As a USAF pilot I’m complete nerding out right now … The one American pilot at the end, his Silver mech is an obvious nod to our real F-22 Raptors- I love this as they used so many details in their mechs ❤😅 idk what this show is yet, but it looks awesome and it’s dope how they took so much inspiration from the real thing. 1) The mech’s chest area is made to look similar to the nose of the F22, and also includes very similar intakes on either side. 2) (maybe my favorite part b/c they even thought of it) On the back of the mech’s body and tail/legs area (not positive if it was near the legs or attached to back of legs), they use the same exact shape of stabilizers that our F22 has, and similar type of thrust thrusters we use (the “jet” engines). It looks like the back of the legs have our horizontal stabilizers, and his back has our vertical stabilizers right above the propulsion system these guys use, which as mentioned also looks just like the F22’s thrust vectoring nozzles for the engine. To pull it all together, the placement is even correct in my mind 😁 (horizontals them engines then verticals. Oh and the fact that each leg has one (2 total) and there is 2 on his back is even correct as the f22 does have twin vertical stabilizers. 3) Even little things like the particular slopes and angles the F22 uses to help with the radar cross section is pretty accurate.. And I even noticed they use the similar hexagonal shapes and similar pattern design on the mech that the F22 has on its skin. Even uses the 2 US Air Force National Star logos found on many planes in the Air Force in the mech’s chest. I’m sure there’s more but just what I noticed from this clip… Love this so amazing 😅 Edit: Apparently this is an anime called Muv-Luv Alternative which I will now be binge watching lol.
Yes, they most likely took a CG model of an F22 Raptor and for the most part just chopped and rearranged it a bit over a TSF base frame..filled in and molded some parts..(pretty easy work flow) and it looks great..I find myself doing similar with my own models at times.
@@comentnine1574 *I'm thinking the other* (F-22) *is the plane, the mech is presumably the F22.* *_I don't really know since I haven't watched this, and Google is much more reliable than me._*
A big part of that is probably due to the fact that they don't have to constantly fight the Beta while everyone else run themselves into the ground. They already nuked the Beta that landed in Canada into oblivion and the only way they can make it over from the rest of the world is over the Bering Straight which is easily defended. That's why they are able to put their focus into an anti-TSF machine. They are already making themselves ready to take over the world once the Beta threat has been dealt with.
0:30 Stealth. This is part of why the actual F-22 is feared. It has been able to get into close visual range to eyeball what gear a non-friendly plane is packing and call the neutral pilots to surprise the heck out of them.
What else would it be represented by? Isn't that kinda the point of the USAF? that and maybe intelligence gathering? Our 5th gen fighters are pretty sick, I hear. We have air superiority basically everywhere. Bc our equipment is the best and our pilots are good and the best trained. The largest airforce in the world? The USAF. The second largest airforce in the world? The US Navy. Bc carrier strike groups are still the deadliest thing in global policing, but the USAF can kill watch your wife skinny dipping with your 20 yr old neighbor and record it from 80k ft in the air using a silent, nearly invisible, drone that can stay aloft indefinitely (though it needs to be refueled every 18 to 24 hours). It has super advanced camo tech that uses cameras and tiny LED monitors to appear invisible to anything short of a very careful investigation. it flies slow - lile 80 knots - to be quiet and if it does ping radar, it will be seen a glitch, noise, or maybe some geese (that are flying 60k ft higher than normal...) Telescopic lense, it can tell me if the carpet matches the drape, confirming that yo momma is turning grey. It's got all kindsa crazy remote sensing capabilities and can tell difference between a racoon and cat. Again, from 80k ft in the air. In broad daylight or middle of a moonless night
TSF Raptor Pilots: "Sir is it really necessary for us to speak English in a Japanese accent over the open comms?" "YOU SHUT IT PRIVATE, YOU'LL RUB SALT IN THE WOUND AND LIKE IT"
It's explained in the VN, the US military uses a lot of immigrants in their military because they're expendable and won't cause discontent at home. The immigrants are fine to be used as cannon fodder because it's a chance to move to North America which is the safest continent.
just to add a bit of lore, fighter aircrafts did exist until the BETA deprived humanity of its air superiority, and the first pilots of the TSFs were actual fighter pilots.
Think of TSFs as an alternate evolution in aviation technology in order to adapt when dealing with zerg-like alien swarms with powerful AA capabilities.
technically the TSF is more viable than the VF-1 due to mechanical complexity reasons ... you have something that's supposed to be flying but is also transforming into a mech and mechs are already very complex to begin with and so are planes, especially fighter planes as they are very unstable to fly especially the 4th Gen ones which in 1 way shape or form relies on onboard computers just to retain stability. And as much of a macross fan i am even i have to admit that the VF-1s and its descendants are very flawed especially the siegfrieds from delta...
The coolest part of this animation is, that’s exactly how a dogfight with an F-22 would go in real life. They were designed to be nearly invisible to radar. Even the most advanced radar in the whole world can’t actually track the F-22 as while it can detect the F-22 the radar cross section is so small, that actually tracking it is by radar is so close to impossible that most countries don’t even try. Instead, they employ state of the art motion tracking drone and satellite networks that track by sight. And even then. You almost never know an F-22 is there until it’s far too late. Truly an absolute beauty of technological advancement.
That is not how it works. Dogfighting is no longer viable since turn fighting slows down the airframe to be very vulnerable to missiles. Since late 1980s, the US prioritizes in BVR combat. The F-22 maneuverability is not meant for dogfighting(offense) but for survivability when missile locked or in very rare occasions where engagement is in canon range(defense). Current US air-superiority manuals dictate that a units prioritizes in engaging in BVR and then scoot afterwards
Russian fighters like the Su-35 Su-57 and Mig-35 are not inferior to the f-22 in any way, and in some things they are superior, plus there is no denying the skill of Russian pilots who show such tricks that make the hair stand on end
@@alexmeid8111 Yeah... a real terror, we've seen Su-35's getting shot down over Ukraine and Russia refuses to send in the Su-57 out of fear of the same thing.
@@johnmcmillan5606 those same downed Su-57s that were actually Ukrainian fighters that were shot down by the Ukrainian air defense, believing that these were Russian fighters
@@johnmcmillan5606 my question is if the F-22 and F-35 are such invincible fighters, then why do many countries buy Russian fighters? maybe because they are cheaper and in no way inferior to the latest US fighter jets
I think its a mediocre one. The controls aren’t as snappy and responsive as I hoped. They are trying to fix it with each update but the feeling isn’t there for me…
F22 looking mechas are so beautiful like the plane itself that inspired them The artist who designed the F22 and YF23 is a real genius. Artistry matters despite if it is in a vehicle or a combat plane.
Jet fighters are pretty much the last remaining bastion of the mythos of battle. The fighter pilots are essentially modern knights, they are often depicted as the honorable heroes. And while aircraft are designed with practicality in mind they are also designed with a distinct aesthetic. The idea of striking fear into your opponent with your appearance is lost in most all other styles of warfare. There's something to be said about making something that is effective and looks cool/intimidating.
Bizarre franchise. Started as a high school romcom then suddenly isekaid into high stakes serious sci-fi military. My guess is they wanted to ride the romcom hype but failed, so they instead rode the mecha hype.
I mean, I know that back in the day when shows like Gundam were a thing the mecha had a huge association with fighter jets. It certainly isn’t a stretch for this series
