"It's okay. Don't be afraid. Mother is right here... Everything's fine... See?" -- Alicia Melchiott

Valkyria Chronicles is a Turn-Based Strategy game set in a fantasy world based on World War II. The story follows Squad 7 of the Gallian Army, as they push back against the Empire threatening to invade their land. It's an anime-style war story, with a lot of heart!

I love this game's presentation. The storybook frame around every scene, the water-colors filter on top of 3D models. The way the story is predented if it's a History Book! It's originally a PS3 game, but it has better animations & presentations compared to modern games in 2025. Playing it is a treat for me, and I hope watching my playthrough would be a treat for you too.

This session is another attempt at the battle of Woodland Snare. This time I was prepared.

After the battle, Welkin and Alicia join the rest of Squad 7. I love the cute scene with Isara and Rosie in the end. Welkin's talk about family, that the whole Squad is a second family to him, stroke a chord with Alicia... I love it so much!
