They believe Blue Archive will dominate this season

Members of a prominent commentary forum in Japan have generated quite a stir by stating that the anime adaptation of "Blue Archive" will be the best anime of the Spring-2024 season, which is currently airing. This statement is also supported by the solid debut of the series within the Top 10 of the season on the MyAnimeList site, with a good rating of 8.00 points.

Confidence in the success of "Blue Archive" doesn't seem to be unfounded, especially considering that the series is backed by Yostar Pictures, a company with experience in producing high-quality anime. In addition, "Blue Archive" is one of the most popular video games in the Asia-Pacific region, indicating a strong fan following that will likely translate into a huge interest in the anime adaptation.

The video game "Blue Archive" has seen fluctuations in popularity since its release, initially criticized due to a lack of content. However, with subsequent improvements, the game has enjoyed a significant increase in its fan base, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, including countries such as Southeast Asia, Japan, and South Korea.

What sets "Blue Archive" apart is its unique focus on the dynamic between slice-of-life and darker plot elements. While in other gacha-type games, the elements of everyday life are by-products of characters waiting to fight their opponents, in "Blue Archive" it's the exact opposite. The main and event stories complement each other in the world-building and overall atmosphere.

Although the success of "Blue Archive" in the Spring-2024 season looks promising, it's important to remember that the nature of fads and the popularity of gacha games tend to decline over time. For now, though, fans are excited to see how the series will bring the game's experience to the screen and how the story will play out in the anime.

"Another series that's being overrated from the first episode, it will be good to give it a review."
"Wow, this is too positive an omen, will it come true?"
"The content of the image seems good to me and the characters too, it seems that it has everything to succeed."
"It's not an exaggeration to say that the Treaty of Eden Arc is the best thing ever. Too perfect to be ruined in the adaptation."
"Maybe, but I still prefer the Princess Connect story!"
"It's the same pattern as Fate/Grand Order, which was severely overrated when the anime adaptation came along."
"Very nice and all, but how many people really pay attention to the story of a gacha?"
"The quality of Blue Archive's story is quite high, far above other games in the genre."
"It's the same kind of otaku who keep praising Lycoris Recoil as the best story of the decade."
"The story of the Blue Archive is incredible, there's no doubt about it."
"Fate/Grand Order proved that anime adaptations of gacha video games don't work."
"The problem with Fate/Grand Order is that it has a lot of arcs and definitely some pale in comparison to each other. There are a lot of otakus who appreciate stories like Blue Archive's, where the slice-of-life is predominant."
"Arknights wasn't as good as the fans said it would be, but it turned out decent. However, to say that Blue Archive will dominate the season is definitely something to worry about."
"First of all, the story of any gacha video game is always bullshit."
"The story is below average and the gameplay mechanics are rubbish, but the characters are pretty cute."
"It's pretty good when compared to other games in the genre, but when it competes with manga stories or light novels, it leaves a lot to be desired."
"A game where the protagonist doesn't have a personality doesn't seem like a good story to me in the first place."