While not overly familiar with the genre due to lack of accessibility as a youth, from what I've seen, Gundam doesn't transform, but the Mechs from Macross do from a F-14-esque plane.
@@dysjsg7dbs726 a lot but sadly they evolve into cannon fodder and became less memorable like the ReZel, Flag and M1 Astrays. There's like 3 main transformable gundams Zeta, Wing and Kyrios and its variations but aside from that they're grunt units that features a robot being folded into a more aerodynamic mode or the plane origami-looking ones that merge into with other parts forming a gundam like Victory, Impulse and RX-78
@@treebush His wingman was an CIA agent and secretly disabled the Squad leader weapon before he died, it came into effect just before the squad leader died to the samurai guy.
This was the combat debut of F-22 in Muv-luv Alternative. After this battle the world came to know the US/USAF technological prowless and the power of F-22. Most of them including Japan tried to get their hand on F-22 but like our real world counterpart they made a law prohibiting the export of F-22 and it related equipment/tech.
@@Boomkokogamez yeah imagine if the us in that world gave Japan and the other countries that fighter the beta would against them and I can’t wait to see the F18,F35,F16,F15, and the A10 in this amine imagine what they could be
That was the US' choice among it had cheaper operating costs compared to the YF-23 Black Widow. Which also was stealthy and it was more specifically designed to combat in BETA hives, even in close combat with melee weapons. The Black Widow also doesn't follow US combat doctrine of being 99% ranged combat only in MLA.
Also, the geopolitical situation in MLA was really bad. There was much resentment towards the US and they knew when the BETA were defeated, humans will go to war with whomever is left with whatever scraps.
I love this scene... obviously what gives credence to how great the enemy is, is the pilots shock and fearful reactions. But then also the fact that an elite troupe mobbed up a small militia sized force... and didnt lose a single soldier or even more than that... had 0 casualties! (Means no injured not just dead)
@@thanthongsupawiwattakut Well actually the TSF are suppose to be like super f$cking hard to pilot and the pilot has to pre input or even pre program some orders on the fly. So if somehow you are able to out pass the aim assistance, then you can be out of the place where the machine was programed to shot before it shots, so in teory an insanely skillful pilot could pull it out, however the F22 is suppose to be a top notch machine, with higher sensitivity, better sensor and in this scene the F22 pilot was suppose to be equally skillful and trained in TSF to TSF combat, also the F22 is actually an anti TSF specialized unit (it is also more than capable to fight against the BETA, but is designed for anti TSF combat).
sadly there hasn't been a war in the past 20 years involving a country with airplanes to get the f-22 involved in, so the simulations will be all we have for the stats of this plane (besides balloons)
The Raptor was animated really well, but all it has done is get me itchy to see the rest of the big three TSFs animated like this. I'm sure we'll get more of the Takemikazuchi in action in season 2, all thats next is the USSR's Newtype Su-47. That's going to be crazy and glorious.
we wont get the su47 or any from other anime series of muv luv universe. what we do and will get however is imperial knight from warhammer 40k (aka gen 1 TSF the A6 intruder). and a lot of shiranui action
TSF pilots are considered the elite of the elite, because not only you need skills and a lot of preparation but also your body should be able to resist the G forces and all the physical stress that the machine can cause in your body, most humans can't do it despite any training, so actually the pilots are more valuable than the machine, even if the battle is lost usually almost suicidial operations can be launch to rescue a pilot, if possible. This is one the reason why the main character was so upset with all the situation, that day died many seasoned pilots and many good machines in great shape were destroyed, basically humanity was doing Beta's work for themselves. I think that the anime wasn't able to show why Takeru was so mad about the situation, from his point of view, all the thing was wasteful, pointless and stupid. He is more or less right, however in muv luv there is always this tension between whats mean being a human and what is necessary to fight against the BETA.
Okay I don't know anything about this show. But the robot designs remind me of Armored Core, and the "cockpit" Zone of The Enders (especially the shot at 0:55). So this is something interesting I stumbled upon.
@@comentnine1574 (possible spoilers) Okay so I saw the first episode. I did not expect the monster extra-terrestial invasion. Story seems interesting, the character artstyle I'm not a fan off (I checked the shows background and it seems to be part a bigger franchise from 2003, so good for them keeping some of the artstyle similar for the fans). Monster design is creepy which is a plus.
@@chazqui6205 One thing I think was neat is that they provided context to a event that was only mentioned later in the original game, that being the invasion of…that island to the north of Japan.
this is actually based on pretty good and old visual novels series called muv luv this one being adaptation from the original muv luv alternative already exist a anime of the game called muv luv alternative total eclipse and it's prequel schwarzesnarken
Design wise the closest one are definitely PS3 era NEXT But NEXT is basically TSF on steroid, if anyone think F-22 Raptor in this scene is fast, boy... a Next can casually spam a mach 1 dash whenever it want Firepower and protection clearly unmatched to TSF, you need to compared a NEXT to massive Susanoo
Ironically enough it is the reverse. Very much so the reverse. Muv Luv, the visual novel, came out in 2003. While Alternative was made in 2006 the mechanical designs very much were present for the first game, the company just didn't have the time and money to make them. Soviet and European TSFs were probably made later ofc. Muv Luv generally has way more influence on the anime industry and Japanese authors than you'd think. All You Need Is Kill (award-winning novel adapted into Edge of Tomorrow) is very Muv Luv inspired. Even Isayama claims he was strongly inspired by the plot of Muv Luv while writing Attack on Titan. Of course these both are separate from the cool mech fights and lean more on how the visual novel's plot was.
I love the muv luv visual novels and the mech animation in this adaptation is pretty damn good but shame the story doesn't play out too well. But that was kinda expected with them adapting only the third part of a trilogy. Granted there really wasn't much of a choice in that matter.
I like to think it’s because most fans have seen the VN enough times so that it’s hard seeing the same story from a different perspective if that makes any sense.
@@comentnine1574 well for me I think the story needs some rewriting. Such as the first ep being about operation Lucifer to introduce captain sagiri to help build up to the coup. And maybe half way then they repel a beta attack add him into it to demonstrate his capabilities and use that as well to introduce the Valkyries squad earlier. Maybe cut out some of the school like stuff with tama's dad and the exercise on the island as there no build up to them going to the island. Essentially u think they should have streamlined things a bit and focus on certain areas more to help build up to story moments. Even if it means changing the story a little bit.
@@comentnine1574Respectfully, if you're a VN fan I don't really see any reason to watch the anime as you already have the og source (ie. the better one) other than to see the mech fights. If anything this was a good opportunity to grab new fans attention to the franchise. It being a mecha genre doesn't really help either since it wasn't the most popular genre back then
@@keevanalrasyidumar5450 I kind of agree to an extent. Most of the people who watched it were probably already fans, but I'm also wondering how high their hopes were for an anime series of a 40 hour VN with also two whole other games worth of context BEFORE it.
