Episode: Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri - 2 - The Two Armies
Info
The JSDF expeditionary force remains camped just outside the Gate on the other side, and decimates the allied forces that attack it, their medieval-level technology no match for modern weaponry and military tactics. This is, however, actually a gambit by Emperor Molt to weaken the kingdoms that are only nominally under his authority and keep them from rebelling. With their armies largely destroyed they are unable to resist his subsequent scorched-earth tactics. The emperor's daughter, Pinya, is ordered to lead her order of knights to investigate the JSDF and learn all she can about them.
Meanwhile, back on Earth, the President of the United States considers sending an American force beyond the Gate as well, lured by the prospect of immense resources in the lands beyond, despite the political implications. Domestic opposition in Japan to the JSDF's operation beyond the Gate is mounting as well, so the President is convinced to bide his time.
Youji is made commander of a reconnaissance unit whose job is to make contact with the locals and establish friendly relations with them. Along the way, they find a dragon burning a village. When they reach it after the dragon leaves, they find a woman at the bottom of a well, apparently the only survivor.

15, female, , adolescentAn adolescent (teenager) is 13 to 19 years old., cleverA clever or smart person is generally understood as having broad knowledge and the sharpness of mind required to put that knowledge to good use, especially when applying rational thought to long-reaching decisions, with the broad knowledge leaning more on the smart side and the sharp mind on the clever side. Unlike a genius, the clever person may be skilled, but only mundanely so, and in contrast to a cunning person, a clever person is not characterized by being sly or apt at surreptitiousness., cyan eyesThis character has cyan color eyes., emotionally stuntedAn emotionally stunted person has a crippled ability to feel or express emotions. That may range from a somewhat decreased ability to express one`s feelings to not having emotions at all. The kuudere archetype draws heavily from this characteristic. This personality trait may be a symptom of a medical condition such as autism or post-traumatic stress disorder. This is not to be confused with a deadpan person, who deliberately suppresses the expression of their emotions., humanModern humans are the only extant members of the subtribe Hominina. Together with chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans, they are part of the family Hominidae. Terrestrial animals, humans are characterized by their erect posture and bipedal locomotion; high manual dexterity and heavy tool use compared to other animals; open-ended and complex language use compared to other animal communications; larger, more complex brains than other animals; and highly advanced and organized societies., kuudereA kuudere may be cold and harsh at first glance, appearing unemotional and practical, but this is just a facade that protects their innermost, tender, delicate feelings. They avoid the tsundere`s combative and occasionally immature demeanor; rather, they are hard to approach because they are `cool`-headed: often cynical, casually blunt and dismissive. Not to be confused with dandere which is someone being quiet for its own sake, usually associated with shyness., robeA robe is a loose-fitting outer garment. Unlike garments described as capes or cloaks, robes usually have sleeves. Robes are looser fitting than jackets and coats., short hairShort hair is hair from (but not including) bald, up to (but not including) shoulder-length hair. This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length.

For ecchi shows, the nurse profession must play a big enough part in the overall setting.
Almost completely exclusive to hentai animations., paramedicA paramedic is a specialist healthcare professional who responds to emergency calls for medical help outside of a hospital. Paramedics mainly work as part of the emergency medical services, most often in ambulances. In war and combat, paramedics are known as medics, combat medics, or field medics.

Normally, kings are men, and their female counterparts are called queens, but in anime there is at least one known female king. Real-life kings of the past usually held absolute power, but as the time went on more and more kings had to be subjected to control from an external body, in the form of constitutional monarchies. In modern real-life kingdoms, it is very common for the king to be restricted to the role of a popular and political leader who no longer has any ruler powers. Kingship is usually inherited, and rules vary from place to place, but the most common is: preference goes to the direct descendants (e.g. sons are privileged in comparison with nephews), normally by the eldest relative in a given line, and in most monarchies a male will displace a female, often even in more preferred lines (e.g. a nephew would displace an older niece and often also an elder daughter, but not a younger son)., moustacheA moustache is facial hair grown on the upper lip., prosthesisA prosthesis (prosthetic) (from Ancient Greek πρόσθεσις, "addition, application, attachment") is a device that replaces a missing body part.
