Battledream Chronicle

2015 · 1h 48m · Science Fiction, Animation

IMDb 6.6

A 6.6 on IMDb signals this sci-fi anime has decent ambitions but uneven execution—interesting dystopian premise with a VR death-game twist, but likely marred by pacing or narrative issues. Skip it unless you're a hardcore animation completist; there are better sci-fi options tonight.

Plot

In the future the Empire of Mortemonde has enslaved almost all nations on Earth. Each month everyone is forced to play the virtual reality computer game Battledream. Only those who reach a score of 1000 points are allowed to live one more month. And on top of that you can also really die in the game. Impenetrable firewalls make sure that nobody can cheat or break the codes. Syanna Meridian, a fearless young slave, decides to fight this inhuman system, together with her devoted friend Alytha Mercuri. There’s only one free nation left on the planet, Sablereve, but its leaders prefer to run rather than to fight. It’s up to Syanna to convince them to join her, but to achieve that she has to win one final game against the best players of Mortemonde, Isaac Ravengorn and Alexander Torquemada.
