Yoshimune said that he wanted a cour for extra,a cour for unlimited, a cour for first half of Alternative and a three movies for the rest
He also said that this is unlikely to happen

It's not strange to see why this is unlikely to happen. One cour and three movies is way too much for Alternative.

It's bad enough to hear Japs butcher English, it's even worse when they do it in German.
Why is that?

I guess it's because there are more things which can lead to possible mistakes...(?) I.e. unlike in English, a genus is assigned to all nouns in German and adjectives describing them change dependent on that (...and some other things). In this case, for example, the adjective and noun don't match (...among other things). This wouldn't have been a problem in English.

Why can't we just get an adaption for Extra, Unlimited and Alternative (especially the latter)?

These spin offs suck ass
Alternative is easily the best VN ever (a true masterpiece) and it has potential to be a great anime (if its not butchered)

Of course Ufotable would need to do it

I got really excited seeing Muv-Luv, thinking it was Extra, but quickly realized that it was not what I was hoping for... granted, I'll most likely watch this one, it can't be THAT bad.

I ignored this when it was first announced since I heard the Total Eclipse anime wasn't very good. But looking more into it, it seems interesting with its setting. I'd like to see the early years of fighting BETA with older technology, and from what I heard this is set around a gradually crumbling defense line. Also apparently communism and rebels.

Though I also heard the novel was disappointing. I'll check it out when it airs, but I am not gonna have my expectations too high.

Huh, that's interesting. I read the light novel translations that were up on Baka-tsuki some time ago and it seemed interesting enough, so I might as well give it a try. Since this is a prequel this should probably be ok for me to watch even though I never managed to finish alternative. (My copy had a bug where it crashed at some point in one of the earlier arcs and I never bothered trying to get a new copy)

I heard it's better than TE and it also has a much better potential setting-wise (actual defense line compared to some random test pilot drama) so I'll watch it.

Of course I also hope this time they also have MUCH MUCH better budget and team. That is the factor which hurts TE anime most.

They should at least try to get the title right. Schwarzesmarken isn't even a fking proper german word for gods sake. They apparently don't seem to care. Just slap some random words together and call it a day.


Did you even read the description? It's their team name, it doesn't have to make grammatical sense. Your complaint is the same as if I started saying that "ThunderCats" isn't an English word and got mad about it.


Obviously, you have no idea about german...

ThunderCats or Thunder Cats is grammatically fine. Schwarzes Marken makes no sense at all.. like Thunderness Cats.

Maybe the author mean Schwarze Marken, that would be ok.. one "s" too much.

I heard they actually addressed the name issue in the novel, some Russian dude with bad German gave them that name. I guess Age realized their mistake.


Creative way to at least try to save face but it ruins any credibility... It's not even a spelling error which could have been overlooked in a rare/complicated word (which can happen while naming stuff even in the army) but complete nonsense. This squadron would be the laughing stock of the army...

But no surprise there. Even a lot of American multimillion dollar productions don't seem to have 50 bucks to hire a professional translator to translate correctly a dozen signs, names or titles...

Will probably watch this show to see more possibly hilarious translation fails.

The only reason the other one was horrible is simply because they focused more on the damn testing of the suits then they did the actual fighting when most people could give 2 shits about how the suits were tested etc

Total Eclipse was written by original creator Yoshimune Kouki and it sucked... well, unless you're implying the original VNs sucked too. I'm not expecting too much from Schwarzesmarken but I hope it is at least decently animated. Let's hope a competent studio is in charge of this.


Yoshimune Kouki is only listed as 原作 (Original Creator) for Schwarzesmarken so I assume he is not involved with the actual writing.
And yes, I'm definitely implying that the original VNs sucked too.


Muv Luv Alt has not been topped period in rating of the VN its got a 9.27 meaning its near perfect the only thing that even comes close is steins gate at 9.02 so either you got a fucked up sense of quality or this is not your cup of tea.

I actually really enjoyed Total Eclipse. I'm excited for this. Maybe it will motivate me to finally finish the Muv Luv Alternative VN which I've been slacking off on forever.

Meh, I would obviously prefer to see the trilogy animated, but better than nothing, since I never found these LN translated, at least I can see what hell happened...
A spin off, of a spin off, great AGE, truly well done. :/

Don't quote me on this, but I think I read something about the writer not wanting an adaption. It's already popular enough as it is, and he doesn't want anyone to butcher his work. And considering how VN adaptions tend to come out, I can't say I blame him. :P

Yeah probably.

Good news is that we get to see original MLA content...

Last I heard, the creator wants an anime for the VN trilogy but he wants it to be high budget TV series+2-3 movies.

You know, Bones would be a good studio to adapt the trilogy. I understand their anime lately have been a little underwhelming (unless I missed something), but they can do well when they're adapting a good source. They could certainly pull in a budget to give this a worthwhile adaption if they wanted to.

Kouki's dream plan (the creator) is basically like this

1 cour for Extra

1 cour for Unlimited

and 2 cours for Alternative, with three movies to end it, each focusing on the last big operations.

Might not be completely accurate, but its close enough to how he'd like to see it. Something really grand and big, suitable to Alternative's scale. It'll never happen though, unless some extraordinary miracle occurred. The chances for an adaptation of the original VNs are already slim, and a plan like this only plummets those chances even further. All we can really hope for right now is adaptations of spin-off material.

Trilogy anime never. Although that's most likely a good thing.


Stiil would like to see someone try though. Sure it would likely be a disaster but, on the other hand if done well...we'd have an all time great.
