The unapologetic propaganda in support of imperialist/colonial occupation forces and theft of natural resources is back.

Guilty pleasure because watching military with guns fight medieval kingdoms and fantasy characters is hilarious.. I hear it gets even more unhinged and ultra nationalist. Anyone know if the Japanese military is funding it this time or did someone else fund this one?

Wtf, why who wanted this lmfao. I watched about half the first season and it was an entertaining enough gun-jerk, but I had to tap out when the MC started gaslighting the elf girl character into thinking she was her dead elf father. I wouldn't call it terrible, but what can you do with "and then the modern military utterly washes the huge midieval military state in minutes" and keep it actually interesting?

I guess there was that hilarious scene where the spec ops squads of all the big nations were tricked into killing each other by the JSDF spec ops, over possession of the obligatory loli 500 year old goddess, who was a diplomatic guest of Japan at the time.

Oh this sounds so much worse than what I imagined from the OP oh-shit

It's a military circle jerk anime that glorifies the JDF more or less and the original writer is a big time nationalist
