The red hair girl just has to spoil it huh? With her magical powers mumbo jumbo. And here I was hoping an anime about quasi Nazi Germany invading Poland or just WWII in general. GG.

@tsubasalover *1 October, also staff has been announced: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-09-02/shumatsu-no-izetta-anime-4th-promo-video-reveals-staff-cast/.106034

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PV looks and sounds great. Plus the Magi/Sound of the Sky script-writer/series composition is in charge of series composition and scripts, makes up for the lacklustre director at least.

EDITED because its pretty much useless now that Tsubasa added it in the topic


Man Ajia-do... thats a studio i've never thought i'd see here again and forgot it existed.
Also its interesting to see that there's actually credits for military directions.


I'm pretty excited for this but this could go pretty bad tho.

It's pretty rare that it ends up being good when they are late about the cast and staff. >_>

A setting that takes place in WW2 but with a twist of magic huh? What caught my eye is they've even hired people for Military Direction. Based on the PV, they really researched about the Nazi military and as a military enthusiast, this anime is like an early fucking Christmas gift for me xD

That PV though....Holy shit, am I fucking excited for this anime. I just saw the German army with their Panzer IV tanks and those Bf.109 warplanes. Also, two cute witch girls. Yuri?!


Oh my god, my expectations are so damn high right now but I gotta be cautious because I've never even heard of the studio before.

So it's set in Vorarlberg and Tyrol.
I was already hyped, but that makes it even better.

Don't know much about the director and slightly sceptical of the script writer, but the rest of staff and cast looks pretty good.

And for anyone wondering, the flag says " I am brave and piout (devout) " (although the German is slightly incorrect in terms of grammar, but not terrible)

Cover and clip rather suspicious, agree. But I would have looked at least a couple of episodes for Hayami

In case anyone missed it: the anime is not actually set during WW2 it's a fictional war.

The fact that KanaHana is over here just makes everyone squeal, and good gif btw. This fits soooo much.

That's how great she is.
However, even when she is an excellent voice actress, the rest of the cast is also very good.

I do agree on the second statement you said, imo they did selected a good cast per say. Hell, I think staff wise is rather interesting as well per say. At least imo.

Not even a slightest of interest. Not with this mediocre cast and bland promotional video. *Adds to Plan-to-Watch list*

Now that you mention it, I don't know nothing about the studio who will animate this.
The visuals of the preview looks good, so I will have faith with this.

Well the studio is one thing, and based on what I saw... Jesus christ they barely made anything after 2007 based on what I saw here, at least TV series wise.

But I find it really interesting with the staff's selection. Mostly the series composition/script, character designer, sound director and I guess the director is more of an... eh? I'm not too sure, but I am interested mostly in the series composition since he wrote the script for Kuroshitsuji and at least Book of Circus which is pretty much his best one, Heavy Object would be another one... Series composition for Accel World and it was pretty nice at least, So Ra No Wo To as well... I mean, I like most of the stuff at least.

Oh german language and references will be big in this anime, also saw the alternative symbol and empire of the German Reich xD

And this new country is like a big Liechtenstein between Switzerland and Austria^^

Anyway can't for this series since the new PV looks awesome.

RIP show, before it even started. This dude rivals Mari Okada in "holy shit why are you still writing you are so bad at this" department.



Also disappointed they chickened out with real historic setting and going for AU instead. The dialogue is already anime as hell ("HIMEEEEE SAMAAAAAA")

Modern history shouldn't be mixed with fantasy, there's almost always no suspension of disbelief. If it's sufficiently far enough back in time, like Akatsuki no Yona it can be tolerable.

Don't like the character designs either.

Also there are few things more cringe than quasi-German speech in anime. Almost dropped Suisei no Gargantia on episode 1 because they called an attack by a German-like name. Gets my acid reflux going.
