IMPRESSIONS: Azure Striker Gunvolt (anime)

Posted on February 13, 2017 by Jason Nason

I’ll admit I haven’t had a chance to try either of Inti Creates’ Azure Striker Gunvolt games, though they’ve been on my list for some time. But nevertheless I jumped at the chance to check out their OVA (original video animation) for the series when it was released last week. The anime was originally intended to be released in 2016, but delays pushed back the release to February 9th, 2017.

Having not played either of the two games I wasn’t too sure who the characters were or what was going on exactly, but with the video’s short running time it didn’t really make the anime any less enjoyable to watch. I’m not too sure, but it feels like the anime takes place chronologically in between the two games, based on the story descriptions of the two game.
