This looks interesting but I really really hate NTR!

Oh fuck no.

After I did some research on it, apparently, it's not that heavy, if the source that I checked on is correct.

Really? Erhm, could you pm me what happen please? I'd like to prepare myself to at least survive this NTR-ness when I watch this anime. Thank you in advance in case you decide to help me!

Oh fuck!!!!! please no NTR shit =_=

Hmmm idk why but I didn't get the love vibe from him and the the president but the manga isn't that far.

Just read the manga for it. Seem pretty interesting, will watch it definitely.

Hmmm interesting. Very interesting. I would think it's going to be somewhat dark (since it does have the seinen tag) but not sure what to expect. If it's sci-fi maybe more of a psycho-pass kind of feel? That would be cool.

I'm curious as to why the female lead doesn't have a voice actress assigned yet though. Is that just not updated? Or is there a particular reason?

Gonna watch this because of Yuki Kaji that's why. Hoho~!

This looks awesome! And I will watch anything with Kaji Yuki in it so yeah.

Yay more great news! Loved the manga :D

Plot doesn't sound too bad. I'm always up for some post-apocalyptic anime.

Oct 6, 2013 3:16 PM by BatoKusanagi

Wow, same director of Monster.

I'll watch it.

The characters? An abrassive hot blooded typical shounen hero guy,

Oh sounds like a perfect role for KajiKaji :D Will watch because he's in the cast. The looks nice too. Maybe I'll try reading the manga to see what I should expect.

The synopsis of this is really interesting, and that key visual looked pretty good. I guess I'll start reading the LN when enough chapters get translated. It's awesome that Dengeki is having two of their novels adapted, although I'm skeptical about Mahouka, this one seems really interesting, and the director of Monster is working on this as well, this will be fun =)
Now if only a Hakomari adaption could be announced, then I'll be the happiest man alive

Okay this will be interesting, really looking forward to this!

i love the visual, planned to read the novel but not sure where i can read the full version. Watched code breaker, it wasn't very good...but looking forward to watching black bullet!

I'm not familiar with the studio..but I like this better than Mahouka :D

wait, Mahouka is also getting an anime production? hmmm, if that's true, I'll try watching that one too, the art was great and the plot was ok.

Mod Edit: Merged posts. Please do not double post.

Seems way more interesting than Mahouka.I will definitely keep my eyes on Black Bullet.Although im kind of worried about studio.

Been following the manga, and tbh it's kind of generic, but I am definitely going to watch it once it comes out.
