Angel Frames

Angel Frames (AKA "Emblem Frames") are spaceships from the anime, manga and dating sim game, Galaxy Angel.

Designed with Lost Technology, all Angel Frames possess more advanced technology than even the latest military starship, with equipment such as Gravity Generators, Shielding, as well as a Chrono Drive System, which allows them to travel at high speeds across the galaxy. It is said that just a single Angel Frame is equivalent to that of an entire fleet. However, it is discovered in the first game that the simulation of a single frame defeating the entire fleet happens to be just Milfeulle Sakuraba's luck. The computer system eventually controlled the fleet to fire at each other, losing to Lucky Star without almost any resistance. Each Angel Frame is controlled by both the pilot's thoughts and emotions with the H.A.L.O. (Human-Brain and Artificial-Brain Linking Organization) System, and if their emotions become unstable, the less efficient the Angel Frame becomes, to the point where it ceases to function altogether. The pilot must possess the ability to synch with the Angel Frame's system in order for the H.A.L.O. system to work, because if not, the ship won't move an inch regardless of the pilot's skills. That is why a vast search was conducted to look for special people who could pilot the Angel Frames, which is how the Angel Troupe was formed. Civilians who were not from the military such as Mint and Vanilla have been chosen due to their ability to synch with the system.

The RA series Angel Frame from Galaxy Angel II has the ability to change into two modes. The first mode is the Flight Mode, which allows faster travel. The second mode is the Battle mode, which slows down the Angel Frame a bit, but it gives them a better advantage during battle.

Famous quotes containing the words angel and/or frames:

    After eight days had passed, it was time to circumcise the child; and he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 2:21.

    In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
    And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
    Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
    Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
    Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
    Of how life should be.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
