"I know how I can give my life as a Valkyria meaning. I'll stoke my life fire into a blaze. I'll save you. I'll save Bruhl, my friends, and everyone else in Gallia." -- 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 may be the best chapter of Valkyria Chronicles...
The Empire reveals its Ultimate Weapon: The Marmota. The squad try their best slowing it down, in an interesting battle.
After the battle, Alicia goes on her own to the Marmota. Resolved to defeat it with her Valkyria powers, even at the cost of her own life.
Welkin runs to stop her. Talks some sense into her. What if she's not human? She's still Alicia, the kind girl, the future baker, and the love of his life...
The scene at the end is so~ romantic!
Still, we have no plans that are capable of stopping the Empire, now...
