Also since I’m biased like that I’ll do a picture talk on how my love-hate relationship is with TE. I’ll try and rid myself of bias while talking about TE Anime, keyword try, so just keep that little thing in mind. Now, before I continue in earnest, let me warn you that I’m a massive Muv-Luv fan. Alongside him are two Soviet pilots, Cryska Barchenowa and Inia Sestina, Yui Takamura, the XFJ Project head, and his teamates Valerio Giacosa, Tarisa Manandal, Stella Bremer and his long-time friend, Vincent Lowell. Yuuya, a half-American, half-Japanese with his latter side being a subject of extreme touchiness, is thus placed in a situation where he has to confront both his heritage and his past, and learn about the world beyond the shores of the USA. Yuuya himself has been assigned to the XFJ Project, a plan organized by the Empire of Japan (yes, not Japan, but the EoJ) to improve their own third-generation TSF, the Type-94 Shiranui. This base borders the portion of Alaska leased to the Soviet Union (yes, Soviets, not Russians), and as such both the Soviets, the Americans and the United Nations use the base as a gathering point for Project Prominence, a plan enacted by the United Nations to encourage multinational cooperation in the development of new TSFs. Therefore, humanity has been constantly improving their warfighting potential and their technology in the hopes of one day reclaiming everything that they have lost.Ģnd Lieutenant Yuuya Bridges, a TSF pilot of the US Army, has been assigned by his superiors to Yukon Base, located in Alaska. However, the BETA’s numbers are such that even the invention of the TSF, which allowed humanity to equal their footing against the BETA, were unable to gain any leverage or advantage against them for the next 30 years. Faced with the prospect of total annihilation due to a variety of reasons, mankind has been combating the BETA with giant bipedal robots known as Tactical Surface Fighters, or TSFs for short.
TE is a sidestory in the world of Alternative where humanity has been ravaged by a 30-year war with aliens known as BETA, across the Eurasian, Middle-East and Asian continents.
To know more, you can go to the Muv-Luv Wiki. To sum it all up, Muv-Luv takes place across three and/or more worlds, and Alternative is one of the major ones.
#MUV LUV BETA VS BLADE SERIES#
Total Eclipse (let me shorten it to TE for ease) is set in the world of Alternative, one of the three universes featured in the Muv-Luv series proper. There’s been minor things like Akane Maniax, an OVA sequel to Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, that the characters from Muv-Luv have made an appearance in (and the lesser-known Ayu-Mayu Gekijou, that’s another tale for another day), but Total Eclipse is the first series set within a Muv-Luv universe. Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse is the Muv-Luv series’ first foray into animation.
