Muv-Luv Alternative Anime Series Will Air on Crunchyroll

Anime streaming service Crunchyroll announced that it will air the highly-anticipated Muv-Luv Alternative anime series this fall.

Debuting in October, the anime is based on the visual novel bearing the same name, considered by many (yours truly included, and proudly so) the best visual novel of all time and one of the best sci-fi stories ever written.

You can enjoy the trailer (which originally debuted in May) below.

If you’re interested in the Muv-Luv franchise in general, during recent events we saw the reveal of the official title of Muv-Luv Resonative (which is the continuation of The Day After), the announcement of Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse, and new gameplay and details for Project Mikhail.

A few months ago, we also heard the much-awaited announcement that Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (also known as Rumbling Hearts) will finally be released in English.

For additional information, you should definitely read our interview with the series’ creator Kouki Yoshimune and producer Kazutoshi Matsumura, alongside our semi-recent chat with Kitakuou about Project Immortal.