@@bransonallen2925 Well as all of us already pointed out Alternative is the only way to go what's with Extra and Unlimited don't seem to garner much demand (though I'm positive it's execution of the Isekai trope would be a fresh air in this saturated market). If anyone's to blame it's really just ourselves to set up the unrealistic standard. With that out of the way, in my opinion, the pacing of the episodes are too fast (though that's a common problem with animes), and a lot the details regarding Takeru's original world, his journey of the past, and his relationships with his classmate (that's already reduced compared to Unlimited since he focused in Alternative IV) get cut off too much in the anime. I also didn't notice this for the first time but while they change a lot of the character's hair they also change the design of the head piece from the pilot suit that the previous adaptations, wich are Schwarsesmarken and Total Eclipse, never did. The last two are a very minor complain but I can't see behind their reasoning. Honestly though, I'm still happy with what we got. If you change the media of an entertainment you would certainly deal with the upside-downside of said media, thus at the same time give you limitations and liberty unique to each media. This is a common recurring problem that I can't see the solution. Besides, anime adaptations nowadays are just an advertisement to the orginal's work so adapting it 100% accurate is simply not the main objective in the first place. They manage to express what can't be done in the VN and I'm satisfied with the executions.
A dogfight with an F-22 Raptor would be worse cause missiles locked can be achieved without sight, so the first few would be hit before it even appears.
Super neat detail when the F-22 was first introduced in Episode 9...?, they all flew in a column formation to reduce RCS. Like that shit was cool as fuck
@@AsiagoMatteo It wasn’t the Major was just outmatched by the Captain because Major Walkin didn’t have enough experience to make the maximum use out of the F22, though I wouldn’t put it pass the CIA either.
@@AsiagoMatteo it was implied that this entire coup was a CIA backed op to draw out and eliminate all subversive elements in the Japanese government and military. Note that in the Muv Luv history, Japan had more or less protested and wanted the US leave right up until the BETA began invading the island, which was when they started to complain about the US leaving them for dead. The US didn't, and had several unofficial, non sanctioned missions where entire US battalions stayed to buy time for evacuation.
@@Mariner797 so in this anime, the Japanese aren't the omnipotent good guys unlike in GATE? at least from the way you described it, they were to blame for the mess they're in but they keep blaming the US regardless...
@@f.b.l.9813 TLDR: Imagine Imperial Japan from WW2 who instead of going pacifist Kawaii culture IRL, still maintained their suicidal, racist ideology of Yamato Damashi. TLDR TLDR: If you squint, it is essentially a mockery of the entire "JAPAN STONK" stuff that GATE is trying to portray. The entire thing is grey, but IIRC in this universe the Satsuma rebellion in 1877 was successful, which meant that the at the time slowly displaced Samurai caste regained their power and privileges. There are a bunch of cooler minds in the Japanese civilian government, but the rebels you see here accused them of treason before killing them. The ones here essentially angry at the US for essentially using them as frontline "fodder" (which isn't really the US's fault because seriously its the BETA) and believe that Japan can push out the US (doubtful) and fend for themselves (despite food shortages, they are still receiving non-insignificant food imports from the US though they are trying to build and open a artificial food processing plant IIRC), and also defend themselves against the BETA (last time they tried they almost got wiped out as the Japanese military was more or less green with only a few pilots with limited experience who fought in China, but were eventually able to stall/slow them up to Yokohama). In the MLA setting, Japan really does not like the US especially since the US pulled out due to their previous experience against the BETA on the European front and previously Lunar front, especially in how they should avoid frontal conflicts, leading to a collapse in the Japanese front line, essentially for all intents and purposes violated their treaty. When the BETA began to rapidly grow a Hive at Yokohama, Japanese, UN, COSEAN (along with unofficial US military support) attacked it first with conventional forces before the US space corp dropped the experimental G-Bomb on it, which is made using G-elements harvested from destroyed BETA hives, which at this point was one in Canada which the US saturation nuked as soon as it landed. Thus the first victory against the BETA since the conflict started for more than 2 decades. Again, Japan did not really like that, especially since afterwards ALT5 plan was announced . (Spoilers, ALT5 plan was a desperation plan and bad). Not sure how much of the setting you know, but the reason why the G-Bomb was developed was to give the bomb a gravitational lensing that would 'deflect' laser fire from the BETA and demolish them with a multi-dimensional blast (people didn't understand it that well). Yokohama base was established to determine the after affects to human habitation. Some spoilers for the aftermath of ALT5, but essentially all the land was transformed into salt plains, the oceans got screwed with some rising above sea level, and the entire Euro-Asia continent sank. Insult to injury, that still didn't kill all the BETA, but now their HIVES are at the bottom of the new oceans and are unreachable.
if you guys enjoyed this. you should try to learn more about the visual novels and their spin offs. there is another GOOD spin off of this universe called schwarzesmarken that happens around "cold war era" there is many TSF based on planes of that era there (like american and soviet ones) give it a try. and if you really like all that stuff definitely try to play the visual novels. there is more indepth to all the information that is available on the anime onlys there.
@@desuwa1994 Love the neat detail, Hope they'll pull some miracle in the production fot the plot and season2 things are just heating up for the tsunami wave😏
To sum up: US Army good, CIA bad. Imperial Guard good, coup d'etat forces bad. UN forces neutral. Alternative IV good, Alternative V bad. (these parties have pawns on all previously mentioned sides)
@@navyseal1689 actually the US in this show is both the good and bad guy depending on the chair commander at the monent... in this clip they are good guys holding the line and supporting main characters escape.
Both series have some things in common. In Muv-Luv there’s character named Kagami Sumika who is probably reference to Sumika Juutilainen and AC4 probably referenced Muv-Luv with Kasumi Sumika because Kasumi is another Muv-Luv character
As a military enthusiast and "geek", I loved the moment I saw their status report, when they spoke in English. Lol it just reminds me of who the top boi is. There's a lot of stuff I could talk about their appearance but the pinned comment already covers that, so yeah...
An F-22 would blow you out of the sky before you even know it's there. It has the radar signature of the balls on a mosquito and you'll barely see a little blip right before it fires it's payload. That's it, the "fight" is over. Lmao Love this anime tho. 😆🤟
So this is highly debated: Its very stealthy against X-band radar, but its not very stealthy at all against L-band radar and the effectiveness of stealth is diminished the closer you get to targets. Combine that with datalinking and ground/air listening systems and stealth is not the be-all-end-all energy doctrine force multiplier it was thought to be unless you pair it with electroptical detection systems so you don't issue any active radar behaviour whatsoever (which of course, defeats your range advantage too so its lose/lose).
The F22 was the inspiration for the Flag mobile suit in Gundam 00 as well, which makes sense, because they come from the Union - the North American treaty nation led by the US. Always loved the design. These are an evolution of that ethos for sure. Stealth, speed, ferocity.
even as someones whos favorite factions in miltary scifi is never the U.S.A. or U.S.A. equivelents, not because of the real life U.S. military sucking but because those factions are typically the most vanilla and hence kinda boring. I think the major issue is that U.S.A. factions are concieved as being kind of just generically overpowered, they have the basics and they have a better version of those basics than everyone else, its not the most innacurate i guess, but it is something that makes for a boring faction, the tutorial faction if you will. with all that said... HOLY SHIT THE F22 IS SO COOL! I LOVE ITS HEAD WITH ITS SPIDER ARRAY OF EYES AND SHARP ANGLES! ITS GOT DUEL MACHINE GUNS THAT IT GANGSTA BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAMS SHIT OTHER TSF WITH AT 340MPH!

