These 4 are all Muv Luv characters, though 1 of them is also a cameo:
Alpha: The one in green with orange eyes. She is an anthropomorphic BETA (Destroyer class) who appears in Chronicles Vol. 1 in a parody which also features Total Eclipse characters called "Joushin Eishi Cryska".
Orel (Oryouru) (Oryol?): The one in red with green eyes. She is also an anthropomorphic BETA (Tank class) who appears in Chronicles Vol. 2 under the same parody. Since they never actually say her name, I'm just guessing it's pronounced "Orel", which means "eagle" in Russian. More likely, she's probably named after "Oryol", which was a Russian battleship (and Russian city which the battleship was named after). That'd be my guess, since Total Eclipse mostly deals with what the Soviet Union is up to. "Oryol" also means "eagle".
Dorosuto (Drozd?): The one in red with yellow eyes. She's also an anthropomorphic Tank class. I suppose her being a Tank class might mean her name is a pun. I think she might be named after the Soviet tank attachment called Drozd, named after the bird. That's the only thing I can think of.
Seijyurou Makabe: The boy. He's a parody of Lelouch from Code Geass. (This is probably thanks to the fact that Bandai is making the toys for MuvLuv, and Bandai owns Sunrise studio which made Code Geass - it could also have nothing to do with a company agreement, as it's not the first time Age has simply parodied another company's character, for example Andromeda Shun as Ibuki Jun.) Seijyurou's from Chronicles Vol. 2 in the short story "Alternative Chronicles Adoration."

Seijyurou has the most innocent mind EVER. His story is hilarious because of this. He goes to Britain to learn to be a better pilot, I guess, and ends up staying with the German main characters from "The Euro Front", another side story to Muv Luv. It's rather hard to explain, but three of the main girls from The Euro Front grow really attached to how little and cute he is (apparently he's really young or just really short). Thanks to this, he has mental breakdowns every time they hug him or even get really close to him, lol. There are plenty of epic jokes, but I'm not going to get into them. Play the game yourself. Seriously, do that. It's great.

Lulu is now, thanks to this mini-story, one of my favourite characters in the series.

The reason Alpha, Oryol, and Drozd (I'm assuming those are their names) are clinging to him here is because they figured out how much of a weak constitution he has and are just playing with his mind, hah.

The background is from Alternative Chronicles Adoration, but I've tried to add snow to it. The original version was just grass and didn't have as many clouds. I tried my best, but I just cant get it the way I want it. Oh well. There's your crappy snow effect, lol.

I don't know how I would react with I had anthropomorphic BETA girls clinging to me. Now, if some of you haven't seen the Muv-Luv anime, BETA are MAN-EATERS!!! Do you have a link to the miny stories?

I found it strange that Total Eclipse put so much emphasise on the BETA eating people. They're not on Earth to eat people. They're miners. Humans just get in their way, so they deal with them in the best way possible, lol.
Also, I feel kind of sad for people who have seen Total Eclipse as their first impression of Muv Luv. It's not even remotely as good as pretty much any of the other stories in the KimiIta series (or any of the other Muv Luvs, for that matter) (except maybe Schwarzesmarken. Those two are on the same level.)

The mini stories are on the 3 Muv Luv Chronicles discs (and the Altered Fable, Supplement, and Ayu Mayu Alternative discs) (oh, and Haruko Maniax).

I don't know, I've been really enjoying the Total Eclipse series, but this is the first series that I've seen. Many people think that the man-eating alien horde killing humanity is a cliche plot, but I'm liking it. I don't really have much to complain about except for the American and Soviet leaders being douchebags and fighting humanity instead of the aliens.

Total Eclipse has been fun so far, though I do feel the story and narrative are really rushed. I mean, you see the BETA in the first 2 episodes, yet in the games, you dont even see the BETA in the entire first game they're introduced in (Muv Luv Unlimited). You wait until the next game to finally even see them which made them all-the-scarier, in my opinion.

Ah, yes. I like how the US and USSR are portrayed. In ML:Unlimited, Yuuko brings up a quote which I think was from John F. Kennedy. I cant remember the exact wording, but it was something like: "The day aliens invade is the day humanity will work together." And yet, the games try to show how wrong that idea of humanity is.

I don't know anything about Unlimited really, but from the sounds of the games, I'd probably have gotten angry if I bought a game, expecting to kill aliens, and it turns out they're not even in the game. That's like watching the 2.5hrs of Avatar and just when the big battle is about to start, the credits start rolling.

Haha, well, I guess it's not a "game" in that same sense. They're visual novels. The only "game" part is making choices for what the main character will do at certain points.
Besides, this series is, and has always been about relationships between the characters and romance/drama (in one way or another). The whole BETA sub-plot is only to frame the story in the alternate multiverses. It was a huge, HUGE shock when you go from slice-of-life/tragedy "Kimi ga Nozomu Eien" into a sequel that suddenly has a parallel dimension where aliens have invaded. I can honestly say wasn't expecting that back then, haha. At the time, I wasn't really old enough to appreciate brilliant writing, but I absoluetly loved the complete genre whip-lash.

...I am suddenly reminded of the fact that if age or anyone else made a harem game where you court the BETA gijinkas, I would play it so fast regardless of how mind-numbingly stupid it is.

Especially if the protagonist was Takeru, Yuuya, or... yeah, sure, Lelouch too. XD

...Ehehe, stopping now before I give anyone (including myself) any bad ideas...

I want another Lulu game period. XD
He needs to come back! Maybe his story can be told as a filler in the Euro Front anime, if they ever get around to making it.

Those loli BETA girls are crazy. Alpha is pretty resistant to being with humans (but since her story is basically just for the ero scenes, she has no choice), but Orel and Dorosuto are like rapists! Tiny rapists.

Mmmmmm, yandere harem game where every single one of the girls is nuts... that isn't Higurashi because that's not really so much a harem game...

I dig crazy characters, though, not gonna lie. Regardless of their reason for being crazy, if they even have one. I would still buy the crap out of this hypothetical game. :[

What about the green-haired nurse from Kiminozo? She's probably the craziest one of all. I personally dont mind her ending, but some people I've read from HATED it.

Homura Manami, right? I think she had two endings; the one that was in the original game which was famous for being squicky as hell for a lot of people, and the other, tamer one which I guess was added in due to complaints about the former.

...Man I don't know if I want to know what a side game about her would be like. O_O It's not the extremity of the kinks that made me side-eye it a little bit (even though I am not one for watersports or... genderswap, at least not in that way), but the fact that it came across as questionably abusive and manipulative. I don't remember much about it, so I could be mistaken, but I think she forced Takayuki to undergo the gender reassignment surgery against his will, and then had him more or less on a tight leash after that while she essentially Stockholmed him into acting out her fantasies?

I almost wonder how age would spin that. And I also don't at the same time. Uh.

Xorte-Renshe In reply to qu-ko [2011-09-22 03:56:45 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, Manami. That was her name. And yes, the later versions of the game added another ending for her.

Hahaha, Manami Maniax. I'd love to see that get made. XD

Afterthought: what also bugged me about her original route is that it was more disturbing in the way you don't really want to experience to me than it was if it had been built up to. I remember thinking it was a really jarring switch... though it might've been intended to be a shock ending or something, I dunno.
