Saw screenshots, looks like another filler with no relation to the game or any of the missions. Series dropped.

Not bad, it's more complicated than game for sure.

The best line of the episode:
Jaegar(Snake): Sneaking in is my hobby!

classic line, especially if you know who the Jaegar's voice actor is

Lol the anime is different from the game, don't compare the two if you can help it. They complement each other.

Anyway, this is a nice episode. To build up for the next few episodes that will probably be jetpacked full of action.

People complaining about it not following the game need to give it a rest. Especially if one of your reasons is because a character's hair color is different. Some pretty weak shit right there.

Anyways, I didn't mind this episode compared to last week as it looks like the next episode will actually pick up a little bit.

Next time people bitch moan about the game/anime look at wikia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valkyria_Chronicles

An anime adaptation, based more closely on the manga than the game

Some of the events depicted has diverged a bit from the game.

I don't really care about the deviations (as long as the general plot is the same), but shut up if you have no idea about the game's plot. The difference in her hair color is a major change. It's probably just dyed though, since I can't imagine that they're going to leave out that twist.

Anyway, I loved the episde in any case :3

Seeing Selvaria in an evening dress was the only thing I liked in this episode.

This show is becoming really boring, too many fillers imo and they don't seem to want to animate the battles.

I am not really seeing the filler factor that people are complaining about, and I have played the game like 5 times. I kinda like see it as a expansion on what I already know, but that's just me. They could have made this a short 13 episode series, but I don think I would be happy with that. Oh on a personal note Cordelia with gray hair seriously? should have been blond :)

Wtf nobody is calling BS on this episode? How does TWO of the leading generals in the opposing army just waltz into the castle? Then once the main characters realize that atleast Selvia is there why in God's name don't they report that to the guards? Galvia has the worst intelligence branch I've ever heard of to not know what the hell the generals look like. Before somebody mentions that the Regent let them in, that doesn't work. This is because they had to have peasants(or people who look like peasants) take the princess away which means the Guards are not in on it. Then Maximillain is a class A retard for sending his TOP TWO GENERALS out of THREE to the enemies main headquarters instead of some assistants or something. My god the stupidity in this episode was amazing.

That's what I initially thought during the episode but I don't watch this for its believability or coherency. I guess neither parties wanted to be hostile or show animosity. Also for the random people from far away lands/nearby attracted attention to the two generals but no one notices and the security in the front is virtually non-existent. I guess fake ID, fake wife&husband, fake rich dresses lets you in. I guess they infiltrated their way in from the parameters (5 or 10 km) away from the building thus there is no security inside and also corruption was also present (kidnapping), inside-job and betrayal (thus might be the reason why they didn't get noticed earlier). The intelligence branch is pretty bad..

Nice episode, that was pretty funny to see Selvaria and Jaeger like a couple ^^
Alicia's dress was also super cute, nice bonus :)

Except that, i think they made a big mistake with the princess' hair... or it's really a wig, like someone suggested.

If you have played the game it's better to stay quiet so the rest of us don't have to listen to the constant complaints about something that might or might not be relevant in the anime.

I liked the episode. Enjoyable in my opinion. And usually i'm the one bitching about filler episodes.

Wish i hadn't read soms of the comments above or I would not have been spoiled. But then again maybe they changed somethings. We'll see.

And yeah why is Hans allowed to go to the ball?

Despite the popular opinions the Domestic variety of Pigs are very clean animals and piglets has been used as pets even among noblewomen.
So it would seem an eccentric behavior, but noting unheard of.

This was a nice episode. We had some plot development that makes things exciting for next episode and everybody looked really good all dressed up and staff. Alicia was extra cute and that quite princess manage to make us wonder even though she almost didn't say a word.

The anime is good with a relaxing cute atmosphere and i don't even give a shit if it's completely different from the game. Alone as an anime is enjoyable.

why do i have the strange feeling that faldio will try to steal alicia away if welkin doesn't do smth fast?...it's just me..
ANyway..the pig was so cute..all dressed up..^^ kawaii..all in all an interesting episode,as always.

I didn't play the game,i don't even have money for ps3-.-..expensive shit , but i never liked ppl comparing 2 different things and getting subjective...PPL..anime is anime..game is game..it only says 'based on the game' doesn't mean they have to copy it
As far as i can tell in these 11 episodes..it's a very good anime if you view it objectively

Except for the fact that Alicia was kidnapped, there was a part of the game just like this. So, it really isn't filler. Well, Selvaria and Jaeger weren't there either, and I can't remember if the regent had anything to do with it.
