However, he demonstrates his true abilities saving a girl who got caught up in the destruction of a fight between two military arts students. Despite not wanting to fight he is forced into the military arts department which is used for defense of the city as well as competing in intercity matches for valuable resources.Chrome Shelled Regios is a series of Light Novels written by Shusuke Amagi and illustrated by Miyu, which was published from 2006 to 2013 and compiled into 25 volumes.

Katanas Are Just Better | |
| Chrome Shelled Regios / int_12a22bd8 | comment |
Katanas Are Just Better: Played straight and subverted. Almost every single character used a weapon other than a katana, and they aren't really being shown as inferior to those (few) that do use katanas. However, the protagonist, Layfon Alseif, who has been using a standard sword the entirety of the series, gets a big scene after fusing two different kinds of Infinity Plus One Swords together. Partially justified in that all of his training focused on katana-using, and it was just a personal vow of repentance that kept him from using it the whole time. | |

Bilingual Bonus: Attempted, unfortunately it didn't quite work. It's not in the sense that the writing itself is terrible but the pronunciation is an issue. Fortunately, some of the acting gets slightly better over time. | |

Gratuitous English: Most episodes of the anime have a scene (An Exposition Break entitled "Legend of Regios", which establishes how The End of the World as We Know It came about) entirely in English. The grammar is actually correct... it's just the pronunciation is horrible. | |

Absurdly Powerful Student Council: The Student Council President is effectively in charge of the entire city, including its defense against the Horde of Alien Locusts. An example of just how absurdly powerful he is, is when he makes a phone call, and has his assistant hold the phone up to his head, for no reason other than he can. | |

Thanks for the Mammary: A funny version where the female doesn't punch the guy. Layfon and Naruki have a sparring match where he accidentally falls on top of her. Of course, he touches her boobs. Naruki is not angry about it but she is annoyed that Layfon didn't realize he was feeling her big breasts as if they were flat in the first place! | |

Serious Business | |
| Chrome Shelled Regios / int_6b35bdff | comment |
Serious Business: Conflicts between cities are settled with games of what very strongly resembles capture the flag, which decides whether the opposing cities get to keep the other city's Selenium mines or not. Selenium is the source of power for everything so a city without them is as good as abandoned. It's also only the Academy Cities that have the capture the flag rules, to keep the body count down. It's implied other city types are more unrestrained in fighting. Kei users. Justified since it's their powers that help the Regios fight against the Filth Monster and against each other. They are so important, criminals take advantage of these matters by selling special drugs to Kei users to improve their powers and worse cases they kidnap children of Kei users and sell them to other cities. | |

Ki Manipulation | |
| Chrome Shelled Regios / int_c948fd40 | comment |
Ki Manipulation, like ability of the Regios world called Kei. Without Kei Vein no one can use Kei. Compared to Ki, Kei is more energy like and part of the Military Artist's body as much as the air they inhale or the blood flowing in their veins. Because it's a natural part of a Military Artist's body, the Kei can be restored faster than other energy sources such as Ki, making it more efficient. There are two variations of Kei techniques: External and Internal Kei. Internal Kei used to reinforce the body and enhance the physical abilities. External Kei is released outside and takes form as various energy blasts or other techniques. If the Military Artist sustains serious injury or otherwise in unhealthy condition; that impacts his/her performance with Kei. | |
