So like if humans somehow beat the BETA and go back to fighting humans will they switch back to jets or are they all too invested in TSFs at this pint?
>>13588628
They'll create Variable Fighters.
>>13588628

Some Schwarzesmarken live event is happening later today. Do you suppose we'll be getting anything substantial from it?
>that ace pursuit in the middle of betas

Fuck man
I wonder if it was Beatrix
>>13589032
?
Unless it was a stasi tsf, probably not.
>>13589004
this would be funny if the design flaws of the Muv-Luv series weren't so blatant.
I mean, you can't make fun of something that everyone is fully and plainly aware of. It's like pointing out the obvious, there's nothing funny in that.
Yes, all the chicks have horrible plastic-looking hair, and it sucks. So what?
>>13589032
The best pilots in SM were Iris, Beatrix, Walter, and Jurgen. Everyone else is really good, but not up to those four's standards.
>>13589104
Theo was good at close combat, right?
>>13589115
Yeah, he dominates in close combat, specifically the CIWS. His main tactic during the rebellion arc was to get in close and thrust into the cockpit of the enemy pilot.
I still think he would've lost if he tried to take on any of the four above (assuming they were piloting comparable, fully functioning machines). Actually, come to think of it, Walter might be better than Iris and Beatrixconsidering he almost killed Beato despite the fact he was in a MiG-21 and she in a MiG-27 custom
>>13589115
>>13589130
He's a shield and knife specialist actually. However, there's more to TSF vs TSF combat than knifes in the dark.
>>13589130
Yeah, but Beatrix was juggling like half a squad of TSFs.Walter was just the one to do the most damage.Walter's specialty was manuevering. He could pull all sorts of crazy acrobatics and shit in a MiG-21. His unorthodox fighting style was difficult forBeatrix at first, but once she figured him out, he was dead.
So what are you guys going to do when you get to the penetration scene?
>>13589178
Be on a route where I don't have to do this
>>13589186
not gonna happen
>>13589178
Theo'sTSF knifeis huge! How did she even survivelong enough to have a final one on one with Theoafter she'd taken it's girth into her.
>>13589178
Probably masturbate.
>>13589186
Hoho, such wistful thinking.
>>13589178
Alt+F4 and never launch the game again if there is no other route.
I was ok for a straight story without choices in Alternative because it was so well written and the main enemy were BETA so you can't really side with them anyway, but I see zero interest in doing the SM VN if you can't change the story. Just read the LN for the original story then.
>>13589217
They'll be 3 routes in the sequel, but Beatrix will never be a choice in any of them.
>>13589242
So you don't change the story.
The routes will probably at best define your love interest and change some dialogues, with an exclusive scene somewhere. Yeaaaah.
I'm more excited for the rest of BiS or even SM Altered Fables than the second VN. This alone shows how low ML felt down in the VN market.
>>13589256
No, it's just speculation, and ridiculous one at that.
The LN has an excellent jumping point already in place for a divergence. If you accept Lise's/Beatrix's offerand slap on that Werewolf unit patchyou'd effectively be locked into thestasi route.Of course, age could troll us and game us over as soon as we say yes, but then they'd have a lot of very angry otakus to deal with over in Japan.
>>13589256
>>13589217
>>13589186
Why the hell would you even want to side with Beatrix? She's an irredeemable complete monster who only gets worse and worse as the story progresses.
>>13589318
She does anal
>>13589318
Because she's cute and reforming her with the power of love.
>>13589318
Because the rebels are even shitter.
>>13589332
Beatrix is a goddess, but I doubt cute is a very good descriptor for her. Appearance wise, without the lipstick and makeup, she's extremely cute (rather than pure sex); personality wise, definitely not.
>>13589338
Rebs aren't worse. They even manage to repulse the BETA attack on Berlin at the end. The stasi do much more to hurt the war effort than the rebels ever did.
>>13589361
Yeah sure. It led to absolutely lovely ending for Europe.
>>13589361
>>13589366
If it weren't for Beatrix personally intervening,the government would've nuked the rebels and the BETA, along with half of East Germany.Does that sound like the type of government you want to stay loyal too?
>>13589366
Theyreestablish the Oder Nasse defensive line at the end.I doubt letting the stasi remain in control would've been better. The East would've fallen just the same, and Europe would get BTFO.
>>13589376
