#12DaysofAnime 2: Muv-Luv Has a Major Problem (Content Warning)

So this year I played Muv-Luv Alternative. I wrote an article about my path to the game, you could give it a read if you haven’t. But what I didn’t do is write a review or anything of that sort. This won’t be a review either. What I would like to discuss is whether you should play the Muv-Luv series.

I would say, probably not.

Luv those Muvs: Muv-Luv, 14 years later

Back in 2003 an anime aired named Kimi ga Nozomu Eien (The Eternity You Desire, Kiminozo). It was, fundamentally, a fairly standard romance show. The kind I wouldn’t give a second look these days. But back then I was young and inexperienced and didn’t realize the show would lead to me writing this post now, fourteen years later.

This is my path to Muv-Luv.

Spoilers for Kiminozo, minor spoilers for Muv-Luv Extra and Unlimited, vague spoilers for Alternative after the jump.
