Secretly hoping it's "The Thing", high school edition.

There's only one problem with this.

Is there even anything interesting in Antarctica (outside of laboratories and a possible alien city or ruins)?

Everyone knows there's secret Nazi bunkers down there, from when Norway was occupied and they went down there with ships to look at the Norwegian antarctic territory. Obviously genetic experiments, deadly virus labs and the rocket silo for the Nazi moon base shuttle. /s

ngnl director = instant hype

her previous works have been amazing from a visual level as well

looks like madhouse isnt dead

NGNL isn't really a high benchmark to try and surpass, to be honest.
Also this looks just like another cute girls doing cute things show. Not really my thing.

True as that might be NGNL is the last good madhouse anime, for me that is.

NGNL aside she is one of the best female fdirectors in the industry so her new work always excites me. Being another cgdct is fine since the premise is so unique.
