Takeru is not an intelligent protagonist. He thinks a lot of things that are blatantly retarded throughout the entire story. I'm pretty sure somewhere in there it's pointed out how blatantly he was played in the entire situation and that his accomplishments were practically accidental.

Then again this happened when Aquila 1 was in his voting group. Think he may have had more votes than Haruka too, I don't remember but that's probably because it pissed me off.

>In Total Eclipse, an otherwise shitty Japanese-American pilot who rejects his Japanese heritage suddenly becomes Mecha Jesus when he comes to terms with it.
Yuuya is established as highly skilled at the start of the story, just a stubborn bastard that won't do his job properly.

Americans get off way better than Soviets and East Germans. The US might be looking out for themselves but the communists are actively backstabbing each other for power even as they lose all their land.