What is half of East Germany when you are talking about saving Humanity ?
Besides, you state it, Beatrix intervened. And she could have done way more with more power in the Stasi ranks, as she wanted to do.
>>13589382
" Oh shit, I wonder if the fact that rebels do their shit in late 1983 and Europe fall in 1984 are total coincidences ! "
>>13589368
Its would be the same as if Beatrix won.
*tips fedora*
>>13589386
Beatrix actually killed the fucker who was going to do it. She was incredibly pissed that he was just going to kill everyone (by contrast, she was merely amused when she found out he was trying to martyr/kill her). One of the few times she was actually sympathetic.
>>13589388
I actually laughed
>>13589388
What exactly is Iris doing? One of her jokes?
>>13589403
Yea, it's right before the start of Operation Neptune
Reposting this shit from the last thread because it has good sources on what Beato is all about.
Beatrix cares a great deal about the BETA. 2 posts from the 2ch threads (http://toro.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/magazin/1393851260/):
ベアトリクスは対BETA、人類全体を優先して東ドイツを犠牲にしようとした。あとこれも上で書いてあったが、ベアトリクスの思想とは何を優先するかの違いってのは まさしくその通りだと思う。で、その逆に、人類全体よりドイツを優先した結果がテロドールじゃないかと。
ベアトリクスでさえ人類の勝利を願ってたわけで、マスターのあの行動が人類か東ドイツを救うための 行動だとしても驚かないな。
Beatrix's plan was to use the East as a buffer while the West fucked off somewhere else.To her, it was basic triage. Sacrifice most of East Germany for a chance at survival (and bring along as many other survivors as possible) and then form a unified Germany elsewhere. She was freaking out during the rebellion and was trying to show the West/UN that she still had the situation under control (which is why she was so fucking brutal in the final volumes). To her, the BETA wars were more than just about Germany's survival, but about humanities survival.
Iris and the rest of the 666 opposed the plan on moral/nationalistic grounds (plan called for significant Ossie death). She is an idealist after all, and thinks they have a chance against the aliens if only the East and West would unite and those damn stasi would get out of the way.
Beatrix isn't completely evil. She did let Gretel's BF go when she found that it was his parents were dragging him along (vs Axmann who'd just torture the hell out of you just because).
>>13589419
A couple more from the 2ch threads (http://toro.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/magazin/1396788592/):
ベアトリクス
ラスボス。「ラスボスは最初に出しておくべき」を守って描いた。彼女の意見も正義だと思う。アイリスより人類全体を考えているかも。
Basically talks about how Beatrix had it right and Iris was wrong. Beatrix was just in the way she acted, and her putting the totality of humankind was better than Iris who put Germany first.
の、自らの死を救いに感じる描写からすると、
ベアトリクスは信念を抱いて苛烈に生きていたものの、
根っからの悪人ではなく、そうせざるをえなかった人生を重荷に感じていたんだな。
Basically states that Beatrix was forced into her role by the shittiness of her world, and that given a choice, she probably wouldn't be evil.
(from http://hello.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/magazin/1413607950/)
大体想像ついたよ テオ ドイツ>世界 ベア ドイツ<世界
Theo: Germany>World Beato: Germany<World (referring to the final battle/conversation between the two, where Theo rejects Beatrix's pleas)
So can anyone else confirm how accurate this shit is, cause it makes Beato out to be better than just a power hungry sociopath sadist?
>>13589409
>>13589388
Whose the better jokester/prankster, Beatrix or Irisdina?
>>13588987
> disturbing Kasumi's sleeping time
>>13589426
Well, Beatrix hasn't shown up much at the point I'm at in the VN so I can't really say.
You'd probably have to read BiS for that anyways.
>>13589421
I can confirm that it's what is told in the LN ( Though the final conversation between Beato and Theo is more subtle than this in Japanese. It's basically insinuated, they don't say " I want to protect the world ! " out loud ).
Actually basically everyone who dislike Beatrix doesn't even read it and are just making accusations because of her methods seen on some art and in the few accurately translated things here and there.
Yes, she is cruel, but she needs to be. Not even regarding the " evil " things she wasn't forced to do as someone stated in the last thread, but she need to be cruel to the eyes of the Stasi to consider her worth of jumping to the top of their ranks, which, once again, is her goal to try to change things and better defend Europe/Humanity.
Anyone thinking that the Rebels are better are as naive as them.
>>13589442
She jokes around quite a bit the LN. She has all her girls guffawing in one of the sidestories when she trolls the Russians by acting like a clueless but arrogant ditz/flirt. She trolls some people so bad that her boss kept on trying to send her on suicide missions (only for her fucking ace them) because he couldn't take it.