They are designed around the same era. F-22A Raptor (as a TSF) was made in 2002-2005 and likely had inspiration from Armored Core 3, Gundam and Evangelion. Armored Core 4's mechs were made around 2003-2006 and took inspiration from Armored Core 3, Evangelion and Gundam. Both are also made in Japan. Another fun fact, Armored Core 4: For Answer has slight nods towards Muv Luv Alternative. One of the characters (from AC4 but not yet given a name) is named after two pivotal characters from Muv Luv.

What I like about Muv Luv is that it doesn't indulge in nationalistic fantasies by making Japan somehow the No1 global super power. The made sure even the best mechs our MC used by the end the story was still inferior to American ones. No asspulls for wish-fulfillment's sake like a lot of right-wing writers often do.

Muv Luv Alternative is the anime. It does have hell bent alien race known as the BETAs but in most Muv Luv animes, it usually focus on the human side of things than fighting those aliens. Like politics and stuff like that. So it just goes into a sort of civil war amongst itselves fighting each other than working together to survive a human extinction level event. The anime does have plot, and I mean booba plot in skintight pilot suits of cute girls and sometimes a single male protagonist that would felt like a harem....sorta. In my opinion, Muv Luv Schwartzmarken is my fave Muv Luv series. Taking place in the 1960s where it's about east and west Germany. East Germany facing the BETAs head on with their high risk TSF mecha squadron. But the anime also plays out the whole secret police-like state when corruption is involved in Muv-Luv Schwartzmarken.
@@AsiagoMatteo that's what I like about it. To me, it felt like a time before everything just advanced more. Well we did get Total Eclipse with that male MC being half and half Japanese American tho in current timeline, I think
Well I did remembered seeing the Total Eclipse 1st episode where the lone female pilot failed to shoot her friend surrounded by BETAs to mercy kill her, but was too shocked to see her friend being eaten alive in front of her. So to me, that counts as head chomping xD

As a USAF pilot I’m complete nerding out right now … The one American pilot at the end, his Silver mech is an obvious nod to our real F-22 Raptors- I love this as they used so many details in their mechs ❤😅 idk what this show is yet, but it looks awesome and it’s dope how they took so much inspiration from the real thing.
1) The mech’s chest area is made to look similar to the nose of the F22, and also includes very similar intakes on either side.
2) (maybe my favorite part b/c they even thought of it) On the back of the mech’s body and tail/legs area (not positive if it was near the legs or attached to back of legs), they use the same exact shape of stabilizers that our F22 has, and similar type of thrust thrusters we use (the “jet” engines). It looks like the back of the legs have our horizontal stabilizers, and his back has our vertical stabilizers right above the propulsion system these guys use, which as mentioned also looks just like the F22’s thrust vectoring nozzles for the engine. To pull it all together, the placement is even correct in my mind 😁 (horizontals them engines then verticals. Oh and the fact that each leg has one (2 total) and there is 2 on his back is even correct as the f22 does have twin vertical stabilizers.
3) Even little things like the particular slopes and angles the F22 uses to help with the radar cross section is pretty accurate.. And I even noticed they use the similar hexagonal shapes and similar pattern design on the mech that the F22 has on its skin. Even uses the 2 US Air Force National Star logos found on many planes in the Air Force in the mech’s chest.
I’m sure there’s more but just what I noticed from this clip… Love this so amazing 😅
Edit: Apparently this is an anime called Muv-Luv Alternative which I will now be binge watching lol.
Dude, you fly an F22... that's awesome! I hope you enjoy Alternative, despite it's rushed plot the mech scenes are very cool.
Yes, they most likely took a CG model of an F22 Raptor and for the most part just chopped and rearranged it a bit over a TSF base frame..filled in and molded some parts..(pretty easy work flow) and it looks great..I find myself doing similar with my own models at times.

