So ANN announced that Silver Link will animate this series.
I'm pretty skeptical about this. Since Silver Link can be sometimes really good and sometimes horrible. What are your thoughts about this? Will it be good or bad?

Silver Link is perfect for those kinds of shows. They did Fate/kaleid, Rakudai and strike the blood. And this show look similar.

I think Silver Link is perfect for this one

I guess it's fine, it's a comedy for the most part. Rakudai was more serious and probably that's why it was not that good.

Rakudai was great, imo. Well it was directed by Shin Oonuma. Did some amazing work and is also working on Kaleid. It would be great if this series also gets directed by him. Silver Link is good in adapting manga series.

I don't know if i'm the only one, but i really think that Rakudai was just not good enough. They skipped so much stuff, but it was obviously inevitable. And the artstyle in manga is better, and that's my main discontent, just simply don't see a point to take a great original (might it be LN or manga) and make it worse. Can remember strike the blood which had very good graphics, but the story was mediocre. Fate Kaleid is just not my type so i'll skip it. Well there was Baka to Test which was great, but that was a long time ago.

In my opinion SilverLink is guarantee of good standard. All their animes I seen are high in my ranking but none of them is in 10-9/10 I think.

I newer read any of the novels they adapted but at least in Taimadou Gakuen 35 Shiken Shoutai they really skiped lot of content, because it was too obvious even for non reader, but it was still great show.

Oh damn, it looks so good. The art and visual wise it looks pretty good. I hope the staff doesn't fuck this up.

Was waiting for the first PV and can say it looks pretty good/decent. Again can say that the story is interesting, but simply not enough to fully judge. And i liked Rin from the start and especially that quite early scene (no spoilers) =/

Just saw this from a friend of mine, these designs looks pretty good although I don't expect them to stay consistent with it unless I can be wrong on that.

I'm really worried about the high chance of slapstick this is going to have.

"After many generations, the five swords eventually became a group which corrected problematic students, and the academy started proactively accepting such students in order to correct them."

I at least hope the MC isn't a pussy and actually stands up for himself.

Rest easy, he's not a coward, he actively rebels the oppression that the committee forces upon the male groups. Though I can't guarantee he will be likeable, don't quite remember his personality but I think it was pretty normal for the most part.

Lol yeah, iirc he doesn't have any qualms about fighting anyone at the school except for one person (I think). Glad they stayed pretty faithful to the art though, I loved Machiavellianism's art

I wanted to like him I really did, especially since he stood up for himself but he just came across as a dick.

Lol yeah, unfortunately he's more on the cheeky, arrogant side of the spectrum. I'm not a huge fan of him either, though that might change if the manga ever goes into a backstory for him to give some sort of justification, though I'm not really holding out much hope of that happening

How can this be labeled as a "shounen" anime when all the males are sissy cunts who are all literally oppressed by the females and forced to cross-dress? This femdom girly ego-stroking bullshit looks like trash. Definitely not going to pick this one up unless there is some legitimate manliness in this (the douchey MC doesn't cut it) and all the girls aren't all total bitches.