Wasn't this shit suppsoed to be about fighting BETA?
>>13589458
>>13589442
Also, you have her joking around with Lise and implying that a spar/test was a fight to the death. She couldn't believe that Lise actually fell for it and kind of ended up apologizing for it in a roundabout way.
I guess Beato's better at troll based humor, but Iris is better at actually telling jokes.
>>13589443
Her direct superior and "mentor" is fucking Axmann, so who knows what messed up shit she had to do to appease him.
>>13589458
>>13589471
Sounds nice
I wonder if I'll be able to control myself from buying the LNs before the next VN comes out
>>13589475
She was trying to look good to the Soviet command, the same who gave her the MiG-27, trying to outright Axmann and replacing him by his bosses.
He would have probably ended dead if she had the right to do it without ruining her plans.
Are the people who claim "Beatrix did nothing wrong in Schwartz" the same people who claim "America did nothing wrong in Alt"?
>>13589500
>america was wrong in alt
The british did nothing wrong in the late 18th century.
>>13589494
Isn't it awfully difficult for the soviets to give anything at all to ossies, when the entire White See and Scandinavia is bater infested?
>>13589500
Nah. Beatrix isn't an innocent hero simply on the wrong side of things.
She's just willing to wade into the muck and make the best of things. If she has to become despicable and do horrible things to help humanity survive another day, then so be it. There's also no real moral high ground here because the rebels are working with Axmann.
>>13589500
>muh waifu
>muh reasons
Yep.
>>13589500
No, it's the same people who claim that "Yuuko did nothing wrong" since they're very similar characters and share the same fan-baseCookie is a Beatrixfag for instance.
>>13589494
Wasn't she actually doing her best toaxe him later on as part of her revenge.She probably hates him just as much as she hates Schmidt and Iris.
>>13589500
No, I don't like America, because they are exactly like the Rebels : They think about themselves before anything, just that they act like they care about the BETA ( But even with 70% of the Earth invaded they still think about the aftermath and how they will rekt everyone )
>>13589526That's what she is up to. She just wants to outpower him to not fuck up her plans for Germany and have the right to kill an officer without caring about consequences, as any officer can easily kill a subordinate unmolested in the Stasi.
>>13589500
No. Fuck America.
>>13589530
With what the 666 and Heim knew, rebelling against the stasi was pretty logical really. The view from the ground was that the government was doing a horrible job running things and if left in power would fuck everything over anyways. Beatrix and the stasi stance is also logical given what they knew. Basically, everyone did the best they could off of the info they had and neither side was totally right or wrong. Axmann was the only guy who was purely out for himself and ended up making sure there'd never be compromise between the Rebs and Loyalists.
>>13589542
I guess that explains why Axmann was always trying to get her to incriminate herself.
I hate that scenes like Beatrix's and Axmann's confrontation got cut from the VN because of its limited view point.
>>13589511
Beatrix manages to use her political acumen to insure her and her battalion always get the latest goodies before the NVA can.
>>13589552
Sure the rebels didn't have all the infos on the situation to think properly, but come on, this kind of action is well planned. You don't make up a rebellion by only looking at the surface of things. Did they even try to infiltrate the Stasi ranks to know what they were planning to doexcept for Axmann ( Who is spotted as unreliable from 100km away )?
>>13589572
It'd be hard as hell to infiltrate the stasi. Just like in RL, they're a very close knit community due to how much everyone around them hates their guts. Also very fanatic for the most part. Just look at how crazy that stasi LT bitch who charged a group of armed soldiers with a knife was. Axmann and his Berlin Faction cohort were actually the dejects that nobody else in the stasi liked.
>>13589630
I wonder how much would it have fucked with Iris if Beato was the rebel's insider.
Who liked it better when Beatrix was just some crazy sadistic lesbian rapist and irredeemable sociopathic cunt who schlicked herself silly over thoughts of Irisdina's misery?
>>13589927
Hitler.
>>13589938But Beatrix is possibly Jewish.
>>13589927
I think most people prefer "Stasi-Yuuko" Beato over "Pham-Rapist" Beato.
Anyone else think of Bernkastel whenever Beato pops up:

