<----In the previous ZettaiBlog

And now---->


Suzuha: *shows up in the DeLorean leaving two trails of fire behind* Mr. Sandman…

Bring me a dream…

Chiaki: Make him the cutest I’ve ever seen…

All Three: Give him two lips like roses and clover, then tell him his lonesome nights are over!

Told you this was a great choice!

Suzuha: That it is! Now we’re in 2015, and sadly it always sounds like this, so bear with it. *drives*

Bare with it? Sure, you start!

Suzuha: Not that! Well, it’s fine… Oh wait, we’re here already.

Good! *steps out and is suddenly attacked by a giant shark* AAAAAAAH!

Chiaki: ZETTAI, NO! *quickly steps up and throws Fujioka at the shark, which then disappears* Oh, wow, that was easy.

What was that? A random encounter? Is this Xenogears and its land sharks?

Suzuha: We aren’t THAT far into the future. That was just a Jaws 19 commercial. Suddenly they started cranking a lot of sequels…

It was a toy! I knew it!

Suzuha: …A toy? Well, we don’t have time for that.

We have a time machine!

Suzuha: Well, besides that. I just want you to show this… *takes Zettai through a hidden door in the wall, with Chiaki following suit* …here.

Whoa! *is met with a large room with a lot of electronic equipments, included a large monitor* Picture how huge Sakura’s ass would look in this!

Chiaki: Isn’t it huge enough already for you, idiot?

Suzuha: Now please put your hand in here… *puts Zettai’s hand on a handprint recognition machine, which accepts Zettai’s oversized hand*

Somehow I feel insulted.

Suzuha: Why?

I dunno…

Suzuha: Well, while you settle that look at the screen! *the screen lights up to show a mysterious figure*

Figure: Greetings. For the time being you can call me… Huh… Clint Eastwood. No, I’m not going to throw down any bridges.

Sounds familiar…

Suzuha: Hush!

Clint Eastwood: If you are listening this message you are either Zettai Ryouiki or someone with his right hand. If you’re the latter then you’re insane. If you’re the former you’re insane too.

Hey!

Clint Eastwood: Now, listen well. In January 9 of 2014 Rod will rise from the Tower of Plot Convenience in Cuenca. Soon her army will follow, so you must stop her. I do not know how to do that, so you might want to investigate the source directly.

This is both helpful and useless.

Clint Eastwood: I’m not done yet! Rod is a fearsome enemy, but Zettai, you can handle her. Go to the Tower of Plot Convenience of 2015 and search for any hint. But watch out! You might face Rod and her two loyal warriors.

Suzuha: Great, more driving.

Clint Eastwood: I also found out their identities. Ace-One is Asuna Yuuki, for her name can be split into As-Una or Ace-One in Spanish. Overalls is Kirino Kousaka, since the Spanish word for Overalls can mean “Cute” as well.

This’d be more impacting if I knew who Ace-One and Overalls are.

Chiaki: I bet our two readers care.

Clint Eastwood: Of course, Zettai, I am you in 2015. I was able to tape this, but I might not be in this world for long… Masochistic men are treated like animals in this world, and not in the sexy horse play way.

Chiaki: Sounds like you all right.

Suzuha: *laughs*

Future Zettai: Finally, Rod’s identity is none other than… *suddenly an enormous explosion wrecks the place, thus preventing Future Zettai from spoiling the big reveal*

What the hell happened? *rises from under the debris* Did the green, yellow and red logs go off all at once?

Chiaki: *blows sand* Wish I knew.

Voice: I finally found you, Zettai!

Huh? *notices a flying woman who lands in front of the party*

Voice: You don’t know me, Zettai?

Of course I do! You are…



Chiaki: So another woman from a mecha series older than you. What a show-off.

Nonsense, I do it for fun! Anyway, why are you here? It’s not far in the future enough for Iczer-3 to happen. That happens when you change plans…

Iczer-2: Rod brought me back with her incredible power and technology!

I suppose you can’t tell me who Rod is?

Iczer-2: No.

You’re all stringier with spoilers than GameFAQs.

Iczer-2: Enough talk! Zettai, prepare yourself!

Well, yeah, I figured you have no sympathy for me either. But that will change after this blog!

Iczer-2: I won’t let you blog me! *charges at Zettai, but is kicked away by Suzuha*

Suzuha: Zettai, quickly blog her! I’ll keep her occupied!

Iczer-2: What are you going to do without a weapon? *draws her lightsaber*

Suzuha: As long I don’t get hit by that thing it’ll be fine, right?

