About Valvrave the Liberator

Looking for background on Valvrave the Liberator (革命機ヴァルヴレイヴ)? This action and mecha series by Sunrise (2013) starts out like this. In short: True Calendar (T.C. 71 - A new age where 70% of the human population lives in space thanks to the development of "Dyson Sphere", a metropolis in space.

As things develop, the realm is divided into two main powers: The Dorssia Military Pact Federation, a power which grew out of a military alliance, and the Atlantic Rim United States (ARUS), which grew in ability as it expanded its trade agreements. The minor nation of JIOR has declared neutrality between these two forces and maintains its peace through economic prosperity. Within the JIOR's Sphere, Haruto Tokishima lived an ordinary life as a high school student in the division known as "Module 77"—until the Dorssian military begins their sudden invasion!

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Haruto Tokishima (Ryouta Oosaka) and L-ELF Karlstein (Ryouhei Kimura) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. The run is 12 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