>>13589552
The Americans were also doing the right thing with the best information known to them - that the G-bomb had a proven record, having successfully subjugated Hive 22, and the Japanese Alternative 4 had taken seven years with no results to show.
>>13589242
Iris' Germany United My Way route where you fuck over everyone then retire in some quiet section of Germany living out your lives regardless of humans or BETA.
Katia's Tear Down This Wall route where you become nothing more than her consort, bodyguard, and lover. Because anyone better is dead and the dream of living in a quiet section of Germany is dead.
Lise's Fuck Germany, Fuck Everything, Fuck Lise until she's begging for Theo cock, and Fuck Axemann too while Fucking the Stasi from within route. Where you end up allying with Beatrix, launching a coup within the Stasi, and fulfilling Beatrix' desire before retiring in a nice little home in an isolated section of Germany.
>>13589361
America still did the most in the end. Funniest part about all this, an American A-10 force was called into holding a key line in Germany vs the BETA as Germany's surviving citizens were performing a mass-exodus west into the rest of Europe.
And they did so down to the last TSF, and were able to successfully hold off the BETA long enough to make the exodus through that key area a success.
>>13591554
Up until the first use of G-bombs, America is still kind of half-heartedly dedicated to fighting the BETA. They aren't sending a ton of forces into engagements but they're still dispatching units to do shit. Afterwards, they more or less go into full "fuck TSFs, fuck everyone, let's just stockpile G-bombs". There's still plenty of heroics here and there but there's enough pro-Alt V people in command to make it difficult for American forces to actually participate meaningfully in anti-BETA operations.
Hell, the Raptor's basically their ideal machine because it's got anti-TSF features as well as anti-BETA features and they still almost cancelled it because they felt they didn't need a new one.

