Love a concept like this, but if it's gonna focus on anything other than the robot battles and possible building them I doubt I'll like it. Especially if it's romance or edgy shit.

Concept seems similar to Robotic;Notes, might be interesting. Not a fan of the Chinese involvement though. xD

Well, its just a Chinese manufacturing company who's involved and asked for it, its not like the usual shitty chinese studios like Emon and co. are touching it.

Could be interesting.

The concept also interest me as well.

It'll also be interesting to see how Yasutaka Yamamoto directs this given the concept. PV looks alright.

I don't like that style of art in the pv, it's missing a layer of shading/tone/detail or something.
It's like it's copy pasted onto the background.

I like the idea with the "robots" but the art seems kinda spiritless. [Megane Anime?]

I don't really mind the art.

I'm kinda getting fujobait vibes from the two guys with glasses though (not that that'll stop me from watching it).

Eh, we'll see.

We meet again, Onoda.

Looks a bit too drama-heavy for me. Also the drones are called KAKA?

China almost never does anything good, but this time I'm gonna give it a try.

It feels like an interesting concept, but it doesn't really offer me anything to feel stoked about. Will give it a try nonetheless.
