Ace, Scout

Ace has a thin rat tail, so he's likely a Zalak. Scout is explicitly a Sarkaz.

the vanguard operator, (...) Mephisto

These two are unknown, yes, but I'm still in the 'until there's a confirmation, then they're Ancients' camp. After all, the sea people aren't visibly animals.

That really doesn't look like a tail, and he's missing any sort of animal ears or horns, which is inconsistent with literally every other land based animal operator.

Scout is explicitly a Sarkaz.

Just completely overlooked his demon tail, whoops.

But they still feature details alluding to their respective animals in their overall designs. Mephisto's race is gonna be a real surprise if it's ever revealed, cause there's nothing to guess it on from his appearance except for how white he is.

There is one hint with Mephisto- his name and connection to Faust. "Faust" is the name of the play by Goethe, and relates to two characters- the eponymous Faust and the demon Mephistopheles. The race with "Demonic" connotations in Arknights is Sarkaz. In this case though, Faust was/is Sarkaz IIRC. In which case, I would wager Mephisto is either Sarkaz, Human, or something else entirely.

There are a number of operators that can look human and hide their furry features like blue poison.

I would say there aren’t any humans but they can easily turn around and use it for a new plot

They don't "hide" their animal features, they just don't have them to begin with. It's not very common, at least among (living) operators. Blue Poison, Skadi, Cuora, and Specter are some of the very specific few that are indistinguishable from humans based on appearance.

... Is it a coincidence that all four of those have some link or another to the Abyssal Hunters, or at least appear to?

Well played

I understood what she said, and still didn't understand the gesture. Huh.

She's setting that kid up to get in trouble later.

Nice sponsor.

So she shot them instead of running them down.

That works. But now she needs to deal with AquaFresh.

I prefer "Talking Toothpaste".

Makes it pretty understandable how Bismarck had a mental breakdown given that she had to deal with that every second days or so.

Scheiße, she (looks like just) killed the italians.

After all discussion, what kind of car Atlanta would use for pursuit no one seems to have tagged the actually used one!
Looks like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Corvette_(C1).

A most appropriate choice, since the Corvette (car) is named after the corvette (a small warship). And since the name corvette was first used by the French navy, it makes the last panel somewhat ironic.

And holy crap, Atlanta used the German railway cannon (one of the largest bore artillery pieces ever made)?! That could have brought down the whole mountain. She doesn't pull any punches.

It looks like Teste is in pervy-molester mode instead of bat-sh*t Zuiun cultist mode... She isn't wearing green at the moment. Can't say that I blame her though, she makes a good point. ;)

Perhaps not. Looking again at this, it may actually be Teste getting out of the car in the first panel - the last panel does show her with some damage. If that's the case, is this actually the Italians' car at all?

gramps and eresh watching over in the background cute

that looks like arima miyako moveset
