They experience the ups and downs of high school life before a certain incident leads them to the truth of this world. Weird. Welp, it's fantasy so I'll pick it up |
    |
| Seems fine I guess but the fantasy genre is somewhat getting boring for me. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| To anyone that has read the light novel/knows about it; is this a harem? |
| mehhhh sounds like yet another generic harem, but I believe in KyoAni so I might watch |
 |
| Misaki Kuno is getting a role in this series?! I look forward to her character. |
NO FUCKING WAY. KAMI-SAMA! Kyoto Animation's primary director (Tatsuya Ishihara) is on this, so I have high hopes now. |
 |
| If this is any better than the gutter-tier Amagi Brilliant Park, I'll pop the champagne. It's KyoAni so I HAVE to watch at least three episodes, but I'm expecting torture :/ If it's actually good I'll probably go comatose with surprise. |
 |
| Going to be expecting some anime original stuff as there's not too much to adapt. Hope to see a PV soon. |
|
| A haiku: Magical highschool KyoAni turns to satan Light novels burn bright |
 |
| I don't expect much from this based on what I've heard but it should be fairly entertaining. I hope. |
 |
| Tatsuya director? oh my god! Gonna watch this for sure |
| nice one kyoani. mixing things up a bit, shaking up the industry, this is what i like to see. except that isn't happening |
| And thus KyoAni succumbs to the cancer that is battle academy harem LN adaptations. Great. This will only encourage more to be made, so expect a lot more of these later in 2016. |
| from look on the anime main site i really like the chars design and it also have interesting Synopsis, cant wait :) |
 |
| i hope this one is not typical harem anime T^T Musqela said: NO FUCKING WAY. KAMI-SAMA! +1 |
| Honestly, I avoid LN adaptations for good reason nowadays but I'll give this the three episode rule. I still have to slowly finish Gakusen and Rakudai...sighs. The title of this is interesting and the premise actually reminds me of Charlotte plus fantasy. Except this is a LN thing so it'll be completely different. KyoAni, why you do this? Japan why can't you produce less generic shit. (it probably isn't generic but harem lns in schools are too common these days.) |
 |
| KyoAni joining the cancer known as the "fantasy" high school light novel (no Kyoukai no Kanata doesn't count). Well, there isn't too much source for it so maybe they'll do something more with it... |
| Tutturu ~ |
I'm in. KyoAni makes it another plus. |
  |
| Great staff and if KyoAni takes the liberal route it could be very entertaining. |
| Great great. |
Hongu said: And thus KyoAni succumbs to the cancer that is battle academy harem LN adaptations. Great. IKR truth is I've skipped every anime with this premisse, so I'm gonna give it a try because I really like kyoani, and the cast. But yeah the only anime by kyoani I dropped was haruhi suzumiya soooo... Lets just wait and see. |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| Well if they don't cry a lot, I'll watch. |
 |
| Seems interesting Will watch |
| I must admit that the promo art doesn't look much like KyoAni at all, it looks kind of generic. But I trust KyoAni and hope this will be good. Tbh,i don't think it will be quite a "generic battle school harem" I think it will be similar to Kyoukai no Kanata or maybe even Haruhi (characters have supernatural stuff going on but its told through a SoL kind of aspect) |
| YES KYOANI YESSSSSSSSSSS YESSS SHIMONO GOT THE LEAD. I'm too happy lol. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Another fantasy ... Pass |
 |
| Fantasy anime with action and cute girls are always good. Never get bored with these types of anime |
| Might be alright. I'll check it out. |
| It's time you look inward and begin asking yourself the big question, "Who are you, and what do you want?" - Uncle Iroh |
| Huh, Thread Starter didn't mention SCREEN MODE performing the OP song? Too bad, cause this band sounded pretty badass in both Kuroko and Yatterman and might be the only reason this show's worth giving a try. |
-Anabelle- said: Are you kidding?To anyone that has read the light novel/knows about it; is this a harem? On the promotional artwork designed explicitly with the deliberate impression of representing the show to potential consumers, the girls are front and center, while the main character is kinda-sorta able to be seen way in the back. Almost like they're saying "PLEASE DON'T NOTICE HIM". It's clear what this story is going to be about. |
 |
| some random guesses/translation... "Team E": senpai & houhai relationship. Blue hair interested in everyone? MC tied to everyone but he likes red hair? Lonely Club Advisor. Oh school magic battle club trope confirmed? He only has one male classmate.  |
| kyoani pls don't let this be more moe blob with action thrown in for fun. |
| Hayami Saori, Uchida Maaya, Uesaka Sumire and Shimono Hiro, sounds like fun. |
| yay shimono hiro!!! <3 FOR THE FIRST TIME IT'S NOT KIRITO OR NATSUKI HANAE |
| Looks like i finally found something to look forward for the Winter season. |
 |
| Looks interesting.. |
| What the heck was that screeching noise starting from 0:44 ? It left my ears itching. |
| The cast looks really great but I'm worried about the LN...it seems really generic and stupid for a Kyoani work. Please don't disappoint me...I'm counting on you, Ishihara... |
omfgplzstop said: >harem because 3 girls on the cover what the fuck "Guys it's not a harem" lol |
|
| > sees the loli front twintails abomination... WUT > sees the series description that sounds even more generic chuuni than kyoukai no kanata was. Yep, passing this one. Teens will eat it up tho. It seems kyoani only does two types of projects - moe SOL or chuuni edgy moe. |
