I didn't remember this so I looked at the original news and I'm pretty sure I dismissed this without even reading the synopsis because the cover seemed like some bishie thing.

Man, I was wrong. I apologize. Damn this looks good.

I'm honestly a bit on the fence about the staff but that PV just tells me to shut up. J.C. Staff has really been bringing some good looking stuff to the table. That's a freaking 3 minute PV too.

Kinda surprised Iizuka Haruko pulled off designs like this too, doesn't feel like her style at all, but they are really good.

Honestly the whole thing just feels like Nakamura Ryousuke's team but J.C. Staff's style lately has been going more in that direction, looks lovely.

And with a PV of this length and with a Fall premiere, I'm hoping this is 2 cours.

Wow, this looks really good especially the PV. Watching it for sure when it airs.

The visual quality and atmosphere feeling blew me away. I recall reading the manga before too.

This looks phenomenal. The PV is amazing, the character designs are wonderful, and the staff list is packed with talent. Shigatsu's director, Shirobako's script writer, and Summer Wars and Madoka's art director? Sign me up!!

Nice Seiyuu choices. Looks really interesting - the PV just made me order the manga, because I really wanna know more about this. I'm in love with the art/character design.

The visual looks better than the previous, just as I thought that J.C Staff will get this. Looks promising.

This looks great. Definitely getting my hopes up for sure. The only thing that bothers me is the pick for the director. Every Ishiguro work disappointed me considerably.

Hmm this seems pretty interesting. Although I haven't seen Occultic Nine yet but if it is the same director from shows like YLIA and Lance... I still have a 50-50 chance. But, the rest is sold.

Yeah, I had this on my mind since it was first announced (you still can't put it on ptw but whatever). It's looks promising but the choice of the director is giving me a headache. I feel like this is going to go the Comet Lucifer route...

Hey, what do you know, I guessed the studio right. Looks really good. The thing that really makes this amazing for me is the song, damn, this might be something really special.

I'm so, so tired of these 'boy meets girl in a fantasy world' stories, and the fact that this is directed by the guy who did Shigatsu and O;9 guarantees it'll be style over substance (which I'm sure there's little of anyway). It will look pretty, that's probably it.

The IP looks alright, (though fantasy tropes in anime tend to be some of the dumbest, hopefully this is more mature) but the staff seems lacklustre.
