You know a show's going to be unique when they put boobs on buildings.
As much fanservice as there is in here, I found the action to be very well animated as well. I really applaud them for not hiding the Yuri elements. I will definitely be checking this out.

I like fan service but GL/yuri type is not really my thing.

From the name "Valkyrie Drive" and the cover pic



I thought it was a good series-- until i saw the video clip

eh-- nothing to see for me

moving on...


I agree dude. I thought that the protagonist would be a guy and since the poster is kinda like from a SAO scene, I expect some action but...... I never though that this would turn out like $%@#.

I love when hentai artists do anime, I love it even more when the anime has nudity.

Laughing BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! Laughing

This is all a parody, right?! Right?!?! Huh? No really, this is one, isn't it?

Heck, I'm not even sure I'm joking. Nearly every possible source of titillation seems crammed into it on full display: yuri, phallic symbols, twincest, big breasts, reasonably-sized breasts, jiggling, pokies, mature/statuesque-bodied girl x petite-bodied girl paring, etc.…

It looks too perfectly ridiculous for it not to be, but I would not give anyone in the fanservice business that much credit, either. Either way, barring the unexpected, this actually exists. Razz

^Everything you could ever expect from this project, right here…

Also, I expect nothing less from a director with a resume like Kaneko's…

Looks like awful puerile trash spawned directly from the kind of mind who thought Cross Ange was a good idea. Can't wait for the ANN reviewers to tear this show a new one.

and for 90% of actual anime fans and convention goers including yours truly (take a look at the comments here will you) to actually love it, thank you very kindly. By know it should be obvious most people don´t care about what professional reviewers (complainers) think about a show. I watch what I enjoy. Period. I don´t even read them. :O

Is it fine to give constructive criticism about a show, but it is not ok to outright condemn it because of your personal mind that is unable to accept the variety of shows needed for a large fanbase. Give me three reasons why this show seems bad enough for you to call it "puerile trash." And don't give three year old responses like, "Oh, it has homosexuality in it," or ,"Oh, it has a lot of boob jiggles in it."

What a hypocrite. If the fanservice involved a bunch of skinny pale boys in diapers you'd be all over it.

At first I thought that this might be worth watching, based mainly on the artwork in that photo. But having seen about 10 seconds of the preview (which was all I could endure), it looks like complete garbage that I wouldn't feed to a half-starved stray dog. Too bad.

And we have another hypocrite basing opinions off of assumptions and personal mental bias.

Oh yes, I'm really loving the design of the characters and the yuri theme that's present throughout. Smile Here's hoping Valkyrie Drive fares well.
