Yet, Yoshimune-san explained that it’s not really difficult for him to keep track of those branches. The story of Muv-Luv branches between the world derived by the ending of Unlimited, and the situation created by the end of Alternative. This creates a contrast with the fact that they have body parts with similar looks. Humans and BETA have in common the fact that they’re both carbon-based organisms, and the BETA actually doubt whether humans are living beings at all. To that end, human body parts were used as part of the BETA’s design. This was done to instill into players feelings of revulsion when looking at them. The team didn’t aim to design them just as scary creatures, working instead on looks that would be as disgusting as possible.

The mecha design of the Japanese TFS is inspired by famous Japanese artists like Kazutaka Miyatake, Masami Oobari, and Mamoru Nagano, to whom the Muv-Luv team looks up with great respect.Īnother peculiar element in the Muv-Luv series is the enemy, embodied by the alien invaders named BETA. The American Government pushed for a collaborative project based on the F-16, and this collaboration appears in Muv-Luv as well, following what happened in the real world. The only exception is the project that gave birth to the Mitsubishi F-2.

After Japan’s defeat in World War II, the local military hasn’t worked on domestically produced fighters. Interestingly, the Japanese TSF are an exception, as they’re not inspired by real military jets. In order to provide a sensation of realism, elements of the real world have been included, like the TSF (Tactical Surface Fighters, the mecha included in the franchise) inspired by actual military aircraft, alongside historical factors like the relationship between Japan and the United States. The Muv-Luv series is about human beings growing up, and it was initially targeted for the young generations in Japan.
