Why did the visual novels shift their tone to a more serious and futuristic storyline if the original was a success? The tone of Muv-Luv differs greatly from Muv-Luv Extra to Muv-Luv Unlimited and Alternative. This was to make it easier for the players to read the moral lessons of the game, that an ordinary everyday life is actually vulnerable and peace isn’t free of charge. Koki Yoshimune, Muv-Luv Creator: We’ve filled Muv-Luv with a lot of typical scenes that are found and commonly used in Japanese content. Why did you want to start the story with this scene and what inspired the fusion of mecha with a romance novel? Muv-Luv begins with the protagonist waking up next to a mysterious woman. Siliconera got in touch with Koki Yoshimune, author of the Muv-Luv series, to learn more about his series. With an initial $250,000 goal, the project has since raised over $820,000 from over 5,000 people as its November 3 end date draws near. There, he becomes a mecha pilot, while still having the chance to fall in love with the women around him. It then transitions into a science-fiction adventure where the Takeru from the original universe discovers he’s in a parallel timeline with an alternate history. The trilogy is a visual novel series that starts out as a traditional love triangle between Takeru, a high school boy, and two girls named Sumika and Meiya.


On September 24, the Muv-Luv Team took to Kickstarter in the hopes of getting enough funding to release an English translation of Muv-Luv Extra, Muv-Luv Unlimited, and Muv-Luv Alternative outside of Japan.