A big part of that is probably due to the fact that they don't have to constantly fight the Beta while everyone else run themselves into the ground.
They already nuked the Beta that landed in Canada into oblivion and the only way they can make it over from the rest of the world is over the Bering Straight which is easily defended.
That's why they are able to put their focus into an anti-TSF machine. They are already making themselves ready to take over the world once the Beta threat has been dealt with.

What else would it be represented by? Isn't that kinda the point of the USAF? that and maybe intelligence gathering? Our 5th gen fighters are pretty sick, I hear. We have air superiority basically everywhere. Bc our equipment is the best and our pilots are good and the best trained.
The largest airforce in the world? The USAF. The second largest airforce in the world? The US Navy. Bc carrier strike groups are still the deadliest thing in global policing, but the USAF can kill watch your wife skinny dipping with your 20 yr old neighbor and record it from 80k ft in the air using a silent, nearly invisible, drone that can stay aloft indefinitely (though it needs to be refueled every 18 to 24 hours). It has super advanced camo tech that uses cameras and tiny LED monitors to appear invisible to anything short of a very careful investigation. it flies slow - lile 80 knots - to be quiet and if it does ping radar, it will be seen a glitch, noise, or maybe some geese (that are flying 60k ft higher than normal...)
Telescopic lense, it can tell me if the carpet matches the drape, confirming that yo momma is turning grey. It's got all kindsa crazy remote sensing capabilities and can tell difference between a racoon and cat. Again, from 80k ft in the air. In broad daylight or middle of a moonless night

At first I hate the idea of using real world aircrafts to name the TSFs since I'm an aviation fan, but it works out really good in the end
It works because they take on the "character" of the vehicles in question, often incorporating their quirks and peculiarities in another metaphor.
just to add a bit of lore, fighter aircrafts did exist until the BETA deprived humanity of its air superiority, and the first pilots of the TSFs were actual fighter pilots.
Think of TSFs as an alternate evolution in aviation technology in order to adapt when dealing with zerg-like alien swarms with powerful AA capabilities.
I mean one of the best real robots IMO is the Vf-1 Valkyrie and that's basically a F14 so there's precedence
technically the TSF is more viable than the VF-1 due to mechanical complexity reasons ... you have something that's supposed to be flying but is also transforming into a mech and mechs are already very complex to begin with and so are planes, especially fighter planes as they are very unstable to fly especially the 4th Gen ones which in 1 way shape or form relies on onboard computers just to retain stability. And as much of a macross fan i am even i have to admit that the VF-1s and its descendants are very flawed especially the siegfrieds from delta...
The coolest part of this animation is, that’s exactly how a dogfight with an F-22 would go in real life. They were designed to be nearly invisible to radar. Even the most advanced radar in the whole world can’t actually track the F-22 as while it can detect the F-22 the radar cross section is so small, that actually tracking it is by radar is so close to impossible that most countries don’t even try. Instead, they employ state of the art motion tracking drone and satellite networks that track by sight. And even then. You almost never know an F-22 is there until it’s far too late. Truly an absolute beauty of technological advancement.
That is not how it works.
Dogfighting is no longer viable since turn fighting slows down the airframe to be very vulnerable to missiles.
Since late 1980s, the US prioritizes in BVR combat. The F-22 maneuverability is not meant for dogfighting(offense) but for survivability when missile locked or in very rare occasions where engagement is in canon range(defense).
Current US air-superiority manuals dictate that a units prioritizes in engaging in BVR and then scoot afterwards
Russian fighters like the Su-35 Su-57 and Mig-35 are not inferior to the f-22 in any way, and in some things they are superior, plus there is no denying the skill of Russian pilots who show such tricks that make the hair stand on end
@@alexmeid8111 Yeah... a real terror, we've seen Su-35's getting shot down over Ukraine and Russia refuses to send in the Su-57 out of fear of the same thing.

@@rightsideup6304 I was expecting something like Ace Combat, but I think they didn't put enough budget which ends up being such a mediocore game
F22 looking mechas are so beautiful like the plane itself that inspired them The artist who designed the F22 and YF23 is a real genius.
Artistry matters despite if it is in a vehicle or a combat plane.
Jet fighters are pretty much the last remaining bastion of the mythos of battle. The fighter pilots are essentially modern knights, they are often depicted as the honorable heroes. And while aircraft are designed with practicality in mind they are also designed with a distinct aesthetic.
The idea of striking fear into your opponent with your appearance is lost in most all other styles of warfare. There's something to be said about making something that is effective and looks cool/intimidating.
I didn't think too many people knew or cared about Muv-Luv Alternative. I am impressed.

