![]() Synopsis Kimizuka Kimihiko is a crisis-magnet. From getting caught up in a crime scene to accidentally witnessing a drug deal, trouble seems to find him around every corner. So it is no surprise when his rather mundane flight suddenly enters a state of emergency with a dire need of a detective onboard. Unfortunately, his attempt at avoiding trouble is foiled by a beautiful girl with silver hair who goes by the codename Siesta. Declaring herself a detective, she unceremoniously drags Kimizuka into the case as her assistant. That incident spelled the beginning of an adventure around the globe that went beyond his wildest imagination. Putting their lives on the line, the two took down criminal organizations, prevented disasters, and saved thousands. But the curtain closed to their epic journey with Siesta's untimely death three years later. Resolving to live an ordinary high school life this time, Kimizuka spends a year maintaining a low profile. However, as fate would have it, a girl with an uncanny resemblance to Siesta comes crashing into his life, threatening to throw his peaceful days into disarray.

looks interesting especially with the same person that did the Uzaki character designs on board ![]() |
Yup was expecting this after KonoRano rankings but never this fast. It came right after yen press picked up the LN. The visuals differ quite a bit from the original but still I'm looking forward to it ![]() |
Are you kidding me? Studio is nahh Voice characters are not good Why why The staff is not good I'm disappointed right now 💔💔💔 ![]() |
Damn, they really aren't holding back today lol. Much to my happiness though :) Genres give me a Hyouka vibe honestly but the synopsis seems to suggest something a little different. Whatever the case, I'm interested. Decent staff and cast too. ![]() #Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni |
Gosick but the characters meet in a near-death situation ![]() |
The character designs look super slick and subtle, so I'm hoping they can translate that to animation well enough. The synopsis is just interesting enough for me to want to check this out. ![]() |
Omae wa mou, shindeiru ![]() |

Premise makes it look like it's worth a shot but staff and studio are a huge turn off. Studio with barely any track record and what they have is crap, director that never directed anything and writer that never worked on anything decent. ![]() Ii tenki desu ne... |

The scores for those series are only because of the source material, the animation aspect for all of these are good and ENGL is a mini studio based off Kadokawa so while it’s new it has decent people working in it. Can’t really say anything for the writer and director but usually as long as they stay with the source material it’ll be fine ![]() |

Kemono Michi lost its steam in every aspect, where the only good animation cut was in like episode 2. And Uzaki-chan used CGI background characters. Nothing praiseworty. ![]() |
The artstyle seems simplified. Its difficult to emulate Umibouzo designs. The staff is underwhelming. Its from a mediocre studio. Seems they sure of this one, because its too fast to got an anime adaption. ![]() |

Studio ENGI has only been alive for 1 or 2 years so their just starting up. You should see MAPPA, they made trash shit without the help of other studios. Look at them now. ![]() |
