Judging from the title, which has Jo (meaning "beginning"), I think there will be more parts?

Well If there can be waifu baits every season I am pretty sure there can be fujobaits as well, nothing surprising.

Nope, not even going to touch this with a ten-foot pole unless they do something about that MMD level animation.

Eh I think the CGI looks weird. Not bad but just weird overall. Now as for the staff I don't think its that bad but I honestly believe that Seiji can pull it off. I hate Expelled from Paradise but he did a good job choreography wise in itself... even if I wasn't pleased by it overall.

Studio DIRECTIONS' are the guys who did that one awful CGI OP for Meikaku City Actors, so don't get your hopes up that the movie will be looking any better. Shame about Horgiuchi tho.

Key visual looks good. Not clear if they are using MMD parts for the movie. I prefer not.
PV is by someone who creates MMD videos. I found their page here.
