Arknights: Prelude To Dawn: Episode 4 "Loyalty" Review

The premiere of Arknights might not be as fun as 2020's Holy Knight Light , but it possesses a similar passion behind it. Having the protagonist command the characters via essentially a smartphone is on the nose, but played straight in a way that's commendable. It will be exciting to see how this world expands and learn why so many have been drawn to Arknights before


In stark contrast to the towering buildings seen in the early episode, the slums of Lungmen appear almost a world away, and it's there that we find Misha, an Ursus girl on the run. She's hidden among the undocumented infected flocking to Lungmen, though not much else is revealed about her thus far. It's only known that she's wanted by the authorities and that plenty of punks in the slums are searching for


He is negotiating with the Doctor, Amiya, and the newly introduced Doctor Kal'tsit, about a contract between Rhodes Island and the city of Lungmen, to work together and share intel. With fears of another attack from Reunion, Kal'tsit insists that a contract is integral to stave off disaster and that Lungmen's infected policy won't eschew the ire of Reun

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. 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


Presentation is by far this show's greatest weapon, and between the colors, the scenery, and the aspect ratio, Arknights looks very different from a lot of contemporary anime. Mobile game commercials often present a broad Anime Games Patch Notes aesthetic , but they're created so short and bursting with style that they often look different from any actual an


Rhodes Island is cornered by a unit of Reunion led by Crownslayer, a mysterious Arts user who appears to not get along with other generals such as the insane Mephisto. Crownslayer's interest in Doctor gives the impression that she might have ulterior motives distinct from the major facti


Thankfully, as the characters make their escape and return home, there is more good than bad, starting with the aforementioned elaboration on the catastrophe. Not only is there raining fire, but the meteors themselves contain Originium, thus creating large crystalline fields full of the mineral. It's a mineral that grows, meaning there isn't much scarc


In a dystopian future, the inhabitants of the planet Terra display traits of animals, and a disease has spread across the world called "oripathy." This disease actually gives people the capability to wield magic, but such benefits are meager before the mortality and infectious spr


Perhaps it's another caveat of being a mobile game adaptation; with so many characters whose chief goal is to have a striking character design, characterizations become simpler. Through a game medium, that can be effective, with lore as a supplementary resource to flesh out characters. In a show, however, it can lead to characters feeling somewhat pointless at the mom

Last week, Doctor woke up with no memory of who he was, being escorted to safety in a city overrun by terrorist rioters, before remembering enough tactical wherewithal to coordinate a defense. When we left the members of Rhodes Island, they were attempting to leave Chernobog to avoid the impending catastro


Arknights ' cast is almost entirely full of humans with some animal traits, typically ears or horns, but Wei Yenwu, the chief of the city of Lungmen nicknamed Wei the Cunning, is on a whole other level. His character design and the regal nature of his office immediately make an impression, giving him a unique air of significance in this world that solidifies the strength he holds within the sc


Whatever form a narrative takes in a mobile game will undoubtedly be difficult to translate into a serialized narrative without taking liberties to account for pacing and a shift in priorities. At the most limited capacity, a game demands consistent and structured gameplay, with narrative serving as a break from gamep

From the last guard's reaction, Ace apparently lost his arm, but there is no shot of the other arm, making it honestly hard to be certain if that is what happened. That is to say nothing of how confusing it is if Ace survived the previous implied scene between him and Reunion. Structurally, the sequence is all over the pl
