Eighty Six Season 1

Chapter 3 — I Don't Want to Die

Lena continues her conversations with Spearhead, though some of the members have mixed opinions of her. Kureha has a deep resentment, due to the fact that she is jealous at how close Lena seems to be to Shin, as well as her anger at Alba in general due to her parents having been executed. Kaie, meanwhile, has become fascinated with Lena, having learned that not all 86 are good and not all Alba are bad. Meanwhile, Lena works to secure a more accurate map of the battlefield to assist Spearhead. Kaie then asks Lena why cares so much about 86s and Spearhead, and Lena reveals that while she was on the battlefield, her life was saved by an 86 pilot which made her realize that they are all human. However, Kaie warns Lena not to get too attached to them and recommends she transfer out, otherwise her idealism will come back to haunt her. In the next battle, Lena uses her new maps to help Spearhead set up in superior positions. However, despite the battle being a success, Kaie is apparently killed when her Juggernaut gets bogged down in a marsh and destroyed by an enemy unit. Lena apologizes to Spearhead for Kaie's death and blames herself for not spotting the marsh sooner. This causes one of the pilots, Theoto, to go off on a rant against Lena accusing her of merely pretending to care about 86s while she stays safe in luxury behind the frontlines and is ignorant of how they truly feel about their situation, and finally points out how Lena hasn't bothered to learn any of their real names, instead referring to them only by callsign. Upon hearing all this, Lena begins to suffer an emotional breakdown. (Source: Wikipedia)
