Fixed. Because Touhou is EVERYWHERE. Haruhi not so much.

According to TV Tropes, Spartans are enhanced beyond humanity. They would be like sub-Youkai, but above Fairy (Cirno and Lily White excluded). Not very powerful, but strong enough to not be rock-bottom like humans.
And it really should be Nitori there instead of Rumia. She makes infinite more sense.

She would take his weapons and armor apart to see how they work.
On the upside, she might add stuff like optic camo and hidden weapons to his suit. The downside, she may forget to mention where they are or how they are activated.

...if I've understood you correctly, then you may be an idiot, Watcher. When Forte said, "I'm not sure about the former", he meant that he couldn't say for certain that "the former" (I.E. HARUHI) is unstoppable; this implies that, as far as he can tell, Touhou IS unstoppable.

I think you mean ODSTs with the whole thermal/night vision thing. Last I checked, all Master Chief has was a stupid flashlight. (Unless he upgraded his armor or something)

Noble Team spartans used night vision and battle for Reach was b4 halo 1. So we can assume flashlight on spartan gear was pretty much retconed.
I'm pretty sure that Spartans would still have flashlight on them.
One thing I never understood is why is it that the ODSTs in Halo ODST get special equipment that Spartans wouldn't get? Spartens are the most elite spec-ops group the UNSC has, so wouldn't they always get the highest quality and most advanced tech whenever the UNSC issues something to them?
While clearly a failed retcon, the flashlight does make more sense than night vision in a way. Think about the things the spartan armor can do that odst armor cannot. The motherfucker can FALL FROM SPACE. Gear like night vision either wouldn't fit or wouldn't seal properly in that helmet of his, whereas a flashlight would be a simple exterior accessory, shielded over for good measure.

...Well damn, that's gotta be my biggest dyslexia moment ever.
There's a good reason for this: John-117 is a freakin hero. He's got some issues, and he'll probably be popping a LOT of pills when he retires, but he's still a hero, meant to save humanity. Doesn't matter that she's not human, Chief's still gonna protect her from the big bad Covenant, or youkai, or even internet trolls xP
I like to think that whatever is attacking them are particularly fucked because Rumia reminded the Chief of Parisa, the girl he saved from drowning on his home planet and whom he promised to marry and keep safe a few weeks before he was conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program and replaced with a flash clone.
Spoilers: He actually would keep his promise of protecting her when they would meet again at the Battle of Mombasa. She kept a photo of herself with John that her dad took at the lake after he rescued her. Just as John was intending to remind Parisa to not bring personal items to a combat zone, he recognized the picture. Parisa, obviously not recognizing John because of his armor, explained the story behind the picture to him. Despite the sudden flood of memories, John couldn't bring himself to reveal who he was, knowing that doing so would be a massive security breach for ONI. Instead he maintained his stoic facade and the two of them began planning a counterattack against the Covenant. If she was later sent to Voi like most of the regiments were instead of ONI Site Alpha, she would have most likely survived the war.
Also, I like to think that she actually had blonde hair and red eyes instead of black hair and blue eyes.
