I liked this movie. It should've been a series though, the thing felt too episodic.
The whole WW2 thing really appeals to me, and I loved seeing an anime in Russian, though the voices were not too good. The art was really well-done, and the CG was well-applied. However, the characters were often kind of useless and not very well introduced. Nadya was good, but that was about it. As I said, this felt like a first episode. The plot could've used improvement. Finally, about the documentary clips, I thought they didn't fit, and were annoying the way they were placed right before the action scenes, but I was still able to appreciate them. They did bother with the pacing of the movie, but didn't really ruin it, IMO. |

It was an interview at afisha.ru
There won't be documentary clips in a version for cinema. Only on DVD. Plus, they were saying something about 4 parts of the movie 0_o Last edited by konart; 2009-10-11 at 14:17. |

There are a couple of lines left untranslated in those. I definitely remember a sentence about Baron von Wolff being skipped during that monk's info-dump.

Besides there are grandparents of mine who lived through that era so pretty much anything extra I get to learn from them, heh. My late grandmother was an English teacher and once held a political position in the post-War era, so I guess there's more I learnt from that. Back to the topic, I'm wondering if First Squad are done by parts? There'll be more of it I suppose, since the end seems to be a cliffhanger.

Whoo. Good thing the thing stays away from the Asian front. I am literally born out of both sides of the WW2 Pacific campaign. And I keep getting a nagging feeling that some of my grandparents were direct victims, yet I can sort of tell when they apparently were forced to learn multiple languages during that time. Even messier still, I keep getting hints that my ancestors fought the wars directly.

Yeah, the Pacific and CBI conflicts can quickly turn sour here.
Anyways, I assume that the series continuation will be determined by the success of this film. As I said, I feel it would be interesting to see paranormal entities fighting in front of the Riechstag and such, lol. |

The anime's actually quite interesting; and the commentss of real people here and there are not as bad, make the whole occulting and bunchs undead soldiers feels more realistic.
I don't know if what they said are fake or not, because other than the comments about 6th Intelligence Division, others are general truth and could be expected to be true
