* DefrostingIceQueen: Yuki starts off still quite closed off, not unlike how she is at the start of the game, but gradually mellows out and takes to opening up to others. The fact that she and Shu are friends by the start of the story is already quite remarkable compared to how they were when they first met.

-->''The culture shock had taken a little getting used to for many of them, but Tamao may have gotten it worst of all. During her time in the simulated earth, she had never left Sector 5, the 1940s. She never got the chance to pilot a sentinel, or even really see one up-close. The most experience she'd had with the technology of the future was when the deimos attacked Ashitaba, burning everything she'd ever known to the ground. Then later, she woke up inside an unfamiliar pod, very confused. The others had tried to fill her in, but it was information overload.''
