Deadhouse said: And dont get me wrong,i love those as much as any ordinary anime lover but seriosly this anime started as action blood and gore fighting mecha anime and became harem and romance.Da fuq are they doing with anime? :/ lol totally agree, As much as I enjoy the cute tsundere romance moments, The turn out of this anime would probably have been alot better if they just kept it as an undertone with the War and Mecha/gore conflict as the primary focus, since there was potential. But I guess its called Muv Luv for a reason =P prismheart said: I just saw that the OP changes at episode 20! Really? abit late but good news, I do like the OP but its about time to change it~ |

| So... weren't there aliens in this show at one point? Did I accidentally watch a rerun of Infinite Stratos or do the BETA just have a gentleman's agreement not to attack during harem building time? |
| This was actually pretty good. Cui is kinda cute and Cryska's story seems interesting. |
| Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee..... Yuuya and Yui having lunch together , and there we have Yui spacing out... XD so cute... |
| Good episode, yuuya's harem is awsome. Episode 5/5 The only thing that could make this anime better is more mecha action. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| Oh mai gawd , this episode is full of hnnnnggg.... XD Especially at the jealous waifu Cui there... |
| Yui made me LOL hard especially with her Expressions during this episode... Cui is making me want to scream "JUST GO AHEAD AND DO IT WITH YUUYA ALREADY! STOP TEASING!" Love Triangle Development now......the 24th Episode can't come soon enough... |
angelslayerX said: >Do you like carrots? Obvious Kasumi-reference. lol nice catch. Totally forgot about that one. My memory must have leaked into some alternate reality or something... |
| So if the F-22 Raptor (lol) is in here mechanized what about an SU-47 Bekut? Or better yet, a PAK F/A? |
| "Ogon’ po gotovnosti!" |
| It was pretty good. I am honestly waiting for someone to die though, it feels as though the plot hasn't advanced much in the last few episodes. How many episodes are left? |
| I like the harem scenes. I think this is part of some development. First, was Crsyka's feelings for Yuuya, second the bonding between Yuuya and Leon, and also Yui's feelings towards him. I'm not probably sure but this could probably use this for build up for future episodes. I haven't played the VN but I read that muvluv extra was a harem dating game and ML Unlimited is a combination of both harem and mecha, and also the reality of war against the PTSD inducing BETA. I prediction that there'll be serious tensions in later episodes. |

| "That's pretty impressive, getting drunk off orange juice" This episode was so epic. It keeps getting better and better for me every week. Yui was so cute when she was jealous and Cui was adorable planning out the honeymoon. The world is being invaded by aliens, countless cities and ppl dying and Yuuya has the time to make a harem...., truly a man amongst men! I cant wait to see Argos take on the americans, it promises to be insanely epic! Also we get some history on Yuuya's past in the next episode..., cant wait for some mecha action! I didnt think i could love this anime any more, and it keeps surprising me. Truly one of the best for last season and this one as well. Episode Naxcore: 5 out of 5 |

Remember that this is not Kamchatka base where the front lines are always facing BETA attacks and now place is now at Yukon base , where BETA attacks are quite easy to spot and settle down. tsubasalover said: About how the twins are always together in flashback. China girl always gets in the way between OnoD's character and Hime girl. China girl is satisfied with fighting against strong one, and into her own world. US is too strong for China girl, though. Dates with the twins, and solving older twin's worry. Oh, so it was for her to teach him martial art. This time US guy is getting in the way and fighting. Special ED?

