Valkyria Chronicles is a JRPG. The battle system alone doesn't decide that, otherwise you'd have a whole load of subgenres.

Besides Disgaea is there as well, that is way more strategy oriented than Valkyria is. So if that is a JRPG then there shouldn't be any question about Valkyria...


Valkyria Chronicles is a tactical RPG for the sole reason it's played on a tactical map. Like Disgaea, advance wars, FF tactics or Resonance of Fate.

That doesn't stop them from being JRPGs though...


Except T-RPG is an actual genre, while J-RPG is mostly some kind of brand, as there is no J-RPG typical gameplay. We are supposedly talking genre.
