Ozawa: I provided Kiohara-san with only textual information such as “long black hair,” and then left the rest entirely up to him to illustrate. The design transformed over time, but the core remained consistent. I wanted to convey a somewhat “disrespectful attitude towards war,” so we progressed with the idea of having a dress as a foundation. Ozawa Takeshi, Producer / Overall Director of “Valkyria: Azure Revolution,” responsible for directing this work. Shimomoto: However, since being overly dismissive wouldn’t be appropriate, we discussed adding gauntlets to the arms and such. Shimomoto Youichi, Art Director of “Valkyria: Azure Revolution,” responsible for overseeing the artistic aspects of this work. Ozawa: Including her growth, I wanted Ophelia’s naivety to be evident in the design as well. Ozawa Takeshi, Producer of “Valkyria: Azure Revolution.” Mikami: Being aware of her talent as a sorceress including her cursed song, within her world, she has a sense that this level of equipment might allow her to go to battle. From the outside, people might think, “No way, that’s totally inadequate!” (laughs). Mikami Keisuke, Concept Planner for “Valkyria: Azure Revolution,” who has designed many attractive characters, including from “Reincarnation Academy.” Valkyria: Azure Revolution Setting Materials Collection, first published on March 11, 2017.
You underestimate war…
Are you saying the princess is a little brat?
>>2Because of your talent, you were a bit arrogant, right?
If an attack doesn’t hit, then it doesn’t matter.
If it were tights, it wouldn’t give off the feeling of underestimating war, so changing the setting was the right decision.
Well, if you’re not underestimating war, you wouldn’t wear a dress and go to the front lines.
It’s not that I’m looking down on it or anything; I wonder if it comes from the ignorance of someone who grew up in the city, imagining life in the countryside.
I almost died in the first match and reflected on it, so it could also be seen as youthful folly.
Were you not showing your pants for the sake of the heel field…?
Are you sure you can handle that equipment?
>>10It’s okay.
No problem.
From the outside, it’s like “No, that’s totally not good!”Is everyone else feeling normal?
>>12If you know it’s not good, then why don’t you stop with the princess…?
Since there are no people around wearing heavy armor, the basic focus for clothing is on ease of movement.
Since childhood, she has been presenting songs to the public and has been cherished and loved as a “songstress,” serving as a symbol of the country.
As a member of the royal family, I take pride in my responsibilities and hold a strong affection for the country and its people.
Because of their innocence, they did not understand the essence of war, and due to their serious nature, there were times when they were overwhelmed by the difference between ideals and reality in battle.
Because of living in the royal household, they are out of touch with common sense, and sometimes make unexpected remarks that surprise their AV team members.
Contrary to their slender appearance, they are a big eater who enjoys eating anything and has no likes or dislikes.
I often wondered if heavy armor, which narrows my field of vision, really had any meaning.
AV squad!?
She is very serious and hard-working, but as a sheltered girl, there are some areas where she is a bit out of touch with common sense.
Such a princess.
I saw the serious princess’s underwear, who is ignorant of the world…
>>20From the princess’s perspective, there may not even be a concept of shame in being seen in her underwear.
However… the soldiers’ morale will rise because the princess is coming to the front lines in this form…
>>21No way, I can’t take this anymore…
It’s the pride of the country.
I’ve been fighting in this outfit for nearly a year and have returned unscathed at the end of the war.
Although I thought everyone around me was wrong, the princess’s choice of outfit was indeed correct.
It seems like it would be good for the royal family to handle supply units or internal affairs from the back.
I’m just a 17-year-old girl, so I don’t really understand politics that much…
Why!!
Why are you always so bold in such strange directions!?
I was supposed to become the captain of the knights, and I’m taking precautions with a skilled bodyguard.