Episode Naxcore: 5 out of 5 Same , you summarize what i was gonna say... Though for next episode I'd like to see more TSF battles , especially with the Yuuya against Scarlet Twins fight. 5 out of 5 for me as well , despite quite a number of graphical issues there. |
mrjag said: Terrible episode, I'm finally dropping this bad show. You should be saying this at like episode 5 or 6, not 17. |
mrjag said: Terrible episode, I'm finally dropping this bad show. lol, a bit late haha, I considered it in the island arc but watching shitty anime makes me enjoy the really good things much more. Too bad this started promising gore and action and shit and it turned into a generic harem |
Tenchi_Ryu said: mrjag said: Terrible episode, I'm finally dropping this bad show. You should be saying this at like episode 5 or 6, not 17. I don't blame the guy. Some people watch this for the mecha fight , BETA guro and action. While some of us are seeing the relationship between Yui and Yuuya , Cryska , Cui and other harem girls. Also to add up to that is the sketching is taken to it's worst , some parts of the show wasn't that detailed , had defects and etc. |
| Yui needs to be more aggressive in situations like this. She's being way too passive... |
 |
| Muvluv Alternative: Total Jealousy |
| Good build up episode. Loved the character development and interactions, and the tension between Leon and Yuuya was developed fairly well. The girls' jealous faces were just priceless, and the harem is finally complete. Guess everything will be going to hell soon. |
| When does the full version of that snow maiden song coming out? |
| This was one the better episodes in a while. I loved the tender moment that Cryska and Yuuya shared in the park. I'm curious though if Yuuya doesn't recognize that Cryska is falling in love with him or if he is intentionally trying to redirect her focus so he can get closer to Yui. Either way they came dangerously close to making a real connection. Looking forward to what follows. Speaking of Yui, "So you like carrots?" I guess she is new to small talk. Plus I should be relieved that shes finally trying to make her move. And the way that Yuuya grabbed her hand as they ran out of the bar! I was hoping that Yuuya had something more substantial than sword fighting lessons that he wanted to ask Yui, but an in's an in. Cui was actually adorable this episode. Shes really starting to win me over, if only that her personality is 180 degrees from the other girls. However I highly doubt that she stands a serious shot with Yui. I would like to see him end up with Cryska to be honest. I think he would be good for her and might get her and Inia out of that toxic, commie environment. I'm interested in who others think will be Yuuya's girl. |
| Let this be our little secret, no needs to know we're feeling HIGHER AND HIGHER AND HIGHER! |
| Oh BETAs were art thou? Also, more great QUALITY with some of those faces. |
 |
| When did this turn into an Harem?! i feel stupid for not noticing it since that beach episode..lol. |
 |
| Loved it and I hope leon get his butt kicked by yuuya, I hate his character. |
katsu044 said: When did this turn into an Harem?! i feel stupid for not noticing it since that beach episode..lol. Knowing this comes from a Ero Visual Novel should be enough of a sign. Hell, in there Yuuya is banging these girls left and right in the game. |
| Wow this turned into harem which is my most hated genre. Oh well its kinda too late to drop it now.... |
 |
| More bitches. Pile on the bitches! I'M LOVING IT! |
| TBH , I was expecting this introduction , but mah dreams were shattered when Cui said she wanted to go honeymoon with Yuuya.. LOL |
| lol, this just turned into a harem :P |

MichaelJohn said: Revise the World by Ayami I heard it (and I'm the one who submitted it to be added) from the special ep. (aired before ep. 15), so I know that the Special ED aired only for this ep. is not that. Miera said: Its not Revise the World till ep 20 . this is speacial ED . [ Snow Maiden ] by Misato Aki. It can be seen in the ending credit. This. |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Damn Yuuya he is surrounded with a lot sexy girls and yet he remain clueless about it ! |
 |
| CUI added to the OP, yay !!! |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| this episode made me laugh Yui's jealousy and the way she "unknowingly" stalked yuuya was hilarious but in a way cute :) Cryska's realization was heartwarming she's been through a lot, Inia solved most of her loneliness. Now she's learning the concept of "love" Cui is a complete 180 from everyone she's funny but thats about it :P I have a question for those of you who are [a lot] more into the Muv Luv universe: How did the Beta get to Earth did they ride on meteors/astroids or can they survive through the atmosphere (sorry i might have missed this) |

OT: For those who played Final Fantasy 8, when i first saw the beta on the moon then on earth, the first thing that came to my mind was the 'Lunar Cry' lol |
| It's official, they renamed this show to Much-Love Alternative: Total Harem. Lots of potential, but they fucked up as if they were J.C. Staff. Historical animation quality, fascinating story depth and uber high-tech graphical animations of doom. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |

| ...Its pretty obvoious almost no one here played the VNs. Well, whateva, lets just go on with some more romatic scenes. Did you all just forgot episode 2? Since the anime almost needs that you know from the BETA and the 5 Alternative Plans beforehand, Im gonna shortly summarize it. > BETA land on earth > Planes do shit against them cuz Laser Class > First TSF developed > G-Bombs developed (Heavy firin, but they may have side effect like an atomic bomb and make the land almost useless, so they dont use them often) > China Russia Europe Mainland compeltely overrun (iirc). > 5 Billion People died already (yes, only 1/6 of humanity is alive). > Human cant communicate with them, try anyway (and fail, more than one time) Yuuya currently a Test Pilot, and as such, on the, more or less, safe Final Defense Line. Since this plays in the Alternative Universe and Yuuya now more or less Japanese I expect: Its like the VNs and the very first episodes: FIrst regular anime-harem stuff, then it develops little more drama, |
LordofHomo said: angelslayerX said: You're going to be disappointed as well. TE is almost entirely separate from Alternative. It has about as much relation to the trilogy as Fate does to Tsukihime. The only real cross-over will be when they eventually take part in Ouka, and even then, the novels haven't gone that far and it is extremely unlikely that they'll be anything more than one of the diversions at another location. Well, im not really into cross-overing characters. Idc if we actually see Captain Sagiri, the rebllion could only be used as a plot and it would be shame if it wasnt. Still, i dboubt Yuuya gonna get his happy harem ending. His harem gonna decrease with time or else I wont accept this as canon in the MuvLuv verse and give it a 4 by default. If they do a pretty damm good job at showin how humanity struggles to fight the beta, instant 9/10. |
