That is a really complicated design for a main character; just imagine all the resources the hair animation will take up. It looks pretty good though, and it seems like the source material is decent as well. Could be fun.

@EcchiGodMamster This is not Female Vs Female Fighting anime. Not to mention the fact that it is strange to see how such a fanatic of uniqueness for the uniqueness like you, are so hyped about this show. Or the only thing you are interested in is only All-Female Cast?

@detarameMAL Yes, if you are going to make a show with very rich animation and realistic hair.