Bizarre franchise. Started as a high school romcom then suddenly isekaid into high stakes serious sci-fi military.
My guess is they wanted to ride the romcom hype but failed, so they instead rode the mecha hype.
I mean, I know that back in the day when shows like Gundam were a thing the mecha had a huge association with fighter jets. It certainly isn’t a stretch for this series
In fact, there is an MSV variant of the GM, called the Light Armor GM that was built, and was favored by veteran fighter pilots.
While not overly familiar with the genre due to lack of accessibility as a youth, from what I've seen, Gundam doesn't transform, but the Mechs from Macross do from a F-14-esque plane.
@@CrackedCandy alot of the mechs from mobile suit gundam do transform
@@dysjsg7dbs726 a lot but sadly they evolve into cannon fodder and became less memorable like the ReZel, Flag and M1 Astrays. There's like 3 main transformable gundams Zeta, Wing and Kyrios and its variations but aside from that they're grunt units that features a robot being folded into a more aerodynamic mode or the plane origami-looking ones that merge into with other parts forming a gundam like Victory, Impulse and RX-78

The geopolitical storytelling in ML is insane.
That was the US' choice among it had cheaper operating costs compared to the YF-23 Black Widow. Which also was stealthy and it was more specifically designed to combat in BETA hives, even in close combat with melee weapons. The Black Widow also doesn't follow US combat doctrine of being 99% ranged combat only in MLA.
Also, the geopolitical situation in MLA was really bad. There was much resentment towards the US and they knew when the BETA were defeated, humans will go to war with whomever is left with whatever scraps.

@@thanthongsupawiwattakut Well actually the TSF are suppose to be like super f$cking hard to pilot and the pilot has to pre input or even pre program some orders on the fly.
So if somehow you are able to out pass the aim assistance, then you can be out of the place where the machine was programed to shot before it shots, so in teory an insanely skillful pilot could pull it out, however the F22 is suppose to be a top notch machine, with higher sensitivity, better sensor and in this scene the F22 pilot was suppose to be equally skillful and trained in TSF to TSF combat, also the F22 is actually an anti TSF specialized unit (it is also more than capable to fight against the BETA, but is designed for anti TSF combat).
@@animeturnMMD true

@@atroxiv I know but this is in actual combat.
sadly there hasn't been a war in the past 20 years involving a country with airplanes to get the f-22 involved in, so the simulations will be all we have for the stats of this plane (besides balloons)
The Raptor was animated really well, but all it has done is get me itchy to see the rest of the big three TSFs animated like this.
I'm sure we'll get more of the Takemikazuchi in action in season 2, all thats next is the USSR's Newtype Su-47. That's going to be crazy and glorious.
we wont get the su47 or any from other anime series of muv luv universe.
what we do and will get however is imperial knight from warhammer 40k (aka gen 1 TSF the A6 intruder).
and a lot of shiranui action
I prefer the mig series they cool
I just like how the manuvers are, image what kind of skill and body you need to zip around tree top height, plus acquire targets the same time.
TSF pilots are considered the elite of the elite, because not only you need skills and a lot of preparation but also your body should be able to resist the G forces and all the physical stress that the machine can cause in your body, most humans can't do it despite any training, so actually the pilots are more valuable than the machine, even if the battle is lost usually almost suicidial operations can be launch to rescue a pilot, if possible.
This is one the reason why the main character was so upset with all the situation, that day died many seasoned pilots and many good machines in great shape were destroyed, basically humanity was doing Beta's work for themselves.
I think that the anime wasn't able to show why Takeru was so mad about the situation, from his point of view, all the thing was wasteful, pointless and stupid. He is more or less right, however in muv luv there is always this tension between whats mean being a human and what is necessary to fight against the BETA.

Okay I don't know anything about this show. But the robot designs remind me of Armored Core, and the "cockpit" Zone of The Enders (especially the shot at 0:55). So this is something interesting I stumbled upon.
What do you think of the anime itself?
@@comentnine1574 (possible spoilers)
Okay so I saw the first episode. I did not expect the monster extra-terrestial invasion. Story seems interesting, the character artstyle I'm not a fan off (I checked the shows background and it seems to be part a bigger franchise from 2003, so good for them keeping some of the artstyle similar for the fans). Monster design is creepy which is a plus.
@@chazqui6205 One thing I think was neat is that they provided context to a event that was only mentioned later in the original game, that being the invasion of…that island to the north of Japan.

@@blurwake isn't they're still quite slow? Even with OP Intensify? They able to have OB but still
Ironically enough it is the reverse. Very much so the reverse.
Muv Luv, the visual novel, came out in 2003. While Alternative was made in 2006 the mechanical designs very much were present for the first game, the company just didn't have the time and money to make them. Soviet and European TSFs were probably made later ofc.
Muv Luv generally has way more influence on the anime industry and Japanese authors than you'd think. All You Need Is Kill (award-winning novel adapted into Edge of Tomorrow) is very Muv Luv inspired. Even Isayama claims he was strongly inspired by the plot of Muv Luv while writing Attack on Titan.
Of course these both are separate from the cool mech fights and lean more on how the visual novel's plot was.
Muv Luv alternate sticks out to me because Takeru is basically a massive Virtual-On fan.
Virtual-On is one of my fave games series of all time!
That's pretty cool, i didn't know that actually existed.
@@AsiagoMatteo yeah, Valgern-On is a straight parody. The two games even have the same control method
And him being a gamer helps the mankind, based series
I love the muv luv visual novels and the mech animation in this adaptation is pretty damn good but shame the story doesn't play out too well. But that was kinda expected with them adapting only the third part of a trilogy. Granted there really wasn't much of a choice in that matter.
I like to think it’s because most fans have seen the VN enough times so that it’s hard seeing the same story from a different perspective if that makes any sense.
@@comentnine1574 well for me I think the story needs some rewriting. Such as the first ep being about operation Lucifer to introduce captain sagiri to help build up to the coup. And maybe half way then they repel a beta attack add him into it to demonstrate his capabilities and use that as well to introduce the Valkyries squad earlier. Maybe cut out some of the school like stuff with tama's dad and the exercise on the island as there no build up to them going to the island. Essentially u think they should have streamlined things a bit and focus on certain areas more to help build up to story moments. Even if it means changing the story a little bit.
@@comentnine1574Respectfully, if you're a VN fan I don't really see any reason to watch the anime as you already have the og source (ie. the better one) other than to see the mech fights. If anything this was a good opportunity to grab new fans attention to the franchise. It being a mecha genre doesn't really help either since it wasn't the most popular genre back then
@@keevanalrasyidumar5450 I kind of agree to an extent. Most of the people who watched it were probably already fans, but I'm also wondering how high their hopes were for an anime series of a 40 hour VN with also two whole other games worth of context BEFORE it.
@@bransonallen2925 Well as all of us already pointed out Alternative is the only way to go what's with Extra and Unlimited don't seem to garner much demand (though I'm positive it's execution of the Isekai trope would be a fresh air in this saturated market). If anyone's to blame it's really just ourselves to set up the unrealistic standard.
With that out of the way, in my opinion, the pacing of the episodes are too fast (though that's a common problem with animes), and a lot the details regarding Takeru's original world, his journey of the past, and his relationships with his classmate (that's already reduced compared to Unlimited since he focused in Alternative IV) get cut off too much in the anime. I also didn't notice this for the first time but while they change a lot of the character's hair they also change the design of the head piece from the pilot suit that the previous adaptations, wich are Schwarsesmarken and Total Eclipse, never did. The last two are a very minor complain but I can't see behind their reasoning.
Honestly though, I'm still happy with what we got. If you change the media of an entertainment you would certainly deal with the upside-downside of said media, thus at the same time give you limitations and liberty unique to each media. This is a common recurring problem that I can't see the solution.
Besides, anime adaptations nowadays are just an advertisement to the orginal's work so adapting it 100% accurate is simply not the main objective in the first place. They manage to express what can't be done in the VN and I'm satisfied with the executions.
The LRSSG is performing well in other universes too, I see.

