What about the voice acting is it good ( I mean does it at least fallow the characters image from the manga. Maybe at least this will convince me to watch it, because after what you guys told me, I'm honestly not too eager to watch the anime of RV in the near future. |

I felt the voice acting was OK. Tsukune sounded like a wimp. Period! I found Outer Moka's voice irritatingly high pitched. Even though it was same VA for both Outer/Inner Moka, I thought Inner's was voice too deep. So, for me, Moka was a miss as well. The rest of the voices were actually pretty good. As for the anime character designs, they kinda follow the art found in the first volume of the manga. They had the more cartoony look. I much prefer the art and character designs in the later chapters of S1 and all of S2. The girls, with the excepts of Yukari and Kokoa, were drawn with MUCH larger boobs than in the manga. And Moka's grow much larger as Inner Moka. It may appeal to some, but I didn't like it. The girls in the manga are drawn much more natural looking. Although, ironically, manga Outer Moka's breasts do gain a cup size when she becomes Inner according to the official manga guide book. This growth isn't illustrated in manga - Outer/Inner's bodies are exactly the same. And since her sizes were given in Japanese measurements, the gain isn't actually much or that noticeable, unlike the anime would lead you to believe. |

I can sum it up in a simple sentence:
the anime is an abomination compared to the manga then again, it was done by GONZO... and if you've been following any of their releases within the past few years, you'll find that they're tossing out plot for fanservice in most of their releases

Hopefully, they'd sell the anime license for R+V to someone who could redo the anime and give it the awesomeness it deserves. |

Well, I think I get the picture, and as far as I'm concerned I'm gonna stick to the manga.

Well, I think I have heard enough about the anime , so could we move to a different topic. For example, does anyone know when the translation of the current chapter is going to be released ? |

Spoiler for Kokoa,Chapter 25:
Do you think that Kokoa is going to join Tsukune's harem, well if we take this scene, then she could be also developing feelings for Tsukune. ( Notice that similarity between Kokoa's and Kurumu's expressions ... ) |

But if you want to really be disturbed about voices, let me present you of the OTHER extreme you might not have ever thought of. In the video below, fast forward to about 4:15 and you'll see what I mean... that is, IF you don't fall out of your chair laughing your ass off. I would have to say, that if I really wanted to insult someone's sensitivity, I would cast voices like that for female characters no matter how cute and feminine they were. Be happy and thankful they never pulled this gag in R+V, you'd be traumatized. (but the rest of the video here is quite funny too, hitting on the subject of greasy sumo wrestlers, and snobby rich wannabes, etc. etc.) Except for Tsukune. Wimp all the way. I guess the anime's writers have major inferiority complexes that they feel they have to take away a character's GARness because they themselves can't imagine the wonders of it. Quote:

Well I think that RV deserves a decent animation, but it seems it's probable that it won't, which is a shame. What I would want to see Tsukune being GAR in th anime. And GrrDraxin it's probably true that the writers of the RV anime felt inferior to Tsukune and wanted to drag him down to their level. |

I did say that Tsukune's voice was wimpy. It seemed like the writers didn't even bother to read the manga. They just thought, "Oh. It's the typical wimpy hero who gets himself an unwanted harem, lets make him sound like a pussy." |

It's good that you're considering that. But don't jump on that bandwagon just yet, watch only the recommended episodes that won't make your eyes, ears (or even your brain for lack of plot) bleed, I'll try and compile a episode list that will hopefully prevent you from having R+V pantyshot nightmares. It's probably fairly common in a lot of anime. If the character has more charm and GAR than the script writers, they get intimidated being compared and so make the character far more of a wuss than they were originally depicted in the source material. Unless it was a rape hentai manga, then they go overboard on making the females look even more pitiful and suffer more than they were originally. Quote:

Okay, so either could pull off a deadpan inner Moka, and looking at their credentials, maybe even outer Moka. Anyone that could pull off cutesy characters like Neneko Izumi from DearS(Chiwa Saito), or Chiriri from Bottle Fairy(Kaori Nazuka) could probably make it work. But if the anime ever gets licensed outside Japan, then we'll really have an issue going for who to choose there.
So here's my own guide to the anime, I took some time to skim through both seasons, and as expected, Capu 2 fails to even bother keeping with even half of the manga story elements. But the thing you'll notice is the elements are there, but the context is different for most of the anime compared to the manga. At least someone here has to stick up to the anime. It may be bad, but it's worth more than a couple still images that pop up every now and then, and I'm not referring to the manga, in case someone misinterprets that line. Spoiler:

...... How nice of you to give us that visual. I have no frame of reference for Valkyria Chronicles, so I have no idea just how bad it supposedly is. I haven't played the game (don't have a console to play it on) and I didn't take an interest in the anime, because it's very rare that I get interesting in RPG fantasy game based anime.

Well, since someone, once the latest chapter was released, and asked why we haven't seen Tsukune's training sessions with Inner Moka lately, well maybe that's, because the author is planing for Tsukune to have a big fight soon (probably with someone from Fairy Tail ) and wants to keep us in suspense, by not reveling Tsukune's current strength. so that his coming fights won't become a bit too predictable in their outcome.

Well, still it would be nice if he learned something new, I just don't think it's very probable for Tsukune to learn the techniques Gin or Miyamoto use. I would like to be wrong, but I just don't see it going that way. And, most importantly do you think that Inner Moka is going to allow Tsukune to train under someone else as her. It's probably the only way she can deepen her relationship with Tsukune. And if not then what is your take on this. For me Tsukune's training isn't just making him stronger it helps him unstertand Inner Moka more and it's not like the Headmaster is allowing Inner Moka to have the Belmont whip all the time, and if we take what she said during her date with Tsukune, it's not like she can make Tsukune take of her Rosario whenever she wants. And I don't think that Inner Moka hasn't got some techniques of her own. It's just that she isn't using them, well I mean what would you call this, I think it qualifies as a technique doesn't it. |
