In Japan, Blue Archive has dominated the art community. There are more stalls dedicated to Blue Archive than anything else in the last Comiket and the upcoming one. It's comparable to Touhou and Kancolle except Blue Archive is somewhat more popular globally as it's quite popular in South Korea, too. The Blue Archive anime could have been higher quality, but I heard that Yostar Pictures dedicated some of their time and resources into making the Go! Go! Loser Ranger! anime, which is also airing this season. Overall Blue is my favorite gacha game. I'd even argue that it's the cutest gacha game out there.
Blue Archive dominated Comiket
The cutest and funniest (😭) gacha game I've ever played. You don't need to suck your soul into the game only to get a glisme of what to do and what to farm in the game. A very laid-back and chill game you can play as casually and a competitor player.
AGREED
So far, it's the only gacha game I've ever played and I really like it as a newer player.
I agree, it is.
Is Mika a bad person at the start of Volume 3? Unequivocally yes. But she grows in one of the better examples of character growth I ever seen anywhere. "My students are allowed to make mistakes."
Gorilla Gorilla, baka Gorilla. We sentenced her with Cake Rolls.
The main thing I hoped for in the anime was the use of the original soundtrack but yeah T-T
I remember when I started blue archive last year it was a constant “wait this bgm sounds familiar” “wait this sounds even more familliar” “hold up this one is really fucking familiar”
BA is one of those games that you simply have to play to enjoy. I loved the music for a while but never fully grasped how much the community loved the characters - especially since the trailers depicted them to be tropey.
But when I learned more about the characters, what they go through, and (especially) how Sensei acts toward them (consistently responsible and genuinely offering guidance to them), I quickly fell in love with the game. I'm proud to look after my students, and give them the comfort and reassurance they need to move on...
Bro, i litterally feel the same way, its so beatiful to see characters grow and go along with them helping them and offering guidance to them.
They first time i played BA i loved the prologue and was so excited to be able to play the game, then when i finally was able to i literally played the 1 and 2 Volume in a few weeks, its the best thing ever, truly i think BA will last for a lot of time.
Yes i also had no idea about the community, but must i say, they are basically the best community i´ve ever seen, very good and charming people and the love they have towards the characters, the developers of BA did a good job making EVERY character unique.
The music is also good for BA.
Overall my favorite Game now and ever.
Yes, when i saw some videos about BA i was curious about the game, and then played the prologue and couldn´t let go of the game.
Mostly responsible until we get to how weird they are with Iori
@@JohnPeacekeeper You mean the community?
Yeah its weird, but at least its just 1 character and not half of the entire catalogue.
Blue Archive feels very unique among gacha games.

This i heavily agree with, anime sensei is fine but MAN, they really missed with this one.
Manga Sensei looks like a real menace
Click on the video cuz i see the Balkan map in the thumbnail and the title
I love it, great video, you've earned my sub
"The mandatory beach arc"
Mandatory beach *arcs*. There's been about five, and there will almost certainly be more to come.
The man is back once again
btw. Although sensei could be a dog character. It is explicitely stated in the prologue (By Rin) that Sensei was summoned (whatever that means) from another world. So you are free to believe what Sensei looks like.
Dog people in Kivotos is well,,, really weird. You have cat people but also just cats and you have cat girls... The Male gender probably? exists because characters recognize drawing of men (Koharu's book features a Male character while Cherino's office portrait was commented by Makoto as " a different Gender".)
Funny thing about Dog people. They are technically? bulletproof as well. The game has featured them getting shot a few times. I think Kirino's character story she literally shot these people by accident.
Not "summoned" in the sense of isekai, I believe the meaning they wanted to go for was "contacted" or "called" there. They state that Sensei is from "outside of Kivotos", which is why he's neither a dog person or a robot, since the other people from outside Kivotos are Gematria, all of which are (at the very least) humanoid in appearance.
@@kaitoalkan Now I don't speak japanese (only kinda semi understand what the characters are saying) but I do speak korean and the devs are also korean. The korean text uses "불러낸" which can be used to mean you called someone over but is also commonly used to say summoned.
So yeah he could be part of the world and just happened to be called into Kivotos but I think the text also implies summoned? I think the devs intentionally made it quite vague.
@@yesihateu2218 There's no implication in the story that it's conventional isekai though. Most of the "other world" stuff happens LONG after you've been in Kivotos, and with other characters like _ahem_ "Anubis"
Bulletproof? They are presumably firing rubber bullets or something right? Right?
@@LoliconSamalik ofcourse its not isekai. I am saying there is a possibility that the Sensei was summoned. All is vague in how Sensei got to Kivotos.
Since you mention Anubis you know other characters also have this kind of "true identity" thing right?
I'd like to think that every sensei is valid sensei as long as he or she is an adult who cared for their students more than themselves.
