Arpeggio of Blue Steel

Post by shutdown » Fri Dec 13, 2013 9:23 am

This series is enjoyable if you like the whole Alien Robots/A.I. disguised as WWII Naval Vessels with Female Avatars (Metal Model). As a fan of the manga and only found out about the anime a few hours ago and have seen the first 2 episodes and have more downloading I hope the keep it going.

Here's some links for you.

This is why Animee and Manga frustrates me so much. One would think there would be plenty of fembot action in this, but despite the presence of female AI avatars there is almost none.

In my opinion, the manga is way more better than the anime.
The Story is well made in my opinion, it gives the urge feeling to play something with battleships XD

There's 2 more episode yet to screen and hopefully they'll do season 2.

Agreed. The anime diverges completely from the manga and feels more than a little rushed...

I like the anime all those other Ionas freaked me out in the manga, they all looked way too small.

They used too much 3D animation to key-scenes, so they look stiff... even facial expression are from the quality lower than other (more or less) handdrawn anime
