    The translator for Ayako's quit Valk Chron.

    Naturally, there'll be delays as they recruit and test a new translator.

    Can't say I blame that person. While I slammed my expectations for this show down on the ground, I still feel fleeting moments of disappointment whenever I see something unbelievably stupid simple or simply unbelievable in this show.

    There are still good parts though, so I keep watching it for those, while waiting for the romance between the 2 leads to develop. The greater plot for this show should be good, since people seem to love the game (which hopefully is mainly, or at least partly because of the story).

    well.. in the show they just add in all that useless junk that isn't in the game.. not to mention the fights in the anime are just ridiculous.. like, she's standing there, takes shots at the dudes face, then he tells his troops to open fire on her, they all open fire and all hit the dirt at her feet, and she runs to the side for cover.. that whole situation was just ridiculous and looked stupid.. considering the lack of focus on the fights, this isn't really turning out that good.. if anything i'm just watching this because it's a valkyria chronicles based anime. not for any positive reasons :\

    Tell that to the pathetic fool that gave me a neg rep stating I was being too harsh on this show in my previous post. Heck, I even stated that there are good parts (Silveria! who kinda looks like C.C. btw), and that I am watching it for those. Some people are just too stupid, or can't read.

    LOL... sorry... I couldn't help but lol. Yeah... I can understand what you mean.

    Yesterday I finished the Download Content of the game... you should really get it Shinta. Its completely worth getting a PS3 just to play this jewel.

    Anyways... Selvaria rocks...


    As painful as the anime version is for some... I can't help but cringe at the idiot translator who left Ayako. Not because he dropped the show... he is free to dislike it... but because he said he preferred Queen's Blade... yeah right.

    I guess we'll wait for another translator to jump in or another release group to post. The anime wasn't that horrible, since it entertained me a while enough. However, I can see the flaw in bringing a very overpowered tank to the field and letting it decimate a whole Imperial army. There's really very little tactic involved with that kind of power.

    Considering the crap that has come this season i take VC has a blessing from our Lord Jesus Christ ...

    I don't know about the game but the anime is decent with good art, a plot that doesn't bore me and unusual characters

    How do those guys compare to Ayako?

  11. #11
    Good enough to watch.

    Episode nine was a pure Imperial episode, so no Welkin and Alicia. It also shows that there are traitors amongst the grand army (not surprisingly), and some people are trying to get rid of Maximillian. However, those assassins are only trained to take out the grunts because Maximillian himself seems to possess some mystic strength to take them out easily. Not a bad episode, though.

    Episode ten (I think shinta|hikari might love this) is a very heavily Welkin x Alicia. I'm kind of surprised that Welkin noticed small changes in the weather to take cover in the snowstorm, but that's Welkin for ya. It was pretty warming to see Welkin get shy and try to change the subject before Alicia became lovey with him.

    I was very surprised about Alicia making the move on Welkin, and in such a direct manner too. I'm even more surprised Welkin denied such an obvious advance. Is he in love with Faldio or something?

    I'm guessing love is secondary to Welkin at the moment (or at all) due to the war and his strange hobbies. Ramal would be so pissed off if that was the case.

    I find that the episodes with Selvaria are so much better than the episodes without her. Even when she isn't the primary focus. At least the story is finally starting to pick up. Emotionally dead Mamiko Noto character again...I'm a little mixed on. For the love of god, her agent needs to get her in another role like Muto from Moyashimon. She sounds so much hotter that way.

    While episode 9 was great, but the latter half of episode 10 was an absolute chore to watch. I've seen that plot (enemy soldiers trapped in isolated location together, hosilty, then "We're all just human.") far too many times.

    Only other time I've seen it was in Zero no Tsukaima, and I didn't like it that much. Episode eleven was fine, but that princess sure has strange garments to wear to the party, let alone get kidnapped by a few people.

    Selvaria is absolutely awesome. Hot and cold at the same time.

    I don't know about you guys, but I had to laugh a few times as I caught up on the last 3 eps. Particularly at Ramal stealing peeks at Ishara. Maybe male Tsunderes will be fun to watch after all.

    Contrary to Ryll, I mightn't have seen enough of the "enemies soldier meeting" scenarios that the effect wears off, so that was quite good, though still standard.

    The Empire's got to have pretty good intelligence to see that kidnap coming before the Gallian themselves. There's really no point in sending to agents to "pull influence" at a party.

    The fact Maximillian sent Selvaria even though she's neither the shrewd nor negotiating type leaves her combat ability.

    Faldio should just hurry the hell up and make his move on Alicia. What's with the wait? If he wins, he gets his girl. If not, then it puts pressure on Welkin. Might even have a spillover effect on Ramal.

    Nope. Rhinoceros beetles

    Alicia should just do an Oily Mackerel cosplay. That'll turn him on
