Btw, for those who are wondering, this is done by A-1 studioe which is owned by Sony themselves. They have been pretty good as of late: i.e. kannagi if you have watched it in the 2008 winter anime season.

Now you just need that 300 page artbook!

Haven't watched the first episode yet, been pretty busy. looking forward to it though.

Alas, it isn't on sale yet!

That explains a lot why some of the scenes concentrate on showing as much of Alicias legs as possible :D

Are we getting a new episode today?

Yeah it should be up in about one hour.

Second episode is up.

Where is mah HD link?

Wow, just finished downloading and watching. They've really rushed through the first 2 episodes IMHO, but I think that the pace is going to be slower from now on.

Welkin seems more clueless in the anime... although a better word will be blunt or rational. Blunt is the best word I think.

It's kinda cool to see the racism theme featured even more prominently, although they did feature it plenty in the video game.

The tanks were taken out with one shot, so that might bother some people who played the game, but I think they're going to save the fact that the radiator's the weakness for future episodes, when they face against better tanks.

It's cool to see the whole squad (for the anime) in the next episode preview. The next episode looks like it's going to be introductions, and the mission where you do a sneak attack by floating the tank across the river (and the preview looks pretty action packed). I hope they do what I did in the game and get Marina up on the sniping tower and shoot all the ragnite cases =P

Some bad stuff were some pretty choppy animations in some parts. And how everyone seemed to just teleport everywhere in the battle for Bruhl. But those are pretty minor, since the real meat of the story and action is about to come.
