This anime really reminds me of Cross Ange, which I hope I am wrong. At least the musical score will be good.

The PV has no animation whatsoever. I wouldn't say that is a great one.

I meant the visuals, you're right though. There is no animation. But you know I personally think the visuals look good enough.

Taku Iwasaki is in charge of the OST? That is an incentive to watch this. Also, if this is based in Joan of Arc, I hope we will have a dope Gilles de Rais too, or better, a waifu Gilles.

I though people who love cross ange are going to love these types of anime

And Mahou Shoujo Site is masterpiece. One of the most entertaining show in this season

I agree, but in the end pretty stationary-visuals always better than when they're animated. So, we will see.

Do not be like that. Maybe this one will be the next masterpiece for you.

Well I don't exactly dislike Shin Itagaki but I think we'll have to see.

There was literally no animation for the PV tbh despite the designs looking cool and the visuals too.

Eh, I'm so used to yuri-bait and I've grown out of harems that I again see the next harem as a new yuri-all star. How can this be cured?

The only good thing that can possibly come from this is that we get to hear a Japanese person pronounce the name 'Philippite Valois Bourgogne'.

It's by the same author as Oda Nobuna no Yabou. However, the studio that is producing this is really mediocre.

Something tells me that this will end up being a train wreck, especially with that particular director...

It's a shame. I really want a proper Jeanne D'arc adaptation...

Looking at the lineup for Fall 2018 right now(it will change once more shows gets added there when announced), it looks like its going to be weakest season for this year. But there are few that im interested in.

Boogiepop ( it says 2018 so i presume its going to be in the fall season)
Radiant
Bloom into You
SSSS Gridman
Hinomaruzumou and the PA Works original anime

Im keeping my expectations low for the slime isekai anime and Release the Spyce

Radiant, Bloom into You and SSSS Gridman are pretty much what im looking for right now that are confirmed for Fall.

But yeah, the season is far and theres still lot of stuff to be announced and some that are at least confirmed 2018 like Boogiepop, Double Decker, Goblin Slayer, RErideD, YU-NO and Zoku Owarimonogatari.

Its just that at this moment, right now, its looking pretty meh

Look very good, but death flag on the heroine already confirmed? I mean, is Jeanne d'Arc, so it can't be a happy ending unless is just the same world setting and characters but a different story. I will be sad if the cute mc die. >_>

Yeah, he's a good animator and a decent episode director - his OP/ED animations (e.g. Senyuu OP, Bakemonogatari OP2, Hanamaru ED4) are always so energic and fun. His work a series director though is kinda lacking, even excluding Berserk, because that one had a lot more problems behind the scenes. My guess is that this show will end up like Bento where the only good episode was the first one.
