If you know this game, you probably gonna want to watch the anime based on it. Valkyria chronicles is one of the best games of strategy that I have ever seen. The game received many "awards" such as IGN choosing it as one of the bests of the year, not to mention the high grades given to it. Anyway, the Aniplex's A-1 Pictures anime studio is creating an anime based on the game because of its great story. Here are some pictures concerning the anime drawings and a picture of the game to compare:

#UPDATE 3#

Ok, this will probably be my last update. I will change the post title once more(sorry for that) now that I know the name of the anime is actually Valkyria Chronicles and it doesn't have the possibility of changing anymore.
Anyway, great news: Valkyria Chronicles' first episode has been released!! From now on, it will be kept that way, being weekly released. Here are a few images of the anime:

wow their making a anime awesome

Here is an official website of the anime:

do you know the release date

Yeah, they've been talking about this one for a while now. Hopefully it'll at least live up to the game, unlike some other anime based on games...

"The Anime will be produced by A-1 Pictures and is scheduled for release sometime during Spring 2009."

That is all that I know until now....

Hopefully this anime will be as good as the game it is based, but I still find it difficult to have a sequel, I mean, the game sold quite poorly(unfortunately), so, this may be the last thing we shall ever see of this series(besides the fanarts)

I doubt it too. At least, we are receiving 2 DLCs this year, so that we can play as Selvaria and have another few extras. Little big planet is also receiving DLC based on Valkyria chronicles. Here is a picture:

Anyway, I just wait it doesn't turn up something bad and for what I can see, the story is gonna be the same one from the game, which is a relief.

At the moment, I'm watching the anime. And my golly, the quality curse hit it pretty damn hard. I'd rather have RAITA's actual style for the anime instead (P.S. Yes that H mangaka did do the character designs for the game). D:

The only thing keeping me watching is Susumu Chiba, Jun Fukuyama, and Takahiro Sakurai. Haha, I just gained a soft spot for these seiyuu, hopefully if you know my reasons why!

Welkin in the anime is so retarded. Hes our brilliant squad 7 leader in the game, but hes an idiot in the anime. Anyone else getting really angry about this?

I am a little bit angry too. Welkin is being shown this way because the main character is Alicia.
