Michael Jordan is a pretty flat MC so far though.

4) Eh, it wouldn't help that much. Volcanos might be quite hot but if we're just talking about the released heat, well, there's quite a lot of air between Atlas and the ground, not to mention a giant chunk of rock and a barrier fence.

So the actual amount of heat Atlas receives from the volcano would be quite small, nowhere useful to make the city any less "unbearably cold". Which for Atlesians most likely isn't, considering Weiss flied around in her Beacon Saga outfit and didn't even shiver. 1. They certainly built a lovely futuristic New York, at least, and the design for the nanobot clouds is ridiculously pretty. The setup with the hologram presence thing was good at preparing us.

2. I'm bad with names. At least I got close.

Like, when watching Durarara for the first time, it took me a little while to learn Kadota's name. First I was calling him "Hat guy" because he always wears a hat, then I was calling him "Dota-chin" because that's the nickname that a couple characters call him, and then I memorized his actual anme.

4. Fair enough.
