Any chance that the remaining pages in this pool would be translated?

Leaving aside the fact that the artwork isn't even up to his usual standards, the art style quite simply just does not fit with the rest of the game. Kind of like how putting a white sci-fi laser gun in WWII shooter just isn't kosher but Valkyria Chronicles can get away with all the shit it pulls.

Well, Valkyria Chronicles isn't World War 2, since it's not on earth, or at least not this earth.

People really have trouble grasping that Valkyria Chronicles isn't trying to be a historical fiction. It's like if people thought Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance was about the Crimean War because the starting country is called Crimea.

No, it's a World War 2-style setting with the addition of magic. Honestly, I probably would have used Dino D-Day instead but I was concerned that no one would recognize or even agree with the reference.

It seems the apple fell far far from the tree.

Oy, just because its in a style you don't like you don't have to call the legend they got to do it incompetent.

The art looks incomplete and bad. It looks like examples of peoples early artwork when they are still developing their skills or when people take shortcuts. The people at the company shoupd not have accepted it as a final piece.

So it's Unryuu all over again.

is it actually releasing november-ish

Added the alternate language tag since this is originally available as a loading screen manga in-game.

Comic Sans...

Can't wait to play it on EN version! :om3tcw:

Country girl.

Goated

According to the commentary, the artist drew this after seeing something similar done with the female characters of Dungeon Meshi, with all of the girls here (all of the commanders + Übermensch) having their hairstyle the same as Miho.

The one who looks the most off to me, surprisingly, is Maho. The other's hairstyles are so different from their norm (minus Katyusha, but she pretty much looks the same), that it just falls under the mental category of alternate hairstyle, but Maho's hairstyle was already pretty similar to Miho's, that the tiny change (the inward curled sidelocks in front of the mid-length sidelocks) completely throws me off.

personally Marie looks the most off to me here. I almost didn't recognize her without her curls. You could tell me that that's a completely different character from the manga about Count High and I'd believe you, since I'm so unfamiliar with that series

Katyusha is just her normal self :)
Except for a little split in her bangs.

It's probably the lack of drill hair and the fact that she's one of the few characters who doesn't normally have bangs. Kay retained her hair intakes and messy-ish hair, so Marie could have had longer parted bangs (exposing her forehead) with sidelocks that had slight drills to them.

Mandela effect where I thought this is what Erika always looked like after the first time I watched GUP.

The booklet is on Internet Archive here. It instructs the reader on GBA/ROMs/visual novel conversion.

This is.. so.. cinema

Absolute Cinema

Smashes

Who's that next to emi?

It's a parody of a part in Oshi no Ko's 2nd op

Been seeing an uptick of memes regarding this recently, doesn't seem to have a danbooru tag yet, though. Saw them with the caption " "Yeah bro I'm masculine" Also me as soon as there's a girl option in a game "

I've personally only seen the "Yeah bro I'm masculine" variant with this specific (Kita) one. Also, the Hoshino Ruby dance tag was created yesterday for this specific parody.

Cuter art style and clothing; as a Mengo work, Ruby's smile is a bit uncanny and psychotic by design.

∀UO!?

Oui oui pi pi?

Money doesn't buy happiness.
It buys crazy-ass happiness.

Takashima Remi's birthday is on 29 Septemeber.

The symbols are the same, and they can use them as fans if it gets hot, so it should work out. 😸

Wow, they did the same, and are that even bothered.

Really fucking good.

Imagine her battling Judith from Tales of Vesperia, Sora from Kingdom Hearts or Dizzy from Guilty Gear. All sound like awesome choice battles to me.

Thought she was a Zenless character.
