| Anime was allround extremely bad compared to the game. Animation and art sucked hard, not to mention they removed sensei from lots of key scenes, his relations ship with aru and mutsuki is basically non existent. 5/10 just cause they included the iori feet scene. |

| Epic, lovely, cute and funny ending. Flawless it may not be, wholesomeness what it throughly carry.  |
| I was so happy to see everyone come to help I wonder if Shiroko's past was revealed in the game at this point too, or it's an anime-original thing that connects to the new parts of the main story that have been releasing for some time now. Really cool. I came to love Hoshino's character so much, can't wait to read this part in the game. At the end it says that The Foreclosure Task Force is now officially recognized. Really enjoyed this one, but ngl, playing the actual game massively pumps up the enjoyment (at least for me), so if I hadn't started playing it when the anime started, it would've been just okay. And yeah, I think the story is told better in the game, and it's better to experience it there (I myself first watched the anime episodes, then read the part of the story that was covered that episode). This anime is mainly for fans to see the characters moving and talking, and an advertisement for the game (it worked). 8/10 Would be really cool to see the other volumes adapted too. My weekly report about my progress in the game or something idk: I had to spark for Swimsuit Izuna :') |

| because of course... even in a series like this... there can't be any sexy ass evil women.... smh... |
  |
| Now.. It is finally end 🥲 Even it is an old story.. I hope they make more story animated.. |
 |
| Please adapt Eden Treaty for Seia's voice. Thank you. |
| See you again sensei in season 2 10/10 |
 |
| This anime started at 8.35 and dropped so hard. As usual with animd adapated from Gacha games They are utter shit |
this episode didnt hit me hard as the game did. one of the reason is the Target for Love song. I really wish they put that in the background, but sadly that didnt happen. I started screaming when Faust, Prefect and PS68 came. That moments were great. Overall, this season felt more like a fan service to the game players, rather than inviting new people (especially the OP). But I still wish they added the Prolouge and explanation about kivotos and the girls... Either way, I still love this. It's my favourite gacha game, so I'm loving this no matter what. Now, I really hope a season 2 gets announced to adapt V2. definitly 😭/10 |
| cute and funny 😭😭😭😭😭😭 |

| Boring plot with disappointing visuals. I get the feeling all those porn doujinshi tell more interesting stories than this. |

| Well, is a gacha game adaptation, so far as that considered it was solid enough I guess. They included scenes from Volume F, I imagine to introduce more drama and questions for Shiroko in anime onlies. I hope if S2 is announced, it adapts Vol3. Vol2 Ch1 is by far the weakest in terms of writing, so it needs Ch2 to at least salvage a bit the viewers, but without some info gained in Vol 3, that chapter won't make sense, and is not like Vol3 has to be mandatory after 2 since everything pre Vol F can be taken in any order outside of Vol 1. Also, because Vol 3 is so many leagues above Vols 1 and 2 that is the only way to redeem the story for anime onlies instead of just sounding as the local crazy fanboy that insists the writing in the game is top notch while something as mid as Vol 2 is on screen. |

@EcchiGodMamster There are other evil sexy ladies and the story is really getting excellent once we reach the Eden Treaty arc.
That 1st season (or Volume 1 in the game) was just showing the cool vibe.
Volume 2 is really the peace before the storm from Volume 3...

| @liedx good, get these dumb robot dudes outta here only sexy women from here on please |
|
| Yeah, the ending is the best part because now its over. still never explained all the halos, biblical references, why girls seem immortal, etc nothing at all was given to the watcher. And without any consequences (not even one bullet wound?) every fight in this dumpster fire had no meaning. 3/10. maybe it was a pleaser for the people who play it, but honestly it was sub mid. if it had even an ounce of world building it would've at least been a 5. |

| @EcchiGodMamster She is the only one you can actually fit in what you are asking without "buts" (except Kokuriko, but that's because we are still in ch1 of Hykkakyou). Actual spoilers: The rest of the villains are either robots, unidentified (suppossedly) humans but males or straight up monsters. |
| Waifus only represent ideals |
| The scene with past Shiroko and Hoshino should not have been there |
| Well overall this was a really good show, the characters carried the hell out of this show imo. Particularly Hoshino but they were all great. Definitely plan to play the mobile game at some point and buy some merch in the future. |
| This anime was a mistake, I love Blue Archive, its my favorite gacha, but if they're going to do a Blue Archive anime at least make it good, I'll not lie to myself and say that I liked this just because I'm a fan of the game, they have not used any music from the game at all, some of the anime original music was unbearable to listen, the animation was mid at best and at some moments it seemed like the staff did now know how to tell the story, specially regarding Sensei's participation. I hope they do not continue with this, I don't wanna see Mika being doing bad in a Treaty of Eden arc. |

| @CorbanEsp Absolutely not. That would be such a slap in the face to the people who actually like Clockwork Flower Pavane. It is my favorite part of Blue Archive. |
| And so that's the end lol. I wonder if we'll get adaptations of other stories too. |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| As a player myself, I can say that this is not the best adaptation. Nevertheless, still hoping for other arcs to be adapted especially Vol. 3 (Eden Treaty), Vol. 4 (Rabbit of Caerbannog) and Vol. F (Where All Miracles Begin). Those are way better than other volumes. |
| been playing since day 1, on JP love the game to bits, probably the most consistenly good gacha games out there but the anime is just barely watchable, i didnt have too much hope since adapting Vol.1 in 12 episodes is crazy (not to mention the original filler episode) but i was still kinda dissapointed, but oh well wycd ill still be watching if a season 2 or 3 came out, but production has to step it up big time |
 |
| The reward for the feet sucking, was worth it, I guess(?) And from Trinity got the artillery. All nice and stuff Hoshino getting safely rescued but, what about the debt? I understood was just good part paid when Hoshino signed, not the whole. |

