In Which Anime Girls Make Out And Transform Into Weapons

Making its debut at this weekend’s AnimeJapan expo in Japan, Valkyrie Drive is a mixed-media game and anime project from Marvelous which revolves around girls making out and turning into weapons. It all makes sense when you realize who it’s coming from.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" Y1 com Game }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); From Kenichirō Takaki, the man who brought us the Senran Kagura series of stripping ninja girl games, y1 com games comes…well, you get the picture. Check out the first mildly NSFW teaser trailer below (viaDestructoid) and we’ll chat after. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoLnEWUP71s You can Y1 COM catch a nicer version of the vid at Marvelous’ official Valkyrie Drive website, which lays out the new IP’s three-pronged plan of attack. Apparently the story revolves around a strange virus that begins turning girls from their late teens to 20s into weapons, other girls emerging with the power to wield the weapon women, and a world scrambling to use them to their own ends, as you do. There’ll be a television anime, Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid, a console game called Valkyrie Drive: Ascenseur, and a free-to-play social mobile game, Valkyrie Drive: Siren, that will tie into the console offering somehow. Considering the source, expect the series and games to be packed full of fan service. Hell, the trailer is mostly fan service. And while normally I’d say there’s not a chance in hell this sort of property would come stateside, Marvelous really doesn’t seem to give a damn.
