Great reaction again! Really appreciate how you pay attention to the story of these shows and ask those questions. An Italian Red Devil is a type of grenade from WW2, also called the SCRM35. It was a fragmentation grenade that was painted red to indicate it was high explosive. It had quite a unique arming mechanism that made it prone to exploding unexpectedly. The interesting thing about the anime is it does focus a lot more on the battle between Being X and Tanya. In the books they never conversed in the bedroom following her transfer request approval. That interference is communicated purely during the last test of the Elenium Arms Type 95 in which she is forced to pray. Also, on the topic of the Computation Orbs, they work very similarly to CPUs in a computer. They take the mana power of the mage and then the inner workings resolve Magical Formulas that manifest in the form of enhancing weapon output / applying shields / deceptive fields / flight etc. What Tanya has with the Type 95 is the equivalent to have a Quad Core processor in a world of single or dual cores and just like a CPU, that increased number of cores translates to many more simultaneous formulas being able to be resolved, at the cost of drawing much more power. Also, yeah "Los Los Los" is a fantastic outro song that just embraces Tanya so well. I've noticed Yuuki Aoi does really great character songs (The outros of "So I'm a Spider So What?" springs to mind, if you've ever seen that). The situation with Adelheid von Schugel and Being X is simply that Being X visited Adelheid in the same way as we saw with Tanya. Except in his case, he would be demonstrating his existence as God to von Schugel and giving him the message that his creation will work. I think with the Type 95, it was always capable of the theoretical numbers von Schugel stated, but it was so unstable, it being able to syncronise its cores was something of a miracle in itself and Being X was granting Tanya that miracle when she prayed. I don't think the Type 95 is what she always uses in combat though. I think she always carries it but it's alongside a regular computation jewel which she uses for the majority of fighting, with the Type 95 only being employed when the situation she needs to deal with is truly dire. In the anime it may not represent this though, and simply use the Type 95 for everything (been a while since I last watched it)

It's a trope that child soldiers exist in fiction because of their developing potential.