◆The Truth about Omitting Spats and the PS Vita Version — Regarding the issue of Ophelia’s spats being omitted… Mikami: Well, what can I say (laughs). Naturally, there was discussion among us like, “Are they spats!?” However, in “Valkyria Chronicles 2,” she wore “combat bloomers,” so we had her wear spats for the time being. When we released the demo, we received responses in the survey asking, “Spats!?” Ozawa: There were various discussions within the company, such as about the color of the spats; we discussed options like “black for battlefield realism” and “white for clothing consistency.” Ultimately, we believed that “acceptable spats” should match that outfit… and so, as one of our proposals, we suggested “black spats” in the demo, but we received many opinions from users asking, “Are they spats?” so we reconsidered.
By the way, that bodyguard is the Isara role who dies protecting the protagonist along the way.
Domestic affairs are handled by the king and other royalty…
Is the morale of the citizens really increasing?
>>33If we can only be occupied because we’ve gone too high… doesn’t that mean that the other countries released from that thought are actually the lands that we liberated? This leads to a barbaric way of thinking.
>>34It’s always like that, isn’t it, the allied forces in the Valkyria world!
>>33Before the war, the entire country was gloomy, with an economic blockade preventing the purchase of medicine, leading to elderly people dying from illness. However, thanks to the princess who was giving speeches and actively participating at the front from the very beginning of the war, the mood became more positive and energized.
Was the princess a barbarian…?
>>36In that world, they are quite moderate since they are suppressing domestic opinion to return territory after winning the war and turning the defeated nation into a vassal.
>>38Are you a saint?
I think pants are more comfortable for movement when considering the hips, so it’s probably the right choice.
>>39In the case of the princess, it’s correct because she runs around as a scout.
The enemy side rapidly transformed into an empire in just one year using the power of the Valkyries and was continually invading other countries.
The country of the protagonists who won the war was also on the verge of something like that, but the princess put on the brakes and averted disaster.
I don’t know if you’re underestimating war, but you’re underestimating panty shots.
A princess who raises the morale of the people with her noble undergarments is certainly no saint.
>>44But I don’t think they even dream that their morale is boosted by their own panty shots due to their personality.
In that world, a force field appears beneath your feet when magic (sorcery) is activated.
Every time the magic is activated, the princess’s dress lifts and shows her panties.
>>45What is this setting…?
>>66The occult version of the one where electricity flows and heat is generated by resistance.
Honda Tadakatsu said that he gets injured because he wears heavy armor.
Avoidance type is correct.
>>47Movies like “Seven Samurai” also feature everyone in light clothing for the lower body.
Just say it’s because it’s erotic.
Isn’t it too scary that, from the enemy’s perspective, the important figures from their country are the ones taking the lead in charging forward?
Expressed inner purity and a bright heart with white pants.
It seems that in a manga called Azumi, it was said that being exposed from the waist down, especially the thighs, allows one to detect subtle changes in the battlefield’s atmosphere.
A person wearing white underwear can be trusted.
Sometimes I return from the battlefield after completing my mission and inspire the nation in the royal palace, so I have no choice but to dress this way for convenience.
>>54It’s a murderous schedule.
At the beginning of the war, the situation looked bleak, so even if the princess went to the front lines, there wasn’t enough strength, and there was nothing to be done about it.
>>56The end of the Cat Kingdom.
It’s tough because without the princess, there won’t be any battle to begin with.
>>58If I remember correctly, we will be wiped out without being able to oppose the Valkyria.
Even if you get injured, you can heal with recovery spells including heal fields, so the equipment should be minimal.
READY
The princess, even though she wasn’t ordered to, charged alone into the heart of the enemy army at the beginning, fainted from an explosion, and became a hindrance, but without her, ordinary people would die from exhaustion due to the Valkyrie’s magic, and even the team members with cursed weapons would be affected by debuffs, making it an unwinnable situation.
>>63Is it Satsuma?
The only game I can think of where Maaya Sakamoto is doing big breasts is this one.
Every time I use magic, does my skirt have to flip up like this in this world?
>>68To prevent a panty flash, even the other team members wear spats under their mini skirts.
I’ve been seeing a lot of threads about the Valkyria series lately; is a sequel going to be released?
It seems a new title for Virtua has been developed, and SEGA’s internal structure has changed quite a bit, but what about Valkyria?
Is it only the princess with a spirit of service…?
Are you willing to bet your life on a woman wearing spats?