| @Raratah Vol 2 Ch2 is pretty good and I enjoyed it. That said, the anime has been handled poorly and has so little momentum outside the gacha players that Vol2 Ch1 would kill it entirely and bury any chance of Vol 3 getting adapted. Vol2 Ch2 takes place after Eden Treaty anyway, so it would be better to have Vol 3, which is the better written of the 4 and the one everyone has been thinking of when selling anime onlies the quality of BA story. With Vol3 out of the way they can adapt both chapters from Vol2 and the lore dump from Vol3 will help non-players. |

| Welcome home Hoshino-senpai. Not as good as the gooners hyped it up to be, but still one of the better gacha game adaptations. I still don’t know what the hell story is here, but the girls were cute, some solid action and a nice CGDCT vibe. Clearly made with people who have played the game in mind, but I still had fun. Problem Solver 68 and the others coming to help the Abydos girls was so cool. I’m a sucker for the OP playing during hype fight scenes and they were definitely hype. Aru my beloved.. you looked amazing today. Hoshino flashbacks always manage to make me feel horrible. You can see she took Yume senpai’s whole way of talking, dressing and carrying herself after she died, likely out of guilt? I kinda would wanna see her talk and sct like her old self with the Abydos girls. .. just happy she’s finally free of the past now and moving forward with her kouhai. The last thing Yume would want is for her to continue languishing in pain. Overall still some story holes that I didn’t get, but a fun watch and up there with the better gacha game adaptations. Hoshino’s arc was very satisfying and I’ll miss watching this on a weekly basis. |

| Who is sensei? The black thing mentioned about they come from outside of Kivotos? What is Schale? Why sensei go to that school? Why only sensei can access the Arona tablet? Why Abydos is so important? Why they still want to shutdown the school after they can experiment on Hoshino? Why the student stay on that Abydos? How the school even get water with their condition almost submerged by sand? Why sensei trying to keep their good guy doesn't do crime but invaded on the Kaiser property and even destroyed their properties, it's even worse crime than stealing. Where is Hoshino's senpai? Did she die or got captured? Why Hoshino became happy go lucky after she disappeared? What is the halo above the girls head? Why only girls have halo? Hoshino mentioned about hitting her halo if they meet next time, does this mean destroying the halo will kill them? Really confusing anime with many things unexplained. If they make another season, I hope they explain Schale which I'm more interested in than Abydos. |

| @CorbanEsp So it is really funny that you say that. I have only been playing BA for about a year now. I experienced Vol2 all at once. Ch1 and Ch2 back to back. I was not aware that Vol3 released before Vol2 Ch2. Now everyone's dislike for Vol2 Ch1 makes sense to me. Vol2 is WAY better when you experience both chapters back to back. |

| @LeonLanford Ya welcome to Blue Archive. Half of what you asked barely gets explained in the game itself. The world building is very vague. A good chunk of what you asked is addressed in the prologue, which they failed to adapt in the anime. The other chunk of your questions are still debated in the game community. |

| @LeonLanford Next seasons, depending on the order of adaptation, would focus on Millenium for Vol 2, Trinity, Gehenna and Arius for Vol 3 and SRT and Valkyrie for Vol 4. Abydoss will only be mentioned in Vol 3 due to Hifumi's actions coming after her. I'm answering this so you get the knowledge, but the anime should have been the one to explain the bare minimum and it failed. First paragraph is answered in the prologue, which the studio seemed to deem unnecessary and only showed a still frame in chapter 2, ruining a lot of introductions for anime onlies.
The part about abydoss is Vol F territory.
Sensei's paragraph... well, their version of sensei is like that. Doubt it counts to you, but overall in-game sensei tries to lecture the girls to differentiate good from bad, but will always choose the option that benefit the students. Also, as someone above the law due to his condition as director of Schale, he can pretty much get away with almost anything. Hoshino's past was released this month in JP so can't answer that yet, but theoretically Yume is dead. The halo... a contentious point since it hasn't been fully revealed.
There's no much more about Schale. Is just an organization. Imo the interesting parts are Gematria, the nameless priest and the Chroma. |

| Overall it's not good. It makes me appreciate the FGO adaptation a lot more despite its flaws when something like this comes out. The animation is super mediocre at best and that's not even the worst thing about this series. The anime adaptation Sensei is the very definition of a cardboard protagonist. He adds nothing to the story. You can take Sensei out from most of the combats and everything would still go the same. Though it won't be fair not to mention how weak the story is even in the game compared to later Volumes so I guess the anime did kind of well given what they had to work with? Not to say it's not enjoyable, I actually enjoy watching it a lot before I sleep. The magic simply wears off once I start using my brain. 6/10. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| everything ends happily, and we can see other characters who help, lmao faust is so cutee. well, this is an adaptation of a gacha game so I can't expect much from the adaptation, but at least I enjoyed watching this, seeing the interactions of the characters made me feel good watching this. hopefully we can meet the Abydos members again in the future, hopefully they can adapt the peak story in the game.  |
