 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 |
| Looking forward to this one. |
 |
| 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. |

| 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 |
  |
| Caught my interest. Yeah, this feels somewhat similar to Gosick, so I have high hopes in this one. |
| 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... |
| I really want to see this anime AAAAAAAAAAAA |
| Apaixonado por jogos e animes. |
| I've never heard about this title, but that synopsis sounds very interesting. |
| From the synopsis, the vibes is similar to Gosick. I really have high hopes for this one. |
| 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. |
