When Imperial forces attack the small border town of Bruhl, Welkin Gunther, son of late General Belgen Gunther, is forced to fight for his life alongside Town Watch captain Alicia Melchiott. Along with Welkin's adopted sister Isara, the three escape to Gallia's capitol and subsequently join the country's militia forces. As members of the newly-formed Squad 7, they must work to repel the invading Imperial forces and discover the true purpose of the invasion itself.
This anime retells the story of the PS3-game with minor changes, so if you know the story from the game already, you know what will happen the anime.
Although i played the game, i still enjoyed the series, because it really has a good story and animation is well done. The music is used from the game but that is not a negative aspect, because it was good in the game, so why should it not be good here? The characters are mostly intact, i had the feeling though, that some characters didnt get much screentime, although they are leads in the game. Some characters differ slightly from their game counterparts, while others did get more background and further developement with this series.
Overall, its a nice anime and great when you want to experience the story of the game but dont want to play the game itself.
