The character designs for the upcoming Valkyria Chronicles anime have been made public, and comparing them to the CG originals from the original PS3 RPG (on the left) reveals some subtle changes in style.
Considering the extremely high quality of the anime style graphics in the game (the graphics you see above were used in the actual game as well as in cutscenes), we are left wondering what might have been had they animated it in CG, although of course this would be a rather adventurous step…

Can't really agree with idea of increases moe-ness, the game characters seem to have much more appealing proportions-and hair effects >:D, seeing Isara is bitter-sweet T.T wish she was a playable bonus char or something, she sure is a better shot than welkin hehe
I also noticed a rather flawed drawing of alicia's rifle in the anime...that is, you can't really hold them with the way they're drawn >.< hopefully it'll all look more consistent
looks nice, mihgt consider getting this game afterall.
hmmm. . . not bad. .
make it my "must watch list" then. . . ( _ _)/
Have heard that many enjoyed the game. Since I don't own a PS3 (yet) I haven't tried out the game, but it's seems good. Will check out anime in either case.
If you do get a PS3, Valkyria Chronicles should be the first game you buy, IMHO.
thats exactly what i did lol, bought myself the game and ps3 a week after finding out about the game >:D
Atleast download the demo from PSN and try it out.
I like the anime design too...I'm enjoying the game game aswell...can't wait to see it.
I heart Alicia, and it seems Selvaria's boobs multiplied in size, whatever valkyria chronicles rule
you must not watch that cutscene during the game when you wave her lance, something else besides her faces competes greatly for my attention...
no the size look consistent enough to me.
As long as I get the anime..
I want the game so badly but I don't even have the console...
valkyria chronicles is a pro game. the anime designs look alright, but I like selvaria and alicia better in the game. isara definitely got a moe upgrade however.
The character design in the game looks far more better, imo. The anime version just seems too stereotyped.
If they don't include Dallas in this anime I will be severely disappointed.
SECONED! XD
looking forward to it =3
looking forward towards another game to anime series should be interesting
isara moe~
Wow... those eyes are big! But ill still watch it, VC was a very good game for me.
P.S. Over sized boobs....
Who care what they look like. This anime blows big donkey dongs. I'd rather watch Ayakashi stuck in an endless loop then watch this garbage. The writers cut Welkin's balls off and gave them to Faldio...
I prefered the game the characters seemed fluid and more open whereas in the anime Welkin fell into the typical I'm a dope with some honest virtues to teach FRIENDSHIP SPEECHES YAY.
And Alicia pretty much became the typical bitchy character in the anime :(
The game is much better than the anime. Not only do they have more time to tell the story, but the personality of the baker chick is a lot more interesting in the game.
ANIME is better!
They look pretty good, but Isara looks kind of... Off. Probably the eyes.
Man...I guess I don't really mind what they did with Alicia. It's certainly dramatic, but not in a bad way. Isara, on the other hand, I don't like what they did with her at all.
Welkin seems pretty close, and Faldio's hyper-bish transformation is too funny to hate. Finally, no real complaints about Selvaria. Although for some reason in her anime picture I can just picture her having a huge bow in her hair. Maybe it's the way she's standing.
RUINED! This is why we can't have nice things!
What studio is doing the anime? The coloring style is very reminiscent of FMA.
My god, what is wrong with their lips?
Oh, and huge eyes are HUGE.
Looks failed, boobs are much better in the original
The anime designs look good. When does the anime come out?
April 2009, no fixed day yet.
Anime version looks better, IMO.
the EYES. They're HUGE.
yeah!!its like they dont even exist!specially not on a Japanese anime that has been featuring similar and unique eye art styles ever since astro boy was created right?
(S)He means in comparison to the original designs. I agree, I would have preferred them to be the same size.
The game looked so much better than any of the designs for the anime so far. Glad to see an anime of it, but not so pleased they didnt even try to mimic the style.
Looks pretty good ^__^
I prefer the game version of Selvaria and i need to see more of the animated Alicia.
Compared to the distinctive art style of the game the anime version looks extremely generic. I hope the anime will look fine on its own, but i cant help not liking it when its compared side by side with the game.
Looks good, none the less.
Don't fail me Valkyria anime!!!
Isara's eyes seem so huge...
Yeah, Isara's anime eyes look way too big. I hope they do something about it because I love Isara!
imouto moe ftw
second that
I agree. I's the one thing I'm really irritated about.
Then the generic anime-look is a little disappointing because the game was noted much because of it's unique graphics.
Still, I will watch the anime.
Doesn't look too bad. I'll check this one out.
I think the game looks better, the anime looks so normal and looks like it'd have ALOT of QUALITY in the series.
mmm I'd have to agree that the CANVAS in-game looks more appealing- but can't wait for anime all the same.
not too bad for anime but I wanna see some mechanic
The game character design looks so much more interesting. D:
