Muv luv alternative sumika h scene4/1/2024 Unlimited may start off slow, but it plays an important role in establishing the characters and their personalities in greater detail, making you get used to and grow attached to them by the time Alternative’s plot switches to full gear. Besides, it’s a pretty good story just on its own, and is relatively short to boot, so I see little reason to rob yourself of the experience it provides. Even if you do end up skipping Extra, which I can understand, I feel that Unlimited is an absolute must-play for the full enjoyment of Alternative. It is true that everything that happens in this story is basically just a set-up for Alternative, but I feel it is just as important and therefore shouldn’t be missed. As I’ve implied above, this is going to come as a complete 180. What makes the first Muv-Luv special is its second story: Unlimited. In fact, Meiya’s route alone makes the later half of Extra a sufficiently pleasant experience if you don’t outright hate the romance/harem genre with a fiery passion. Frankly, it does actually start off pretty bad in its first half, but ends up being fairly decent when the romcom hijinks take the backseat in the final few hours and a bit of romance/drama takes its place. However, after going into it with an open mind, I honestly thought it wasn’t *that* horrible, as long as you focus solely on its two main heroines. I’ll agree that it is by far the weakest entry in the series, and if you have a low tolerance for its genre in general, you *will* find it pretty bad. Seeing everything that happens in Extra, only to have the rug completely pulled out from under you by the first 20 or so minutes of Unlimited was a very cool experience in itself, and well worth sitting through some of the not-so-good bits of its predecessor. I felt that going through Extra made the subsequent events of Unlimited a lot more personal, and the main character easier to sympathize with. In all honesty I can’t quite agree with that. The other reason is that the general consensus on Extra seems to be that it’s an absolute garbage of a VN. People will often tell you to skip the first two stories and go right to Alternative – one reason for this is because that’s when the real story begins. The reason I’m reviewing all three at once is because the three stories are all very much connected and should optimally be read in the order mentioned above, starting with Extra. So all in all it’s basically a trilogy, consisting of Extra-Unlimited-Alternative, in that order. Alternative is a sequel to the previous two. The former consists of two stories, Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Unlimited, which unlocks after beating Extra. The VNs I’m about to discuss are actually two games: Muv-Luv and Muv-Luv Alternative. So first off, let’s quickly go over the basics. Opening (Alternative) – also known as “the best VN opening in the history of ever” Despite that, I’m going to attempt to give my thoughts on this series in a semi-coherent way. Even answering questions as basic as “how can a VN be both romcom and mecha war story at the same time” would ruin some of the initial surprises of the story. Writing a spoiler-free article about Muv-Luv is not the easiest of tasks.
