Arpeggio Of Blue Steel
In some ways, it feels like I’ve already seen a lot of the first episode based on the sheer number of promos that are coming out for this series. The show, set for debut on October 7th, has unveiled its sixth promo. And it’s one worth staying through to the end for as it gets kind of cute and weird in all the right ways. The fall series has been gaining a lot of attention over the last couple of months with its visuals and the action pieces we’ve been seeing and this one will cement that all that more. Known as Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio in Japan, the series is based on the manga by Ark Performance, which has seven volumes on hand so far in Japan, the new show is being directed by Seiji Kishi based on scripts by Makoto Uezu.
Plot Concept: In the story, a Fleet of Fog loaded with super weapons suddenly appear all over the world. Without the ability to withstand this fleet, humanity was defeated and could no longer travel the seas. 17 years after the devastating naval war, Chihaya Gunzou and his friends somehow commandeer a Fleet of Fog submarine and rename it I-401. Together with Iona, they take on the Fleet of Fog.