What is this shit. They fucked Beatrix up.
>>13592677
Axmann looks good though.
>>13592677
Her face...
>>13592677
Dropped.
>>13592689
Lacks the femininity her LN/VN design has. One of the things that makes Beato work so well is that she's so feral looking, but at the same time, so feminine. The hair in the anime design also lacks the "poofy" softness to it you see in the LN shit.
Beato's design is extremely difficult to adapt, so I knew that they'd screw it up.
>>13592681
>>13592677
Axmann looks great. Him and Iris are the only ones who I think the anime improved upon. If only the same could be said about Beatrix.
>>13592681
Looks like a Death Note character.
>>13592677
Looks like shit.
>>13592677
look much older now
>>13592677
So I guess we know that Beato has the largest rack of all the SM characters.
Also, her face in the middle shot looks like a drug addict or some shit. They made her way too old looking. She's younger than Irisdina for crying out loud. Soften up her face a bit, thicken her hair up and she'd look way better.
>>13592739
And give her decent breasts, not those watermelons. She is busty, but there is some limits.

I expect this shot is from the perspective of dead infantryman girl at the start. She must has good eyes for a dying person.
Does it concern anyone else that the last PV had no animation in it at all, and the latest PV only contains Episode 1 animation?

Because in the non-backstory portions, she's pretty much a prick. Makes it easier for people to want her dead, I suppose.

Apart from the sexiness, the design lacks the mischievousness that it should. I mean, she's fucking brutal, cruel, and bloodthirsty, but she's also a prankster.

>>13592812
Hmm, fair point. At this stage, her eyes kinda look like Kudelia's from IBO.
Clearly, this is a character assassination against Beatrix-sama. Liden saw that Beatrix was getting too popular so the uglified her in the hopes that it'd tilt the equilibrium back to Irisdina and Katia.
>>13592795
She's pretty nice too her subordinates.
>>13592812
>>13592677
So that thing in Shirobako where the author is god and if he doesn't like the character designs he can keep demanding they change it until they get it right, that's not really a thing?
>>13592833
Why does she look like fucking Taiga?
>>13592810
âge did it again.
Though it also reminds me some Miyazaki OST. I can't remember which one.
Guess it's a common sequence.
>>13592677
Barely see anything different, frankly.
What, are people taking umbrage at her being apparently slightly less of a walking fuckbait?
>>13592840
Jürgen was joking around with her and she was being tsun over it. Here's the dialogue:
"It was. So I'm going to have to punish you!"
"Punishment? ~ Alright, alright, what do you want to—"
Looking overwhelmed, Beatrix blurted "Please go out with me Jürgen Bernhard!"
>>13592848
Get your eyes checked
Also
> less of a walking fuckbait
That's kinda what she does in the story (never puts out though, just teases).
>>13592863
My eyes are fine, friend, I say that as someone with glasses.
Worst I could even say is that she looks slightly older than she is in-series. Looks like BiS rubbed off on the crowd the wrong way.
>>13592739
I thought Sylwia was supposed to be the tits queen of SM.
>>13592875
>>13592892
Well, side-by-side, I'll concede that the eyes and the...'feeling' of the face, for lack of a better term, are probably also a little bit outstanding. But then again, you know, different character designers - it's not a massive deviation from the finished product and it's not like they have Carnelian on the staff, disregarding how odd it would potentially be to try and have her designs adapted note for note.
>>13592909
>>13592677
Am I the only one to be more disappointed by her body/bust ( And hair ) than her actual face ?
Considering the face is not in close-up, that's actually pretty normal that it looks totally off, it's always like that with anime budgets, so I was more or less prepared. But the body is totally wrong on so many sides at mid-range that I fear for any of her appearance in background, regardless of the distance.
>>13592925
Yeah. Boobs way to big and she doesn't have the curves or proportions that she should.
>>13592952
>>13592925
Also, another comparison of her in her BDUs (fortified suit is kinda unfair).
>>13592629

>>13592551
Man I'm always disappointed whenever TSFs are animated I expected them to be like Scopedogs with jets up the ass zipping around blasting shit
Anime PV:

>>13592551
God damn that one guy looked like the german merc from TE at glance.
>>13592984
TE's case was just terrible budget and scene choreography management.
In SM's case those are 1G tincans. Although, at the climax fights there should be plenty of zipping around since those are VS humans rather than VS BETA.
The song, though... the song never fits.TE at least used its OST for the PVs and it's a lot better than the first hearing of GOING GOING, but SM overbalanced the scale by being dark as shit so the song still ends up sounding like it belongs to a lighter-hearted action series.
>>13592551
Can anyone translate what's Theo saying in the PV?
To me, it sounds something like "After the end of World War II, Germany was split into two, East and West. This marked the beginning of the era called the Cold War".

Who is the one asshole in the squadron who carries a sword instead of a gun and is obviously dragging the whole team down?

