i swear this angel encapsulates everything so loathsome about the rebuilds. all the original angels can be reduced to a two or three-word diminutive, ie ‘screaming blue octahedron’, ‘penis monster’, ‘glowing rope’, ‘computer virus’ etc, which is really something remarkable at least from a conceptual design perspective. meanwhile this asshole is so frantically gratuitous IN FORM AND FUNCTION that it escapes adequate description. i couldn’t even begin to explain this angel if i tried. ‘stilt walking clockwork spider with pinpoint ice powers’ (feat. tiny sachiel head?) what’s worse, it took not even 35 seconds to defeat this thing, with a single roundhouse kick no less. sad!
