Valvrave the Liberator - General Anime Discussion

[Benigmatica]

I know it's kinda off-topic, but can anyone make a counterpart between Valvrave and Madoka Magica. I know that Haruto is Madoka and L-Elf is Kyubey, but what about the others?

Why don't you put youself in her shoes? It's pretty understandable to have some obsession about money or fame if you have a past like her. And she's showing a kind of attidute like "Anything is fine, I just don't care anymore".

Shoko is more amusing than Saki. She's not upset at Saki. Shoko doesn't show any jealousy about Haruto and Saki's relationship. Haruto is Shoko's childhood friend, and she's ready for his love confession. Maybe Shoko is a Saint or a Guru.

The only thing I find Shoko amusing is her weird reasoning. It's not like Shoko doesn't show jealousy, she just doesn't know anything about Haruto and Saki's relationship (note how she reacted to the word "kiss"). And I won't call her Saint or anything. She was borned with a silver spoon, I bet she doesn't know what hardship or unhappiness is. See how she couldn't do anything when something went wrong like in episode 4.


Randomc's analyses are pretty much what I feel too. You can read it if you want or just believe in want you want to believe.

You know, the robot descriptions from the official site make it really obvious who the pilots for the remaining 3 VVVs are:

-Yellow VVV is specialized in brute-force and handling equipement; it's huge arms can also be used to build stuff.
-Green VVV specializes in mobility, it is the fastest Valvrave.
-Blue VVV is the defense-type Valvrave that specializes in fighting from a long range.
-Purple VVV is the "sensor nerve" Valvrave, it isn't for fighting, but its powers can reveal everything in the battle field and it can unveil the Universe itself.

It's impossible that the pilots are anyone other than these 4 (well, Saki is already confirmed):

Spoiler:

I don't know why but I've really enjoyed the last two episodes, maybe because there's been more focus towards the characters than the ridiculous plot/setting. I don't think I've ever seen a character display so much reckless behaviour and yet come off as a surprisingly down to earth portrayal as a normal dumbass teenager. And in a strange way it was also kind of endearing because I could easily imagine myself being that stupid as well. I just wish the story went all the way in showing how much she was way over her head on this one. She didn't have to die but a defeat would've been better with Haruto saving her ass.

What is the connection between blue and Inuzuka?

It wouldn't be the same and Shoko can sniff out a fake rather easily if she gets to know L-Elf first.

Blue seems like a toss up still.

The nerd could still pilot it as much as Haruto's friend who most likely will die because someone close to Haruto has to die... Right?

Better him than Shoko I say!

OP appearance order; they appear like this: Saki -> Kyuuma -> Thunder -> Akira. Since Saki is the pilot of Green and Thunder and Akira are obviously the pilots of Yellow and Purple, it makes sense for Kyuuma to get Blue.

its odd that sunrise made a female as one of the main pilots because in the gundam series all the main pilots are males

Times are changing!

Diversity is always a good thing!

Or maybe they're jelly of Fafner having so many female pilots that can actually fight.

not at all actually soma peires, katagina, marida cruz, and ayase shinomiya(guilty crown) all female and all one of the main pilots of their series, they may not pilot gundams (well one did) but they are one of the main pilots of there series

[Haak]

Guilty Crown is not Sunrise although it's main writer is heavily associated with it.

[playmaker2k]

Don't forget Kallen.

Sunrise also made Code Geass which had female Mecha Pilots.
Also, didn't Gundam 00 have female pilots as well?

Okouchi is also the main writer and co-creator for Code Geass and of course in season 1, you had multiple women pilots.

[shadow1296]

i didn't realise this this was done by sunrise but all the pilots in this series were female

Idolmasters xenoglossia(yes i know its horrible)

[christinemarie]

VV1 Haruto Tokishima (confirmed)
VV2 *Enemy has it*
VV3 Raizo Yamada (Sooner or later he would pilot this awesome VV3 that is power oriented if not for the possible Negima-like plot I just discovered.)
VV3 Shoko Sashinami
VV4 Saki Rukino (confirmed)
VV5 L-elf (I want to see L-elf kiss Haruto and make Valrave-tan acknowledge L-elf.)
VV6 Akira Renbōkoji (I doubt being voiced by Aoi Yuuki won't make Sunrise turn Akira into a Valrave user herself base from the site the abilities of VV6 matches Akira's technique very well.)

What I love with this series are the antagonist that features Jun Fukuyama and Mamoru Miyano.

He's trying to make sure if it's really safe for him to pilot a Valvrave

he's not doing nothing, he's been gathering info and formulating a plan, his last few plans have failed for lack of info, when he tried to steal valvrave from haruto, he was possessed and is now labeled traitor, tried to bring the students over to his side he didn't realize the influence shoko had, so right now he is gathering all the info he can, like who can pilot the valvraves so he can continue his dorssia revolution plan