>>13593377
That'd be Annette. Don't worry, Theo gives her shit for it, but it turns out being skilled in swords is pretty useful when you're trying to destroy the cockpit block of cute stasi girls.
>>13593377
>Hating on sword
I bet you are american.
>>13592919
Better comparison here. Anime Beatrix is clearly missing the charm of her VN counterpart. She's too rough looking. It's going to be odd seeing that using Yukarin's "sexy villainess" voice
>>13593377
Swords don't run out of ammo.
>>13593424
It's just a matter of waiting and seeing, I guess.
>>13593332
That's basically what he is saying. It's pretty much the intro of the VN where they explain all the ML story, Germany-centered, except they don't talk much about the BETA here.
Finally finished it last night.
Really liked it.
It was funny seeing Theodoreretionalizing and dealing with his love for Iris in the last few segments
Eagerly awaiting the second so I can hop on those alt routes
>>13593671
>love for Iris
So I guess we're not getting a Lise route. Poor imouto.
>>13593377
Those reactive shields are sooo ugly.
If any story told before the XM3 come up features TSFs with shields, I will not bear it. If your chances are 90% up to die in battle, fight with some class at least.
>>13593682
Going out with Sumika as canon route in Extra didn't stop Takeru to love someone else in Unlimited.
>>13593688
>Those reactive shields are sooo ugly.
What the fuck
>>13593696
Yeah, but Sumika didn't exist in Unlimited. Iris is still kinda there.Not much of a Beato or Lise fag. If the game locks me into Iris and requires I penetrate the two stasis, I'll penetrate them, but I would've like the choice not too.
>>13593688
>Wot are you on about m8: The Post
No, seriously. "Class"? For whom, the teenage infantry freezing their bones off in the trenches when SM starts?
>>13593682
Well things can still change, he was also determined to definately make Liz happy and to protect Katia.
Age can still sneak in some divergences.
Though Liz did say thatIris looks exactly like the type that Thodore likes. Just like the girls in the magazine she found under his bed back during their school days
>>13592833
> character assassination against Beatrix-sama
Most Beatrixfags liked BiS more, just like most Irisfags like SM more. The SM anime won't really make Beato less popular, but it might make Iris more.
Just a question, how many of you would watch a BiS adaption?
>>13593705
>>13593738
I always hated the very idea of having Mechs with shields. That's just disgusting and kill the wearer's design.
>>13593688
>fight with some class at least
Treize pls.
>>13592838
It depends on how unreasonable they are and how much they insist on accuracy/etc.
>>13593749
I don't get Beatrixfags at all. I honestly don't know why anyone would ever choose to waifu Beatrix. Irisdina is superior in every way. She's more interesting, she has a better personality, she isn't a sadistic scumbag, and she's far more attractive. All the love stasicunt gets here, on /a/, and on the wiki is just mind-boggling.
>>13593828
Iris devotes her time to a very idealistic cause that's doomed to failure and ultimately sides with a man so vile and terrible even the other Stasi don't like him. And at the end of all that, she pays with her life for relying on the aid of that scumbag.
>>13593843
Iris is a good person at heart, unlike Beatrix.
The story points out that Iris is number one and was always effortlessly beating Beatrix in every measurable category. No matter how hard she tries, Beatrix will always be second best because Irisdina is just better.
From BiS you have: 运动神経抜群で、勉学においても学年トップクラス。クラスメイトのみならず、学校内でも広く慕われている...
Iris was the most popular girl in school and she always made top grades in everything. Compared to Beatrix, who's an awkward loner who pranks people to get attention. Iris is probably letting her hang out with her out of sympathy really. It was a real shock to her that Jürgen would actually date someone like Beatrix.
>>13593891
Being a good person at heart is kind of meaningless when you pal up with the likes of Axmann.
>>13593935
And how would she have known how horrible Axmann is. From Iris's perspective, Beatrix was the true evil in the stasi. Beatrix's atrocities are out in the open. She's the face of the stasi, the one running about actually shooting protesters in the street. With what she knew, Axmann wasn't that bad. He was giving her information and wanted Beatrix dead just as badly as she did. Enemy of my enemy sort of deal.