Chiaki: What a shounen line…

Head

Hair
Iczer-2 has long dark pink hair. It’s a really dark shade that looks pretty nice and stands out compared to her clothes or her sister’s hair. Speaking of, while Iczer-1 and later also Iczer-3 have what can only be described as “80s hair” Iczer-2 has a more subdued and normal hairstyle, being basically long flowing straight hair. Okay, it’s really long as it reaches her butt and it’s a bit “wide” so to say, but it’s not 80s hair. She also has two lovely sidebangs that reach her chest and give a hime cut impression, which she could achieve if she actually fixed her bangs a little. But alas, she has that weird “middle triangle without hair” many girls from 20th century anime have. Still pretty good!
Grade: A-

Eyes
Much like her hair Iczer-2’s eyes are dark pink. I like this on eyes even more than on hair so it’s great, and matching eyes and hair are great as well! Her eyes are also a bit narrow but not too much, giving a great TDB impression. She does have eyelashes however, but it’s not too bad, and naturally she never wears glasses. Besides those points she’s very good!
Grade: A

Suzuha: Hah! *trades blows with Iczer-2, somehow*

Iczer-2: I’ll give you’re strong for a human… But not enough! *fires an electric blast at Suzuha, paralyzing her*

Suzuha: Uuh…!

Iczer-2: You’re finished! *readies to slice off Suzuha’s head*

Suzuha: ! *breaks off the lightning and crouches, avoiding the slice*

Iczer-2: What!?

Suzuha: Suzuha Special! *quickly pulls a double summersault kick which hit Iczer-2 in the chin and send her down* And now! *gets Iczer-2 in a Camel Clutch, their asses pressing against each other*

Wow, Suzuha has some sexy moves!

Chiaki: Zettai, don’t get distracted!

Iczer-2: Hurrrts! But I can do this… *warps out of the hold and in front of Suzuha*

Suzuha: Grrrr...!

Body

Build
Iczer-2 has a very sexy body, if hard to gauge with no measurements. As one of the first Tall, Dark and Bishoujo type girls she lives to the stereotype, having a somewhat tall figure with a slender body, her chest being not too noticeable if it wasn’t for her costume design and having a nice narrow waist. Her hips aren’t as wide as I’d like, but her legs aren’t too bad in compensation. I’d like to talk more about her but given her one costume there is so much one can tell. Oh, yeah, she has pointy ears! Sadly they’re a bit long, but borderline tolerable. Guess they wanted to show off her alien nature.
Grade: B+

Butt
Actually this franchise has some fanservice but it’s not focused on it, albeit that doesn’t mean Iczer-2 doesn’t get some shots of her ass here and there. Her tight suit helps. Her butt itself is alright but nothing special, though looking at her overall body it fits.
Grade: C

Clothes
She only has one, pretty much. Her outfit consists of dark blue full-body tights with some white vertical stripes and black with orange bits shoulder pads, bikini armor, gloves and thigh-high boots, similar to those of her sisters. Apparently it’s based on the hero of the old Tokusatsu show Hakaider, while Iczer-1’s is based on the similar Kikaider’s. It’s at least a good costume, even if that’s pretty much it. Well, no, in one official image she wears the same school uniform as main girl Nagisa. It’s a generic sailor uniform where the shirt and long skirt are both dark blue, very old. Still it’s at least SOME variety f nothing else.
Grade: B-

Iczer-2: You’re persistent! *shoots a fast energy ball at Suzuha*

Suzuha: Same here! *jumps and tries to kick Iczer-2, but she dodged it by warping*

Iczer-2: I’m here! *shows up behind Suzuha, who disappears all of sudden*

Suzuha: I’m confident in my speed, even if I can’t use the Shunkan Idou! *kicks Iczer-2 from behind*

