Seems like a good ol' guy trapped in a game/fantasy but at least there's seems to have a twist.
Why not i guess.

At least the OST seems decent so far.

Another one of these? I'll probably end up watching this since it sounds a little interesting and slightly different compared to other "trapped in a fantasy world" titles, but I'll keep my expectations low.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

It's much more like Tate no Yuusha than Mondaiji-tachi. And for once, the source material is actually pretty interesting. Rather than treating his ability like something to abuse for his own gain, MC ends up being trapped in cycles of getting killed and has to figure out how to not die to get out of the loops.


Hopefully White Fox budgets accordingly and saves it for when the action really gets good. Some of the fights are really cool. It's also good to see Takahashi Rie getting the lead role here. I liked her in Comet Lucifer but her Kaon wasn't given near enough time to showcase her voice.

Isekai literally translates to "another world" so it's a genre that englobes all the variations of teleported/reincarnated to another world.

Sorta of looking forward to it, meant to read the manga but didn't, will watch it now.
No comments on the staff, Directors still pretty new, script is alright, waiting for another PV.

By the way, White Fox doesn't link to anything.

Lots of sleeping little girls with different fancy hair colors surrounding our normal highschool boy. 2 maids and 1 ojou-sama type spotted. It's a light novel alright.

Cautiously pessimistic.

Nah, I was referring to the person who was asking about what "isekai" meant. Since it was capitalised in the original post I assumed it was in reference to a specific series. I haven't actually seen Mondaijitachi (though it looks decent enough) :x. But I'm an idiot and misread things.

Anyway, I think I'll be skipping this one initially, since there aren't any seiyuu in it who I'm interested in, and it doesn't draw my attention much to begin with. But eh.

If it can be half as interesting as All You Need Is Kill, I'll buy in.
Or if they include Tom Cruise a la Edge of tomorrow.
One of those two conditions, please.

Seems that way but it's better this way because Steins;Gate Zero should take a lot of time developing so that we can have great animation, soundtracks, etc.

It seems like so many good shows are going to show up in winter/spring. This one looks like it'll be good as well. Another one to the plan to watch list.

Been extremely excited for this ever since the PV. The MC sounds perfect, the OST is glorious in it, the background art looks excellent and love the character designs. Plus the whole tragic time travel part has me highly interested. Really hoping for a 2-cour as gives more time to connect with the characters allowing the drama to be more effective (well for me it is at least).

I've seen a lot of people compare this series to Steins;Gate and what are the odds that White Fox will be the ones animating this? Hopefully they bring their A-game.
