| Are they going to ignore the events prior of Alternative? How is that supposed to work for anime only viewers? |
| I agree, it is a very important plot point Takeru dicked all the girls in all the other timelines. That and y'know, the proper buildup to all the important events. |

Yeah, I feel like skipping Unlimited takes a lot away from Alternative. And it's hard to imagine Unlimited being anywhere near as interesting without going through Extra first. Although I'm of the opinion Unlimited is vastly underrated, so I may be biased. Here's to hoping it turns out okay. |

They could fast forward Extra (it's a complete garbage anyway) but it is impossible to pretend it never existed... Unlimited is much more tricky... |
| im interested on this since its highly praise like it reminds me of how much Evangelion is praise too its even a huge influence to Attack on Titan i heard too but ye i also want a complete adaptation and not just the ending arc |
| It's probably intended to be complimentary to those who have already read Muv Luv. |

| The best way they can handle Extra is by using flashbacks or doing a sort of "Episode 0" type thing like in Total Eclipse. Actually they can do Unlimited then have the jump and use a montage to get to where the divergence happens in Alt. Takes care of both of those at once, and again Extra can be a sort of prologue via flash backs or something. It deviates from source to a degree but can't have it all perfect and I'd rather they spend budget on Alt instead anyways. I'm already just happy to get more anime adaptions of Muv-Luv. I've been hoping for some TDA adaptions since SM was fairly good. |

I've been hoping for some TDA adaptions since SM was fairly good. This is probably what they'll do, but it'll still lose all of the impact. Extra is important to Unlimited because we've seen Takerus daily life and we understand his struggle to get it back. And Unlimited is important to Alternative because Takeru now has seen the end of the world and he's a completely different guy, so we can emphasize with Takeru because we know of his origin. Aside from the fact that anime onlys won't understand why we all praise Muv Luv Alternative so much, I'm extremly excited to see it all animated! |
 |
| They can do some flashbacks in the beginning. Extra (especially) and to a lesser extent Unlimited are pretty weak, I don't think adapting them completely would be smart. Most anime fans would probably drop it. I hope they adapt Muv Luv Alternative well, thats the best VN ever |
| What is this? They should continue the total eclipse. Why the hell they made another? Previous adaptation still no progress and here we are another series. |
The world is cruel, ugly and pitiful. Let's watch anime and make it colorful |
| I enjoyed Alternative. Will this be the same character and plot or different? |
 Yahallo! Yatta! Baka! <!  "Humans, your existence was a mistake. Conflicts, lies, jealously, greed. You once caused me to lose everything and today I will devour everything... Because I am the Valkyrie Goddess"> |
| I'm curious how much are they going to ruin it. I'm so glad I played the VN and enjoyed its whole beauty. |
 |
| so the characters are different than the last one? I don't play the visual novel I only know the anime and it's spin off anime |

There was always very little interest for Total Eclipse and other spin-offs. They are very inferior compared with the original. |
AdrianRubinsky said: Are they going to ignore the events prior of Alternative? How is that supposed to work for anime only viewers? There was an interview with Kouki at the beginning of the year. I hope things haven't changed since then, because it could be a great anime if they go with this kind of adaptation. Also, you can read the full interview here (spoilers, obviously). |

The MC popping out of nowhere later on will be weird. |

I think the anime would be interesting if we'd get a Yuuko POV for the Alternative events. Or Meiya's POV for that matter Also, Total Eclipse had a POV change, and I think it wasn't bad or jarring. |
| honestly who knows i wanna play the VN, its like one of the best i heard |
| I Can say i didn't even read Unlimited and Extra. Only Alternative and worked fine. Just google a little but not much I think flashback was good enough. Also I was a Sumika team anyway hahaha. Like there was only "one" route in Alternative. |

The adaptation is being handled by the original creator and the VN company who said it will probably be multiple seasons to have enough time to tell the story. It seems they know the landmine field they are in and decided to take full control. So yea.... maybe this VN adaptation will work. |

| Ok so I'm confused. I originally watched Muv Luv Alternative and it was great. Steam then got Muv Luv Extra, Unlimited and Alternative VNs which I've been working through. Where does this tie into it all? Like a break down of order to read/play/watch? Is Total Eclipse essentially stand alone? |

Is Total Eclipse essentially stand alone? It' pretty simple. There is the main trilogy, which is extra/unlimited and alternative. Then there are the spin offs, which are Total Eclipse and Schwarzesmarken. And there are the side stories(Photonmelodies, photonflowers, etc). As for playing order, play the main trilogy first then you can play/watch whichever you want after that. So this anime isn't relevant to anything at all? |

clint87 said: The Anime is an adaptation of the third part of the trilogy’, Muv Luv Alternative. It’s also considered one of the greatest visual novels of all time, which is why the hype is high for it. I’m about half way through it now after binging the first two parts over the last couple of weeks. Firstly, the VN is living up to expectations lol. secondly I have no idea how they’re going to handle this without Extra and Unlimited. Extra really makes the drama in Alternative hit home. Hopefully it’s just called Alternative for marketing purposes but it covers both Extra and Unlimited as well. If this is an adaptation of the third part of the trilogy then what was Total Eclipse? It's all very confusing. xD |

Tho I did enjoy Total Eclipse and got me into the franchise. I'm trying to get myself through Extra.. bit too eh for me, waiting for the action in Unlimited/Alternative myself. |

| I am surprised there wasnt Muv Luv extra harem anime done prior to this |
 |
| As a relatively new person to the franchise (I've only watched total eclipse prior) this is getting beyond annoying. Why dont they anime the first games first? They keep releasing things in such a strange order that is damaging the franchise imo. I really like the universe from what I've seen of TE but making me go back to try the other games that is possibly 100's of hours is turning me off and I will not watch this... whoever is in charge of these decisions should be sent packing. |

| This is really suck... Muv-luv Alternative no doubt the best part of the series but if they introduce it right off the bat it'd make audience confuse wtf is going on. I doubt they can fully convey the message of Alternative giving the sheer length of lore and build-up of its. I mean they did this series dirty by only 12 episode how is that enough for fan let only anime viewers to know how epic the battle of Sadogashima the desperate of Beta taking over Yokohama Base and the fierce and suicide final battle. |