Especially after Vol.F
The same situation, The same decision
Bro pretended Volume 2 didn't exist
Yeah it wasn't my favorite volume lmao
To be fair it doesn't have as much impact on later volumes from what I've read so far (just started the homeless rabbit arc) and as much as I enjoyed the spy story, the stakes are kind of all over the place lol
@@SuperSnowsharkIsn't the part where
Spoiler
Arisu get taken by Rio to get deconstructed and Key's appearance is kinda important to the story?
most people probably haven't reach Vol.F, that's where Vol.2 has its importance and reached its climax imho with that Aris and Rio scene
Vol2Ch1 is great for rpg references and vibing with the game dev club. Vol2Ch2 is setup for VolFCh3. Decent chapter but the ones after it makes it pale in comparison.
Not gonna lie, the lack of challenge and commitment to being mostly a visual novel contextualized by gameplay is what makes BA's story easy to follow. Just deleted Nikke off of my phone after going through 2 months of stop and go storytelling because the story progression is trash in ways that even raw skill can't solve, making for a really unengaging grip on the story. The fact that they seperate story and gameplay focused modes in BA is a blessing in it's own right. It just avoids the gacha storytelling traps
0:35 Also don't you DARE slight Planetarium like that! That visual novel will make you die inside once it's all over. 😭
Yugoslavia mentioned, video instantly liked. Red Winter best district don't @ me. Zdravi mi bili, drugovi iz Kivotosa! lol
blue also means youth
You have joined us fellow newcomer welcome to the community there’s no coming back 🙏😭
Truly i think this game will last for at least and even more than a decade.
Overall beatiful game, beatiful community and very dedicated and passionate developers.
I remember getting into blue archive during launch and its one of my favorite gacha games, the story is deep and made you feel for the characters, gameplay wise it could get repetitive and the gacha system is somewhat generous depending on how much mercy the pity system is willing to give you,but you have many different types of missions you can take, the momotalk is useful if you wanna spend more time with your favorite students and it teaches you alot about them, the soundtrack is awesome, the community is very wholesome there's alot of fanfics weather it's gamer momoi and mika making racist jokes or sensei getting corrected by kivotos, i hope nexon doesn't kill this game, the anime adaptation is alright maybe cutting off a few corners like not explaining how the halo works but regardless I hope it gets 2 seasons at most.
You did NOT just call Planeterian a dubious 2000s dating sim
For sensei being in human form and not dog, you can replay the vol 1 (forgot which chapter) when Nonomi said that "sensei is not really different from us" which imply that we are humanlike. I don't know if this is translated in global version since I read the story in Jp server which is the reason why I stay at Jp because translation in global is somewhat misleading sometimes...
Subscribed to you for the GG video you made but didn't watch anything else
By the way, im kinda curious
Where are their parents??? Why is sensei the only known reliable adult?? What about the furries?? Robots?
Final volume:
Volume 3 is a banger, but has Soapbyby played Volume F yet? That might beat Volume 3 out.
Who could tell mixing Lolis and street gangs could give us a high Quality Game?
I like how you say it’s refreshing to see a unequivocal bad guy, yet you don’t show fucking Beatrice.
What's the OST playing at 8:16 ?
Where’s the TNO I was promised in NPP Funny?
0:10 gif sauce where
this is the first time I heard slander over sensei's design
the blue archive community is borderline gay for him at this point
I will never play any other gatcha game beyond Nikke. I don't have that kind of time in my life anymore. It's neat to hear that this one is goofy and unhinged at the start.
funny i played both, dropped Nikke ... after quiet few months. But not a single time I considered dropping BA.
Pro tip - be true to what you said. Because once you start BA , you won't leave :). So from your perspective its best to never try.
The gud thing about BA is it doesn't require much time of your daily life to play, something that is uncommon in modern gachages.
Definitely a wagie-friendly game.
Ironically BA is designed for "i dont have that kind of time anymore" person
I mean those SWEET SWEET SWEEP mechanic are godsend
I play both nikke and blue archive and im glad blue archive dailies take less time than the time I need to do simulation room and interception

god dang it i thought there was going to be some great lore cuz like theres weird people and like dogs and stufff so like as a balkaners this is just a weeabo trap i guess i dunno only if there was a gigantic civil war that caused a few genocides.
arknights fans when the lore isn't constantly depressing and causing heartbreaks at every story beat
Asking lore when the game you playing is gacha, so many plot hole, play true story telling games instead.
@@kaitodelucky7652 I mean... when it's done right (like how Blue Archive somehow keeps every single character we meet/win at the gacha actually relevant in the lore whilst making them endearing one way or another all the way) and is interesting (such as the conflict between the different schools that result from past events to political differences, the negative portrayal of adults and Sensei being the exception who upholds a professional yet loving and caring standard, Hoshino's past and Mika's drive to sanity after seeing her so XD-like initially) gacha game lore CAN be a major part of why people play it too, alongside gambling and the characters and the music (like Arknights)
BA's lore isn't as complex, being the Undertale of sorts of the gacha game roster whilst having emotional depth into the story and those who experience it (and making gameplay still enjoyable). It's one of the driving factors of why its lore hits harder compared to the dialogue in Arknights that I skip to get to gameplay quicker...
@@indescribablycoolikeafurniture uhhh i have no idea what arknights is also i dont want games with deppresing lore or anything this is just not what i expected from the video that litteraly talks about a anime like game that is super weird haveing a reference in the yugoslav civil war like i just wanted more i guess this is to less . freaking make the dog people fight the weird cat people.