>>13593828
>More interesting
Ahah no.
>Better personality
Ahah no.
>Isn't a sadistic scumbag
Ok I will give you that even if scumbag should trigger my hate.
>Far more attractive.
Ahah, no.
But your attempt was interesting.
>>13593391
>but it turns out being skilled in swords is pretty useful when you're trying to destroy the cockpit block of cute stasi girls.
Well, not like we see any of them, I imagine.
>>13593982
Being a crazy psycho doesn't make you more interesting, just more crazy.As far as personality, she's not the one trying to have you incriminate yourself so she can drag you back to her funhouse to have your bones folded and teeth removed. Iris would me more interesting to talk to and she has a better sense of humor.
>>13594005
They've already been a few cute stasi shown so far. You'll at least get to seeLise'swingman since she's a named character (and is described as being pretty cute until Annetemulches her).
>>13593966
Because Axmann is Beatrix's boss. She's an idiot if she thinks he's clean.
>Irisfags bashing Beatrix when Iris was trying just as hard to kill Beatrix and her squad
I don't think either Beato or Iris have the moral high ground in their little feud.
>>13594049
>Because Axmann is Beatrix's boss.
How would she know unless Axmann told her?
>>13594049
One of the funny things about Axmann is that he doesn't like to get his hands dirty; he almost always has/forces someone else to do the horrible shit. That way, he can wash his hands of it if it backfires (and he gets to see the joy of more miserable people). Take Lise,he didn't personally rape her, he forced other prisoners/his subordinates to do it. That's actually one of the big contrast between Beatrix and Axmann. Whenever she has to do something incredibly shitty (usually ordered by Axmann), she's the first one in and the one doing most of it so her subordinates don't have to.
Wait a moment, are they seriously going to try for seven novels in just one cours?
I'm already pissed off by the handling of Antimagic Academy this season, and that's just five novels.
>>13594082
They can do it if they speed through the first half to get to the rebellion arc.
it's confirmed one cour? i'm going ultra mad
>>13594088
>speeding through Operation Neptune
>>13594020
>I didn't read the LN nor understood what was going on
Just lurk this thread for the Beatofags posts who resume pretty much who she really is. Iris is at least as bad as Beatrix in her own way, and if you think hard that she is more interesting with a better personnality, you are wrong. That's your choice to prefer her, but the two have different good and bad sides, and are both lovable if you side with either one.
>>13594080
If anything, that should draw more suspicion given the rep the Stasi have. If the Stasi are so big and bad and evil, and this one guy has gotten so high up and doesn't seem to be as bad as the rest of them, that alone should draw some suspicion.
At this point it's just making Iris look even more like a total dumbass.
>>13594082
Anime will cover first VN.
>>13594049
>>13593982
Iris's shortcomings are due to lack of information, not because she's a fricken sociopath.
>>13594115
But they don't really know what goes on behind the veil. All they know is that a faction of the stasi don't like the direction things are headed and want to help them out. Beatrix is the only one who really get's publicized about because her beauty and charisma make her tailor-made for the spotlight. She's pretty much the face of the stasi. Even towards the end, many of the loyalist thought she was some sort of hero (which is whySchmidt was trying to martyr her to drum up support for himself).
>>13594142
See >>13594112
God, I hope /a/ will get all the waifu wars of SM when the anime will air, and that we won't get more pointless wars here. I don't mind siding for one, but trying to say one is better than another will just bring doom on those threads.
>>13594160
You better pucker your ass cheeks then, because there's no stops on this wild ride.Honestly, with the direction BiS is going, Iris is probably going to be losing a ton of fans in the coming months.
>>13594160
Peoples will end up liking both anyway
>>13594188
They're diametrically opposed to one another. If the Japanese fandom is anything to go by, no they won't.

