Wow, that was surprisingly shitty treatment for someone just because of the size of their breasts. And this is coming from someone who thought they were ridiculous to begin with. Letting them go unrestrained in a combat situation where they can get in the way is one thing, but they're totally at leisure here.
Well, all that aside, I'll welcome any developments that put the romance between Iska and Alice on ice. (If there were one way to redeem the series right now, it would be if those two stop being an inevitable romance.)
