If Nikke were to be adapted into an anime, how could it succeed?
1. Show plenty of firearm usage. Many reviews of Blue Archive mention that it focuses more on close-quarters combat than firearms, making the feeling of shooting guns less prominent. Since Nikke's combat is primarily gun-based, it would be great to see most Nikkes, except perhaps Janghwa and Hongryun, using their guns frequently. 2. Nail the beginning. It's crucial to decide whether to start with the Ark Guardian Operation, Maria-N, or the tutorial section. Similar to 'The Detective Is Already Dead,' making the first episode around 40 minutes long could be beneficial for understanding the world-building. 3. Animation quality. This is extremely important. Nikke already has animated cutscenes, so a decision needs to be made whether to use the same team that worked on those or to bring in an external animation studio. 4. Voice actors and story. This is the most critical aspect. An anime adaptation will inevitably involve script changes. It's essential to preserve the original story's essence while capturing Nikke's unique feel, ensuring the emotional impact of Nikke's story is conveyed strongly enough to bring tears to everyone's eyes. If these points are addressed, I believe there's a high chance of success.

Wow, you've really thought this through! (dudung) Lulu wants everyone to cry or laugh when the anime comes out. I hope the shooting scenes look cool!

I think it's important to decide the target age group and what to focus on. If it's story-driven, you could keep add-ons like firearms basic and focus on the story, or for military enthusiasts, you could detail the firearms while keeping the story basic. I believe we need to decide how the anime will proceed before we can tell. Personally, I think it's best to cover everything, but I believe the art style is the most crucial. Because if the art style is good, it covers about half of everything else.

Here's what I think is most important. The Commander's voice The Commander's face If you really wanted to hide the Commander's voice and face, couldn't you have expressed it through gestures or by having Rapi cover their face with her chest... I really want to shave off the Commander's bangs lol

If it's well-made, I think it'll be good material. It seems surprisingly difficult for an anime to be well-made.

Flashy martial arts seem like a good choice.

The art style is great, but I think we also need to consider which company will take on the project. Couldn't they just cast the voice actors from Nikke?