I'm getting Selvaria flashbacks here.

>>13594223
>Valkyria anime
Please.
Actually Selvaria would be more like Theo : She doesn't give a fuck about killing everyone as long as it's what her lover wants. But she have a good side under what she let appear, like Beatrix.
>>13594270
>>13594223
No, I'm talking about the step down in character design between the game and anime.
>>13594274
Oh, ok.
Though I doubt they can go shittier than what VC got. The chara design adaptation weren't even bad, it was totally something else.
>>13592677
Those tits are gigantic. I ain't compaining.
>>13592709
Maybe they should've gottenZiZ.
>>13594322
What the hell is ZiZ?
Why would anyone hate her
I'm tired of token moemoe imouto characters too but this one is actually learning from her mistakes and stayed strong after fighting monsters on foot
>>13592677
She looks too tired, not playful/perky enough.

Yea I thought the same thing.
Everyone was saying how she was this supposed annoying character through and through.
But that wasn't the case at all, she's so lovable and matures throughout the plot.
Also I love her voice. A lot.
>>13594429
With a few exceptions, most of the characters are more likable in the VN.
>>13593332

AT-X isn't always uncensored.
>>13592582
Pretty much. I think it actually looks worse than TE for what it is, that had nicer 3D and a similar level of 2D when it wasn't going full Korea.
>>13592838
Yoshimune is old as fuck and used to anime being totally different than other versions, he doesn't give a fuck. This is the director that hacked Kiminozo into a vaguely successful 1 cour anime too.
>>13594491
Well, we know which two douchebags are to blame for that.
>>13592677
>>13594322
I don't think anyone else pointed it out, so I'll say it: what the fuck is up with her ankles? It's not just her, naturally, but it's particularly pronounced there. If you're going to bother putting people in riding boots, you might as well try and get some idea of what they look like other than "shiny leather knee socks."
It's not inspiring a lot of confidence in the character artist. Oh well. Personally, I'd trade huge tits for ankles that didn't look like they were about to snap.
>>13594494
But the CGI is much better here it's not even funny
Will it ever be sunny on the Oder-Neisse line or does the whole of Schwarzesmarken take place in winter?
>>13594525
u wot m8
TE's CGI looked pretty nice in its very first PV too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W15eINDUuaA
Then again, it was made up entirely of what seems to be test footage that was never actually used in the show.
Pic not relates
>>13594534
It mainly take place in October/December, and by the time Sun points out its face again, BETA will overrun the place.
So no sunny days for you.
>>13594548
You don't do test footages in 3D. It was done for the only purpose of PV marketing.
>>13594534
Nope, always dark and gloomy. BiS and SM Extra look pretty sunny though.
>>13594541
Wow you found 1 out of 3 good cut in a whole 2 cour anime, impressive.
There was some really badly storyboarded sequences but the actual extent of what they could do in TE was really good.
Schwaken you can see that stuttery low frame rate shit going on, the flight sequence is barely animated and the reactive armour part is just embarrassing.
>>13594557
lelwat
>>13594573
Seeing how those machines do not use XM3, that's completely plausible choreography for them.

Wow you found an inbetween frame of the worst action sequence in the show.
>>13594577
The framerate is low on purpose to make it look 2D The shading and models are definitly better
>>13594577
You don't do test footages in 3D.
What is unclear ? You don't spend valuable time into doing several 10+ seconds long animations for nothing. The only thing you test is the rig after it's done to see if it is working well enough to animate the model. The next thing tested are the renders, which are tested on single frame and not by the same team. Animators don't send testing anims to the render team just for fun.

You at least realize that pic looks terrible right?
>>13594551
Doesn't it take place in the early months of 1983, not the later. Also, the Westmanages to push back the BETA from Berlin while Theo stabs Beato in their duelI know the final chapter is an epilogue showing that the survivors are kinda happy a few months after the rebellionwhich get's shit on if you know what's happening in 1984.
>>13594594
Seriously ? It's a turnover and a running cycle for marketing purposes. Again, there is no such things as tests in 3D animation that someone else than the animator and his team can see.
>>13594606
>there is no test in 3D animation outside the test animations
>>13594598
According to the VN Chapter list the first VN stretches from 1983/1/10 to 1983/3/20
I don't know how much the next one will cover

>what is licensor and production approval
>>13594611
It's worth noting BETA occupation fucks the weather, Kamchatka is still fairly cold in August.
>>13594610
>>13594613
No entire scenes RENDERED of several seconds used only in a PV.
Do you even know how 3D animation works you fucks ? Anything RENDERED ( Which means with animations finished for a scene ) is paid, so no, that's not fucking tests and its marketing to create scenes only for PV purposes.
