It's dumb fun. A 3 for quality brought up to a 6 for being a silly, good time.
If you're wondering if this is some sort of hidden gem? Not really. But it's cheesy and kinda bad but in a fun way. I wouldn't say it's "so bad it's good," but if you're a Sega fan and like pointing at the random little references (at least 1/3 of the MC's lines are just SA1 quotes in the dub), it's worth a shot, especially if you can get friends along for the ride to riff on it a bit. Just keep in mind there's there's some of that classic "2000s anime pervertry," even if it finished airing the same year as "Attack on Titan" started.
Otherwise this is a safe skip.

When I found out there was a Anime based on the console war between Nintendo and Sega I immediately went and watched it
Honestly the premise is cooler the the actual show itself, the storyline is pretty lacking (But to be fair there's only three episodes) and character wise it's pretty plain with none of the characters really standing out that much just generic NPCs
Now I haven't read the Manga but I'll probably read and review that as well just to see if it's any different, There was a lot of potential here but sadly the only mildly interesting thing here was the parodies of Sonic and ect
My rankings for this just a plain 5/10, Not worst thing in the world but definitely not the greatest

As I have seen from other people reviewing this anime, is based on different video games? I am not sure as I am not that cultured in video games.
Given the fact that the anime had only 3 episodes, I didn`t really get to appreciate it, sometimes animes that are this short are not well made. Usually, if an anime is short, it should have all the key elements in those few episodes, but I feel like with this, it only brought me confusion.
Overall, the art style is cute and simple, it reminds me of Sinbad. The characters are simple and I do not remember much.

I can sum this anime up with the 8 deadly words: I don't care what happens to these people.
Oh boy, this OVA. Let me tell you, I am not going to be pleasant towards it. I'm honestly glad this only had 3 episodes. Have you ever wanted to see an anime about the 90s console war between Nintendo and Sega, even though we should be way past that now? I kinda hope you aren't, because this will be just a waste of your time.
Story: I'll admit, despite it being ahead of its time, I was a bit intrigued by the premise, especially since I love video games and I have fondness towards Nintendo and Sega, especially Nintendo. However, that intrigue was lost when it became obvious what it really was. This anime, for some reason, chooses to be really biased towards Sega while painting Nintendo as the vill…

STORY: The plot containing the battle between two kingdoms is very interesting. I really enjoy watching through the Segua Army's perspective on winning the war. There are a lot of gaming references that are hilarious and at times mind blowing! Note: This anime ONLY has 3 episodes.
CHARACTERS: Since there are a lot of gaming references in the anime, the anime is mainly focused on one character!
SEGUA ARMY = Sega
NINTELDO KINGDOM = Nintendo
Gear = (Sonic). He is passionate, strong, powerful and has super speed.
OVERALL: Not bad, but needs A LOT OF WORK! 3 episodes did not do it justice. Since the anime did not use ALL of the characters from both kingdoms... I feel that it is waste! I recommend this anime to everyone who loves to see their favourite gaming characters from their respective…

Since I recently finished what is now my favorite anime, xxxHolic, and I have a tendency to start a show I end up hating after I discover what becomes my favorite anime, I decided to try and watch something short that looked really bad so I wouldn't waste too much time; so, I chose to watch this show. Man what a mistake that was!
What is Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de (which translates to mean World War Blue, and as such, I will be referring to the series as it's translated name), you might ask? Well, have you seen Excel Saga? Have you seen Wreck-It Ralph? Have you ever inhaled paint fumes to get high? If the answer to those 3 questions is "Yes", then congratulations! You've seen World War Blue.
The story of World War Blue is basically a fantasy version of the console war between Nintendo and…

Do not watch this anime. I'm not saying this like how people always do with Boku no Pico to get them to watch it NO do NOT watch this anime. I haven't been this bored from an anime since the first two episodes of Bakemonogatari.
While the story is somewhat decent, the way its shown makes it feel like an animated version of someone's weird crossover fanfiction (and it literally is but ??? Eh. people eat up light novel adaptions everyday). The unreasonable amounts of Girls Gettin Touched And Randomly Censored But Naked felt extremely out of place since most of the scenes are primarily action based and serious (as well as Tetris Character. Fuck That Guy and Fuck Characters Like Those).
Characters were uhh... there. Sonic The Main Character was the least annoying out of all of them (thank g…

Personally I enjoyed what I did see of this, of course considering I'm a teenage guy whose always liked shounen anime, I did not think it was good enough to continue on by reading the manga. I think that the anime could have potential if they would make more episodes, however with the very few episodes they actually made it makes it mediocre at best. I agree with other views in that I believe it was a good idea, but it didn't really pan out.

If you are looking for a good anime with an engaging story, interesting characters, stunning artwork and an overall epic soundtrack then this anime is not for you, and let me tell you why.
Aoi Sekai no Chuusin de also known as World War Blue is the anime equivalent of a Nintendo vs Sega parody done by 5th Avenue, now you would think by that statement that this would be an over the top, comedic anime with many humorous references to Sega and Nintendo. However instead of taking this route it decides to go into an in-depth serious tone which does not suit the mood of this show at all, this show completely fails in the sense that it was a parody and tried to be a dark and serious anime with lots of death and emotions.
The Characters of WWB are some of the weakest cast of characters i have e…

This was a pretty Bad Ova Overall. its looks and sounds fine on paper it even sounds interesting. Unfortunately translating this to a Ova was not a good thing. Reading the Synopsis you can clearly see where the draw for most people would be in that its based on many video game references but they are pretty poor and not well referenced. This Ova had some interesting ideas but they failed to make it into anything noteworthy and the product suffers even more because of it.
The Greatest Flaw of this anime is the characters cause you just cant grow to like them at all. Theres is nearly no character development in this Ova so you don't grow attached to anybody or particularly care when somebody dies. It tries to emphasise emotion in a few very well made scenarios but because you have no prior…
