Muv-Luv Unlimited is the second of the Muv-Luv Visual Novel trilogy and follows where Muv-Luv Extra left off. One day, Takeru wakes up to find that his entire home town is in ruins. In place of his neighbor's house is a crashed Humongous Mecha. Naturally, Takeru begins to have spasms of nerdy joy at seeing real mecha. Since you can only appreciate a destroyed mecha for so long, eventually he begins wandering around the rubble and eventually decides to head up to the school, which looks a little different today. As in, it has become a military base with guards and a massive antenna. Lacking proper authorization or a reasonable excuse for what he is doing in this town, he is quickly arrested and thrown into the military prison until the head scientist comes to visit. Said head scientist is none other than Yuuko, the stranger of his two teachers.However, all is not well quite so easily. Yuuko clearly does not have any idea who Takeru is, and after a brief conversation, it is established that Takeru is not in the world he knows any longer. Instead, he has been dropped into an apocalyptic warzone where over three-quarters of humanity has been wiped out by the mysterious aliens known only as the BETA. Lacking any other ways to get by or go home, Takeru is more or less conscripted and to his delight will be entering the training program to pilot the mechas. On top of that, he is given a strangely high access to the base's inner workings. As he joins his new training squad, he is shocked to see that they are all familiar faces. They are, in fact, all of his love interests from '"Extra'' as well as Mikoto, who is now definitely a girl. Just like Yuuko, they are alternate versions of the people he knows, and thus they do not recognize him. Strangely, though, Sumika is not there. In fact, no one there has even heard of her. Unfortunately, Takeru has little time to deal with this, as compared to actual soldiers he is dreadfully unprepared.Unlimited is generally viewed as the point in the Visual Novel franchise when the series begins to get interesting. Not only does it show us how a typical harem protagonist fares in a warzone, it also shows what the other characters can be when placed into a different situation and how everyone is forced to mature. Plot threads are established for the most highly acclaimed part of the series Muv-Luv Alternative which, like similar threads from Muv-Luv Extra will take some time to bear fruit.Has a continuation of its timeline in the Visual Novel series Muv-Luv Unlimited: The Day After.On September 25th 2015, having gained domestic acclaim and a sizable international fanbase, âge, in collaboration with Degica (a Japan-based e-commerce company and video game publisher), officially launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund an official English localization of Unlimited, Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Alternative. Within less than a day, âge achieved their funding goal of $US 250,000. The campaign concluded on November 4th, 2015, having exceeded the target amount by more than $US 1,000,000. | |

Just One More Level!: When one of the girls discovers Takeru's GameGuy, he passes it off as a training simulator, and lends it to the girl along with a different game. This leads to her getting addicted to the game for an entire week until the battery eventually dies. | |

Multiple Endings: There's less divergence when compared to Extra, but the endings change depending on who Takeru chooses to romance, and whether he convinces them to leave the plant, or stay and fight with him. | |

Death from Above | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_1c398324 | comment |
Death from Above: In contrast to the UN and Japanese Army tactics of using orbital divers to break into and shut down hives, the US Army prefers dropping G-Bombs, one after the other, on hives. Only after then are American TSFs sent in, to mop up whatever opposition remains. This ties into the in-universe perception of Americans as having the "shoot first, ask questions later" mentality. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: After the BETA invasion, humanity is reduced from six billion to 1 billion, a substantial fraction (if not the majority) of the male population is dead from fighting an overwhelmingly-powerful enemy (to the point that the draft age had been lowered and military service for women had become compulsory), and the entirety of Eurasia is overrun by the BETA (with 24 of the 26 existing hives, including the first and biggest, within its confines). North America is (temporarily) safe, at the cost of half of Canada being turned into a nuclear wasteland. Australia, Africa and South America are still safe as well - for the time being. | |

By the time of the official international release, not only does promotional material make no effort to hide Unlimited's premise, it is playable right from the beginning even without doing Extra first. | |

