Schwarzesmarken Episode 1 Review - STRAFE! シュヴァルツェスマーケン
Schwarzesmarken episode 1 has quite the brutal start but was average average overall. The animation and other formal aspects are lacking but I enjoyed this episode one because the ruthless military/war elements are real/visceral & the depiction of this fictional Germany is extremely well done. Interested to find out more about these character and must steel my resolve for the inevitable character deaths to come. NEED THAT UNCENSORED VERSION! This definitely makes me want to check out the Muv Luv series tho! Summary: Schwarzesmarken is a spin-off of the Muv-Luv Alternative series, but the events takes place in 1983. The East German Army 666th TSF Squadron "Schwarzesmarken" (Black Marks) are a special-forces unit tasked with assaulting BETA forces through unconventional tactics; specifically, they target Lux and Magnus Lux to deny the BETA the advantage of ranged firepower. Their orders are given the topmost priority, such that it is common practice for the 666th to ignore allied distress calls that will result in deviation from their original mission, even if only for a short moment. The 666th Squadron mostly operates MiG-21s, with their squadron commander Irisdena Bernhard piloting an MiG-21PF.
