Muv-Luv Creator Talks About the Message Behind the Games, Meiya, Sumika, and More

Today Muv-Luv publisher Anchor released a video providing interesting information for the fans of the series. 

The video is the translated version of part of a livestream aired a few days ago in which the series’ creator Kouki Yoshimune answered questions from the fans.

We hear some rather deep discussion about the message behind the Muv-Luv series, on top of the heroines Meiya Mitsurugi and Sumika Kagami. 

Funnily, Yoshimune-san mentions the inspiration from mangaka Rumiko Takahashi (known for Urusei Yatsura, Maison Ikkoku, Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha, and more) and more.

You can check out the whole video below.

If you want to learn more about the Muv-Luv series, we recently saw new gameplay of the new Muv-Luv action game Project Mikhail, Muv-Luv Unlimited The Day After was announced for the west, and the Muv-Luv Alternative manga was also announced coming digitally in English.

Muv-Luv Photonmelodies is also coming later this month, and you can check out a gallery of screenshots and videos.
