feet just highlights the cleverness of this amazing agent!
