- After playing Rumbling Hearts and Muv-Luv, I played it for about 30 hours on the day it was released. Now when I think about it, I think the reason I was able to delve so deeply into the story was not just the plot, but the fact that there was so much room for imagination in the novelization of the game.
- For those of you who are new to this piece and are seeing it for the first time in the anime, please share one thing that makes this piece so exciting.
- Whether it’s a comic or a movie, the way of making a story interesting is the same. It pushes the characters to their limits. “Muv-Luv” taught me that. I hope you enjoy the extreme tension and the feeling of extreme freedom.
