So for the cast selection, not bad honestly, not bad at least in my honest opinion. And as for the art and sound staff... Its pretty interesting and based on the PV and how I see the artstyle and such, it looks pretty good honestly.

And even if actually doesn't turn out to be THAT good I think it will still be nice looking as well in the OST department, but we'll see around.

I was planning to read the manga a few months ago but the potential of a teacher-student romance bullshit put me off. Now that this is getting an anime adaptation, I might give this series a shot.

Amazon will exclusively stream the series through their Prime Video service in Japan and overseas starting with episode one
I wonder what Amazon saw through this series that made them license this anime for streaming rights? I mean, I can guess why Amazon licensed Kabaneri but this one?

Its not that they picked this one, they have the streaming rights for every anime that comes from the noitaminA block since Kabaneri.

But they have been shit since Battery has been horrible, they took forever to finally put some subs for Fune wo Amu like 2 weeks ago i think.

Amazon licenses all anime from noitaminA? That's news to me. I thought they go through the same process as Funimation, Crunchyroll and Netflix does when it comes to licensing anime per season? In other words, bidding wars.

Well, it's not really a spoiler if someone looks up the characters' description in MAL.

But the story, how do I put it? ...it's pretty f*cked up. But don't get me wrong. It's not that I have problems with what I have mentioned inside the spoiler. It's with one of the characters outside of that relationship and I hate that character. Anyone who have read this manga would know who I am referring to. Also, I really cannot stand one of the other characters who is terrible at judging people.

Just want to say I approve of the seiyuu and the animation looks pretty great except for Mugi looking way older than he looks in the manga. But both Ecchan and Hana-chan look cute so it's all that I would care about. Whether I am gonna actually watch the anime or not is still up for the grabs because deep down I don't really want to go through the same suffering I had to endure while following this manga all over again.

Pretty strange design choice in the end, but after some spoilers, waiting for the show has become even more interesting.

But I still can not understand why this manga adapts studio of postmodern thrillers and action.

It's Kousaka Reina's VA new char, flirting with another girl while crushing on a teacher. That's so Kousaka Reina. (Stop cheating on Kumiko pls)

Anyway, so the main character is a scum? All characters are scums? This is new.

Nobunaga Shimazaki is really present those days, I feel like he already got cast in like at least 3 anime (in 2017) as a main character...good for you Zaki !

Now, I never read the manga but I'm really hyped for this...looks way more mature than most of romance anime...

nope, if you said this just because you've seen the title of assassination classroom in it its just because the design works in Kuzu is done by someone who directed the ending animations of AssClass

I just realized that a few minutes after Iooked over it.
It's the director of White Album 2, so let's hope they adapt it right, cause this is one of my favorite mangas!
