Fall 2022 Preview: Arknights: Prelude To Dawn

Speaking of Ace, his seeming death was perhaps the show's first misstep from a directing standpoint , if only because it is so poorly edited. We are shown him, alone, facing down Reunion at supposedly full strength, and then in the next scene, only he and one member of his unit rem


With that said, Arknights ' premiere does a fine job of introducing audiences to the world of Terra through the eyes of the protagonist much in the same way a game might. Perhaps the amnesia trope and the resulting exposition can come off as a tiresome conceit to the mobile game's trappings, but it's all in service of translating the game's mechanics into a functional st

Granted a lot of mobile game promotional material is produced well but in short bursts, hence why the Fate/Grand Order commercials always look so unbelievably detailed. However, through effective use of digital effects work and keen directing, Arknights' visual style isn't so detailed that a TV animation couldn't be imagined in a similar qual

Once again, the background art of locations is stunning, with the use of depth of field to give the imagery a particularly filmic look at times. This is the kind of globe-trotting adventure story that thrives specifically because of its art direction and with anime's arguable decline in background art quality, the industry should take notes from this s


Arknights came back strong this week with a more relaxed episode introducing a new locale and new characters, dropping hints of a more significant battle to come. Until that happens, however, it's nice to see a new city to get a sense of what normal life is like in this world that has so far only been explored through ruin and


Ace's death should serve as some catalyst for character growth; a tragedy that pushes the characters forward, but it feels like it just happens, which is unfortunate. This episode also leads one to worry about how fleshed-out the characters will be in this series, given a clearly large cast, but only limited time to show t

The color comes through in the characters and their magic, which seems to lighten up the world in the same ways that they aim to cure the illness plaguing it. With every animated OVA, ad, and special animation having been animated in-house at Yostar Pictures, the style remains consistent, though sometimes animated in 3D rather than

Arknights isn't going to be a long series, but after this second episode, it's hard not to be excited about the remaining six. Every new gorgeous background shot or character introduction makes the investment more worth it, but what elevates the series as of now is the world itself, how it operates, and how it has molded these charact


The infected are made outcasts, prompting many to join a militant group called Reunion in opposition to the world governments. Between the resistance movement and the corrupt governments are the protagonists, the operators of Rhodes Island, led by the protagonist and player character, "Doct


Mobile games like Arknights are some of the biggest teases out there, in that from the outside looking in they present themselves as much larger than it is. People who have seen its myriad ads and animated promotional material no doubt have committed its name and iconography to memory without ever seeing a glimpse of the tower-defense gamep


Last week, the powerful fire-wielding Talulah cornered the members of Rhodes Island and saw fit to incinerate the lot of them. As Episode 3 opens, Amiya demonstrates her own power in shielding her allies, though only so far as to hold off what seems like an inevitably bloody bat


Mephisto's attitude and attire immediately make an impression, and it's mostly a positive one, even if his brand of crazy can feel a little overdone in anime games reviews. The action in this episode had its moments, though the choreography and direction weren't spectacular. Once the heroes' backup arrived, they seemed to just appear as a comically huge group as if no one had noticed their approach. They weren't even sneaking up on any