TLDR: Imagine Imperial Japan from WW2 who instead of going pacifist Kawaii culture IRL, still maintained their suicidal, racist ideology of Yamato Damashi.
TLDR TLDR: If you squint, it is essentially a mockery of the entire "JAPAN STONK" stuff that GATE is trying to portray.
The entire thing is grey, but IIRC in this universe the Satsuma rebellion in 1877 was successful, which meant that the at the time slowly displaced Samurai caste regained their power and privileges.
There are a bunch of cooler minds in the Japanese civilian government, but the rebels you see here accused them of treason before killing them.
The ones here essentially angry at the US for essentially using them as frontline "fodder" (which isn't really the US's fault because seriously its the BETA) and believe that Japan can push out the US (doubtful) and fend for themselves (despite food shortages, they are still receiving non-insignificant food imports from the US though they are trying to build and open a artificial food processing plant IIRC), and also defend themselves against the BETA (last time they tried they almost got wiped out as the Japanese military was more or less green with only a few pilots with limited experience who fought in China, but were eventually able to stall/slow them up to Yokohama).
In the MLA setting, Japan really does not like the US especially since the US pulled out due to their previous experience against the BETA on the European front and previously Lunar front, especially in how they should avoid frontal conflicts, leading to a collapse in the Japanese front line, essentially for all intents and purposes violated their treaty.
When the BETA began to rapidly grow a Hive at Yokohama, Japanese, UN, COSEAN (along with unofficial US military support) attacked it first with conventional forces before the US space corp dropped the experimental G-Bomb on it, which is made using G-elements harvested from destroyed BETA hives, which at this point was one in Canada which the US saturation nuked as soon as it landed. Thus the first victory against the BETA since the conflict started for more than 2 decades.
Again, Japan did not really like that, especially since afterwards ALT5 plan was announced . (Spoilers, ALT5 plan was a desperation plan and bad).
Not sure how much of the setting you know, but the reason why the G-Bomb was developed was to give the bomb a gravitational lensing that would 'deflect' laser fire from the BETA and demolish them with a multi-dimensional blast (people didn't understand it that well). Yokohama base was established to determine the after affects to human habitation.
Some spoilers for the aftermath of ALT5, but essentially all the land was transformed into salt plains, the oceans got screwed with some rising above sea level, and the entire Euro-Asia continent sank. Insult to injury, that still didn't kill all the BETA, but now their HIVES are at the bottom of the new oceans and are unreachable.

0:30 I see what they did there thats homage to that legendary encounter of the actual F-22. Bros fucking cold
Hell Yeah!
Imagine Mobius One Using This During The Continental War.......
Things could have turned out differently...
As a military enthusiast and "geek", I loved the moment I saw their status report, when they spoke in English. Lol it just reminds me of who the top boi is.
There's a lot of stuff I could talk about their appearance but the pinned comment already covers that, so yeah...
Nw... But your voice matters too bro

Serious armored core vibes here.
Me whenever I see a Mecha Anime: Do they have buildable kits for that?
They do. :)
Yep, Kotobukiya has them.
If they had missiles, not only would the Raptors be gunning and running, but they'd literally be sniping those mechas from their squads

FREEDOM 🇺🇸🇺🇸🔥🔥🦅🦅RAHHHH
The music was a nice touch.
Damn, I thought Armored Core had an anime adaptation ;_;
That f22 raptor head looks like the white glint AC from Armored Core 4!
btw ACFA operator, Kasumi Sumika, is a reference to Muv-Luv characters, Kasumi Yashiro and Sumika Kagami
An F-22 would blow you out of the sky before you even know it's there.
It has the radar signature of the balls on a mosquito and you'll barely see a little blip right before it fires it's payload.
That's it, the "fight" is over. Lmao
Love this anime tho. 😆🤟
So this is highly debated: Its very stealthy against X-band radar, but its not very stealthy at all against L-band radar and the effectiveness of stealth is diminished the closer you get to targets. Combine that with datalinking and ground/air listening systems and stealth is not the be-all-end-all energy doctrine force multiplier it was thought to be unless you pair it with electroptical detection systems so you don't issue any active radar behaviour whatsoever (which of course, defeats your range advantage too so its lose/lose).
The F22 was the inspiration for the Flag mobile suit in Gundam 00 as well, which makes sense, because they come from the Union - the North American treaty nation led by the US.
Always loved the design. These are an evolution of that ethos for sure. Stealth, speed, ferocity.
Hellll Yeah Brother
I’m not into anime nor this kind of animation, but DAYUM this is badass
I love the tactical surface fighters
Yeah they're pretty cool huh?
Competent Starscreams?!
i need this dubbed with the America fk yeah theme song from Team America. Don't let me down Internet, i believe in you
even as someones whos favorite factions in miltary scifi is never the U.S.A. or U.S.A. equivelents, not because of the real life U.S. military sucking but because those factions are typically the most vanilla and hence kinda boring. I think the major issue is that U.S.A. factions are concieved as being kind of just generically overpowered, they have the basics and they have a better version of those basics than everyone else, its not the most innacurate i guess, but it is something that makes for a boring faction, the tutorial faction if you will.
with all that said... HOLY SHIT THE F22 IS SO COOL! I LOVE ITS HEAD WITH ITS SPIDER ARRAY OF EYES AND SHARP ANGLES! ITS GOT DUEL MACHINE GUNS THAT IT GANGSTA BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAMS SHIT OTHER TSF WITH AT 340MPH! ITS A SNEAKY EDGELORD MACHINE TO THE POINT OF BEING UNIRONICALLY BADASS! ITS SO FAST AND DEADLY AND IMPOSING LOOKING! I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!
That's a nice opinion you got there...