Breather Episode: After the drama following the cast's first field operation, things dramatically slow down with superior officers at Yokohama Base suddenly being very busy and not issuing the cadets any orders or new training. To shake everyone out of their slump, Takeru convinces Squadron 207 to throw a Christmas party. It's a success and Takeru gets to hook up with the player-selected love interest. However, the light-heartedness of the arc is dragged down by the behaviour of their immediate superiors, Marimo and Yuuko; whose ominous words herald the crushing events of the finale. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: Unlimited is a good deal more serious than Extra though overall it's still fairly lighthearted. Still, when the first scene is Takeru waking up in the ruins of his home town it comes as quite the contrast to the silly harem antics from before. | |

Gender Is No Object | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_a627a930 | comment |
Gender Is No Object: Takeru is the only man in a six-person unit. Justified in that the men were the first to go out and fight and die against the BETA, and as such, most soldiers are now female (also it doesn't actually make much difference for a mecha pilot). | |

Alternate History | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_a86069f | comment |
Alternate History: While the Japan of the world of Unlimited/Alternative lost World War II, it was not nuked and instead the mainland had to be invaded, leading to an occupation that lasted until the BETA invaded. | |

Totally Radical | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_aa42306e | comment |
Totally Radical: An interesting version - due to the alternate history taken by the Unlimited and Alternative worlds, much of the slang that Takeru uses in the Extra world doesn't exist, requiring him to often explain what said slang means to people in those worlds whenever he uses it. | |

Nuke 'em | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_ac320c0e | comment |
Nuke 'em During the BETA invasion the Soviet government retreated all the way to the northeastern tip of Siberia while attempting a scorched-earth policy using tactical nuclear weapons; it didn't work, however as they acted too late. The United States, upon learning of a BETA hive landing in neighboring Canada did not waste any time and nuked the hive to oblivion, turning half of poor Canada into a wasteland. The later US standard tactic of dropping G-Bombs - experimental bombs made with an alien element recovered from BETA hives which are more powerful (and even less well-understood) than nukes - to destroy hives. This strategy was implemented worldwide during Alternative V. | |

Faint in Shock | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_bee8baee | comment |
Faint in Shock: After Takeru truly realizes that there's a serious possibility of him dying in combat against the BETA, he faints in relief upon learning that the BETA are not going to attack the base he's stationed at. He takes it as further proof of his weakness in comparison to the rest of his squad, and beats himself up over it. However, none of the military cast holds it against him. His Sergeant is uncharacteristically kind and supportive, stating that breakdowns like that are a very common reaction among recruits and no one blames him for it. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Muv-Luv has at least three general sources: Mecha and Tokusatsu Series. Muv-Luv and its prequel Akane Maniax has a ton of shout-outs to these. A partial list includes Tekkaman, Ultraman, Getter Robo, UFO Robo Grendizer, Raideen, Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack (see Colony Drop above), and Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory. Science Fiction Literature. VN chapters are named after plot-relevant sci-fi novels or short stories (most notably Arthur C. Clarke's The Songs of Distant Earth, which gave its name to Unlimited's last chapter and ED). Video Games. From (among others) Virtual-ON (Valgern-On), Tekken (Dokken), Fire Emblem (the strategy RPG Takeru lends to Chizuru; Tactics Ogre in the official translation), and Metal Gear Solid (the game Takeru lends to Ayamine, in addition to a line from Takeru where he says he's not a member of "SOCKSHOUND"). | |

| Muv-Luv Unlimited (Visual Novel) / int_d73e0f7f | comment |
"Ray of Hope" Ending: With the failure of Yuuko's plan, Alternative IV, Alternative V, Operation Babylon, is implemented: a small fraction of the remaining human population (possibly including Takeru's girlfriend, whom he can convince to live on) flees the planet, and the rest go out with a bang, nuking Eurasia with the entire G-Bomb arsenal in the hope that the BETA will be stopped from following the survivors. Takeru himself is shown to carry on the fight, refusing to give up, and if his love interest left the planet, she's shown to be safe and sound with her and Takeru's daughter. | |
