As someone who has heard of this game since 2015 I know that this game has gone a long way and then it got an anime adaptation this 2022. To be clear I have neither played this game nor have read any literature of the game itself so I am practically blind on this series. Also spoilers ahead if people have decided to read this review without any prior knowledge of this show or the game itself. Youve been warned. This show focus itself first to the ARteam who was lead by M4A1 who is a competent leader but is an inexperienced in commanding her team. The other part of the show focuses on the newbie commander named Gentiane who is good at tactics and knows a lot of minute details when it comes to handling unexpected situations. When ARteam has been cornered by the enemy forces Griffin came to their rescue and one by one they managed to defeat the enemy forces... If this show just focused on that aspect I wouldnt mind it at all as I have no knowledge to put as a basis for this show and likewise it would be an entertaining factor for me since I knew nothing about what I am watching itself. But even with those restrictions I somehow managed to guess the flow of the story in the end. To put it bluntly this show... while this show has its decent parts... most of the times I feel like that its either lacking or totally bad. Another thing I hate is the characters. M4A1 hesitates a lot and to the extent of sometimes almost harming the operation itself AR15 acts suspicious most of the times that it was so obvious. I was not surprised at all when the plot twist happened as I have already seen how much they had dragged. M16 acts like she knows it all but in the end she didnt do much at all... like she was totally holding herself back to the enemies. Also whats up with the big gun on her back? When will she be able to use that? When her teammates are dead? In the end I think M16 holds back too much to the detriment of her team too. SOP II on the other hand asides from her being childish I have no complains and SOP II is the best character in the AR team for this anime what a letdown. The enemy team has their own BS too. There was one episode where I believe the enemy is carrying an elite squad but M4A1 defeated every elite soldier like they were just some rookies. Also I still dont like the fact that Sangvis didnt even send a whole platoon just to capture M4A1 given in the latter parts of the story she was sought after by Sangvis themselves. Man what a waste of potential given they can field absurd number of troops in no time. The last arc which was AR15s arc was fine but certainly It felt that AR15 has set her expectations that she will not get back alive and she did but at what cost? I do understand that her heroic action is just there to delay Sangvis plan which was successful but... was it really worth it? Ill leave it up to the readers to decide if that was worth it. In my end I find it not worth it and it was just for shock value and forcing the plot to progress. In the end Gentiane was pushed in the sidelines as it was all about the ARteam in the end and what can I say I was honestly bored out of it. As someone who hasnt played the game itself or read any related literature I should have been more lenient but in the end... I was not into it anymore but since I had to finish it I just finished it like what I always do to shows that made me lost the will to continue engaging. Is this show worth your time? Definitely a no. Likewise Go play the game instead you wont be disappointed. My Score: 4/10 Just skip this show altogether.