Iczer-2: How can you be so strong? *quickly assumes battle stance*

Suzuha: I eat four meals a day! *does the same, but in a silly manner*

Mind

Personality:
Iczer-2 is a robot created by the Cthuwulf race, which basically consists of Space Lesbians. While the race is fairly nice they were being controlled by Big Gold who sounds like a rapper but is actually a jerk. Wait, those things aren’t incompatible. Anyway Big Gold is evil and likes doing evil things like taking over Earth, so while Iczer-1 was there protecting the place it sent Iczer-2 to fight her. Their fight is quite cool and is eventually settled in a giant robot show-off of Iczer Robo vs. Iczer Sigma. Yes, robots pilot robots, Gurren Lagann invented nothing. Also robots in this show need a pilot and a naked woman who provides life energy as fuel, don’t ask, so Iczer-2 has as partner one of the aforementioned Space Lesbians. Naturally she loses and dies. But then there was the Iczer-3 sequel born from a joke, and like all sequels they just had to bring back a memorable villain, so there was Iczer-2 to fight her imouto this time. The fight made Iczer-2 change sides and afterwards she helps her sisters take off Big Gold’s evil child Neos Gold. You can tell they’re related because they have the same last name. At the end she leaves alone to roam space because for some reason she can’t just stay in Earth. As a side note, in SRW L she has an awesome and a bit cute combination attack with her sisters and can pilot Iczer Sigma with no subpilot because she’s that cool. Also there’s a fairly high chance Nei and especially Neifirst from Phantasy Star II were both inspired on her, going by the physical resemblance or the sister rivalry, not to mention Neifirst seems to have a lightsaber sorta weapon, AND the dates fit well! It’s only a theory tho, unlike Super Sonic being the Super Saiyan as that’s official.

It goes without saying Iczer-2 is a typical “rival turned good” character, but done well. There isn’t much to say given there are only 9 episodes between both Iczer-1 and its sequel and she’s in like half of them. She still manages to come as sexy, impressive and awesome during her short screentime however, and I just admire her love for her sisters making her change sides, for she won’t let an Iczer die again. And thus her score.
Grade: B

Libido
For a series infamous for the yuri Iczer-2 is kinda left aside. She might have some feelings for her older sister perhaps, or it might just be token rivalry stuff. Same for Iczer-3, as she did change sides for her. She also teams up with Sepia so they can pilot Iczer Sigma together and that’s one of the reasons Iczer-1 and Nagisa are considered a pair, but Sepia seems to be in just for REVENGE! Iczer-2 only scores half-decently here because she comes as a little bit dommy, but again it might be just rivalry stuff.
Grade: C-

Iczer-2: You seem to be getting tired, but I can still fight! *takes a swing, but Suzuha easily dodges it*

Suzuha: You’re too slow! *grabs Iczer-2 by the arm, quickly spins around and sends her off flying*

Iczer-2: Argh! *lands butt-first on Zettai’s face as is tradition, but quickly teleports back*

Chiaki: Zettai, are you hurt?

No, it was surprisingly soft for a robot. Maybe she has silicone on her ass!

Chiaki: That’s absurd, who would put silicone in a- oh wait, that one sniper girl mocked for her big ass had a robot with silicone breasts. Zettai, you’re an idiot anyway!

Age
Being a robot Iczer-2 is beyond these silly things like age, which is pretty nice. While not loli she looks cute and young so it’s a nice appearance for her to keep. Do note she was built somewhat recently in the first series and only brought up also recently in the sequel, which hurts her a little. Still, go her eternally non-aging goodness!
Grade: B+

Voice
Keiko Toda is one of these classic VAs you never hear around anymore. Except for Anpanman, but no one has seen that outside of Japan. Nevertheless she does a great job for Iczer-2 and her evil awesomeness. As a bonus Iczer-2 uses “Oneesama” to refer to her sister, which helps the yuri vibes!
Grade: B

Total: 70 (B-)

Iczer-2: Let’s finish this! *the orange lines on her bra-armor flash*

Suzuha: Gladly! *the seat part of her spats flashes as well*

Chiaki: Look, Zettai, a giant firefly!

Hopefully Ran Yakumo won’t cancel her!

Iczer-2: HAAAAAAAH! *charges at full power at Suzuha*

Suzuha: YAAAAAAAH! *likewise at Iczer-2, and both girls clash in a giant smoke cloud*

Looks like Oriental Light & Magic animated this fight…

Chiaki: Who won? *smoke disperses to reveal both Iczer-2 and Suzuha still standing, albeit tired*

Iczer-2: Hahah… You’re pretty tough…*holds an arm*

Suzuha: The same for you…*pants*

Iczer-2: Actually, I don’t want to fight for Rod, her views and mine don’t match. As Zettai said, I’m more of a sadist and she is a masochist…

Suzuha: So do we get to leave for Cuenca?

Iczer-2: Yeah, go right ahead, you’ve earned it. I can breathe in space, fly and teleport, it’s not like they’ll catch me any time soon!

Suzuha: I hope they won’t! *both laugh*

Get yourselves a hotel room!

Suzuha: And who’s gonna take you to the Tower?

I’m sure this… driving machine can’t be that hard to use. Where’s the controller?

Suzuha: The controller!? Ah, fine, we’re going! *gets in the DeLorean*

Iczer-2: Well, looks like you have to go. Good luck, Zettai! *warps away*

Let’s go! *gets in the car*

Chiaki: To Cuenca! *gets in the car*

Suzuha: Broooom! *drives off*