He really did went.. "Nothing personal kid" on this one
The Mechs remind me so much of the Armor Core 4 mechs
They are designed around the same era. F-22A Raptor (as a TSF) was made in 2002-2005 and likely had inspiration from Armored Core 3, Gundam and Evangelion. Armored Core 4's mechs were made around 2003-2006 and took inspiration from Armored Core 3, Evangelion and Gundam. Both are also made in Japan.
Another fun fact, Armored Core 4: For Answer has slight nods towards Muv Luv Alternative. One of the characters (from AC4 but not yet given a name) is named after two pivotal characters from Muv Luv.
@@willyvereb wait who?
@@hitoshura7 Sorry, yt never showed your post so thank the one who liked my message so I noticed this question.
Kasumi Sumika, she's a Lynx from AC4 and AC4:FA. She's also Strayed's operator under a different alias.
She's named after Yashiro Kasumi and Kagami Sumika. I don't say more because in october Muv Luv Alternative returns so I don't wanna spoil anything.
@@willyvereb damn cool. I should play ac4, I’ll definitely try it out when i get my ps3 to work
0:39 spike squadron I would definitely have them on my team
armored core ahh vibes
Glorious Pittsburgh Steel. Folded Zero times.
Casted to perfection :P
What I like about Muv Luv is that it doesn't indulge in nationalistic fantasies by making Japan somehow the No1 global super power. The made sure even the best mechs our MC used by the end the story was still inferior to American ones. No asspulls for wish-fulfillment's sake like a lot of right-wing writers often do.
lol yeh
except for the mobile fortress with energy beam canon powered by G-element. yeah
@@lamhuynh7201 And that's from the US, so...
You can’t fault them for that considering several other writers in other countries do the same, that isn’t inherently bad until they start overplaying stuff.
@@Kokuori japan over plays it alot they make themselves look like super powers with no competition fuck they even go above American propaganda atleast americans die and struggle in its propaganda games and movies japan goes rolling over enemies in most ultra nationalist shows/movies games are different they actually do suffer lol
My boy finally got intercepted. Grandpa Buff must be proud.
TSF's fighting each-other? Don't we currently have an alien problem to deal with?

Gun jammed at the worst moment
lmao yeh
It wasn't Jammed. The traitor(He was his subordinate and also pilot the Raptor) used a special command to lock it and the result of that command happened at the right moment when he fought that sword guy.

lol
So this anime is basically Ace combat using mix of gundam and armored core mech huh
no, there is no latin music
Was the lock screen on the f-22 raptors screen meaning the weapons of the f-22 raptor was locked?
That's Right
@@AsiagoMatteo Just to clarify. It means he couldn't fire like how the raptor locked the other dudes gun?
To clarify for my seemingly nonexistent brain that is struggling to finish my physics 12 homework, it means his gun was pretty much on safety?
That's right. In an "Alternative" universe Where the F22 Raptor is a Mech instead of an Aerial Superiority Fighter.
Safety locks were engaged by a 3rd acting party (A Mole/Instigator within the USAF, that seeks to spark conflict between the Imperial Loyalists) Good luck with da homework btw @@FrostYT4444
@@AsiagoMatteo First of all, I KNEW IT. Ain't no way f-22 would lose without dirty play. Lessgo lessgo lessgo.
P.S _I finished my physics homework AND my calculus homework :D_
Ok, what's the name of this? And where can I find it? The art style reminds me of gundam meets zone of the enders mixed with armored core, and it looks awesome!
check description
Muv Luv Alternative is the anime. It does have hell bent alien race known as the BETAs but in most Muv Luv animes, it usually focus on the human side of things than fighting those aliens. Like politics and stuff like that. So it just goes into a sort of civil war amongst itselves fighting each other than working together to survive a human extinction level event.
The anime does have plot, and I mean booba plot in skintight pilot suits of cute girls and sometimes a single male protagonist that would felt like a harem....sorta.
In my opinion, Muv Luv Schwartzmarken is my fave Muv Luv series. Taking place in the 1960s where it's about east and west Germany. East Germany facing the BETAs head on with their high risk TSF mecha squadron. But the anime also plays out the whole secret police-like state when corruption is involved in Muv-Luv Schwartzmarken.
@@GhostChild808 I concer schwarzesmarken is good. But does not have F22 because it is cold war era
@@AsiagoMatteo that's what I like about it. To me, it felt like a time before everything just advanced more. Well we did get Total Eclipse with that male MC being half and half Japanese American tho in current timeline, I think
@@GhostChild808 Schwarzesmarken takes place in 1983, a decade after the initial alien landing in Kashgar.
really good 3d animation!
Needed more missile action before the up close from the mach 2 bumblebee.
I'm likely never gonna redo this video, but thanks for the suggestion!
Lockheed Martin: "How did they know about our mecha project?"
( O_O' )
Does this Muv Luv feature head chomping action?
Not yet
That gonna spoil for 2nd season XD
BTW edit to avoid the copyright I enjoy it much actually
Probably second season ep1... It's gonna be a wild ride!
@@josetonbustamante yeh... I guesss we'll see...
Well I did remembered seeing the Total Eclipse 1st episode where the lone female pilot failed to shoot her friend surrounded by BETAs to mercy kill her, but was too shocked to see her friend being eaten alive in front of her. So to me, that counts as head chomping xD
God I wish kotobukiya would make a 1/144 raptor model kit, the no scale one is so expensive for someone outside of Japan
Reminder that the only reason he lost was because of Glow in the Dark CIA bullshit.
Its alwasys the CIA's fault :pensive:
F22 is the superior tsf yes yes indeed.
