I was reborn as a mecha — nothing but a cold metallic shell with no human body inside. I still possess a fierce battle intent, and I secretly guide my pilot through skirmishes to push back monsters that have flooded the world. I expected praise. Instead, a damaged core from my last fight reduced my functions, and I'm relegated to a trashed practice unit for rookie pilots. Ready to fade into a quiet end, I get one last surprise: my new pilot is a volatile teenage girl. She trains recklessly, ignoring my temperament and limits. Every brutal drill forces my wounded core to scream; gun barrels overheat, systems falter, and the boundary between help and harm shrinks. Can a broken war machine and a violent girl learn to survive long enough to save the world?

So the 'hero' is a broken training dummy? Come on, that's insultingly funny. Teenage pilot's violent drills overheat the barrels constantly 😂

Core damage timeline feels convincing and earned. Last battle explains the downgrade clearly. Secret 'battle intent' justifies covert saves and agency.

Smart premise about identity and degraded functionality. Damaged core becomes a narrative handicap and tension driver. Overheating barrels add believable mechanical constraints.
